  1. A few of us went to Busch for the St. Louis urban trout fishing experience at one of the catch and release lakes. I had a particularly good few hours. Everybody caught some, but I got on a spot that must have been loaded with em. Relatively nice sized fish around 14 inches. Great afternoon weather and my brother even fished in a tee shirt. If there were riffles on the water they bit, if not, no action. Just like Taney. It was nice to get out. I wish I could get down to Taney for the get together but I just can't. Oh well. Merry Christmas!!!!!! SIO3.
  2. Good luck my friend, I've been there. SIO3
  3. Hey Cajun. There is a free ramp down the road from the state park. If you went past the state park when coming from the dam it's either the first or second road on your right. Some of the guys on here might know the name. Hope this helps. SIO3
  4. Yes it does LMW. I usually catch a few cats everytime out. I have a great carp spot here in St. Charles on the river. I've written a couple reports here on OA about it. SIO3
  5. Hey Phil. When I was down there a couple years ago my wife, daughter and I went out flyfishing for baby tarpon in Cancun bay. Awesome evening and fished into the night. Nothing fights like a tarpon. The bay is the nursery for baby tarpon. By the way babies grow to 90 lbs in the bay. Rodman Hunter was the guy. http://www.cancunsportfishing.com/flyfishing.html If you go, ask him about the night fishing trip with a 5 year old when the saltwater croc attacked the boat trying to get a tarpon I had on.

  6. Headed back over to the subdivision lake were we tore em up last time. See previous report. Went over around noon and it was sunny, 67 degrees and again a good wind out of the south. Those are my 3 "must haves" for winter bass fishing. Went to a new point with no luck and then pounded the area where we caught em in late November. Nothing, not a bite. Lake had been iced over for 2 weeks and all the snow that was on the roads melted and brought the lake level up around 3 feet. I guess it cooled it off enough to shut em down. Still good to get out. SIO3.
  7. I know, I know. I'm all city all the time. Never could stomach the stuff. Don't hold it against me. Different doesn't mean wrong. On the other hand I'm all carnivore. I'll eat any meat and if tries to get away I like it even better. Kind of like a bear. If it rolls over and plays dead it has a slim chance of survival but if it runs, it turns on my attack instinct and there is no chance at all. SIO3
  8. I think I'll pass on the food. I can't even eat biscuits and gravey or grits when I'm in Memphis. You should see the looks I get when I refuse to eat those "treats?" down there. SIO3
  9. Hey guys. I just got back from working in Memphis for 2 weeks and saw this post. I'll try and make it but if they send me back to Memphis that week I'll have to bag it. In all honesty I probably won't be able to go but I'm trying. I'll probably camp at the state park for the night. SIO3.
  10. I make one little off hand remark and you guys go nuts with it. I guess I opened can of worms. Worms, get it? SIO3.
  11. We got 3-4 inches of ice followed by 6-7 inches of snow here in St. Charles. I shoveled our 3 car driveway of the snow and chipped ice off of half of it. We have a pretty good slope down to the cul-de-sac and all the kids in the neighborhood were sliding down the ice half all day and into the night tonight. My 7 year old daughter was out there all day and cried when we took her boots off because her feet itched and burned. Then she had dinner a couple minutes ago followed by hot chocolate and she passed out right there at the kitchen table. I'm using a mister bottle tonight to really get it slick for tomorrow. Tomorrow maybe we'll get out the outdoor firepit and roast some mellows. Gotta love snow days even if there isn't any fishin around here. SIO3
  12. Good one Terry. A #24 is 8 inches long isn't it? SIO3.
  13. I got mine last week I think. Thank you Mr. Phil. What do you think? SIO3 or Snagged in outlet 3? SIO3
  14. Nice!!!!!! Thanks Phil. I'm watching the kids sled down the hill outside my office window. SIO3.
  15. This just isn't right. I get off work because of snow and I get to shovel out the drive and you guys are going fishin!!!! I'd be all over that boat trip Phil. Double white jigs should do it. SIO3.
  16. Come on SKMO, where's your priorities man? Do you have any pics of the saw incident? SIO3.
  17. Dano, You jinxed em. It's "GO HAWGS" not "Go Hogs" SIO3
  18. Speaking of a wet winter. Man we need it. There is a small pond by my buddies house here in St. Louis and a month or so ago I noticed it was completely dry. I asked him about it and he said his dad told him it's never totally dried out like that for the 60 or 70 years he can remember. Rain baby rain. SIO3.
  19. Can you believe that? Bass fishing in November around St. Louis. Some of my best bass fishing has been between Nov. and March when most people feel they aren't active. Granted, I pick my days wisely. We played golf yesterday and the ponds around the golf course got us going. So we headed to a subdivision my buddy lives in and we just pounded em. Took a while to find em but they were stacked when we did. The wind was just howling and they absolutely were smacking the spinnerbait. Caught most of them on one point near deep water. Caught em right up till dark. Bet it's just as good today or better, before this front rolls in. SIO3.
  20. I spent 3 days fishing at McC's during the Conclave and talked to John quite a bit about their decision to close. We sat around waiting for the water to fall out all 3 days. He said they're tired of the whole deal starting with opening the gate everyday. John said nothing of memberships and along those lines said they were tired of chasing people down to get them to pay. Some people refused to pay and insisted it was public property. You could tell he was tired of the whole deal. I haven't heard anything about Otter Creek access except stuff that was posted like you guys did here. Hope it happens though. I, like John, think that is the best water in the world. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. SIO3.
  21. To answer your last question, yes. SIO3
  22. My dad and his friends always told me that Cardiac Access on the Meramec was named that, because my dad had a heart attack coming up the hill there. He's out today and I'll try to pin him down on it tomorrow. I've always believed it and even the old guys from Ozark Flyfishers have told me that. SIO3.
  23. Hi Mr Murdoc. I was there Tuesday and Wednesday and when I'm geting ready tuesday morning I see the truck next to me has an OzarkAnglers sticker with Murdoc on it. I wish we would have been in the lot at the same time so we could meet. When I came back your truck was gone. Wasn't that some awesome weather. And The Browns!!!!! Where'd you get the sticker? SIO3.
  24. I think the rotund lady working the office took it. It was only me and a guy in a popup camper for the whole place. Coulda been a drive by. SIO3. I just noticed I can't spell. Kinda loses something when it doesn't make sense, especially in the title. It's the in-laws I tell ya. SIO3
