  1. Try cleaning and lubing the gun good??
  2. Fried sucker is better than liver fed trout any day.
  3. Wow, I am all electric and never pay more than about $250 in winter for heat. Summer is around $125.
  4. Don't know how big of a boat you are pulling, but as long as there is something solid under both wheels of the trailer, I can make it fit.. Turning the thing around is a little planning.
  5. Poor little birds. We never hunted the Doves, they were the bird of peace according to my Uncle that killed everything else.
  6. City pond in front of MDC Nature Center and Headquarters for SE Region. Managed by MDC, been there since I was in college in 81. Lower lake did same thing a few years ago and they revamped it. Actually did my first wedding on that one back in 93. Made a good place for that. Have some pics of me goofing around with flyrod and tux.
  7. Hard to catch anything there when its full. Doubt if there is anything to worry about.
  8. Department of Homeland Security, or Disabled Hillbilly Services?? The Federal Government really cracks me up sometimes.
  9. Been there, done that. Jerome and some little unknown dolittle area. We trolled up that one from that spot a few weeks ago, did not catch any of those little tiny spots. We were waiting for our turn to pull out and bored. Went to Uranus for Kicks. Did see a shoal runner sunk to the rails just below that bridge. That was interesting watching a tow truck driver trying to figure out how to drag it up the steep bank where it was docked.
  10. I use Permethrin as a treatment for hive beetles around bee hives. Spray it on the ground under the hives to kill the larva that drops out to morph into adults. But, it is toxic to bees, have to keep it off them and the hive.
  11. I run a 12v Motorguide X3 on my Tracker 17.5. I use the remote on my vest to control, works like a charm. When drifting on TN River, lock it in and retye a lure on if I break off or need to play a fish. I want to use the autopilot more, just don't fish it enough to play with it.
  12. If you had standard sized plumbing, it may have been cheaper.
  13. Kill a few and shuck the hides off of them. Make some nice boots.
  14. I try not to identify, just remain anonymous. Lurk in the shadows and wait to strike.
  15. Its a good lake, wish it was closer to me.
  16. Lots greener there, starting to dry up here.
  17. Had a pet Praying Mantis on the Hummingbird feeder one summer. I would feed him tomato worms and grasshoppers. Fun to watch him pounce on them. Horseflies are running rampant around here. Driving around they are pecking the windows. On the tractor this evening, they were all around it but not bothering me. Pecker Knats have been a pest in the back yard this summer in the garden. Had one up my nose today.
  18. Jacks would be pretty skinny for the paddle jon most of the year at any port. Too long for most of the runs.
  19. The Lord seems to look the other way in California. One of the first places to fall off the map when judgement comes...
  20. It's always nice during the week and fall. Akers to Round Spring is transitional water between cold trout and warmer bass. Pretty part, but never fished well. Alley to 2 Rivers is the float for this time of year. If you want solitude an fishing, Buck Hollow to Alley is fun if you can catch a shuttle.
  21. Was that last one dead for days or what? Black trout.
  22. Saw several nice ones last Friday nite at farm shortly after dark. Have some good dark skies there, minimal light disruption an no moon. Probably have some moon this weekend.
