  1. That place hasn't been the same in 5 years or so. A real shame too. I used to go there all the time before they put that hideous pipe in below the main bridge.
  2. Skeerrtty cat
  3. They were on it last weekend. Zara puppy
  4. Thanks but I’ll have to pass. I get 3 weeks PTO and I use it mostly with my family. Which always involves fishing. Except tomorrow, heading to Taney. 😁 I caught a yellow fin in Maui. Drug me around the boat for 45 minutes but I got it.
  5. The second guys is the better fisherman...............He caught one that was educated a little first.
  6. I was wondering where ya been. That's some nice action!!!
  7. I'll let you know tomorrow. And Friday and Saturday and Sunday
  8. I think it's 10 cents per gallon.
  9. That doesn't get great reviews, Wrench.
  10. I need to do that soon according to the dr. as I've been putting it off for a few years. I don't want to waste PTO on it.
  11. Would grass carp eat lily pads?
  12. The other thread on here said it was. Better UT the welds.
  13. You don't want the fly to hit bottom and sink out of sight either. A lot of times shrimp hang onto turtle grass just above the muck and that's what you want the fly to do.
  14. That bottom fly caught 9 bones last time out I think. I don’t think we fished much water a foot deep. More like 6-8 inches.
  15. Please note the great state of Missouri quarter. 😎
  16. Peas have those prions too. Just sayin.
  17. Take some pics to post up.
  18. Nothing on the James don’t waste your time.
  19. Sorry. Don’t kill the messenger. 😁
  20. Gavin is correct. This box has caught bones, tarpon redfish and snook morning n Louisiana Florida Bahamas Mexico and Cozumel. All on the same loom is 9 weight. Most people don’t realize the flats are not just sand but lava rock covered in muck with sticky monkey dodo all over.
  21. It wasn't the fly size it's the rocks. After I would fight a fish the leader would be so beat up we had to put a new on. Literally chewed up.
  22. Median daily flow at Hazelgreen is around 150 CFS this time of year. Running close to 1500 today. High and muddy would be my guess.
  23. A lot of books and mags talk about real long leaders. I've been using the same setup for years with no problems. I had the same hybrid setup on my 9 weight in Cozumel for bones a few years ago and the guide laughed and said "okay, we'll try it". Due to language barrier I couldn't find out why he was dogging it. I had caught 100's of fish with it. Turns out they use 20 pound minimum for tippet due to the scraggly rocks. Had the first one on and off in 10 seconds. He laughed at me while putting on the heavy tippet.
  24. 5 weight for tail water trout I run a 7' Luck Dog tapered leader from Feathercraft with 2.5-4' of tippet material. Whatever looks right when I'm pulling it off the spool. For hybrids I use a 9 weight with a 4' section of 14 pound and a 3' section of 10 pound. I can turn over anything with that setup. https://www.feather-craft.com/feather-craft-lucky-dog-leader
