One man wolf pack baby! The wind was blowing upstream and when I went to go home it was tricky reading the water because the water wasn't flowing.

I am headed to wildcat after work today. I figure christmas eve is as good as a chance as ever to not have to fish around a bunch of people

I am still coming to terms with this news as well. When you hear people say "they never acted like anything was wrong" you always think...surely there was some sign right??? But no, at jigfest he seemed super happy, and was excited for taneyfest. He mentioned a bunch of times how he was bringing his wife and how he wanted everyone to meet her.

most of it is good, when you get close to little rock there is some contruction.

speed limit on the interstate 57 will be 70.

you mean 67?

I have seen some videos of people getting bit putting their fingers too close.

I agree, even though @WoundedOne wadded up my left light hanger on my trailer thursday!

thats awesome, i had no idea there were alligator snapping turtles this far north

weather permitting, I want to try my hand at night fishing this year.

@BigHandsRob took one, and I took the other. I brined it yesterday, tonight it goes on the smoker.

This year was just like all the others, great. Thursday afternoon ray and I fished Buffalo city for a couple hours, but the water was high and dirty, only caught one fish. We ate some amazing lasagna ray brought down along with tons of snacks and finger foods Friday ray and I launched at rim shoals and went down to CC, which is a little unnerving at minimum flow. Fishing was pretty steady, nothing over 14" and we caught around 40 fish. Friday night we had amazing sauce picant made by @BilletHead and all kinds of finger foods. Saturday was cooler and more damp. @BigHandsRob, Lucas, and I launched at Buffalo city and went down to the confluence and fished that bank. Lucas started with back to back catches, then I caught 8 or so until poor Rob got on the board😅. Again nothing big, and also no browns. After fishing cooled off we went below the island to come up the back side. Minimum flow makes runs challenging, and on the back side of the island we got a little skinny and tagged a few rocks, but didn't get stopped. We went up and caught a few fish then went inside to thaw out and ate some awesome pizza from Nima's. When we got back we realized that there was a small hole in the boat, but we were able to keep fishing. Up at the bottom of Buffalo shoals rob redeemed himself and caught back to back to back fish. I made chicken lo mein and we watched some movies. I for sure had an excellent time and already reserved the cabin for next year

Don't worry, I saved us from packet gravy!

I love seeing the trinity!

wind should be decent:
