Both Brandon's in our party have been warned for the rash of crap they will likely be receiving. I mean I pretty much heckle and ramble non stop the entire time anyways so they are used to it. Still haven't thrown me in yet, but I've pressed my luck a few times. WHAAAATTT!!! LOL

A bunch of us will be down Thursday from my crew. We only have Brandon's boat though, but not sure of a head count... Oh and Ray Ray is making ZuppaTuscana soup and bread for one of the nights. It's pretty fantastic, better than olive gardens lol

Well dang, was hoping to find some down that way. If any of ya hear of any between now and then let me know.

I mean who goes anywhere without their bottom shelf, $1.99 used to be a buck, made from sawdust, have to let them sit out to get chewy, cheap posterior iced oatmeal cookies! I got you covered on a ride buddy, can tow your boat as well.

Tagging @BigHandsRob so he can find his way here.

I've been doing my homework lol. If the hogs are anything like the deer then they gotta be thick down there. Open season on yotes too. I'm bringing my toys with me to play in the dark. Oh snap a new member appears lol @BigHandsRob Haha

Gonna be even worse this year if Eric can find me a place to go hunt at night! Would love to get me an Arkansas hog.

Quick BBQ Thursday night sounds good QB. I think most of my crews coming down Thursday possibly Wednesday night if we fish through the night into Thursday. We're an easy bunch though food wise and you know us fat kids always have plenty of snacks and can grab and eat on the go if we're fishing or hunting. Wife even got me a snackle box

I went in 2019 and was a great trip. The Pans a nice central point for hitting a bunch of other water. I tried to recap in my thread here and if you need any more info just ping me

I think we know the same guy! LOL I have the same basspro net as John, its deep and has held up well to lots of abuse and lots of jerk bait and hooks. I do still have my big boy net that Duane gifted me. I do still wear both bets when I fish at night. I just have two magnets setup and run the smaller "butterfly" net on top which can be a pain, but that is the price for chasing sea monsters. If I'm fishing with friends we usually just opt one person as the big boy net holder and they are johnny on the spot if anyone hooks a donkey. I will say a couple knuckleheads on the white took my big net out and say its now cursed down there on that water system. I claim operator error

I've always been more leary of the 2 legged predators... scary as much time as some of us spend in the woods.

Eric I'll either have my old Durango, or the new Yukie... either can tow and are ready to go.

I will bring desserts and some muffins and stuff for breakfast. I'll bring a cheesecake again unless there's any other requests? I usually bring a case or two of water and some yuengling. I've joined Les with my French press so I'll be making coffee... albeit slowly and not to his abilities lol. I can pitch in wherever else we need too.

Sad 🐼... again if anything changes or if you need a ride or a place to stay just give me a shout buddy. Gonna have to come out east too see ya this year instead lol.

If you guys can't figure it out, have Mike text me. We'll get him going.

Yes John gets all the credit for my Barren Fork fish lol. Also about killed me climbing that hill twice, and once in the snow... that was dumb,

Barren Fork is easy if you don't mind hiking. I hit 7 of 9 creeks this year, have nfow and 11pt left for the gold slam. Nice job and it's very rewarding chasing those wild trout.

Fantastic as usual buddy! Way to go boys.

When you do this please video for us. Seriously though, cash in whatever points you have to come. It's a heck of a good time, with lots of eating, drinking, fellowship, occasional singing, and lots of lying about fish stories.

I'm in +2 with BigHandsRob and @BrandonSTL. Still waiting to hear from Geno... All of us will be down Thursday thru Sunday as well.

@trythisonemv @MNtransplant@fmcbrandon @BrandonSTL @LittleRedFisherman @FishnDave @Travis Swift @Ryan Miloshewski Let's get this party started... Rick you will be missed, I will drop a cheesecake for ya when you get back... I'll likely be down Thursday night. Big hands Rob, and FmcBrandon are both in. Waiting to hear on Geno and Ray Ray... John if you need a pick up from airport or a ride just let me know. My house is always open to ya as well if you need a place to pre game at. We'll likely all carpool so @Daryk Campbell Sr that offer is open to you as well as for any others that don't mind being serranaded by the silky soft voice of drunk rednecks on the way to Arkansas. For those of you on the fence, just figure out your schedule and come. By far one of my most favorite trips of the whole year that I look forward to the moment I leave Mile's place... Even if the fishing stinks (which it wont) the people and food are what it's all about

Tis true I may have a thing for Yuengling... It's for sale in Texas now as well. They are branching out after partnering with Coors. Just remember you can't buy alcohol on Sunday in Arkansas... well unless you find a shady liquor store and promise to buy every case of yuengling they have.

Tell him congrats! I seen he's picked up the knack from his dad on how to put nice smallies and bass in the boat! Super awesome buddy. I know you're a proud dad as you should be!

Way to go buddy! Looks like you had a stellar trip, way to get it done!

Awesome trip man, and I'm glad you were able to get into them. Fishing with dad is always excellent time spent making some great memories. Happy belated birfday too!
