  1. That front dock corners bite should just be getting good. Thanks for the report dwiebenga. Nice to hear from you.
  2. Because the war in Afghanistan is on a smaller scale, we often don't realize that our current-day troops are enduring simillar atrocities and coming home equally broken. They need our prayers and support in the worst way. For that matter, our law enforcement officers are subjected to a lot of the same stuff "people should never have to see or be a part of." Pray for them, too, and thank them every chance you get.
  3. Good job, Fishrman. Sounds like that front got them biting rather than hurting the bite. Donna and I fished a few hours Saturday morning on one of the Bella Vista lakes and they were biting decently, too. Work kept me home this weekend but hoping to spend next Sat-Sun on the water rather than staring at the computer screen.
  4. They should've at least left a thank-you note for the free meal. Greedy turds.
  5. Are you gonna get down this way soon, Macsimus? Didn't know at what point you flee the frigid North.
  6. I hear ya, J-Doc. That batter is an awful thing to do to any fish. Someday I'm gonna go find a striper or a few big whites and try your blackened recipe. Sounds mighty good.
  7. Hasn't been a word in the paper about it but they ain't what they used to be as far as staying on top of things.
  8. That would be a good place for every last one of them.
  9. Very nice.

    Gabe and Jmontgo are right ... this is good stuff. I used it a lot on my Champion and it eliminates the need for any further waxing. Also cuts water spots pretty well.
  11. Nope, that doesn't happen here. Unless it's in the 30s/40s and raining or something worse with winds 10-20 mph.
  12. A friend has been catching some at night again on this big moon. Sounds like they've temporarily gone back to an October pattern.

    Well, heck. So THAT's his dang crankbait secret. Vinegar. I'll fix him. I'm gonna start keeping my RK's in pickle juice.
  14. Bill, I sent a Facebook bulletin to everyone within 200 miles of The Rock that you were coming back from deer camp today. They were all out there to welcome you back and where were you? Out galavanting around looking at leaves. Heckuva deal.
  15. Thank you for being dedicated to serving our veterans. That's a noble cause and one you obviously took to heart. It's appreciated.

    +1 on the vinegar and water. Exactly what our Ranger dealer recommends. After home washes, it gets a coat of Turtle Wax Ice spray and wipe.
  17. Yup, you better enjoy the chase in this sport because most of us spend lots of time trying to throw the right bait in the right place at the right time. Only a chosen few are able to whack them every time out.
  18. Good story, ness. Glad you got to meet this guy and have that conversation. I'm sure he enjoyed the chance to talk about it, too.
  19. LOL, good stuff, C4F. They run a good tournament. You'll enjoy it.
  20. Purely a protective measure for us. Just make sure you get the vented one from Tuff Skinz. They do a great job and are very personable to deal with.
  21. Thanks for the report, Hammer. Glad you got out and got into some action. The bigger ones will show up soon.
  22. That's too bad. Would've been a great conversation.
  23. We haven't even gotten to the spinnerbait bite yet. Not much of one anyway.
  24. Looks like more of the same this coming weekend. Just colder.
  25. I have no Power Poles, jersey or buff but I do have a vented hood cover on our motor. Fishing docks as much as we do, it's inevitable that you're gonna bump your motor on them and scratch it up.
