I've tested the ethanol free gas I get here in AR - a couple of times- and it is indeed ethanol free. If you have doubts, it's a real easy test to run.

Great fish pics!

Dutch and myself put in at Big M at 0530 loaded for walleye. After fishing the ends of several docks that were over deep water, and a few other deep places we realized we weren't going to catch any walleye so we bass fished for a couple of hours. There's one little pocket that holds bass this time of year, we pulled several out of that spot on top waters, jigs and the c-rig and that was the best action we had all morning. We were pulling up at the dock about 10 AM as the temps were rising and the pleasure boats were swarming. We caught 9 Kentucks, 2 of them were keepers. Lots of vehicles heading in the direction of the Rock as I was driving home. Going to be a busy holiday weekend I reckon. WT 86

Blue cats are great eating.

All of a sudden I am seeing Tesla trucks here and there. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and this beholder thinks they are one ugly vehicle.

Thanks for the trip! It was a nice morning to be out.

That's a bunch of corn. My mom's side of the family were farmers and they had a trading network with other SE MO farmers. There's was always someone growing sweet corn and my grandma would pick a bunch and make homemade creamed corn and can it. It was good.

And the patients themselves, we aren't a nation of marathon runners. If we had true health insurance, those with high risk factors would pay more.

Yep, bust at my house too. Heard quite a few back in the woods around the lower end of Beaver, but never saw them.

If you'd quit all that water skiing, snow skiing, playing soccer and basketball you wouldn't be dislocating your hip all the time.

I believe I heard that too.

Just looked at their recent stock history. Gone from $92 in April to $72 yesterday.

Those Z-Man baits are great!

Great pic!

I'll definitely pick up some 1.8" Ought to be good for crappie.

I have no idea what clinical ketosis is, something to lookup as I have never heard of that.

Can't confirm it myself, but have heard that there are a lot of boats sitting on dealer's lots. Demand was high, now it is not. It's a lousy deal for the people being laid off for sure.

That's a great trip!

Is that when you run out of anything else to eat except for sardines (for 3 days)?

In the summer the guides do fish the crawlers. If I'm targeting walleye, I don't want no stinking bass messing with it.

I know Tom's boat on sight but not sure of the brand. I think it's a Skeeter. He moved out of the Ranger quite a while ago.

It opened my eyes up to how deep they can be. Just watched some drop shot for walleyes videos. Looks to be a great way to fish a crawler deep.

That thing looks like a trap. You get 100 yards into that field and the farmers pet bull, a retired rodeo bull, looks out and sees what appears to him to be a rodeo clown in his pasture. How fast can you run wearing waders? 😃

The one I caught deep would have needed to be fizzed.

Even though I wasn't expecting a lot of fish catching this morning, I had to get out and take advantage of a nice, cool morning. 66 degrees at the ramp when I launched at 0530 and did it feel good! Fishing for me was slow, caught some right away with a c-rigged craw on a gravel point up shallow, and then one here and there on the craw and drop shot. Then things got real tough about 0900 or so. "Walleye Tom" and his wife were out there today, they've been catching walleye fishing spoons really deep as in 50-80 feet deep. I fished near them for a bit and watched them spoon up a couple of eyes and a couple of bass and I could not get a bite on a drop shot or Keitech fishing near them. Started bouncing a spoon myself and finally caught a keeper sized walter in 60 FOW right off the bottom. By then it was 1030, the skiers were out and it was time to go. Caught 13 bass (no keepers) and two walleye. WT 85.
