Fourth of July dinner. Lamb kabobs with onions, zucchini, squash, tomatoes, and pineapple. Washed down with some elderberry mead.

We sold our fifth wheeler and my wife said surely you don’t need that big old 3/4 ton truck anymore. Why don’t you go get a new 1/2 ton. I love that woman.

Shimano is all that I own.

Maybe some of our local dealers and gang bangers will head up north.

looking for a bunch of gar
Dutch replied to Monster Fishing Arkansas's topic in General Angling Discussion
I see lots of them at Pom north of Nemo on the west side in the great big flat cove. Don’t throw them back. -
I have a rain check that is a couple of months old on a life jacket.

That depends on what you are running besides the motor. If nothing or near nothing, then go with the CCAs recommended by your motor mfg. If you have serious electronics you may need a biggun.

All you need to do is rig an Elaztech worm shaky and you witt find flatheads. I am getting one every trip.

New vehicle and boat!
Dutch replied to moguy1973's topic in Tips & Tricks, Boat Help and Product Review
Those wouldn’t be Amish. There are several groups in SWMO who do some modern and some 1800s stuff. I’ve had several from Monett do work for me. -
A guy showed me a pic of a cat from the rock that they called a blue. I just smiled. It was a flat head.

Best Place to Live in Hickory County
Dutch replied to Sandhills Hunter's topic in Pomme De Terre Lake
Personally I’d live in Bolivar. Then I could go to Pom or Stockton easily. -
That is a nice one. Congrats.

If it were mine I would for sure have a charger for every battery in the boat, but not a fan of trickle chargers. 10-15 amps for me.

Yep when I started golfing instead of fishing some time ago one of the guys commented about my buying a new set of clubs and a golf cart. I looked at him and replied, “ the prop on my boat cost more than this set of clubs”.

Wow my bass fishing report took 2 lefts a right then fell in a hole.
-
Thanks. I always have a jigging spoon on deck but I haven’t seen stuff to drop it on.

A new sonar gps unit can do way more than a tv. Used units go for a lot less. Bass Boat Central and Bass Resource have listings all the time.
-
Thanks for the compliment. I probably just got lucky. I hope to get back Wednesday or Thursday to see if I can find some more. I believe that the wind was the key.. The little guy hasn’t been productive for me lately but I’ve been using my new standup shaky jig a whole lot. Let me know how it goes with the frog. I believe that my weakest link is the off shore stuff. It may be a patience thing. Winter with a jigging spoon is about it for me.
-
I haven’t been since Thursday. It was good at Stockton for us. We had 20 bass with 14 keepers. I am not able to go until Tuesday or Wednesday but if the wind is 10+ then I am on it.

The hydrometer will show the specific gravity of each cell instead of the total battery.
-
If you have flooded cell batteries, a hydrometer is a good thing to own.

Fully charged 12 v batteries should be 12.7 volts whether cranking, deep cycle, or dual puropse. Just like the chart that wrench posted. I am running the biggest battery that I could find, North Star X2. It is the only one I could find that would support my electronics and hold enough charge to make it through the day even if I weren’t running live well pumps.
-
Wrench is correct about the voltage shown. Unless you have been out all day and not running your engine to build the battery back up you are too low. I try to never let my battery get below 12.4 volts. When it does I am going for a ride. I don’t know anything about that stator stuff but you should have 12.7 volts when your battery is fully charged.

In the bushes some. It is only 5’ high and dropping a couple of inches daily.

I took my neighbor to Stockton today. We threw spinner baits (no love), jigs (no love) and shaky on my new standup jig (lots of love). We caught 20 lmb and 1 smb. I had 9 keepers from 2-2.75 #. My neighbor had 4 keeper lmb and a 2.5 smb. He lost 4 keepers on the way to the boat. Worm color didn’t matter. The fish were on windy spots from about 8-20’ deep. We tried a few brush piles and couldn’t get bit.
