Haven't been to Ma's since the remodel. Didn't recognize it when I walked in. You have to wait to be seated and it is packed with tourists at 9:30 a.m. I was counting on my usual spot in the smoking section near the grizzled local fishermen who were done for the day or waiting for all them tourn-e-mint boys to get off the water. I like to listen in. :)

There's even new slick Denny's-looking menus, but the breakfast items seem the same, thank goodness. Champ's fishing BFL today. I skipped this one. Done with the whole co-angler thing. Enjoyed the derbies I fished, but rather stick to team stuff now. He can't handle the smell of cooked eggs, so I told him I was planning to splurge - an omelet with a side of scrambled eggs and one over easy on top. Lol

I'll report back later if I think the food is still as good. Off to Harter House after breakfast to stock up on meat and ANOTHER Styrofoam cooler since I can't remember to bring one. Then I'm swinging by True Value for long nose side cutters for my fish first-aid kit. If Champ's lucky I'll get the trailer back on the truck in time to get him. ;)

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.

Don't go buying up all the old baits at the flea market.

Definitely more room at Ma's. Smoking side is still the place to be if you want to know anything.

You two have a great day. Hope Champ thumps them.

Flea market? Old fishing baits? Where? Where?? :). Thanks. I think he'll do well.

Right in the little strip mall where Shirley's Diner is in Kimberling. Can find the odd gem in there.

Just down the hill from Ma's, same side of the highway.

Ah, I know where that is. May have to make a run before I hook the trailer back up to get Champ after weigh-in.

Takes a little looking through all the trinkets. Picked up a nice All Star for the boy a couple of years back, and some decent hard baits.

Ma's is also supposed to be open for dinner soon. Might have started this week. They added a broaster for chicken, etc.

They have dinner items on the menu and there were cars out front around 5 yesterday, but dark when we came back through at 8:30
