These are great

If you need to weigh the fish I would use a combination of the boga and a net. Weigh the fish and the net while it is in the net to keep from harming it. The boga is getting alot of bad publicity about possibly harming the fish.

I like that

Welcome back Trav-good to have your pennies!

This was taken from the MoDNR website. My guess from this is that only certain agricultural live stock are classified for CAFOs. Lets hope this is the case so in that manner they can be fought. I've been driving through northern Arkansas alot lately and the smell that permeates the air around them CAFOs is terrible. That alone cant be good for the environment. Classification of Animal Feeding Operations The requirements are based on the number of animal units at each operating location. Table 1 shows the different animal species and Table 1a shows the animal unit range within the separate classifications. 1.0 Beef feeder or slaughter animal 0.5 Horse 0.7 Dairy cow 2.5 Swine weighing over 55 pounds 15 Swine weighing less than 55 pounds 10 Sheep 30 Laying hens 60 Pullets 55 Turkeys 100 Broiler chickens

I do know that you need a trout stamp to fish in the parks during catch and release season.

I believe you already have some in there, silly They are in the box I keep borrowing from you

Ya gotta love the "Ace of Spades". You definately are not doing yourself any favors by not having one in your flybox!

We have about 3 weeks before the dead line is here. I have already received flies from jjtroutbum. He ties some excellent soft hackles DD'sMC has completed her flies and they look great My primrose and pearl soft hackles are done also. Let me know when you are done with your flies and I will PM you my address.

Nice to have you on here Veldon.

As of right now, my vote would be Crane. I've only fished the Eleven Point once a long time ago. I should get back over that way because I really think I'm missing something over there.
