  1. They used Italian Alpine marble for those rocks. Very expensive stuff. The chicken poop filtration plant that they had to place up stream wasn't cheap either..
  2. Welcome!
  3. Good to see folks having a good time. Nice fish BTW.
  4. Thinking about this a little more; I'm more of an "opportunity" fisherman. If the weather is decent and I have time to go, I'll go. I might anticipate the fishing to be bad/good depending on the barometric reading, but I'll go anyway.
  5. It was interesting to listen to Bobby Knight do the analysis - that guy can't stop coaching.
  6. Not only a high pressure day, but windy and cold. No fishing again for me today.
  7. I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.
  8. I can deal with a cold front if the big ones are biting!
  9. Mizzou just could not get over the hump. Vandy was hitting their threes and doing a good job on the glass.
  10. I'm thinking an 8-9 lb. fish at that length/girth.
  11. Nice ones!
  12. Appears to be on ESPN tonight, got it set to record, I like being able to FF thought the commercials and half time.
  13. I've never been a fan of the tourneys during the spawn myself, but the bass bios all say it doesn't hurt the numbers of fish fry that hatch overall. I have always wondered if removing the larger fish from the river arms and hauling them down lake somewhere to be released does have an effect on the overall average size of the fish in the river arms. I know that a lot of guys I talk to think that there is better quality down lake than say up the White river arm.
  14. I have to remember that one - "Hey get out of here, you're in the way of my backcast!" Sheesh, that really takes the cake.
  15. Yep you can't keep them these days (legally) if it's any kind of public land. Private land you need permission.
  16. I like those beady little eyes.
  17. Thanks for the report, looking out the window I can see the trees swaying back and forth. No fishing for me today (or tomorrow).
  18. 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.
  19. I'm at that stage of life where I don't need to drink beer or eat BBQ to need to take a nap.
  20. What did you find there?
  21. Some great fish pics in this thread!
  22. Thanks - I'll put it on my "to read list".
  23. 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.
  24. Couple of nice bass, looks like it was a tad chilly for FL.
