That's a drone

I bet the 3-S happens more than you think, there has got to be a breeding population of loins in Mo. if they can hold up anywhere iron co. should be a good habitat.

I back packed that area when I was young in the fall for 3 consecutive years, if they can live anywhere in Missouri and seldom be seen it's in that area.

I use a double uni because it's easy, the FG looks tough to tie. I have learned to not over tighten the uni. I'll try the FG again see what happens

My uncle lives in Alabama, I guess they are already there.

I was flinging arrows a lot when Doug was just getting started painting, he had a class I want to got to so bad, but I never did. Maybe I just don't want it bad enough.

I love faces, the only thing about his work I don't care for are the posses are highly controlled, much like the artists of old. I love it when someone is captured just doing life. I understand where it comes from, there weren't always cameras. I'm still stuck in charcoal land, someday I would like to move to oils. I really enjoy vine charcoals for the first layer, they are real for giving, it makes it fun. I have a tough time cloistering myself for the time, Doug Hall is a local well know artist and outdoorsman in my area. He has learned to make a living at it. He is a great guy too. He lives in a log cabin he built himself. If you ever find yourself in the SW corner of Missouri you should look him up, I would bet you would get along well. I think he has bifocals too https://showmetheozarks.com/2018/11/02/doug-hall-an-artists-roots/

And tasty, do we still eat the fish we catch?

My uncle has the same issue, he got that surgery, and it helped for several years but he is back to glasses, they are a lower power. You are a great artist, if it gets tough you could switch over to impressionism instead of realism and still be great (that's an art joke no one will get). I could not do transitions either they jack with my peripheral vision too much, I would rather just look over or under the line. Off topic, have you heard of an artist by the name of David Gray? www.davidgrayfineart. I don't care for the nude painting, it seems like art has to go there, I don't understand, anyway I like many of his Alla Prima studies. He is the reason I don't paint😃I love his work and envy his talent....someday I'll have to time to practice more.

I would like some polarized bifocals for fishing but I know I would drop them in the lake.

I am an industrial maintenance man, I have been wearing bifocals to tie my line and work with small wiring and the like for over 10 yrs. Some locations do not lend themselves well to bifocals so I carried a pair of +2s for junction boxes that are too high or too low. Recently one of our techs suggested getting a bifocal in the top and in the bottom so I did. These are working pretty well for me and my neck. Maybe this will help some of you too. I hate glasses I never had to wear them until I turned 45 and one evening I had trouble tying a jig, no matter what I did I couldn't make myself see the line.

When I see this I think about fish tacos

Is it too early to think about the next trip?

Looks like a little rainbow?

I don't know but I sure would love to have the marinade recipe for those medallions wow really good! I hope they weren't marinated in the vienna sausage juice.😆

I would like the thank Phil Lilly for this forum, without out it I would never have met all of you. I sure hope we can get together again. Thank you sir !!

What a day and a great bunch of people. There were a few of us who where willing to get in a strange van with people from the Internet, but it all worked out. How about the food ! Oh my goodness you all made this gathering way better than I could have imagined ! Here are a few pictures sure wish I could have got a better picture of BilletHead fly fishing, it was so neat, I might have to try that sometime.

I wore a respirator the last time I had to deal with mold like that. Bad stuff

Yes

Also I have an extra kayak if someone needs it, let me know.

There was a group putting in at horse creek at 1:30 when we got there. I spoke with my family that floated it last weekend, they said they did some dragging but it wasn't real bad, also they said any fork you come to go left for what that's worth. It's still on as far as I'm concerned. See you all at HL Kerr between 7 and 8 or so. Here are a couple pictures from the Y bridge and Kerr access

Fish should be easy to find😁

So the word is that the river is really low, I am going to run down and check it out, take some pics and check out our transportation. I will let you all know what I find.

Maybe 10 yes I think 1pm bring what you want, I'll bring something too.
