  1. I've gigged from both small jon boats and now my own jet isI like how stable my jet is speed isnt a noticeable difference but we gig in a pretty slow strech of water hitting a moving target that is usually darting in different directions can be tricky but it's worth the trouble great tasting fish
  2. That's what everyone says so far the best I've seen a new guy do is four on his first night it's no where near as easy as it looks as for bass in the nets if you run one across a river and get a couple guys to walk fish down to it you get what ever hits it I've heard old timers talk about filling up 50 and 60 burlap sack with fish on a weekly basis if you ever want to give gigging a try my boat is open all season
  3. I'm actually getting a copy of that book tomorrow
  4. Back before we had a fish and game all fish where fair game however suckers where the most popular and fishwrench it dosent sound like you've talked with very many old time river men ever heard of fish traps or tramel nets one day of useing those probably landed more fish than 99% of people get in a year and you should try gigging it's a blast and a lot harder than it looks
  5. If you are interested in fishing a river boat only styletournament check out flat creek buddy bass masters on Facebook
  6. That is a pain for sure I don't think the guy I know has a big boat so they probably don't have that problem
  7. That's kinda what I figured a guy I work with went up there some where around Bennett springs but I don't know what kind of boat they use or how big it is there's too much plant growth in the water to gig suckers? We've been going on the James River since September 15th when we started we only had about two and a half feet of visibility I can't imagine it's that dingy now
  8. Have heard the gigging is good on the niangua and am wanting to know of a boat ramp that has a good strech we could put in at and gig thanks
  9. Fishing dose slow down a lot when it gets cold but I probably hit the river more in the winter than the summer either gigging or running a trap line
  10. Got another 16 last night
  11. When last night for a few hours at blunks killed 13 had a good night
  12. I wasn't doging on them I more or less ment if if they had never introduced any thing would it be different
  13. I can understand where he's coming from trout trout and most other species that have been introduced to the state do survive here better than Muskie so I can understand where he's coming from but who's to say if he's wrong or right I like fishing for trout and I'd like to try to fish for muskie but who says Fisheries in this area wouldn't be better if we just left things alone there's two sides to every story
  14. No problem
  15. Thanks is the ramp in good shape
  16. I am all for restoring the white river no more lakes but what about the one that aren't in lakes like crane creek
  17. Can any one tell me how to get to romp hole.
  18. So you want to get rid of all the trout here as well
  19. Water temp was 77 on Friday the marina said it was time to start fishing for musky
  20. Thanks I think I'm going to try to fish from state line down pretty soon looks like a good stretch
  21. I can get a border lake license in mo and fish in on either side of the border on table rock but how far down the kings am I covered before I need an Arkansas fishing license?
  22. Looking to buy gig on fiberglass pole near Springfieldmo
  23. That's dumb but it's there lake guess I won't be fishing there then
  24. Even if it's a factory 40 horse all the paperwork says 40 horse.
  25. Ran my jet boat about 5 miles up flat creek form the ramp at flat creek restaurant would have gone farther but tree is blocking stream caught several largemouth around chunk rock also saw lots of suckers also caught a 3 pounder above blunks in galena also in the chunk rock had a good day running around
