Went out of Long Creek Saturday night around 6 till 10:30. Fished main lake point and flats. 86 degree to 88 degree water from 12-65 ft pea gravel to chunk, Found 2 keepers one on jig other on spinnerbait. 1 lm 1 sm. But the Smallmouth fought like he weighted 50 lbs ripped drag bent rod in two was a blast to catch. Only 16" though.

And the directions to that ramp are???? do you have the gps coordinates maybe???? Sounds like some good "fishing"

He is open till 7 in the evening I think and he is by the fast and friendly 581-fins is his number give him a shout.

Jason No web site yet He does have live bait for those interested, Crickets night crawler of several varieties, chartruese live night crawlers and lot of neat stuff for all types of anglers.

Thanks Jason I will let you know how we do will probably be around state park/ long creek.

Jason, I do not know about a web site, he is at a funeral today so I cant ask him. But he is building me a couple of jigs and I will ask him tommorrow anr report back friday. On another note what is the night bite doing this week, taking a rookie out and just want a decent night on the water? Techo I do not think he ever had a shop in Nixa, but I am liking his offering in jigs and will see how the fish tommorrow night on the rock. Tr Timmy

Champ She may not kill you but she may hit you in the back of the head with a heavy jig or spoon completely by accident of course??? I remember fishing with my dad in a 14 1/2 boat and when he hit me on a back cast it was always my fault. So remeber to duck quick after comments like that.

Got mine this week going on a 175 Merc on a Maroon and grey Ranger 360. Gonna be around long creek 5-13-10 till noonish.

Rodney, Bummer on the breakdown. Broke the main steering rack on my Ranger last week, but got parts ordered in time for weekend to fish if they arrive on time and can get it installed. Hate to have breaks this time of year. I guess we have to sacrifice, you know the theroy about dollars spent on boat per hour of fishing time we are always in the hole. TR B O A T Bring on Another Thousand Hole in the water to throw money at.

Edwin, I see two really great thing going on here, A wonderful afternoon with memories you or your kids will never forget. And another is the lifevests. Thanks for sharing the love of the outdoors with the next generation. That is the only way to ensure we have lakes to fish and fish to catch. My father told me a little piece of advice for when I had kids of my own. He said, Son if you dont spend time with your kids someone will and who do you want influencing their choices.TR

Mark Oakley Question? Are the Flak jacket XLJ w/ Shallow Blue Polarized lenses available in prescriptions for us blind anglers who wear glasses constanly?? Thanks in advance. TR

How do we go about paying for and getting the stickers? I would like a set if possible. Thanks Tr

In the fishing report for lower James river it says its closed to black bass fishing. Where does that start in reference to Table Rock? Any info would be helpful. Thanks TR

We fished the long creek area saturday. Found from 53-58 water. We worked really hard from 730 to 330 to get a limit of keepers. We fished the grub and wiggle wart, I tried a blade and a jig. My fishing partner and I caught 6 or 7 whites lost track. We caught a lot of shorts to get our limit ended day with 6 keepers total. We fished the main lake area and went down as far the island. Lots of traffic. Had a great day on the water. My partner was a rookie to bass fishing, only the 3rd time he bass fished. It was a fun watching him get excited even when I caught a fish. I think I have created a monster. Thanks to all the guys with reports and for their help. Smoke colored grub, red wiggle warts

Captain Don thanks for your help thus far. I have the manual for HUmminbird pc and am trying to learn it. I am also having to down load a zip file/ gpx file software so I can get this taken care of. Thank You for your knowledge and time I will get with you when I get my computer updates done and this program figured out. Thank Timmy aka trranger

I did when I first installed it, The metal tab that holds the wires needed a little massage to hold the power and gpa antenna wire more frimly into the quick mount bracket. Bent the tab a little reinstalled and have been bouncing around with no issues ever since. TR Timmy

Hey just to let you know from a guy who has had a boat stolen, tounge locks are not enought. I used one that goes threw and locks the latch down. They cut it and took my boat in broad daylight. You have to slow them down use the type that goes up in the ball mount then lock the latch also. I have also put washers on the latch lock so you cannot get a bolt cutter in the shaft area. I also spent the extra money on a cable type lock that if I am staying in a motel overnight I run it threw the axle and around the trailer. Just to slow the thieves down. We cannot stop them but you have to make yourself a harder target. I feel for you stolen boat no fun at all.

I have a 787 Humminbird with external GPS. I was trying to load the gps waypionts from the MDC Table Rock structure map. I guess I dont know what I am doing. I bought a sdm card and a flash drive and down loaded the file but I must have done something wrong. Can anyone help with this task? Thanks In advance. TR Timmy

Phil Would it be possible to get the Ozark Anglers logo with the fish stringer for a decal for our truck windows??? Maybe in white or silver letters with the multi colored fishes???? In 3x8 or so decal, I would be happy to pay for one or two of those if it was available. TR Timmy

Just some info about temps. Fished Sat in the Cape Fair area around noon water temps 48 to 51 at surface. 1 White bass average male. Lots of rain and cold

Phil Sounds great I would like a set just let us know when available and address to send money to. TR Timmy

I just wanted to say THANK YOU so much for the info and the time out of your day to help us learn. It was really good information explained and illustrated so novice to expert could understand. Thanks lots. TR Timmy

I have found that with the gell cells you only have to charge them. No acid no checking no leaking smaller with higher output longer on the water. IMO you cant get easier battery to use.Tr Timmy

I have sold parts for 15 years and the best for your money in my opinion is the gell cell Optima Battery. I have never had to come home early due to battery or starting issues. They hold charges longer are smaller and last longer than anything I have found. Other guys I work with replace trolling batteries every other year and sometimes every year. I had my last set for 3 years and they were a year old when I bought the boat, boat got stolen so I dont know how long the would have lasted. I also do not let them set idle with a low charge on lead acid but a gell cell doesn't seem affected. Just charge them slowly to get the max out of the battery. TR Timmy
