  1. Not a rock hound myself, so did a search on Lake Superior agates - saw some listings on Ebay, that stuff is worth a buck or two. Arrowheads can fetch a few bucks these days also. My grandparents had a farm in SE MO that had an indian mound on it, used to be able to pick up a lot of broken arrowheads on it when I was a kid. Used to find one every once in a while when chukkar hunting in WA state.
  2. I'm at that stage of life where I don't need to drink beer or eat BBQ to need to take a nap.
  3. What did you find there?
  4. Some great fish pics in this thread!
  5. Thanks - I'll put it on my "to read list".
  6. I thought this thing was dead? After living in WA state for 20 years and watching the decline of salmon and steelhead runs in the local rivers, the observation I've made is that you can have development or strong salmon runs, but you can't have both.
  7. Couple of nice bass, looks like it was a tad chilly for FL.
  8. I think it depends on the store, the Academy here in Rodgers is so-so as far as inventory. Better than Wally World for sure. Prices are good if they have what you are looking for. Good selection of sneakers that's usually what will get me to make the 25 mile drive.
  9. I like that idea of using a Gulp leech as a trailer, they look like they should work on a drop shot also.
  10. That rps can sure put some walleye in the boat.
  11. Too many big fish pics.. I'm starting to break out in a cold sweat...I feel a case of fishing fever coming on...I just wish the dang weather would warm up - Sunday is looking good!
  12. If a tournaments is held in Texas, watch out for that Keith Coombs.
  13. Just read another James brothers book - for some reason there's been a couple published lately. It's "The Lost Cause - The Trials of Frank and Jesse James." Author - James P. Muehlberger. Author talks about how hard it was to arrest and try the James brothers. Frank James, for example was tried twice but never convicted. No forensic evidence in those days, eyewitness testimony was unreliable as the robbers wore masks. Judges and attorneys received death threats, and in those days, jurors names and occupation were published in the local newspapers. If the posse didn't catch them right after the robbery, then it was almost impossible for the legal system as it was to arrest and try them. If a posse did catch a robber, it was a good chance there'd be a lynching. People got upset when their local bank was robbed, no FDIC in those days.
  14. Best all around fisherman is probably somebody none of us have heard of. Some of the all around guys I see mentioned here are famous, but that doesn't mean they are the best. You can look pretty good when you have the time and money to travel around and cherry pick the best fishing and hire a local guide to get you on the fish.
  15. Hogs got a big win last night, I didn't see the game unfortunately. They play well at home, but need to win some on the road to have a shot at the NCAA, IMO.
  16. Aaron Martens is a pretty darn good bass fisherman especially with finesse stuff.
  17. In my 2 years of fishing the Rock, my PB LM is 5.75 lbs., smallie 3 lbs. and a mean mouth that was just short of 3 lbs. 3.5 lbs. is my biggest spot.
  18. Thanks - too cold for me to fish today, so I'll just have to watch some videos.
  19. I've heard a lot of good stuff about the Lew's, Jason if you have time you'll have to know what you think of them compared to your Curados.
  20. Made the Leno show last night - The reason they landed where they did was because Chris Christie had closed the other airport. - Bada Boom!
  21. Matt look at post #24 in this thread, Champ has quoted the COE rules on fishing around docks - it is against their regulations to fish commercial docks at all.
  22. Nice looking bait, can't wait for the warm weather!
  23. They made the national news, at least NBC.
