Members Ozarkshillbilly Posted June 20 Members Posted June 20 New to this forum, not to the Ozarks. Grew up fishing the Little Sac, Little Niangua, James River, Taneycomo, Table Rock and Bull Shoals. My career took me from the Ozarks for just over 21 years. Now, as I'm close at retiring, I'm hoping to get some inside information for fishing. I plan on spending a lot of time on the water after retirement in my Grandpa's old boat that I'm restoring. Looking forward to the conversations.

FishnDave Posted June 20 Posted June 20 I hope you find your return to those waters to be as good or better than you remember!
Members Ozarkshillbilly Posted June 20 Author Members Posted June 20 Thank you! Many times I'd come back on leave over the years and can say that I was happy. Mostly went for trout, crappie, or white bass with the occasional walleye or catfish for good measure. I'm now reading up on small mouths as our home is nearer to rivers like the Meremac and Piney.

Money is just ink and paper, worthless until it switches hands, and worthless again until the next transaction.

Members Ozarkshillbilly Posted June 21 Author Members Posted June 21 Thank you all for the welcome. Here's the 1965 RichLine, work on it is going slow as I'm mostly getting after it every other weekend or so. If you fished Lake Stockton, Beaver or some of the other areas in the Ozarks from 1970 through 1999, this boat was blue and the guy in overalls driving it was my Pappaw. The wife, kids and I were able to get the trailer updated with new lights, wires, paint, jack and spare tire rack. Got the transom out last weekend, will get it back on in July as well as get the outside sealed and repainted. BilletHead, bfishn, snagged in outlet 3 and 3 others 6
fishinwrench Posted June 21 Posted June 21 Those old Richline's will last forever 👍 Do you have a motor for it ?
