  1. Took a trip to visit the gf back east. I’ve been lamenting my loss of the Merrimack River and hunting smallies. We rented a canoe and floated a 6 mile stretch. A year ago she had never cast a line before; 10 minutes in she landed an 18” smallie. We ended up landing 32 total with 3 in that 18” class. The one I’ve been chasing for the last 3 years took my fly, but threw it on a jump. I was at a bad angle and got a bad hook set. It looked to be 22-23” and had that kind of jump where it can’t really get all the way out of the water. The weather couldn’t have been better. We saw the usual bald eagles and various river mammals. Also had a little shorebird defending its egg by acting injured and trying to lure us away. Going back to Western MA in August for a 3 day fly fishing Bass Camp.
  2. Seventh grade me would have made my parents take me to Wally's to get autographs from Corby Brooks, Jason Reeves, and Keith Lyons.
  3. REK on Thursday! I'll update the thread. Kids want an adventure day Saturday, so we might head to bastrop and motor upstream as far as we can on the Colorado. Explore some islands, fish, and wade around a bit.
  4. Caught a tiny largemouth and one white. Guys at the steps we’re catching some, but not on every cast like you get sometimes.
  5. I'll be hitting the San Gabriel above Granger at the boat launch Judge pointed out tomorrow around 6:30. I have an extra seat available in the big green beastly canoe that is open to whoever would like to try to find some whites. Please bring a life vest as only one adult vest made it back with me. I'll be primarily fishing conventional, scouting for a return trip with the kids on Saturday.
  6. I took them there on a hike when I was in town house hunting! Love Reimer's!
  7. Yeah, I got back on Thursday! Gonna miss the river smallies in New England, but it will be nice to revisit my old haunts and meet up with some of y'all.
  8. Agreed. I was gonna mention get there at 4:30am if you want parking. Just repatriated to central texas, looking to get my kids out on the water soon. Will try the boat launch + canoe.
  9. I think Dickerson's is "the steps." Been there many times.
  10. For cauliflower rice, get fresh vs. frozen if you can. Don't crowd the pan.
  11. Get a rope! Edit: While this offends me from a low-carb perspective, it pisses me off from a chili perspective!
  12. Cauliflower, broccoli, cucumbers, celery, brussel sprouts, green beans, asparagus, zucchini, and summer squash are my primaries. I like sunflower seeds, pepitas, and pistachios for nuts/seeds. For fruit, berries are about it for me.
  13. Have you tried allulose? It doesn’t give the “cool” feeling of erythritol. I have salted caramel rebel in my freezer right now.
  14. Made Turkey patties last week that were awesome... I did them like Thai Tod Mun fish cakes, close to the recipe below. I left out the cornstarch and reduced the sugar to a teaspoon. https://allwaysdelicious.com/thai-fish-cakes/#mv-creation-237-jtr
  15. They only had the giant bags of frozen riced cauliflower at the grocery store, so I'll be making all sorts of different versions coming up. Yesterday did a cajun style, It was good. If you haven't had cauliflower rice before, don't let anyone tell you "it's just like regular rice." It's not; it's very different, but it's still good. Like veggie burgers can be good, but they're nothing like a real burger. If you try to tell me it is, I'll assume you're a fucking idiot. Recipe; all amounts approximate; used what I had on hand: 1/4 cup Salt Pork 1/2# Andouille 3 Chicken thighs 1/2# Shrimp 1 Poblano 2 stalks Celery 1/2 Onion 2 Green Onions 1/2 Tomato 3 cloves garlic Frozen Riced Cauliflower 1 cup Chicken Stock Thyme, Bay Leaves, Cayenne, black pepper Diced the salt pork, rendered the fat, removed. Put cauli rice in a sheet pan at 400 to dry it out a bit. (This was probably unnecessary) Added Andouille and chicken to pan, browned it a little. Added diced vegetables, softened. Added riced cauli, chicken stock, spices, and a pinch of the browned salt pork. Reduced the stock by about 1/2, added shrimp, served when the shrimp was done.
  16. No. Rewatching Breaking Bad right now… in the first episode with Saul, he says, “it wasn’t me, it was Ignacio!” I love how they turned that one line into Better Call Saul.
