  1. And, I have to concur, the food was horrible. Basically inedible. I almost couldn't go back for seconds.
  2. Regardless of the fishing, I had a great time. Brett and Cody guided this sorry (excuse for a human being-censors caught me) onto some fish every day. I forgot how to fish in the last missing few years.
  3. Leaving Joplin shortly. Will be down before lunch
  4. Yeah, sorry to see you weren't going to make it. I'll try to get back down there more often next year.
  5. I'll get in around noon on Friday. Send me your phone number and I'll call when I'm close and we can work it out. What ramp are you going out of? I need to read back on the Jigfest thread to see where we are staying. I need to stop by Ham's house first and pick up my rods and jigs. He's had them since like 2018 when I sold my house and he kindly picked them up and have been holding them for me.
  6. Sounds good. Shoot me your phone number and I'll give you a call when I get in.
  7. Looks like I'm in for sure. I can probably get there around noon on Friday to fish if I can catch a ride and can fish Saturday. I plan to stay Friday and Saturday night. I'm coming in from a week-long business trip in MO and KS so I won't have food but I'm more than willing to contribute booze and funds towards meals.
  8. I am now boatless and looking for a ride. Planning to be there Friday afternoon and Saturday to fish, going home Sunday.
  9. Still have room for one more? I think I can make it. I no longer have a boat. Any room for a non-boater? This all assumes I can meet up with Ham at some point. He still has my rods and ZigJigs that he so kindly picked up from my house when I sold it and was still in Vietnam. Or he could pass them along to someone local that would be there.
  10. No worries, 2022 will be better for me if you want to hit that June bite. I'll be hopping when we move back next year. Need to sell my house, buy another house in Lincoln in the school district that I want to live in and just overall get two foriegners settled into a new country. I know from my own experience coming here that it is tough. They will both have it easier than me because at least they speak the language. I've been here a year and a half and I probably only know 40-50 words. Tonal languages like Vietnamese and Chinese are difficult for English speaking people to understand and learn. Daughter is excited, wife less so because of leaving her family which I understand. Daughter turns 14 this month. She has done a great job learning English. When she came to live with us after we married she could speak maybe three words. Now we can get by no problem. Still not fluent but conversational English is fine. The reason I want to move to Lincoln is there are a lot of Vietnamese there and the high school I want her in has about 10% Asian, mostly Vietnamese so she will have friends and the school has a good ESL program for Vietnamese students.
  11. Also, it is a foregone conclusion that if you go out there for three days you will lose a day to wind. Just can't avoid it. It never fails.
  12. Great report! Since I'm moving back to Nebraska in June with the newly expanded family I can round up a group and we can go back with both kayaks and bass boats. Merritt reservoir is half an hour from the refuge and we can fish both the same trip. We usually fish two days at the refuge and two days at Merritt. Bass and walleye fishing is good at Merritt. A lot of 25" walleye and a chance at a 50" muskie. Watts got winter killed a few years back so all of the big bass and muskie are unfortunately gone. There's a couple of the better lakes at the refuge that you didn't fish. I really wish you would have told me you were going and I could have steered you. But, we can do that next time! See you next year!
  13. Yes, I think there is a leak at the bead. No nails and it holds air for a few months. I just never got around to dismounting and re-seating the tire.
  14. Thanks man, I REALLY appreciate it.
