@fishinwrench you'd be surprised how well a Tiny Torpedo works at night there. A Fat Albert or big chubby would work just fine. As you said, if they're eating big bugs, they're looking for a profile. One thing I've noticed with bigger foam flies with trout...they miss them a lot. The cicadas may be a real-life size 4, but the amount of hookups you're going to get on a size 4 fly is going to be way less than a size 6 or 8. I think it's just physics and fluid dynamics when they open their mouths for it.

Alright, that's all I needed. Me and my cicadas will be down as soon as I can get away from work.

New s**t has come to light, man!

Pete you are killing me! I wanna get down there badly.

Pete Wenners, Mike Webb, Jordan Isaacs, and Eric Prey are all solid choices you can't go wrong with.

I smoked a dozen a few weeks ago and they got the smoke color but no real flavor. Do you find the pickling helps with it?

Fish the lower lake from Rockaway to Powersite like it's Table Rock and you will be in business. If there is grass, use a frog and heavy braid in the mornings and evenings. For what it's worth, I think the next state record largemouth is in Taneycomo. The silting in is an issue, but I know MDC is working to combat it.

This "study" is the equivalent of Wakefield's "study" claiming vaccines cause autism. It's pseudo science and the fact it's being shared across platforms is a disgrace. CWD will likely become zoonotic at some point, but this is a lunatic Dablemont-esque article.

Water is really low for fishing Sac and Little Sac this year. I know plenty that are catching them out of boats in deeper holes. I've fished it 3-4 times and have only (I say only in jest) caught smallmouth.

Yea the amount of people who "have" to keep the bigger walleye and crappie during the spawn is a mindset, that's for sure. Plenty of smaller eaters out there that one can catch.

I'm young, but I agree. It has been so brutal every single day, right until dark and past. Makes it very hard to enjoy fishing. I caught that fish and just hung up the rod.

Been fishing Truman the last few weekends. It's honestly been pretty brutal with the wind. We have been catching them, though. The cold fronts have them moving constantly it seems. Most of the keeper fish are in the mouths of creeks in 15-20 FOW, about 10 ft down. As soon as you get into the creek arms, it is dink city. Color doesn't seem to matter much, but monkey milk, orange/chartreuse, and bone have been good. We have been using 1/4-oz and 3/16-oz jig heads to get down quickly with the wind. Some fish crush the jig if you get it anywhere near them, others you have to knock them on the head and slowly pull it away. Hopefully we get some rain and warmer weather to move the keepers back up into the creeks. Water temp was 54 yesterday, with shallower areas showing 57. Got this one yesterday--biggest crappie ever landed at 15-inches and 2.2-lbs. Let her go so she could spawn. That was fun!

It's their stipulations. Did some research and you can use Bally but you have to have a TV provider. Which defeats the purpose of the entire app. But overall, MLB is to blame. MLB and the NHL are atrocious at making games viewable. NFL has a lot of hate, but take notes.

Wow. It's amazing how much the MLB steps on their own feet. The blackouts are ridiculous and now this? So dumb.

@Phil Lilley Bally Sports App is the only good option. MLBTV will blackout since it's technically available on Bally in SWMO. It's a bad user-friendly app, but it's $15/month and worth it if you really want to watch. I have Bally Sports for Blues games and could watch the Royals on there if I wanted.
