Curtis this could've been you. @curtisce Lake Oahe, 7 lb. 4 ounce, 20.75 inches.

A couple for Mr. Folly: A man walks into a pet store and asks for a dozen bees. The clerk carefully counts 13 bees out onto the counter. "That's one too many!" says the customer. The clerk replies, "It's a freebie." The wife and I took up woodworking. A friend said he didn't know we were carpenters. We told him, "We've only just begun."

You are doing well!

Dang, those are some nice trout!

I planted onions one time from sets, planted them in the spring and they came in well. I planted what was supposed to be some sort of super sweet variety but the onions I got were just plain old white onions, nothing special about them. If they had been really sweet like Vidalias I would plant them again, but as you all have noted, plain white onions are cheap at the store.

Had one buzzing about 50 feet above me one day while fishing Beaver a couple of years ago. It hung around me for a good 15 minutes. Didn't know I was that attractive.

Sorry to hear that you'll have to give her away, cute dog.

Great report and lot of good info!

Looks like one, but hard to tell, you need to get a lot closer for a better pic. Or you could pick it up and toss it in the water, cottonmouth float real high on the water. 😃

That's the same as my buddy (not mentioning any names), stuck a top water in the top of the head of the guy he was fishing with, they went to the ER at Mt. Home and the doc wanted the lure for the wall, but it was a special top water so they didn't give it to the doc.

One thing I miss about my time in Washington were the fresh apples.

Caught one myself earlier this year. No idea what causes it. I'll send out the Bat alert for JF @Johnsfolly

I've had them nip at the stalks but never had a problem with them eating the tomatoes until this latest incident.

Crossing the bridge over Little Sugar on HWY 71 Friday afternoon, saw a MODOT employee looking over the edge of the bridge, and then here comes a couple of cops, sirens on. Went in to Walmart and got what I needed and on my way back over the bridge, looked upstream and saw a pickup on a 45 degree bank front end into the water with water up to the windshield. Dunno why or how, but there it was.

A couple of hundred yards down the road from me is a cul-de-sac where one of the regulars parks to walk into his stand. Just saw him drive by, bet he is out to work on his set-up or maybe put some trail cams out. No firearms can be discharged in the Bella Vista limits, unless it is at the gun ranges, but you can bow hunt here. Open to the public, probably too far away for most of you, but if not, come down and get some, got a doe near my house that ate all my cherry tomatoes, that deer needs killing.

Nice trip, I talk to someone that fishes about everyday and it has been tough, I'd be real happy with a morning like yours. So what exercises do you do to get into "guide shape". 😀

Looked at the Regatta listing and there was a night tourney (40 boats) going out of Indian.

Saw this on the AR district Corps Facebook page: We turned off hydropower generation from Bull Shoals and Norfork power plants earlier today because of an incident downstream. We are doing everything we can to assist local authorities. We do not have any further details at this time. We plan to bring both power plants back online at full power in the morning. Those downstream of the dams can expect heavy generation off and on tomorrow. Please be advised that these may be very unusual flow patterns. Fishermen and floaters are urged to immediately move to higher ground when the horns below the dams are sounded. Do not wait for the water to start rising before taking action. We regret any inconvenience this may cause. Water levels can be found by downloading our smartphone app or using our website.

Dang, was curious about that triple rig, going to try it for sure, thanks for reporting the results.

One on each point of a treble. I might try this out on TR, maybe with three finesse worms. Give John Murray’s Triple Drop-Shot a Shot - Major League Fishing

If you want to see a LOT of points, visit the Golden museum in Golden MO. It's all stuff that was found by artifact hunters. So many points that you'll get tired of looking at them. They also have some stuff from Mexico and Central America, points and tools made from green jade (I think it is jade). It's free and there is hardly ever anybody in there if you go during the week.

Yep.
