  1. Most of my rattler experience is from Arizona, but several close encounters and never had one rattle. One time was face to face looking under brush for a dove, another my foot was 6 inches over one coiled. I will saw I never thought a rattler was as loud as they are.
  2. So you're saying the US is full of suckers?
  3. Haven't they tried this before?
  4. I thought I was the only one who had done that. Happened back in the 80s.

  6. Best bait for any creek fish is a hellgrammite. Caught many Goggle Eye, small mouth, catfish and perch on them.
  7. You just had to brag about it.😄
  8. 22 shot shells are worthless, at least in my experience.
  9. Had a buddy that was cleaning houses and cleaning up after construction. Found about 3 thousand dollars worth of high quality woman's clothes, a lot with the tags in a Branson dumpster.
  10. I've used a uni to uni for years. Under 10 lb test needs to be retied at least mid-day, the only failures I've had are breaks at the knot/leader junction. I assume from repeatedly hitting the guides. I'm also partial to Sunline.
  11. When I moved back here in the middle 90s. Was in a guys shop that had several nice Walleye mounts. He said they were from Table Rock but far from RPS's haunts.
  12. One of the all-time great skits, almost as good as Julie Child.
  13. Closest setup to BFS I have is a upgraded Curado 100 (lighter spool, better bearings). On an 8 ft St Croix, saltwater tapered rod, great for free lining shrimp. Works down too about 1/16 as long as the wind cooperates. Got the bug from seeing RPS's setup a few years ago.
  14. I think most anytime you see surface feeding, there is another school sitting deep, feeding on easy meals. I've caught big bass under gar, bass under stripers etc.
  15. I've caught a lot of carp but the 35lb one I got on a Carolina rigged lizard was the biggest.
  16. Between Springfield and Joplin, maybe halfway.
  17. Couple of years ago, had one in Aurora, about two blocks from a house I owned.
  18. Doesn't the NWS monitor Radar and issue warnings?
  19. Reports of failure are as important as reports of success.
  20. The bridge at Shell Knob, washing it will probably finish removing the last paint job.
  21. I've had 5 inches so far, got about 4 of it yesterday.

    What's Cooking?

    Sound like a task for AI.
  23. Government employees have no business being unionized. I'm not anti union, my Dad and multiple relatives did well working union jobs.
  24. We butchered a few when I was a kid, Grandad left the hide on.
