  1. As punishment for making that video, Edwin and KVD should have to spend Saturday afternoon drop shot fishing out of a 16' Tracker on the main lake by the dam. After about an hour they'll be cursing boats like that cruiser.
  2. So much depends on context. One of the lakes here in Bella Vista has too many 12" bass according to the lakes biologist. They encourage harvest. Swepco lake had a bad over population of large mouth a few years ago, AGFC encouraged (and still does) harvest. And the bass fishing has improved as far as better quality fish. Maybe 10 duck hunters put together that bunch of ducks from a days hunt. No one should be a game hog of course, but it helps to have context behind a picture of harvested game.
  3. Oops, yeah Tuesday shows zero from midnight until 0900.
  4. If I am reading this chart correctly (maybe not), it looks like for tomorrow the zero generation is from 9 PM to 12 AM. http://www.swpa.gov/gen/wed.htm
  5. Think it was someone bow fishing?

    What's Cooking?

    Should change the name to "Deep Dish Egg casserole" - sounds more manly.
  7. Landbigfish.com (daily special) has WE double willow and tandem willow SB's on sale for $4.87 each. I'm not buying any as I have plenty, but I know a lot of guys throw them and like them and that is a pretty good price.
  8. He made the cut, not sure what you mean by original field?
  9. I second this.
  10. Not for me either, but looking forward to hearing the story at the next Jigfest.
  11. I believe it is the top 12.
  12. I have never broken a basses jaw using a Boga either. I use it occasionally to weigh a fish, not as a landing device. Very accurate at weighing. If you are reasonably careful you won't injure a fish using a Boga. I doubt I would ever use one on a trout, being IMO a fragile species when it comes to handling. I use genuine Bogas, I can't speak for the knock-offs.
  13. Looks to be a bad one for sure. Might be a good time to fill up as gas prices are predicted to jump.
  14. Yep and throwing more gubmint money will not bring down tuition rates, they'll increase.
  15. They have the same access, as a matter of fact I think it was tougher to get accepted into college then, at least that's my impression, colleges seemed to be more selective. And with what, a ten fold increase in tuition rates since I went in the 80's, there doesn't seem to be an equal improvement in what students receive. Granted there is inflation, but prices haven't increased 10 fold since the 80's except in health care.
  16. Why should tuition be so high? Lower tuition, lower the barriers. .
  17. Yeah I spent time working for Uncle Sam which got my tuition paid for, when I got out, I worked during the day and went to school at night.
  18. I "swung for the fences" and went for some lesser known dudes. Swing and a miss!
  19. I have nothing to add, went with a buddy today and we got 6 bass between the two of us. We did get three decent ones, couple of small mouth and a large mouth that all were 2 lbers. A least the weather is decent and the wake boat traffic is not as bad as a few weeks ago. I am ready for November.
  20. Do the young girls of today think they are sexy? Can't see any reason to get them unless the ladies like them.
  21. I watched the forecast last night and the guy did not think we would get anything significant here, but looks like according to that map, we could see some precip.
  22. So if you're slashing university budgets, shouldn't we also see a slash in tuition rates? Students might be behind a tuition decrease. Instead the answer to high college cost is to have the government spend more money - which doesn't do anything to increase the quality of education, or rein in cost.
  23. I have to disagree with you on the AR game. They remember that embarrassing loss last year to Mizzou.
  24. Nope, not watching. But I admit I will check out the results the next day.
  25. Good fishing for August!
