That was an amazing catch that he made, but yeah, his team got smoked.

He had a bad day!

I think it’s hilarious.

This is a huge work in progress but it's the beginning of what I expect to be a great adventure. There is more info at our website www.neoshobass.com. I have been given permission to add a 5 part series on the Neosho Bass that was done by The Ozark Podcast. I would recommend that everyone listen to at least the first two episodes. Lots of good information in that. I should have it all added to our website by the end of the weekend. We begin filming at the end of March on what we consider a premier Neosho stream, and have many other trips planned for the remainder of the year.

Never wanted to throw one with gear, why would I want to on a fly rod?

Maybe not. The problem I see is not the guides, hopefully they have always been able to catch them. However it does seem a little odd to me that they can sell fish but I cannot. Oh well, I don't care. But here is a scenario that many don't consider. I know a guy that has a dock on an area lake. He's not much of a fisherman. In past years he has spent a lot of time on his dock catching enough crappie to feed him and a few friends once a year. So a couple of years ago he goes with another friend that has FFS and they come home with limits. So rookie fisherman gets FFS on his ski boat. Now his friends have a fish fry about once a month and more friends are fed. He doesn't care about conservation, he only cares about being the guy that always has crappie to eat. If you think it's not causing any damage, your IQ is too low.

Dude, that’s the American way! Everything is political.

Doesn’t take a genius to know it’s going to have an impact.

That's the story I was told as well. My dad and I, and a friend of his were fishing nearby and he told us that story.

That’s because they are hard to see during the daytime. I lose mine in the sky all the time. Kind of hard to miss one at night with the lights. I see no more in Springfield than I have ever seen. Always a little increase around Christmas but other than that it’s pretty much the same. My wife is unimpressed of me not freaking out about it like her.

I was talking more about the costs of the two options. Can you fish on Table Rock for 2.50 a day? I can sure as hell still float for $25 or less a day.

Very cool. But man how the times have changed.

Dam built 54 thru 58. I know one was born in 38. It’s a small possibility but I know that wherever the stories are from, they have to be good. But I’ve never met them either. LOL

Very interesting. I need to read that at some point. This Saturday I’m interviewing a couple of guys that may have floated the White before the dams. I won’t know for sure until I get a chance to talk to them. Going to put it all together for a video about outdoorsmen of the Ozarks.

Zoom floating worm in pink. The Tackle HD ones that @Mitch f makes have promise but I haven’t had a great chance to try them out.
