  1. I haven’t had a largemouth that looked spawned out. I’m not even seeing fish that look like they have been making beds. However, the kys are full of eggs.
  2. Ssshh I’m trying not to think about that part.
  3. I’m betting that things change for a few days after the cold front passes and mile high skies and north winds return.
  4. I hat to have them around when I am trying to fish at night.
  5. I did the same thing in the afternoon. I caught 22 with 5 keepers. I fished jerks, jigs, spinnerbait and no love at all. I gave them from 12:30 to 1:30 then pulled out the Elaztech. I boated a spot on the first cast. My fish came from 1:30 to 4:30. I was getting hungry so I headed on home. PB&J was best but GP candy was pretty good. All of my fish were off the main lake close to secondary points. I couldn’t get a bite deeper than 8’.
  6. I already did that when the Lew’s store closed. I emptied the shelf on some of the baits that I use a lot. I tend to be overstock.com on too many things.
  7. Another reason for me to be glad that I switched to Pro Guide.
  8. I hate to clean fish. Luckily I have a friend who will clean them on the halves. So when I save whites he gets half of them and I get cleaned frozen fillets.
  9. I went through a similar deal with Interstates. I went to Marine Repair Center and bought 3 Pro Guide agm batteries. They have 245 rc. I have been using them for a few months. They are super strong and are recharging in just a couple of hours. I am totally satisfied with them. Did you buy the boat locally? Can you get the original owner to get it warrantied? Maybe you could sell the one that is new.....just some random thoughts.
  10. I’d be glad to see them go to some kids who could get good from them. I am sending you a pm.
  11. Oh yes oh yes. And you would have owned that prop whether you wanted it or not. You might call some marine dealers. Some of them have props. We used to have at least 3 dozen laying around.
  12. Beg your pardon, Ozark. I won’t ever go to that aforementioned place again.
  13. I went to fishing because catch and release is hard to do when hunting.
  14. I did. I won’t ever do it again. I have heard good things about the guy in Nixa.
  15. We probably can work something out. Most of them haven’t been wet. I bought them when a bud got sick and couldn’t cast. I thought we could do some trolling. Alas, his illness turned out to be lung cancer and he didn’t make it. I will send you a pm.
  16. I haven’t been in the last few days but your results are about the same as mine. I have only found mostly spots. I have had some lmb but slim keepers that must be males. Shaky is all that I have caught them on. I can’t buy a bite deeper than 10’.
  17. This is some of it.
  18. What do you do with baits you don’t need anymore? I have an assortment of baits that I don’t need or use. Do you guys sell them or donate them to a youth organization?
  19. Yep. One of the local shows did that. One of my fishing partners used to get the fish ready for the show.
  20. I found a good deal on Avids one time and bought 4. They are all 6.5’ medium. I kept one for myself and gave the other 3 away. I use mine primarily for tubes with 10# fluorocarbon line.
  21. Thank you Mr Texas Governor.
  22. Compost is cheaper. I get it for $24 per cu yd.
  23. Yes I know a couple of guys, Scott and Brad at Marine Repair Center at Division and National in Springfield. 417-833-9191 They usually can get you scheduled within a week or so. They do all of my electronics work.
  24. I wasn’t even considering the lumber costs. My raised beds are cedar which we have in copious amounts. We are working on a deal to get them milled on a percentage basis.
