Whats The Dept Of Conservation Deal

[ness]

I never considered the Kaw for largemouth bass.

Well the guy I'm talking about is pretty resourceful and fishes a lot. He's not a BS-er, so I don't question it. He's just putting in the time.

I Lived 1 mile from weldon springs my last few years in St Louis area. There are grass carp in Weldon springs . Intentionally i might add. But that area has become heavily populated. the problem over there is just too many people. I bet it is still a good place to pick blackberries though.

Yeah, but St. Louis is such a cesspool. I wouldn't eat a blackberry from there if I was starving. I can't help but think every time I flush, and I ate Mexican today so I'm flushing a lot, it heads right down there and comes out their faucet. Then they make it into Budweiser. And their football team sucks and their baseball team is a bunch of steroid-plumped whiners. Then they claim to be the gateway to the west, when it was actually Independence, MO where Lewis and Clark really started their expedition and the three major trails west started. And they've got that east coast accent and, worse, attitude. They're more east coast than Chicago. But their pizza sucks. And they never had a really good Mafia. The Hill? Prego tops that! Bar-b-que? What the hell is a St. Louis rib, and why would you cut that part off? We had a St. Louis chain blow into town and try to make a go a couple years back. They didn't last 6 weeks. And, who cares what high school you went to? Chaminade my arse! And why did you get rid of the Orangutans at the zoo?? Seeing the big buck Orangutan go bizerk and attack any smaller one that tried to eat the peas that rolled on the floor was the best entertainment in eastern MO. Anyway, I'm probably off topic here, so I'll let it go.

Seriously.... one of the funniest posts I've seen on this site in a year. Laughing my arss off right now... and I grew up in STL

You nailed it, Ness. STL is definitely a cesspool . . . a lovable cesspool, but still a cesspool. Drank me a big tall glass of your flushings this morning and let out a hearty burp.

Lets expound on KC for a little bit

-- the Chiefs are perpetual chokers, seriously how many great regular seasons have they had, only to lose the first game of the playoffs?

-- how is a giant badminton shuttlecock a work of art? and when will that exhibit be over already?

-- I swear if I hear someone say, The country club "Plawza" ever again, I will throw up on them.

-- Johnson County, KS residents carry on like they are uppercrust elite living in the Hamptons. You live in Kansas people!

-- okay, you got some pretty good BBQ

-- wow, what an impressive skyline with that one skyscraper.

-- almost forgot the Royals! but thats an easy to one forget!

-- more fountains than Rome and more boulevards than anywhere -- as a tourist pitch, seems like some really desperate claims.

-- last time I was at the Kansas City zoo, one of your orangatuans was chewing bubble-gum and blowing giant bubbles; no-joke and true story.

-- Jayhawk fans and rock-chalk

Big words coming from a Gayhawker. They fired their best coach because he was a meanie. :lol:

I'm not a Jayhawker. How many times I got to tell you that? It's K-State, because that's where tuition dollars go. They're more my cuppa tea anyway. But...there's trouble brewin' at home. One of my boys is considering KU for next fall.

Nice work there, bro! I can't say I disagree with a single one, except technically we've got about 4 sky scrapers. The Johnson County thing is mostly myth. Mostly. And the Plahza thing -- well, I don't hang with folks that talk like that.

That there is funny as well.... Honestly living in both cities for significant amount of times, they both have their positives and negatives. I sure do miss my Cardinals, easier access to the Ozark streams and significantly more trees and hills.

I sure wish the water access laws here were much better, but I guess we learn to make the best of it. There are a few suburban creeks to fish but pretty limited opportunity to drive an hour to have any smallie fishing.

However one thing it has done for me is make me truly appreciate the times I have an opportunity to head down to a nice ozark stream.
