Thanks. I'll give Southwinds a shout

Any recommendations for lodging near Mutton Creek? Have always stayed around Stockton in the past.

The playing field is not really level unless all the boats are identical and set up identically. Tourney fishing is really becoming a rich man's game. Do the circuits still limit HP?

Video game versus knowledge/experience. The trait that used to separate anglers was their ability to find fish. Now the electronics find them for them. No longer the same game.

IS there a law that authorizes no fishing on a public body of water? Funny how the slip renters can fish off and around docks.

Neat

Congrats on 43 Billethead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! About 4 1/2 behind ya.

Good luck to the Rolla senior. Graduated from UMR in 83 long before the name change.

Guess I got lucky then.

If your kids end up lazy, entitled, and don't want to work I'd look to their upbringing.

Probably has no AC at home so she is taking a cooling break on your steak while texting.

Not sure what that is, but I'm pretty sure you can't possess raptor parts. Certain birds are off limits to possess.

Thanks for the info. May head to Stockton later this week

How deep are you trolling for the crappie?

Bill - Did you go back and see if they were still there? What an outstanding day you had.

Loved watching Giada. Never noticed she actually cooked.

Do you own the dock or just lease it? Tell them that it is your freedom of expression.

Probably don't want any tables, chairs, tiki bars, fridges, etc. that folks use to hang out on the dock. Don't want it looking like LOZ do ya?

Caught an 18 inch walleye on a buzzbait in a bass tourney. Not what I expected.

Love it when the local sweetcorn is in

Billet - that is an outstanding compilation of epicurean delights.👍

Apparently Master Bedroom, blacklist, plantation, and many other common English words are on the list to be removed. Does that mean terms like cracker will be a no go as well? How about the word Jayhawk? Nothing pleasant associated with that word either. I'm all for equality. Good people are good people. Has nothing to do with race, creed, gender, etc.

Car theft goes on at Walmart's in suburbia as well. My daughters car got stolen while sitting in line for an oil change. Walmart swears the keys were not left in it. BS. 100% sure it was an inside job as the perp got a phone call while on Walmart's security cameras near the gas pumps. Proceeded to walk several hundred yards across the main parking lot, around the side of the store, and directly to her car, opens the door jumps in and drives away. There were other vehicles sitting there as well, but he never checked a single car for keys. Somehow he knew exactly which car had the keys in it. Walmart employees did nothing but call management. By the time I was notified still in the store I found out no one had called the cops as "We aren't supposed to use the phone". Car as found 3+ weeks later in Johnson County, KS after the clown crashed it running from police on other charges. I believe the car theft was dropped as part of a plea deal on his litany of other charges including several drug charges, assault, fleeing from the cops, etc. System sucks. Walmart tried to lowball an offer, but paid a few grand in excess of FMV for the vehicle. Funny how quick she got a check when I threatened to involve the local news and give them some publicity. I hate thieves.

Native brookies are a fine fish to eat. Hatchery fed trout not so much. The hatchery fed fish are very good brined/smoked.

Private property - All should have been charged with TRESPASSING
