  1. Or cloned himself..
  2. If the weather forecast is accurate, it's going to be a true "Polar Bear".
  3. Looks like bass to me.
  4. 15-20 is not a bad day. Seems like 2 weeks ago they were starting to move in, but now they seem to be backing off.
  5. Wouldn't be a bad idea for a reality show, start off with a bunch of contestants, each doing forecasts for their local area, say a week out, narrow it down on a weekly basis to an eventual champ. Might seem boring, but look at the success of the Weather Channel.

    What's Cooking?

    I'll have to research "spatchcooked". Used to catch shrimp in Puget Sound, always cooked them in Old Bay, very tasty. If anyone is bored, do a search on "Hood Canal Shrimp", several videos on there on the recreational fishery.

    What's Cooking?

    I love leftover turkey on a sandwich. White bread, mayo and turkey slices. I'm with you BH, should cook these things more often - and they are relatively cheap.
  8. Merry Christmas!

    Cooking a turkey today, have the old folks coming over. Never have baked one before, so wish me luck. Merry Christmas!
  10. Couple weeks ago caught a spotted bass on Table Rock that spit out a BRIGHT pink worm, looked like a Zoom Trick worm, but it was a little beat up so hard to tell the brand. Nobody around me at the time and as the fish had not swallowed it, it must have just picked it up right before I caught it. I'm guessing someone lost that worm in the past and that fish picked it on the bottom.
  11. They may not, but they'll eat it out of spite. Evil creatures they are.
  12. Never was close to a lot of the boats out there, but I did see one guy chucking that A-rig.
  13. Heckuva lot better than I did fishing up the White. I caught 7 bass on the Ned rig, good early bite, then they just quit on me. In compensation, it was about a nice a day for December as you can ask for. Lots of other fishermen out too. Saw the same temps up the White, 46-48.
  14. Well I hope he tipped you well for getting him on that record "smallmouth".
  15. I have not seen that one (probably due to commercial skipping), but sounds like a good one.
  16. I really hate it when I lose Unidentified Fishy Objects. (UFO). I really like to be able to identify what it was that got off.
  17. As I understand it this is a partial shutdown which does not involve the Department of Defense. COE reports to the DOD, so I don't believe we will see any closures at COE facilities. But I could be wrong. You could always call one of the COE field offices, there is one in Rogers and ask them. If there is a shutdown, you can still access the lake, just won't be able to use the COE ramps at the parks.
  18. Never caught one, but I hear they are good to eat.
  19. I asked an AGFC fisheries biologist that question and he told me these bass hybrids are capable of spawning.
  20. I watch too much sports on TV, been going the DVR route, so much better when you can skip past the commercials and halftime breaks. New fishing shows should start next month, so I'll watch some of those too. Don't watch too much other stuff as the above takes up most of my available time to sit in front of the LCD.
  21. Wasn't you, I know. I also think they are a neat fish whatever they are called and how they got crossed. Be pretty neat if there was a cheap, quick DNA test kit available to us to make a quick check before releasing them. Maybe something for Tackle HD to work on? 😜 Edit - I am not mad at anybody BTW.
  22. Fished with OA member Huntest (Dave) yesterday. We launched at dawn into a cold and foggy morning. Fog persisted for a couple of hours, but it warmed up once it burned off. Fishing was a bit slower than I expected, slower than last time I was out last week, but in compensation for the lower numbers, we did catch better fish on average. We caught somewhere between 15 and 20, with maybe half being keeper spots and one keeper meanmouth. We only caught one smallmouth - last time out there was a good smallie bite, but they were hard to come by yesterday - a head scratcher, and only one largemouth boated. All ned fish from chunk rock and bluff banks. WT was 48 if I remember correctly.
  23. Well I guess I am misinformed, I'll keep calling them meanmouth. If I tell people I caught a hybrid, they'll assume it's a white bass/striper cross.
  24. I think he should see if Wrench will trade him that boat for it.
  25. Yep, a master piece for sure. When that truck is ready for the boneyard, I hope onseshot pulls that tailgate off and hangs in on his living room wall. Or sells it at a Sotheby's auction.
