    MLF next week

    I think it will be interesting to see how table rock catch rates compare to the catch rates at grand. I’m sure most will say numbers will be lower...and size will be better at grand I think the bass fishing at grand is in the tank...in my mind fishing has got worse and worse for the past 4 or 5 years i know they’ll probably whackem but I don’t think total pounds or numbers will be close to what they’re catching at table rock
  2. Good job...we caught a bunch of largemouths out of Campbell point yesterday flipping and pitching the bushes with brush hogs. We only fished from swim beach to mill creek...only there a couple hours We saw a couple wrapped boats...hard to tell who they are. Need to keep binoculars in the boat. only one we recognized was Tommy Biffle...he kind of cut us off a little...but really didn’t matter to us. We thought it was cool that we were doing what he was. We watched him for a bit and just boated back where we’d come from and fished same water again. He didn’t stay very long the guy I saw doing the best was fishing same stuff we were but with a frog...but I don’t know who he was. our biggest was a couple that went 16.5...no size but lots of numbers
  3. Sounds like another great day...on a beautiful day in the Ozarks. I’m hoping to come up Saturday and fish out of Stockton city ramp. How deep are you fishing?
  4. great day...how many kys did you catch? Were there more up there?
  5. The one off 39 is rough as a cob...the ramp itself is fine...but the paved area leading to it has a couple big chug holes. No problem if your tires are good no courtesy dock but you can just beach the boat near the ramp
  6. I think it all comes down to prep...but also have to consider materials i know I bought some cheap masking tape a year or so ago...that stuff was terrible...couldn’t even get it off the roll in one piece. You can’t go wrong with 3m products
  7. I did one of the gator guards about 15 years ago on an old ranger. was easy...and worked great gator guard is a little cheaper than some of other brands...but gator used 3m products if I remember right ive got aluminum now...but if I was ever in the market...I’d go gator....no regrets
  8. That’s funny...me fix something of yours...I don’t deserve such praise. You’ve helped me fix more stuff on this forum than I’ve ever fixed in my life. everytime I post a question...I think the same thing...if wrench will just help me again...maybe I can do it with his help. The help you give on this site is priceless and I am grateful for your help. If I ever get to the upper gravois I’m taking you to the nearest Applebee’s and I’m buying thank you
  9. I got it going...the deal the primer bulb sits on was blocked...sprayed air thru it...soaked in brake cleaner (I ran out of carb cleaner)....and got it going. i do have a zama carb in my amazon cart just in case...it shoots craps next time...thanks for the help
  10. Where’d you buy the carbs? Thanks
  11. That sounds a little beyond my skill level.. I’ve messed with the adjustment screws but I don’t know what I’m doing...I’m trying to loosen the h...and tighten the l trying to find the spot...seems like it helps...then it’s like I went too far...
  12. I’m having trouble with it...haven’t used for a couple years. Got it out Friday...dumped old fuel...changed primer bulb...changed spark plug...sprayed carb cleaner in it. fired right up Friday night...let it idle for long time...then tried to use but it won’t rev up thru power bands...just dogs out and falls on its face. i stopped messing with it because i got frustrated....boy played baseball yesterday so didn’t mess with it at all. Today...spayed about half can of carb cleaner in it...let it sit 20 minutes...now it starts when choked...then dies and won’t restart. Take spark plug out...dry it off...same deal...starts on choke...won’t start after think I just need to let it sit?

    Why bother

    That’s funny...but I just have to ask...were there any kentuckies mixed in?
  14. The boy got one this morning about 1145 at my folks...wasn’t a trophy but a beautiful bird...and a lot of memories
  15. Sheez....1200 is a fortune for a jon boat trailer...you should be able to buy one for 600 or so. Call Kim at marine center in Joplin...he’ll have one
  16. How much do you have in it? Just curious...can you save money? I enjoy making my own jigs...and basic fly tying...but to me the blanks seem really expensive
  17. I’d sell you this one cheap...not a bad trailer...but I don’t like it. Licensed and titled in Missouri...buy it cheap and offset price of a new one for me Probably needs rewired tho...I blew a couple fuses last week
  18. I heard she was parked...back to the river...and drunk...thought she had it in forward...had it in reverse...cobbed it to leave...and went in the drink. The guy didn’t know her...just trying to help. That’s what a guy told me...who was close by when it happened. I don’t know for sure tho
  19. They lifted limit last year or two in spring river...I think it’s silly to keep that many...unless you’re trying to feed an orphanage or something. i know there are a lot of whites in grand lake...we catch them all year long...but I don’t know why anyone would want to keep that many. i guess just so they can say they did it...but they paid their money and bought a license so they can do what they want...in my mind all they’ll have is a lot of freezer burned white bass...yahoo
  20. I don’t want to come across like I’m some super duper fisherman...because I’m not...but in that picture of the graph...I don’t think those are white bass...in my experience white bass will hug the bottom...sure sometimes there will be occasions where the fan out chasing I guess...but almost always there will be a real dense line just off the bottom
  21. The water is up...but it’s pools and riffles all the way to Baxter...stay to the left at the first one. There is plenty of fish below 10c...it’s not worth tearing something up to go fish the river... i thought Saturday the fishing was great in the same area you fished...so you just never know...I’ve been on the opposite side many times too.
  22. Just as an update... a guy at work...found a fuse I missed and made the ground better on the truck...everything works on the truck as of now...not plugging anything into it until I replace the wires on the trailer...thanks for the help
