True drew but I already own a pair of Simms boots that are already broken in, had a chance to get the new Simms with the BOA system but I like the ones I have.

FFM I did have felt on my wading boots and had them resoled by Craftwell & Dunnright in Farmington, cost $15 to ship by USPS and $70 for the the new soles

Ok guys I just had my wading boots resoled and from what I hear they can get very slick, my question is do I spend the $30 for the name brand studs or would sheet metal screws works the same.

Ok guys I have been banging out trout for 8 years in Missouri now its time that I look for bigger and better. I am heading to Martha's Vineyard in Sept 2012 during the highet of the big Bass And Bluefish Derby that is held every year out there. My question is have any of you guys fished the famous fall run out there and what fly line would work, fly selection, and rod and reel would work for this advanture. I purchased and 8 weight Ross Essences, Lamson Konic 3.5 and Rio Redfish line, is this going to work or am I going to be a little out gunned any advice will be much welcomed. I will be fishing from shore.

Just picked up my tickets today I can't wait heck I hope it lasts all night, but the sad truth is I have to cut my trip to Montauk short so I can make it.

A trip to the east or the FFFT now thats a tuff choice, but I think I would get in less trouble at the FFFT. Then again if they give you a discount with your ticket stub over at the east side then I am all game for a night on the town.

Just got this on my facebook page Attention Missouri, help spread the word. New show added for Saint Louis! March 28th @ Tivoli Theatre. Discount tix available at Feather-Craft for $12. This will be our first year ever in St. Louis and we're super stoked. Let's see how well Missouri can represent!

I don't have any experiance with Coasta sunglasses but I do with Oakley, I wouldn't trade them for the world and if you buy them from Bass Pro I know they carry them in polerized.

If caught sleeping at Tan Vat do they give you a warning the first time or is it a for sure ticket

I thought I had seen a sign last year while I was down there saying no over night parking but I figured I would ask, I will be fishing most of the night so it is going to be more of a crash spot for a few hours of slepp before I head home.

Thanks for the info

Hey guys I was wondering if you can still over night at Tanvat, if not are there any places close that I could crash in my car for a night and not have to pay.

Not to worried about size of the trout I am taking two newcomers to trout fishing with me and figured I would sit the fishing out this year and make sure the noobs gets there chance at a few, I have heard the smallie move into the park but I have never had any luck catching any.

Hey guys and gals anyone heading to Meramec for the catch and release opener on friday.

Thanks for the info STL my other question is how is the night fishing outside the park, after my recent trip down to taney and doing some night fishing I was wondering if the Current would produce at night

Hey guys I am heading down to Montuak on Sunday and just realized that the last major fish slaughter is going on this weekend I was just wondering how the fishing will be once the croweds leave, or should I focus more on fishing outside the park.

I would have to second what jah said, Eagles Park is not the best looking camp grounds but it will do the trick for tent camping. I have stayed there one time when Montauk was filled and had a great time, it can get a little rawdy, and they do have 2 electric sites

Nothing really inpressive to report yet I hooked into a couple and lost them came back to the hotel for a little lunch and headed back out 3 generators running so I got to witness the combat fishing that goes on at the outlets, I hooked into what possibly was a real nice fish but I never got to see it because it run striaght to the river and I ended up getting tangle into another fisherman. But the wife has given me clearance to hit taney tonight for some late night fun.

Thanks guys for all the info I will be leaving STL at 4 a.m. on Monday morning and heading straight for Taney I hope to see some other's from OA, I will try to get a fishing report once I check into the hotel.

Hey guy and gals, me and my wife will be heading down to Branson for our one year anniversary and since I didn't make it to Colorado this year we chose to fish Taneycomo. I have never fished in taney before so I don't know what I am getting into, I have noticed ppl fish from boats and also wade whats the story on that, also what flies should I bring and will I be able to wade fish of should I look into renting a boat any help would nice.

If this river keeps running high I guess I will venture over to craigslist and find a drift boat.

I haven never seen or heard from the said land owners of that area, I got my trespassing ticket while fishing after hours on the meramec river in valley park, I wasn't trespassing but my car was.

Well I guess I will have to sit back and watch the river gauge go up and down like a yo-yo good thing I wasn't planning to fish cardiac for another week, good to hear the cabin is gone bad to hear it is being built down stream. Do they have Big Johns area clearly marked like they had before I can't afford another trespassing ticket.

Hey guys I was just checking the river gauge at Steelville and finally the Meramec looks really good for fishing cardiac I was wondering if anyone has fished it in awhile and had any fishing reports.

I was a park ranger that issued the ticket, I found a topo map for the park boundries I was was in the wrong for fishing there at night after park hours so I guess now I just wait to see what my fine is.
