Members Fisherman Sam Posted July 6, 2011 Members Posted July 6, 2011 Hi everyone, I've been a member on OAF for about a month now so it's probably time I do an introduction. My name is Sam and I've been blessed with growing up in the beautiful country we call the Ozarks. I've been a bass fisherman all my life and love to catch crappie in the spring and fall. Smallies are by far my favorite, but I would never turn down a nice largemouth or Kentucky. I am now in the process of expanding my fishing experiences and I would really like to start learning how to fish for trout, walleye, and other fish we have in the Ozarks. I live in a little town about an hour south of St. Louis, but I consider Table Rock my home waters. Fishing for me is hardly ever about results. I focus on the peace I find in marveling at God's beautiful creation and taking time to reflect on things I've learned and who I am. Anyways it's nice to meet everyone. Good luck and tight lines! If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. ~Doug Larson

Greasy B Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 Hi Sam, Welcome, your right we are very fortunate to live in and near an area as beautiful as the Ozarks. I might add that joining this forum was a good move too. There are so many generous people that are so willing to help out with tips and advice. If this forum would have been around thirty years ago my learning curve would have been a whole lot shorter. I’m looking forward to your post.
