FRENZEL

If you stayed in the wind you got bit.. Got lucky before my Batteries went to heaven. Giving me trouble.. Give me a minute or 2. Hopefully some of these show up for some trips this week.

A month off for would probably make a huge difference. Stream bass fishing is an example. Probably would never happen though. How about a 2 month slot limit? I don't know.. Just a thought.

Dang I thought that was you.. I had the day off and took my dad fishin. Put in @ state park. My trollin batteries went south almost immediately so i only got to fish 2 good banks that I wanted to. But the first did produce a ready to pop toad of a Largemouth over 20 inches long. Had two giant Kentuckies on my second bank. Then we had to try to avoid the wind with my trolling motor out of the game. Had a few shorts after that but it was torture knowing what we could have been doing! One thing I noticed was when the wind was pushing us too fast to let the bait soak, They would follow it right to the boat. Again torture!

Well I lied.. We decided to try our luck with the Bass on the Rock. Looked like a lot o water comin through though.

I saw Babler heading down to the ramp the other day. I will probably be out tomorrow. Gonna try to hit Taney and the rock. I haven't been out since the rains.

Someone trying to stir the pot?

Good night for a second trip ever! Crappie are for eatin!The only Bass I find worth eating are gut hooked kentuckies right @ 15 inches. 12" on BS.

I have played around some with replicas and I really like that look you accomplished with the bass. Seems to me that the airbrush for the bulk layers and then a lot of hand painting is the way to go. I am really more of a wildlife art hobbiest and just like the 3 dimensional canvas of a fish. But I definitely love that look.

Thank god I am not 6'9".. Fly fishing trips could get interesting.. I would look like a christmas tree. She came on an X-Rap. The silver/black back. 15 feet off the bank on a transition. I am trying to stick around Long Creek a little more now that I work out of Long Creek resort next to gages. Not a bad trip to Baxter so I may start trailering over there when the bite is tough on this side.

CARP! Smallies and Hybrids are good far as warm water. Brownies in the cold.

Mine was almost 22" not quite. But mine said 6:9. She was exceptionally fat though.. Very broad as well.

You are gonna fish down there aren't ya?

How long was she?

Hey I just noticed I am a Black Crappie and its April...

Hey Bill, How about for the last few pounds we squeeze you in a drift boat on all your Taney trips.. Only they all start from Lilleys and you have to row your way to the dam. You know a little resistance training. Oh and your clients cant be under 6ft tall and 220lbs.

Might have been a little tough last year but he is right. Just use your eyeballs. After you make the stop you can use your graph for some fine adjustment.

I was just wondering about them getting an image off of leather and printed onto paper. BTW I really like the size you used for a series. I'll have to check out your facebook

I have been trying to keep up with them. They are more often than not at least a little helpful. Seems like that 1st half an hour they slow it down the bigger fish have really turned on for me.. My problem is the last few times has been right at the end of the trip.

I would definitely go for an 18 foot or so semi v river jon. I like the center console but flyfishing may be easier with a side.. not sure. Also a jet would serve you well with what you want to use it for

What printer did you use? I am also a wildlife artist and would really like to reproduce some of my work. I have never had any done but have had some interest lately. I do some of my work on different surfaces like leather.. Would that pose a problem with reproducing them?

Thats a good looking Largemouth. What brand paint do you use? Hydromist? Lifetone

Stickbait fish.

There are still plenty of trees left for you to fish just a few yards down!

Days like that wil make guiding woth while! Great report.... !
