That was totally off topic, I'm notifying the administra.... Oh, never mind.

Man, with "friends" like that...

Oh, I knew I could always call on Lilleys landing.. Looks like the rain has made my decision for me.. Thanks though!

I like how you put friends in quotations.. lol Do I really hafta wade to fish down here? Can't I float a maribou with a bobber from the bank? Wait, dont I have a "friend" with a boat?

Genius, KC!! Wait, you think they'll have those at Walgreens? lol

Too late, I'm already there... I attempted to grab the fishing gear, but was subtly reminded that there will "prolly be no time for fishing"

I find myself whisked away suddenly to Branson for the weekend (Dixie Stampede, Silver Dollar City, etc... The benefits of a charity raffle we won) and I find myself contemplating the best way to: Find some available fishing gear Find a spot to fish for a bit Not run afoul of the spouse (drag her out of bed early, spend a bunch of money, etc) Okay, now you know the situation.. What's your suggestion? (GO)

I'd bet dollars to donuts that they never got farther than 100 yards from the Greer spring outlet...

:comedic_drum_roll:

Hey, I noticed that too.. You definitely can't see his elbows..

Dayum!!!

:blushing:

lol, which lifetime?

Oh, no!! You didn't just take the "Christ" out of Christmas for your lil promotion, did you?!? Best not say anything on Facebook... Those are some odd lookIng baits, is that a hard plastic body? Looks heavy...

Hehe, tanks.. Agreed!

I'm half tempted to be selfish and keep this report to myself, but that just ain't my style.. Besides, these fish ain't easy to target AND the abundance of trout in the upper zones captures more attention due to sheer size and numbers (stalked a pair of 14lb bohemoths yesterday, for example), so I feel my "pets" are pretty safe.. Got up and headed out to Bennett Springs yesterday morning to fish the catch and release areas, intent upon figuring out the smallie bite on the fly... I snuck down to the boatramp hole and the end of the park and tossed the clown colored x-rap and came up with this fella:

You sure I can't just put up a privacy fence and ignore the problem, Justin?

You mean catchin em by hand ain't your cup o' tea?

Welcome!!

The parable of the hot dog vendor comes to mind:

Fishing in the C&R area also affords you the unique opportunity of scolding the family of immigrants who inevitably aren't familiar with the rules and/or can't/won't read the posted signs... If you're into that kinda thing..

I can see Gitnby's point, but she's being gracious enough with her current offer, are we sure it's wise to request that she double down? lol (food for thought, being the gracious husband that I am)

I remember thinking this was on the horizon when we were discussing your profession.. Intricate stuff, maybe the wave of the future for baits!?!
