If the umbrella rig is legal in AR, I don't see how they can deny it's a world record.

I can't wait for the weather to get cold, that's the only thing that gets the idiots off the lake.

Great to see the youngster getting into some fish! That Yammie/Road Runner combo looks like a killer combo, I'm thinking that might fool a bass or two on Table Rock.

I've been using them on 1/4 oz ball heads. I put a drop of superglue on the head to hold them on, darn things are soft and tear up easily. One of these days I'm going to try them on a c-rig.

Sorry to hear this, hopefully they'll find him soon.

Very little generation the last couple of days - coincidence?

That has me scratching my head, they were biting real well Thursday AM, I would have thought with the rain Friday and cool weather today the bass would put on the feedbag. Shows you what I know..

Cassel stunk, no doubt about it. If Smith can get the ball to Bowe, good things could happen. I seem to remember hearing commentary that Smith could not hit WR Michael Crabtree on long routes in while playing in SF. That concerns me.

I've got squirrel problems this year, never had much of a problem with them in the past, but this year they have been going after the tomatoes. Live trapped 3 of them and relocated them, but still a couple more left that are tomato eaters. can't shoot them, unfortunately, as I live in a no-firearms-discharge city.

I'm hoping that their record is at least good enough that they'll be playing meaningful games late in the season. You never know, but I'd be more confident if they had a solid QB.

Could have been methed up, methed up people do inexplicable stuff.

Hmmm, next time I'm by the Rogers COE office I'll have to drop in and see what they have.

Looks like this could be a good alternative to the Fish Doctor or centipede. I'm not sold on the "Back Slide" feature, but I like some of the colors and the addition of some small appendages. http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Berkley_Havoc_Ikes_4_Back_Slide/descpage-BIBS.html

That is a very spotted brown.

Nice one!

Does it show springs? The COE "book" that is.

Welcome!

I see this team as a big question mark. I definitely have concerns about Alex Smith, but I'm hoping Reid can at least make him a good "game manager" type QB. It's possible Reid can turn Jaamal Charles into the KC version of LeSean McCoy, There are some weapons on offence, just need a QB that can get the ball to them and not turn the ball over. KC's D is decent. Also have to hope Smith doesn't get hurt or stink really bad, because there's nothing backing him up. Looking at the schedule I see 7 winnable games against the likes of the Jags, Browns, Oakland (twice). But they'll probably lose 2 of those games at least, the remaining 9 against tough opponents, maybe they'll win 2 of those - so I have them for 7 wins. If Smith gets hurt or stinks, who knows? We could be looking at another 2 win season. Might be better for the future if they tank again next year, maybe there will be a "franchise" QB available in the 2014 draft. KC needs to get that franchise QB to build around. I hope Smith can be the guy, but I have doubts.

Welcome!

I just look at rocks in he water and make a guess

This is just an approximation, but down lake from Big M a couple of miles it's 8 -10 feet, up lake (or up the White) it's less, maybe 6 feet. Haven't been up past Eagle Rock.

I hear you, come on October! Speaking of loud music, a pontoon boat cruised by me about 10 AM, 200 or so yards away, playing some Stevie Ray Vaughan, it was loud and clear even at the distance I was from him. Good sound system apparently. I like Stevie Ray, but not at 10 AM when I'm trying to fish.

Thanks for the report, great to see some bass being caught!

The day started off with a really good Largemouth bite. They bit well until about 0930 on the jig. I was using War Eagle heavy finesse jigs in 3/8 oz. GP and orange, or what they call "Pond Scum Perch" were good colors. Chunk rock banks and docks were putting out fish. Got around a dozen LM's on the early bite with 9 or 10 being keepers, biggest 3 lbs. After 0930 things really slowed down, picked up 4 or 5 sublegal spots, and a couple of smallies with one being a decent keeper - again all on the jig. I believe the relatively cool weather and the rain has gotten the LM's stirred up, I'm hoping with rain in the forecast for tomorrow and a few more cool days his bite will continue. Surface temp was 82 early, warming to 84 when I left. Lots of pleasure craft again today, maybe I don't remember last year too well, but it seems there's a lot more boats out there this year. Did not fish off the points or try a drop shot, but saw several boats doing that so I'm assuming that bite is also working.
