  1. I am familiar with those websites. I was more curious as to why when you could buy it for around 7 bucks. The cheapest one was eighty five. I did find one for over 300$. I wish I would have bought a truckload at 7$.
  2. I was going to pick up another copy of the paddlers guide and couldnt find one. My dad looked it up on amazon and eBay cheapest one was 85$. It is under ten dollars. Anyone know what's going on with that.
  3. I am a big guy and when I do overnighters I take lots of stuff. That means I am flirting with spray all day. When I bounce off the bottom or a stray rock I get sprayed plugs are a good fix. Pop one out drain and done.
  4. I saw you on the other forum. They now have scupper plugs on the website specific to the coosa. Also a little side pouch that mounts under seat and against the sides. Just ordered both and should work them up this weekend along with some other stuff.
  5. look at this link nucanoe
  6. yep, that was me as well. when i am in a time crunch i do that short float. i didnt fish that much, caught one smallmouth right when i put in. just enjoyed the day, and boy did i get burned.
  7. Joe, are you in a solo old town canoe. If so we talked for a minute.
  8. I am planning on going to taney to wade fish for the first time. I have done plenty fo research, but the one thing i dont know is-- what will the rains do to the generation schedule for saturday morning until around noon. i know it would be speculation but that is better than what i have at the moment. I just want to make sure there wont be too much water running for me to enjoy myself. thanks in advance.
  9. i have caught some cats on the finley mostly on chicken liver on the bottom in deeper pools.
  10. I needed a new briefcase for work and I stumbled upon an article in a fishing mag. about Recycled Waders. They use breathable and some neoprene material from waders that people send in and what not. I ordered the messenger bag and I must say it has been a good conversation starter and is a very high quality item. Some clients and coworkers have ordered their own. Great story and very useable products, check them out.recycled waders
  11. i fish there and i put in at southwood access, right at 65. i usually paddle upstream and fish until i'm done . or my wife calls. i havent caught a lot on that stretch but some smaller stuff. i need to make it up to creighton and go up from there.
  12. i like to be prepared. all of that stuff only adds maybe 15-20 lbs to the yak, makes me feel better anyway. the fishfinder comes in handy to find structure and gives the temp of the water. i do some regular lake fishing in it and am going to hit some deep strip pits labor day weekend. helps me locate those under water fishy spots. i dont take all of that stuff everytime but when i go night fishing on the river i take backup goodies.
  13. So I finally decided it was time to buy myself a present, a new kayak. I had done exhaustive research on the subject and decided on the Mad River Synergy 12. What an awesome fishing kayak, so far so good. I have taken to Springfield lake a couple of times and also to Lake of the Ozarks. I can take all of the stuff i want and not be overloaded. I have some final rigging to do but for the most part it is perfect. I drove down to Ozark Mountain Trading Co. in Garfield, Ar to purchase it. I am glad that I made the drive, what a nice buying experience. The shops around spfd were not as helpful as I would have liked for dropping that kind of dough. I also saved some money and had a nice drive. I will try to post picks when I get it rigged out.
  14. You could go to Crane you will be fairly close. You will also be about 45 min from Capps. You could also make it to Bennett in about an hour or Roaring River will be a little over an hour.
