Re: My Last Fishing Report For Dale

That and Grateful Dead, eh?

Cool graphics, reminds me of how I used to paint.

Re: Did you just give up or?

We should go there. It's a pretty good hike the way I do it. Start easy, go through the hillier stuff, end easy. You got a foid card? I have enough guns, plus you'll have to get the hunting license. Half the time I don't even see a squirrel, but being out there before sunrise is well worth it. I can...

:mrgreen:
You build the rods, I'll finesse the killer topwater lures I came up with a dozen years ago, tested successfully and never did anything with.

We need a sugar momma to bank roll the start up.

I'd be up for a hunt this winter, goose, duck, squirrel, rabbit, anything.
I don't think I did any squirrel hunting this past season. I know just where to take you. Start getting in shape now.

Re: My Last Fishing Report For Dale

I have so much in my head I want to write, but then I get side tracked by... not much of anything. The guys I fish with, well, when I do, are all here on this site. That's enough. Try doing what I did every week for 13 or 14 years. Plus I had two or three stories a month in Outdoor Notebook for almo...

Re: Did you just give up or?

I only got out once last season I think, a freebie pheasant hunt with Dale. I was dead broke this winter and hunting costs more. More for gas, there's not much real close, shells and the time effort is more involved if you're doing ducks and geese or pheasant. I have permission to use the blind at S...

My Last Fishing Report For Dale

Hopefully he runs the whole thing. His response when I sent it to him... I don't know what to say. ____ End of an Era Got out Saturday morning. Checked the radar before I left. Massive storms to the north going all the way up and into Minnesota and starting barely two miles from my house, but radar ...

Re: water willows 6-19

Ed, at Saw Wee Kee there's a gravel hump we were practically standing on and fishing from before heading further down behind the third island. It's one of the few natural instances of water willow I've ever found on the Fox from Yorkville to Geneva. Blackberry Creek has quite a bit in the first mile...

Re: Leaving you a gift as I move to Nashville...

I've had Kilbuck on my radar for a long time. Never did get there. I should go there. I've been trying to get arrested on a creek for over a decade. I get in at roads, so there's really nothing they can do about it. They like to say they own to the middle of the creek. Go get your deed, I tell them,...

Re: Dale's Report for Wednesday

Thanks GD. I should start up an Out of State category for you, keep us posted on what you're up to down there. I heard about that log jam on Little Rock, but haven't made it up there. My timing has been all off on those two creeks this year. At least near the mouth. Barely ever see or catch a fish, ...
