  1. Ditto. Kevlar and epoxy I got from NRS, but don't see it on their website after a Quick Look. Old Town lists a kit but you may not like the price https://oldtownwatercraft.johnsonoutdoors.com/us/shop/accessories-parts/parts-repairs-other/skid-plate-kit
  2. I don’t know anything about Table Rock, but I am a fan of hand-drawn maps. I’ve got a bunch of fishing and hunting maps and maps we use for travel. I think the process of drawing a map gets you plugged in better, and only adding the detail that’s important to US is a real plus.
  3. Cool to see they're doing the deed ❤️ in OK! Biologists catch a lot of flack when they say, 'No evidence of a breeding population' because so many knuckleheads shorten that to 'No evidence of a population' and just call them liars/idiots. Not anybody here, of course.
  4. Like they do in the drug commercials on TV
  5. @ZachPinnell Any relation to Walt?
  6. I wanna know why Daryk got three stonefly thingies! This wasn’t a swap, it was a swindle!!🤪
  7. It's like opening day at Bennet Spring!

    As I've said before, you've just never had them prepared right.

    My current longest lens is a 55-200 mm and I'm on an APS-C sensor (Fujifilm X system), so 82-300 mm full-frame equivalent. Most systems have a pretty reasonably priced zoom in that range. I've gotten some pretty good pics right off our deck or in the yard at 200. The first few of these were on a tripod and triggered remotely with a pretty inexpensive bluetooth remote. Tame hummingbirds with a point & shoot City ducks and geese at the local lake at 200 mm on an old Nikon D200. Not exactly sure what this Florida bird is, but this was at 200 too.
  11. Why fish when fish sticks are so readily available ??

    The longer the better. Think expensive

    Up close and personal at a bird sanctuary. That's me in the pupil in an orange shirt. And, the fastest animal

    This cool, wet spring has us swimming in lettuce. Lots for neighbors and friends and plenty for wilted lettuce too. With steak and tater salad.
  15. Oh my, that’s a beautiful boat! Nice job!! Good luck with her.
  16. Cool cinnamon coat on that one!
  17. Not sure how he got from Grandview to Stilwell, but it’s a long walk. But I suppose that’s the only way a bear gets anywhere, and they’ve got lots of time on their paws.
  18. We’ve had young one wandering around south KC for a couple weeks. Spotted fairly close to my office and also near our Grandview branch. Crazy!

    Memorial Day Eve Ok, hear me on this. MIL loves KFC as did her late husband. So, there’s memories attached with our Memorial Day meal.
  20. I’ve tied on a Regal pedestal and I really liked it. I really like a pedestal vice. I like the bobbin holder okay on the traveler. It’s nice, but does annoy me at times. It’s easy to swing out of the way though.
  21. Wait…you tie flies?😀

    Kudos to @rps who planted the muffuletta idea here a few years back.
  23. I think the best medicine for tennis elbow, or other forms of tendonitis, is rest. More than you think you need. As far as fly casting, I have learned it pays to de-emphasize power and focus on timing and rhythm. Perfecting that will get you control, accuracy and distance without wearing out your elbow or shoulder.

    More muffuletta but with the ciabatta. It made a big difference and was much better.
