    Thanks, bookmarked the website. What a beautiful fish!

    I like your analysis. You can fish with guides and somehow it works out that in the end, it's free! 😀

    Know any tarpon guides? That's another thing I want to do, catch a big tarpon or two.

    Getting some rain here this AM.

    Used to do a couple of jet boat trips a year for winter steelhead in Washington. It was a lot cheaper then, $200 per day. Certainly beat having a jet in the garage that I would only use a dozen times a year. Guides would supply all the tackle and bait too. You'd just have to show up at the launch with your rain gear and lunch. Once I get freed up where I can travel for fishing trips I plan on going places and hiring guides. Gulf, Great Lakes, Fork, Rayburn to name a few places I'd like to fish.

    It used to be a person didn't need a license to fish the salt. The good ol' days.

    If I was going to hire a guide, I would certainly consider Pete Wenners, mainly because I have watched so many of his video reports.

    Ya'll are getting a lot more than down here in NW Arkansas. Couple of hard showers early and that has been it.

    Doing a little research on this and it appears it is an algae bloom. That's my best guess. 😀 An algal bloom is a rapid increase in algae growth that can occur in freshwater and marine environments. Algal blooms can be green (see image above), blue, red, or brown and sometimes they are so bright that it looks like a layer of paint is covering the surface of the water. Many algal blooms release toxins, but some are non-toxic. Algal Blooms - Missouri Coalition for the Environment (moenvironment.org)

    Been pretty dry here. I would like to see 1 to 2 however, not 4-5.

    I've had flounder rolls in restaurants. Roll a fillet around some stuffing, bake it and pour some kind of sauce over it. Never made it, just ate it, so I could not tell you how it's done. Probably a recipe out there on the web.

    Great fish! I have been thinking about the wacky Senko myself, just have not thrown it.

    One of those days where you wonder does anyone work anymore? I saw seven or eight bass boats being towed towards the lake on the way home. Dutch got big fish of the day with a 3.5. I hooked onto a monster "something", it wasn't a bass, an un-stoppable force that swam off the bank (slowly) and swam under the boat and found a tree to get me hung up in. Big cat or maybe a drum is my best guess.

    The ned was working last time out and so was a wake bait. 2.8 and 3.3 swim baits ought to also work. I have no advice for fishing when the lightning is crackling as I tend to skedaddle in those situations.

    Different spot than where I saw them.
  16. Quillback
    Thanks for the pics!
  17. Quillback
    HA! You could put me on a crappie spot with a thousand crappie swimming around and I might catch two of them.
  18. Quillback
    That is one nice looking rig!

    In the long run, we're all dead.

    Black Trick worm was my dad's favorite bait.

    No way, no how, am I growing turnips and rutabaga. One day after bird hunting my buddies wife made us some beef stew that featured turnips, rutabaga, and carrots. She was so proud of it I had to force myself to eat it and act like it was really good. Plus it was all there was to eat and I was starving after walking all day.

    Fat but fit is how my DR described me. Even so, I need to lose some weight. Yeah checkups are free with insurance. Blood tests too. And with the wonders of the internet, you can analyze the numbers yourself, if you don't trust the DR's.
  23. Quillback
    That's good. No need for more pressure. Not that it would make a difference anyway.
  24. Quillback
    Nice bow!

    Trey McKinney doing well yet again. He's not on my team of course.
