  1. A lot of folks use sculpins. An old lady told me a long time ago to use a dead one otherwise a live one will just hide under a rock. She had quite a stringer of fish. Norfork Adam circa 1970’s.
  2. Switched tackle bags to look for bass. I couldn’t get out until the rain quit. I was sitting in meetings just jonesing to be out fishing while it was rainy and overcast. I got to my first spot and caught a couple like this one. They were busting minnows when I got there. Then the sun popped out and the wind died. The next 3 hours were a sightseeing tour. Needed some 6 pound flouro so I stopped at bass pro. The only kind they had bass pro excel. The cheapest flouro on the shelf. 9.99 for 200 yards but I need it bad. I’ll be out early tomorrow.
  3. My experience is the difficult part is finding them not getting them to bite. But weather is a big player. Cloudy and rainy is best.
  4. It’s up and down 😆
  5. Pictures? Do they strike hard and fight hard?
  6. I’ve never used bait for trout. Sitting and soaking bait doesn’t appeal to me. People chum with corn but I don’t think browns go for that.
  7. Even German brown ones do😁
  8. Same story on the Frying pan. You gotta use mysis shrimp or nothing. I used a bugger on a sinking line and smoked em. Caught em on surf and turf too.
  9. Got out mid day in the rain and heavy fog. I love that kind of weather for fishing. 2 bites, 1 fish. I forgot to add, that you need to take off 2 to 3/10ths of a pound for the silicone portion of my net that I can’t clear when the fish is in it.
  10. I saw that one. I want some for the rest of the lake
  11. The one I posted somewhat shows depth. I know it’s not exact but I thought there were some for the rest of the lake.
  12. I was asking for the old topo maps like the one I posted for the rest of the lake. I thought there were additional maps like that for the rest of the lake. I’m looking for old structure not about where to run my boat.
  13. There used to be some for the whole lake.
  14. I’ve seen a lot of snakes this week. Box turtles too. I sure hate seeing them on the roads.
  15. Heck I hope I didn’t jinx myself with that comment 😆
  16. Got out this morning at 5:30. Heavy fog and it felt like a big fish day. Fished for 2 hours. Nothing, nada. I think I finally wore out my spot. I hit a backup I’ve had luck at before. Nothing. I’ll get out and try and find some new ones. Keep in mind I’m looking for big browns not stockers. Might go catch some stockers just to feel better about myself. 😆
  17. Looked like a flock of geese were on my deck😂
  18. When I was here a couple weeks ago a bunch of the trout I caught were pooping moss. Lots of it too.
  19. Got out today Monday 6/6 for 3 hours for an early lunch break. Lots of stockers and then they cranked it up from 100 mwh to 150. It got all trashy so I left. Nothing picture worthy.
  20. With all due respect the Meramec, huzzah, both Pineys and the Gasconade get a lot of traffic. A whole lot!
  21. In all seriousness. The places I fish are already getting hammered. No need for additional market campaigning.
  22. Like Andy’s breading😉
