Right smack-dab in the middle of the largest docks- right where even your 16 foot rod can't quite reach. You'll have to get out and walk the docks to really catch anything...

I heard that after the fact- you know my mind runs backwards sometimes. I have a hard enough time with cameras pointed at me, speaking at them is worse. That would be my next purchase- a camera with an external mic jack. This camera doesn't have one.

My dad is 72. It's easy for us to identify. We'll pray for him.

FLY TYING & CASTING December 13th @ 2pm Ages 12 and up Hello Everyone: We will be hosting a special fishing related program at the Hatchery on Saturday, December 13th. The first part of the program will be teaching how to tie flies. Whether you are a beginner or a novice, we will have something new for you to learn about the art of tying flies to catch fish. The flies you tie you get to take home. The second half of the program will take you outdoors to learn to cast a fly rod. Don't worry we will not have hooks on the line, but pratice yarn. You will learn a few tips on how to cast under different conditions and how to make that cast that makes the fish (trout or sunfish) want to try out your flie. This program is free, but reservations are required. For reservations or information call (417) 334-4865 ext 0. Happy Holidays! John Miller Naturalist Program Supervisor Shepherd of the Hills Conservation Center 483 Hatchery Road Branson MO 65616 (417) 334-4865 ext 0 John.Miller@mdc.mo.gov

Very frustrated with the quality of the video online. Everything I try doesn't better the quality. Anyone- any suggestions? Made with iMovie. I have Final Cut Express coming this week.

Interesting... I'll have to look into it.

My mistake. The week I have booked is July 11-18. Just as good if not better fishing. I have 4 cabins left.

I will... if I remember. Remind me, PZ

Believe it or not, Naknek River Camp's schedule is filling fast for the 2009 season. http://naknekrivercamp.com Johnson's rates are SO low, anglers are jumping all over the ability to fish in Alaska for less than $3200 including airfare. Johnson's rate is $1995 this year for the week stay which includes lodging, meals and guide service for 6 days. If you want to fish the day you arrive and the day you leave, boats are available to fish on your own. That's 8 days of great Alaska fishing. There's an option for flyouts for $2595. This is a really good deal. I've paid between $350 and $400 for most fly outs I've done there so $300 per flyout is a bargain. Flyout options- Battle Creek, Morraine Creek, Ugashik Narrows and many others. He even has a fish-on-your-own rate of $1495. I'm hosting a trip for the week of July 4-11, 2009. I have several spots still open that week. I'm not sure what my summer/fall schedule will be but I know I'll be up there that week. It's prime sockeye and king salmon season with thousands of sockeye running by the lodge everyday. Kings are in prime too. We travel up in Big Creek and fly fish for up to 60 pounders. Deposits are due at the first of the year so save some Christmas cash.

He's writing a book. He's fine.

I know you too well! Thanks.

So be it.

Bill and I talked. We don't think it was a good idea promoting or giving people the idea of heading to LOZ for the sole purpose to get off on private docks and fish. I didn't think of what could happen given the number of people who would watch this video and the repercussions that could come from it. I would imagine, say, if the local paper up there or the local chamber of commerce got ahold of it and broadcast that a fishing website is promoting this, we'd be in deep dodo. So I'm going to pull the video and apologize again. It's been a good and informative discussion though.

Fishhand- you bring up an unfortunate possibility. People in the limelight- in the ministry, whether he or she are celebs or just shepherd a small group, are attacked 100x more than the average believer. If satan and his imps can bring a leader down, then he does more damage to the Gospel than anything. It's common military practice. Not saying this to give excuse to anyone in sin or for the sin. The more a man in blessed, the more responsibility is given plus he is held to a higher standard. That's why Christ got on the religious rulers much more than anyone else. A leader, whether it's a priest, pastor or elder, has much more to fear to "come clean" of any sin in his life, especially one that- well- half of society now believes is "really" wrong. Most are thrown under the bus with no opportunity for rehabilitation and that's exactly what the church is supposed to do- heal and forgive. That's why so many leaders never confess but continue till they get caught, run away or kill themselves.

When I attended school in Dallas, we used to go down to the red light district and the gay discos to talk to people after much prayer and intercession and we saw God do some pretty cool things. But for me it was an eye-opener, being from a small SE Kansas town. There's a place and time to be sent and I'm not sure this is one. But you might have something... I understand what you're saying in reference to "pastors and preachers" but anyone who has the anointing and leading of God can go and minister. Doesn't have to just be the "professionals".

Had a great time. Fishing is fishing. Sorry I missed MC. I video'ed Duane cast and strip and I was going to post it BUT I didn't check my camera lens- had a couple of spots on it. When will I ever learn to check the lens on my cameras. I miss more shots. Next time. They running a ton of water this morning!! But it looks like they're already starting to drop it.

This is what I didn't want this to turn into. That's why I asked not to use the words freak and such. I shouldn't have posted it in the first place because I should have know it would head in this direction ultimately. Joe is right is some respects. People with this problem are all around us. They need help and prayers, not our condemnation. All of us are sinners and no one has the right to throw stones. The point of the post is to make aware of the situation because of the possible exposure to kids and adults and to try to help law enforcement officials bring charges to that they move on out of our parks and trails. We can preach and quote scientist, philosophers and the Bible all day on the forum, but this avenue of communication is impersonal at best and this situation warrants more than debate. It requires caring people ministering to those who want to be free of this oppression. Alot of these guys feel trapped and helpless and ashamed and want to be free but to do so means telling someone who does care to get the help they need. Usually it's a Pastor or counselor but if it's the wrong Pastor you get the old heave-hoe cause alot of laymen don't know how to handle someone with this affliction. Bottom line, sin, any sin, keeps us from a true and honest and open relationship with God. It takes a truly repentant and sorrowful heart and a bent knee AND people around us who have the heart of God, not a book in their hand using it as a hammer, to bring us out of sin and put on on a road of healing and an ongoing relationship with the Lord.
