Man back at work today and I'm already jonesing to go fish again.   What a fantastic weekend with a great group of guys.  Thank you @Quillbackfor all of your coordination efforts this year and all the years past.  Thank you again @Phil Lilleyfor graciously footing the bill for the cabin. 

Thank you to all my fishing brothers for the good times,  good food,  and most of all the good laughs.  The fishing was great, but second place to hanging out with all you hooligans and the good natured ribbing that gets passed around all weekend. 

Day fishing was good this year despite the low flows. The numbers on the buffalo were great Friday  for @fmcbrandon and the boys as I was stuck in the cabin working... the night bite was a bit off for me but @Daryk Campbell Sr got his new PB brownie which made it all worth. 

Saturday I finally got to fish with @N9BOW and Eric put @BrandonSTLand I on the fish as we bounced from Reds, to Rim, to Wildcat.  Thank you buddy for guiding us to some big fish and keeping us safe. Loved fishing in the Cadillac too! A fine boat she is. 

Saturday night was another bust for us, but that's ok too.  I'll get these waters figured out at night and just like learning how to fish Taney at night you have to just put your time in and figure out what works. 

Bounced out Sunday to get ahead of the weather.  I figured if we left it wouldn't do anything and allow Daryk and Cody to fish lol.  If we'd have stayed it would of been an ice storm likely lol.

Overall just another great trip in the books.   This truly is a fantastic group of like minded individuals that Phil has brought together here on the site,  and it's a blessing to get together with you all.  Screw Covid19 and fingers crossed we're past all this crap next year for the next Jigfest.

Man almost forgot... @Ham Thank you my friend for taking care of Geno.  He's a hot mess express and the only guy I know who shows up to fish a weekend with a separated shoulder he has to get operated on Wednesday.  Thanks for bringing him back safe so my sister doesn't kill me.

Until next time,  tight lines boys.

I had a great time guys, can't wait to get together again.  Let me know when anyone wants to make a run and do some fishing.

Jigfest one I had a full rotator cuff tear - completely torn off the bone - and 90% bicep tear on my right shoulder.  Ham took care of me then too.  I've never forgotten that and I never will.

Thank you Rick.  I was very happy with the performance and fishability.  I still need to clean the carbs, and finish the small stuff like rod tubes but overall I am extremely happy.

I got some stuff in my shop my grandpa used to sell.  Swepco 503, it will work wonders on those carbs.  I’ll try to dig up a bottle

We shuttled the first year and made 10 mile or so floats.  I think this was close to Buffalo but not sure 7 years goes by fast
