  1. What kind of permit do you have that lets you do that?
  2. Ok thanks.
  3. I went to Cape Fair to look around yesterday. The Corps roads were still ice covered but the ramp and lot were dry. I don’t really care for cold muddy water so my thoughts are moving north. Do any of you know what the roads and ramps are like down in that area?
  4. One shot might be able to use one of those if he could find enough people to set it up.

    Cape Fair?

    If the roads clear and dry off I plan on giving Monday a shot.
  6. So does a 1 arm 1 leg man really need to take off to the river to go fishing? What if you fall like you just reported doing?
  7. I noticed that the water level is up some. What is the clarity and has it risen enough for floating debris?
  8. I have the Humminbird Mega Live but the weather has not cooperated with me very well. I like gadgets, thing of a ma bobs and do dads. I don’t know if it will help me or not but the thrill of trying something new and different is worth the time and money to me. What I am looking forward to doing is finding suspended bass and being able to see how they react to baits and presentations.
  9. I know that. If you had ever spent a morning in V-Mar farm store or Jerry Gipson’s barbershop you would understand what I am talking about.
  10. Those changes do not surprise me at all. You guys evidently have not spent enough time in that part of the world. Things are a bit different down there.

    Had I know that I known that I would have made you an offer on yours. However, I decided to go ahead and order one. Since it only had to come 20 miles it go here in 2 days.
  12. I read about one study and the guys using live view reportedly caught 1 more fish per day than those without.
  13. They missed it again here. How about where you live? We were supposed to be in for storms and heavy rain. We got the continuing wind and a few showers. Our big deal is the temp drop. We’ve dropped 25° in 2 hours. At 05:30 it was 59° and by 07:30 it had dropped to 34° with the wind now howling from the north instead of the south.

    Does are rarely harvested. If we ever get over populated that may change. He doesn''t gut them. He skins and debones them. Minimal moving of the guts to get to the loins. The antlers if wanted get cut off with or without the head. If the head is saved it will be for a European mount. Everything else gets left for the scavengers.
  15. I hope you have good luck. I tried wine making several years ago. I bought everything from a hobby wine maker in Nixa. The first gallon was some of the best I have ever had. The second gallon would give you so much heart burn that no one could do more than half a glass. There hasn't been a third gallon.
  16. That is an acquired taste. There is a winery just north of Walnut Grove that specializes in Meade. We stop by there occasionally and pick some up. I still prefer fruit over honey.
  17. You might stay at Lilly’s Landing. He owns and operates this site. Most of the good fishing that I have ever heard about is after midnight from the bank.
  18. I guess you got more moisture down there I don’t think we had enough for that kind of runoff.
  19. Nice day. Too windy for me today. Where is the jerk bait?

    That's not a problem. We have a roll up deer sled that I bought a long time ago. Tie a deer to it and 2 people can pull it over nearly anything.
  21. I’m not familiar with that trolling motor but that should have no effect on a 360 as it will be linked to the Humminbird. Is the 360 all you will have on the unit?

    We have Bland Spring running through the farm and can access it in many places if he wants water but I don’t know if that is a concern. It never was for me when I hunted. I’m thinking about them being able to get out of the wind or out of the weather in a shed if necessary.

    Deer hanger

    We’ve tried lots of ways to hang and dress deer. Last fall I watched my grandson and his wife dress a couple of bucks. It was an ordeal with the tow cable of my Kawasaki mule over a tree limb hooked to the deer. I’m planning to buy him something for his birthday and this has caught my eye. I can be attached to the mule or a pickup truck. It is supposed to be rated at 400#. Have any of you used anything like this? https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/hme-hitch-hoist-with-swivel-and-gambrel
  24. Bill what other options does he have for pairing up with a mega 360?
  25. I’ve only had one experience with bees. When we were renting the farm house some got in around the mortar and built a hive between the garage ceiling and one of the bedroom floors. I contacted some bee keepers and no one wanted them. Through the Green County Bee keepers assn. I found a guy who would come take them for $250. It was either that or kill them so I hired him. He estimated that there were 25-30,000 in that group.
