There is a public ramp at Beaver, but there is a Corps of Engineers fee and right now, the water is too high to use it. Launch at Holiday Island instead. No fee and useable even at this lake level. Plenty of parking as well. The others covered the Border Lakes license information well.

Wow. What a great review and recommendation.

My daughter signed me up for a gift card with Plated as a Father's Day gift. The pictured meal is one made from one of their shipments of ingredients plus recipes. Pork tonkatsu is a panko breaded pork cutlet. The salsa has cherries, citrus, oil, and garlic. The mitzuna is one of those semi bitter lettuces and the dressing was soy sauce, citrus, garlic, and ginger. All in all it was a very good meal.

Pork Tonkatsu with Yuzu Cherry and Mizuna - really excellent -> especially as a gift from the daughter.

Romaine, radicchio, sugar snap peas, hard boiled egg, avocado, tomatoes, chicken breast, cucumber, olive, carrot, and radish, topped with a home made herb dressing.

Bill gave you the 100% answer. To try and save you some of those hours, here are a few "helpers." I look for changes on changes - that means I look for flats the fall into the channel and then look for change on that break. I use the thermocline as a baseline. That means I look for those change on change locations that happen to occur at or near the thermocline. I follow a mantra that goes like this - outside bend, timber is good. Inside bend, nothing or brush. Last, I have written two walleye articles for Phil Lilley (this forum) that say many of the things I have learned. Check these out: http://www.ozarkanglers.com/white-river-walleye-on-worm-harness/ http://www.ozarkanglers.com/table-rock/trolling-for-walleye/ Hope these help you.

I saw bait balls that extended from near the surface to below 25 feet. The smaller balls were 15 to 18 feet deep.

Fished this morning, for the first time in over two weeks. Did not even try the top water bite so I put in at 6:15. I pulled out at 11:00. Not counting bass and bluegill, I had four good bites and managed to net two keepers. I fished a nightcrawler harness between 25 and 30 feet deep at 1.2 mph and focused on edges of inside bend flats.

Out this morning. Stayed above Eagle Rock. Water clarity 4 feet and greenish dingy. Surface temp 89 to 90. Thermocline looked like 24 to 28 feet on my graph, but I did not drop a thermometer. Still some floating debris.

Welcome! These other guys are overwhelming, aren't they? I hope you enjoy the time you spend on here and that you can make your move sooner rather than later.

I was there that week. Love it there.

Been away guys. I let you down. Is this thread dead or merely resting?

Good job. Catching a limit on a grind day is excellent work.

The tourism trade would dry up. Not funny, just true.

Welcome! Sorry you had to move from this area, but hope you come back often.

It's a close call. For the most part people have behaved well, even though they disagree. On the other hand, this horse has been beat to death and no good can come from extra beating.

I posted scientific material from peer reviewed journals. Seems to me the only such material posted in this discussion. I made zero comment other than "interesting reading." In response, people imply I am a mentally deficient, godless liberal. The term for this kind of response is ad hominem. That is the classic Latin phrase that means the response attacks the man rather than the argument. If scientific studies proved the guns prevented crimes against property or person, I am sure the NRA would publicize it until we were all convinced. They don't so I know such studies do not exist. I respect the rights all of you have to own and keep firearms. What I question is the wisdom. When I posted material that seems to support that questioning, it seems I threatened the beliefs of some. As for the argument that guns make for a safer society and reduce or prevent crime, please make a comparison among the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand. (I chose those nations so the no one would accuse me of comparing the United States to godless foreigners.) You will discover that in societies comparable to our own where firearms are heavily regulated, the murder and armed robbery statistical evidence proves they are safer. But then, why would anyone want facts to have anything to do with their opinion. BTW, I want to make clear that I own guns, I qualified expert when in the military (although I never heard a shot fired in anger), and I support responsible hunting. I know Tanderson and the idea that he carries does not bother me one bit. My points are directed to untrained idiots with handguns. For every Tanderson in the world there 20 or more of the others and they kill or they let their kids kill every day. Do not bother to respond. I am done with this thread.

You can still put in there. BTW, if you don't like how the main ramp looks, go over to the ramp on the point that only works when the water is up but is paved and leads into the main channel.

Simple question: Did you actually read all the material before your knee jerked?

If you actually read the material in the links, one of the studies was by Harvard.

Leadcore, I use leaders. Power pro, I do not. While some have read this, you may not have seen it. Many of the comments and suggestions work in all places. http://www.ozarkanglers.com/table-rock/trolling-for-walleye/

Tonight will be a pork stir fry with many mushrooms, broccoli, onion and carrots in a ginger garlic sauce. Boring, I know, but tasty.

Looks like Labor Day just outside of Big M.
