Great stuff! Those fish are just crazy fat, really good to see those healthy fish.

I'd say bring 2 if it is not too much trouble, thanks!

Welcome!

That is a sweet looking underspin.

Thanks - I'll have to look that one up.

Yeah they are, but seemed to be an uptick in numbers last year due to the weather being more bird friendly.

That trade surprises me a bit, I thought they would give Bradford one more year.

I heard they were down there last year. Can't remember what lakes. Looking forward to the show.

From what I can tell, it comes with one spool which is both braid ready and designed to also better manage floro. I would call whatever retailer offers it and check on that.

Ok, cross Pflueger off your list.

I picked up several of the "old" model Pflueger Supremes, so far I like them just as much as my one and only Stradic. $79 right now in Cabelas Bargain Cave. But, the last couple of months they have bumped them down to $59 (which is a steal). Seems to be no pattern as to when they drop the price to 59, you just have to watch the Bargain Cave. You can get the Supreme "XT" for 119 in the Cave, it's a bit lighter, but other than that I think it is internally similar to the regular Supreme. I've only had mine for a couple of months, so I can't say if they are durable over the long term. Compare reel weight of the Supremes to comparably sized reels in other brands, the Supremes compare well to more expensive reels. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Bargain-Cave/Fishing/Reels%7C/pc/105591780/c/105740280/sc/105742980/Pfluegerreg-Supreme-Spinning-Reel/1254593.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Freels%2F_%2FN-1102770%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_105742980%3FWTz_l%3Dundefined%253Bcat105591780%253Bcat105740280&WTz_l=undefined%3Bcat105591780%3Bcat105740280%3Bcat105742980

I've always wondered why pheasant aren't found south of roughly the MO/Iowa border area. Here's some speculation from MDC. covhqspring2015.pdf

I've tried to watch it a couple of times and I did not like it at all.

Yes interesting to hear some are moving into the coves. Wish the water would start warming up.

Roster is updated.

It sure will be interesting to see where DGB goes in the draft. Could be late 1st round.

Thanks for the report, that's some good fishing!

Interesting you got some on the drop shot, Fishingaddicition, I haven't tried the drop shot since the fall. After watching Omori catch some on the DS at the Classic, and seeing your report, I might have to start toting the DS around. I have trouble thinking of it as a cold water tactic.

Dave - I was thinking you'd have a booth there.

Looking at the mock drafts, the prognosticators seem to think the Chiefs will draft a safety #1. Case being that it looks unlikely Eric Berry will ever be able to play again.

Wow, I'm also surprised they are back, but I like it. The Expo is definitely worth going to, if you can go Thursday or Friday it is much less crowded.

20 lb. bag, very impressive.

Maybe Maclin will give the Chiefs that down field play maker they have been lacking. Also makes me wonder if this means adios to Dwayne Bowe.

Ozark Anglers time machine - spring forward a day into the future and catch a striper! Nice fish!
