moguy1973 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Yeah, not up as far as Irondale. It's probably a place not many see, except for locals maybe. It is public property that I took those pictures from though. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson

moguy1973 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Ok, It's Byrnes Mill Park, on the far lower reaches of the Big. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson
Al Agnew Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 I knew it had to be somewhere below Brown's Ford, because I've probably spent so much time between Irondale and Brown's Ford that I would have instantly recognized it if it had been anywhere on the upper 2/3s of the river. I just haven't been on the lower river in a long time. Fun thread...anybody else got any pictures they want to post for us to guess? I have lots of them but they aren't accessible right this minute.
hank franklin Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Here's one. I feel this is a pretty distinctive spot.
Haris122 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Probably way off on this, but I remember seeing similar scenery minus the water color (or is that shallow water and brown gravel underneath) on the Meramec by Robertsville State Park, so I'm going to say that's where it is.
Greasy B Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 That’s a tough one, wrong water color for and too small for lower Meramec. The milky color tells me it’s up near Scotts Ford. 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
cwc87 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Looks like meramec and water is up a bit kinda throwing me off with the water up Im thinking somewhere between indian springs up river or even above towards meramec springs. anyhow the water is hard to read with some gravel not exposed.
hank franklin Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Pretty good guesses, It's the Meramec above Highway 8 bridge, upstream a bit from where Woodson K. Woods CA hits the stream banks.
