Daryk Campbell Sr Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 As seems to be usual for me, I got skunked Sunday evening at a private pond in Cedar Hill, MO. I did get a couple of swells on a white popper that is at least 20 years old ( I have held on to it that long not really knowing what it was for the most of them). Got the idea to try it from Cheif, but I did not have the yellow one he referenced. My buddy caught a couple small cats, pretty channels still bright silver with the black dots. That is my report. Oh, forgot to mention, I did catch a few ticks, they are out in force. Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction. (me) I am the master of my unspoken words, and the slave to those that should have remained unsaid. (unknown)
ollie Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 That's weird about the tick reference. We hauled that canoe over a 100 yards through the fields and neither one of us had a tick on us at the end of the day. Not sure why. but I thought we would have been covered in them. Too bad you didn't catch anything, that sucks. "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
Jason R. Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Ticks in Arkansas are vicious this year. I got 3 the other day (while wearing waders no less) and my dog got at least 15. http://flyinthesouth.com/

stlfisher Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 In full force at my house too. My wife was lucky enough to help with the after fishing inspection. Not a pretty site. She is one lucky gal.
ness Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 The other night I was in bed half asleep and felt something on my leg. I dragged my fingernail across it and it came off. I turned on the light and sure enough it was a tick. Then I fumbled the little SOB and never could find him in the carpet. Thanks for listening. John
ollie Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 sure enough Ness that tick WILL find you when your sleeping again! lol I think Daryk if you had caught some fish instead this thread wouldn't have been hijacked!

Daryk Campbell Sr Posted May 30, 2013 Author Posted May 30, 2013 LOL, I'm Good with the Hijacks, I MAY be guilty of them myself. :-) Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction.

mic Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 I was watching Dogs 101 on Animal Planet the other day. Researchers are theorizing that man breed small dogs to sleep with them because fleas and ticks would focus on the dogs. Some more useless information for you all.
