  1. That's what I understand as well. I may go again before Jan and throw streamers only, there are always bass to be had anyway. It's a fun puzzle to try and cipher and you can't really lose...
  2. Yeah it's going to turn out that us having more military spending than the next 5 countries was a bad idea when we are a country of idiots electing fascist. Shits going to get real when we go full retard in the parlance of a not so distant time. Its a frightening thought. But my Turkey prices!
  3. Agreed, he comes across as a bitter, hyperbolic old man. And they can't help but meander into politics and really show how dumb they are. Cringy.
  4. Guad Report. Fished Friday. Caught a few nymphing very early then it got very slow. Only saw a couple holdover fish I kinda know the rest of the day. Very slow. No idea where the new stockers are. Buddy broke off a big fish that he was not ready to tangle with. Gear sucked, sticky drag etc. After 9 am saw no one catching and only saw maybe 5 fish until quitting at 3. Those fish missed a streamer or, with a nice one, had a streamer yanked away when I strip striked Before it ate. Moderate traffic. Amount of floating Cypress leaves is annoying as fuck. Nobody was catching much. My slowest day to date. Heard a theory that new stockers cause a spawn and they stop feeding. Second and final TU stock is Friday if anyone wants to help. Please avoid fishing until Sunday so they can recuperate. Otherwise, no fish on that river, it's terrible, stay home!
  5. Hire a counter top guy so you don't fuck your existing countertops. It requires special polishing pads and precision. And a plumber if you aren't up for correcting the new drain. Big boxes have fairly limited selection. Check out Build.com or in person at Fergusons.
  6. What about the emissions from raising the animals?
  7. Fuck you; and you're an Ohio State guy lol
  8. Yeah but it came with a stick ti beat back the horny women's mobbing your ass.
  9. Given user name, she's not even from Florence.
  10. He's not wrong. Problem is it doesn't pay $. Worse the health benefits are equal at a more reasonable hour. But if you're running from sad gay repression, you gotta do you at whatever hour.
  11. My wife bought me a Hoodie from this fine establishment because we are classy af, and facts.
  12. Poc report. Windy as fuck out of the east. Took some local friends that needed fish for an annual fish fry with their boat in the shop currently. Limits of trout, kept 5 reds. They were mad when I released 5 trout on the first wade, paid them back on the last spot when I found a school pinned up against a shore near Conti and strung up enough for the fish fry. 10 in a row. Most on topwaters, aggressive bite. Released a 24, 26, and a 27. Kept mostly males. Small Trout everywhere. Waist deep or shallower. Waded a million miles to make it happen tho. Not like the old days. Trout are slowly recovering. I won't keep anymore for a while. Everyone else will...
  13. I have fished the guad and had epic days when it's raining, blowing it's ass off, and even when a guide called questioning to cancel- that was my personal best day on that river. Use discretion, of course, but the fish do not care about your comfort. No offense. Jay Watkins preached that fishing winward shores in high wind- fish eat; they dont care about our comfort or cast angle. Plus, we all have access to great technical gear to stay comfortable. All that said, my wife chooses days and stays back and reads books when suboptimal conditions prevail, or just chills and enjoys nature.
  14. Nice I was there Monday, fished non release spots as I wanted to rest the new fish and avoid the crowds. We caught some fiesty holdovers. Everytime I fish it I wonder why I don't go more often. Homie and are heading back next week. Fish right before dark, camp, fish until 12 and back to work by 130. It's pretty fucking magical.
  15. Quite remarkable, she placed 5th whilst paddling that giant melon through the water.
  16. Because they are insanely long and specially made to navigate all that neck waddle and bellyfat?
  17. Also Troph it is fairly common for duck Hunters to just breast out birds and toss the rest in the water. We did that once at our old place on the ICW and realized how dickish that is for everyone with carcasas floating around for days and adjusted our behavior. Not saying that's what you experienced. But maybe in part. I also keep the legs for confit on Redheads and divers. I only Hunt about once a year now anyway. But in our twenties we shot a lot of birds that required a lot of care and prep to taste decent. It's an odd sport.
  18. My experience is it's young guys. In college and my early 20s I had to drop the ban hammer on so many jabronies that violated norms and game laws fishing and hunting out of our place. Shooting non- game birds, going over limits knowingly, dangerous shooting, not being safe, and general assholery I have pretty severe tinitus from one asshole who blasted right by my earhole to wildly miss a Hen Pintail that settled into the spread. I fished with a group of guides last fall in West Galveston that flat out were all about killing fish. Took us out, then a pm client then fished the next day for fun. Limits whenever they could regardless of our wishes. A lot of sportsman grow out of it, but it's a problem. A problem that most bass or trout anglers do not have.
