Heck with that....You asked...Thinking that you are probably a superstar boat mech, but underemployed for a person with your inate talents. Fierce independence, and a take no crap attitude, plus a good sense of humor. I am sure that you are a heck of a fisherman. Coldwater would do a better write up...PM him with your sordid biographical details...

No bad feelings for Chief or Drew.They are who the are. Just dont want to argue east coast spot issues with them again.

Here is a 17" spot from an un-named river in an un-named county, I refused to commit to the date that this fish was or was not harvested. Any subject or subject's legally acceptable represenitive for the purposes of obtaining this photo should apply with written consent in duplicate form. The owner and or representitive of this photo should be informed in a timely manner if new information and/or photos related to said photo become available that may be relevant to the subjects willingness to continue participation in this thread. How's that Hoglaw? :)

Spots can be fun when they get this big and can sometimes keep you from having a bad day fishing.

Good fish, better disclaimer.

FWIW, a blind man riding a horse backward can see where that fish was caught.

His father touches the Claw in spite of Kevin's warnings and breaks two legs just as a thunderstorm tears the house apart. Kevin runs away with the Claw. He becomes captain of the Greasy Bastard, a small ship carrying rubber goods between England and Burma. Michael Palin, Terry Jones, 1974

Pflieger mentions in his book that there was an undocumented stocking in the Osage system before 1940 and that one was seined at the junction of the big rivers in 1969. That puts them very close 40+ years ago. If you assume they have had access for many decades then the question would be "what is different?". I have trouble buying the dams theory because the dams are not only far upriver, but they are all old enough to question why it would take so long to make a big difference?

I don't see how the big changes in most of the Ozark streams can be ignored, given the fact that spots are drawn to waters just slightly warmer and more turbid than smallies? I'm not real familiar with the eastern streams, but I assumed they suffered the same fate as the ones in the west, loss of deep water and clear water.

Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
