  1. I knew a lady who was worried about an injured owl she found on the side of the road. In her infinite wisdom, she figured it needed to be put down, but didn't want to do the deed herself, so she placed the bird in her stand up freezer over night. Well in the morning the owl was still alive and kicking, so she call a conservation agent to pick it up. Oh this woman and her husband are educators. They are the people that teach others about tree hugging and guns are bad stuff like that🤗
  2. I might have to remedy that, I've had my nose to the grind stone for a couple years now.
  3. Thank you for your advice !
  4. Very nice !
  5. I have been wear (when not in cheap boot chest waders) my old merrel barefoot runners, they are pretty darn good as far as fit, but over the years of creek water and sun they have delaminated, they are an expensive choice for dedicated water shoes. Thank you all, I have some things to try now
  6. Everyone has been great about sharing info here and I do as well, unless a situation like this comes up.
  7. Sorry for the vague location, I made a few calls and got private river access, the owner asked me not to let world know. It is well away from any public access. Anyway I got my river walleye x 2 from a kayak. And a couple decent smallies. I'm pretty dang happy about it. They were right on the 20" mark ! I saw spoonbill, beaver, eagles. It was a great day !
  8. Nice report sounds like fun.
  9. Question for those of us who find out feet in the creek from time to time. I have always used and old pair of tennis shoes to wade in. You always have problems, rocks, laces coming undone, de lam of soles etc. I am looking for a new idea/or an old one I guess. I recently found some neoprene booty like things, similar to diving boots only they have soles. It seems like a good deal. What do you all think? The water is down so there is a lot of walking, a couple rocks in your shoe can be a pain in a couple hundred yards.
  10. That can't be it because, they would be balding and have excessive ear hair📪
  11. It was probably a beaver slapping it's tail. Besides I thought bigfoot left in the spaceship with the 6 million dollar man. Who remembers that episode😃
  12. Throw that jigging spoon, it will work well on the retrieve. Let it drop for half a second (if it will get that far before they wack it) You can work it like a walking bait back to the boat, it looks just like a fish trying to get away. I have not caught striper doing that but I have caught many other species.
  13. Not sure but above there you will drag a lot
  14. South and north of Shelvin Rock. This water is low so working ones way down and back is a pretty decent work out. It was a gorgeous day ! Started at 8am out by 5:30 or so. It seemed like every piece of cover had a goggle eye under it, I caught at least 10 this picture is of the largest. They really liked the green pumpkin hula stick. Ended up boating two quality small mouth one had to be 3.5lbs my ruler said 18.5 inches, the other was 14.5". I also hooked a big carp that broke me off after a wonderful run. There are deer and turkey everywhere, I even saw a spoon bill in one small area, it looked like it was 5ft long. Anyway great for me, I'm probably done for a while, time to be responsible again.
  15. Well I got to Delaware town access earlier this time about 8:30am. I went down stream to have a look. Ventured just beyond blue hole, all the banks and lay-downs looked fishy, but no takers. I did hook a small bass early but it got off at the boat, around 12" I'd guess. Then on the way back working the shaded bank with the Ned, I fooled one. It was over 18" At least I didn't get skunked. It was a beautiful day.
  16. Yes I like it here, I have a YouTube channel that I haven't added to in a few years and no fb, I do have an Instagram I just look at. This is my social media
  17. Yes mine still works well, I have never linked it to my lowrance and I do not care for the foot pedal, if you are busting banks the foot pedal sucks, but for off shore fishing it works well. I have owned mine 6 years. If it had a decent foot pedal and a dual imaging transducer it would be perfect. It is an 80lb thrust on a 2004 deep V 17 Hope that helps
  18. Dang dude, Im going with you next time😄
  19. Oh my goodness !!
  20. Going south and back next time, I had a follower of decent size, I think it was a walleye but I hate to say, 18+ inches for sure.
  21. It was nice to meet you, thank you for the advice.
  22. It was leg day due to low water. Paddled and waded just beyond Wilson's creek, caught 9 bass of 3 species and 2 goggle eye. Nothing to brag about accept a beautiful day. The bass were small 9" to 13" no walleye😪
  23. for sure
  24. It's not long enough to let me walk around the boat
