Beat Verlander in he finale. The Royals are going to need a 2nd half surge like they had last year.

Here's a link to a BBC thread about hair jigs: http://www.bbcboards.net/bbc-lounge/499478-hair-jigs-anybody-make-deep-water-one.html

I think it has to do with jumping wakes, get a bunch of boats together and generate a bunch of wakes for the tubes and skiers to jump over.

Are you thinking of smaller jigs or large ones? The ones the boys have been throwing in the TVA lakes are 4 -6" long.

Welcome!

Saw the 2nd half, good game and thankfully it wasn't decided by penalty shots.

No, and probably never will. But I've seen videos.

Nice bunch of fish, I hear you on the traffic in the White channel, it's annoying during the week, can't imagine what it's like on the weekend.

Another choke...

Glad to hear the wife is recovering, and also good to hear you got out and caught some fish!

That looks tasty!

That is pretty good for this time of the year - best drop shot report I've heard so far this summer.

Sounds like it's still a bit tough, I thought with the full moon it might get the night bite going.

Good to hear there's some top water activity.

Well they've dropped the first two with Detroit.

I hate ticks...

I used to fish the alpine lakes in Washington, they do get fished, and in general need to be stocked every 3 - 5 years depending on fishing pressure. Some great fishing can be had, but there are times when you make that 5 mile hike and find the lake you want to fish has been fished out. In some of the lakes the trout reproduce, and can do well on their own, usually they have a feeder stream to spawn in, others where they can't spawn, get stocked. Recently, they've stopped stocking the lakes in the national parks in Washington, as in their natural state, they did not contain trout. The trout can prey on native salamanders, and frogs and what not, so no more trout stocked in those lakes. The state did some airplane stocking, but in recent years they've made back pack portable plastic bags that are filled with water and air, and can hold 500 fingerlings. Volunteers carry them in to the lakes that are still stocked and release them.

Those little dudes get around. Looks like a great trip!

You're reading more into my response than I meant. I never said anything about being entitled to it (the land) forever. As I understand it, these leases run for 10 years. So, if the lease was paid for, and the rules were being followed by the person holding the lease - and before the lease expired the feds swooped in and expelled the lease holder, then yes I might have sympathy with the holder. I'd at least want to know if there was a valid reason for the expulsion, before assuming that the federal government is making the correct decision.

But, in all seriousness, I can see where having one of those bow fishing rigs getting too close at night would be irritating.

Everybody cuts me off, as a matter of fact, a couple of ducks landed on the water about 100 yards ahead of me the other day - that really made me mad! Turtles sunbathing on logs really set me off also. I don't know why, but they just really irritate me.

Now he's mired in an Oh fer 18 slump. Watched the game last night and Raul looked completely baffled at the plate. Sorry to see it, but he may have reached his expiration date.

Well if he wasn't paying the rent, why is it surprising they wanted him off? If he was paid up and they were trying to run him off, he'd get my full sympathy.

Man, I need to get over to Beaver and throw the Ned! Dtrs5kprs is to blame for Nedmania
