Tempting, but I have so many JB's...

Yep, that is a good deal on them.

Old article about craws, mentions "clicking" noise craws make when walking on rocks. http://www.bassmaster.com/understanding-bass-forage-crawfish

Now that's a big brown.

The sample looks much better.

Saw this question on another board and was wondering what the Ozark fishermen think. Do rattles on jigs make a difference in your opinion? I never use them, but maybe I should try them?

They have the MO Craw color in stock at TW, colors look the same as the OP's link. Sure doesn't look like the original MO Craw. But, it still may be a color worth trying.

The fishing is tough for sure. Catching a few, especially if you only fish TR every once in a while, is not bad for this time of year.

Couple of nice brown fish. Last one possible mean mouth?

I think I know enough on this to be dangerous. I THINK the table prefix in the "g" in front of the dash in the table names, as in g_dname_date=1. Your table may have a different prefix than "g" and you have to adjust the command accordingly replacing the g with whatever the prefix is. So look at the table Core Groups and see if the table names are different, if so you have to change the prefix in the command for dname_ date=1, dname_changes=0, and dname_date=0. Maybe it's labled as wp_dname_date = 1. for example, in your database. I'd recommend doing a backup before making any table name changes. I'll see if I can find someone that knows SQL to see if they'll take a look at this. A SQL savvy type would know the answer to this right off the top of their head.

Nice one! I've got family coming into town so I won't get out for another week and a half, so my only fishing will be looking at reports. Looks the bite is picking up.

Or a Gunfish, but a tad less expensive.

New lure, just in time for the fall top water bite. It can "walk" and "spit" all at the same time! http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/6th_Sense_Crush_Dogma_100/descpage-6SDOG.html

Yep, 3rd week of October is great for the scenery, fishing may be a tad tougher than later, but it should still be decent. Deer firearms season runs from 11/14 - 11/24, good time to fish and less pressure. Just don't wear this hat if you're on the lake during firearms season:

I already have that jersey, and 10 others hanging in my closet. Hardest thing is deciding which one to wear to the Expo.

Good stuff, thanks!

Good job!

I remember watching the coverage and they showed Palaniuk fishing a point and lined up along the shore was about 10 of his family members watching. Should be pretty cool next year with the live coverage also. That's probably what I'll do Saturday and Sunday, watch the live coverage. Pretty cool to watch how they fish a local lake that I am somewhat familiar with.

That bow has been eating well! Nice browns, congrats!

Best day to go to the Classic Expo is the first day, if you can get off from work. I went last time it was at Grand (Expo is in Tulsa), if you wait until the weekend the place is packed shoulder to shoulder and you can hardly move. Also on the first day the exhibitors aren't that busy and the staff has time to talk. I talked to Gary Loomis, one of the Dobyns brothers and several pros. Got some free stuff also, best one was a book from ODFG that had topo maps of the major lakes in OK.

I had that look yesterday ^^^, and then a different look along with some strong language when I swung and missed.

Didn't notice many bait balls today, but there are minnows almost everywhere along the banks, I don't know if they are shad or not, but whatever they are, they are everywhere.

Got out this morning, threw the jig around, caught a dozen bass, but only one that would rate as a keeper. Mix of smallies, spots and LM. Missed a contender, just could not get a good hookset before it got off. Still getting them off chunk rock banks, in water 5 -15 feet deep. Water temps 79-81. Going through Roaring River park on my way to the lake, saw an air temp reading of 48. Chilly out there for an August morning!

Wow, some outstanding fish, congrats!

Wow, that is a biggun!
