Great job, Chad. Putting a couple days like that together with the conditions we've had lately is nothing short of impressive. I fished last Thursday and yesterday on/around Locust Reef. Last week was decent but yesterday was pretty slow for us. Seems like the hair jig bite is getting real...

Done. I sure appreciate you spearheading this, Joe.

Sounds like you sucked some contaminated fuel or deteriorating rubber into the carburetor, then it worked itself out. Definitely don’t rely completely on fuel stabilizer, especially for extended periods of time. That stuff helps but it’s no miracle worker. If you don’t use the machine very...

Be careful with Imazapyr if you go that route. Very, very potent stuff with a long lasting residual. A little goes a long way. It also travels with water… so if it rains after a treatment, it will probably go somewhere you don’t want it to go.

Up here (limestone quarries) 57's and 411's are essentially the same size... Difference is 411's contain the dust (57's + #10's) and the 57's do not. Same thing with 34's and 304's... 34's are a mix of #3's and #4's, while the 304's are a mixture of #3's and dust (#10's). If you need some...

Just finished the last pour remaining from my bottle of Blanton's. 'Tis a sad day on the homestead.... :cry:

I totally understand that approach, Chad. I would likely be the same way if I were in your shoes. I also wonder how many people go on these charters that end up buying their own boat(s). Surely a portion of them do. I bet a lot find out pretty quick that, even with the record population...

IMO your two best options are: 1 - Stick with 57's and just deal with the dust, or 2 - Go with the tar/chip seal that Jamie mentioned. I'll be doing the gravel portion of my driveway this summer with fresh 57's. The smaller gravel packs a little tighter, but rocks stuck in tire treads is...

I don’t disagree that the economy has a lot to do with it. But I’d be willing to bet there’s more charters running on the lake than there’s ever been too. Everyone is a walleye expert when there’s this many fish in the system. lol.

Excess soil moisture plus high winds = No bueno. Could be that, could be any number of causes. Nature does what nature does.

I’m optimistic this new truck isn’t going to Giles me and leave me stranded.

Exactly why I’m still on the fence about my ol Ford. I might just keep it so I have a beater. This new truck is too nice… I’m afraid to do anything with it.

Dang, that would irritate the heck out of me. Do you have a rooster? (Yea… I know, probably a stupid question. lol)

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it 1000 times… Eight pointers with frames like that one are more impressive than any other deer in the woods. That mount looks great. Heck of a deer.

That’s a tough looking truck no matter what running boards are on/off it! Nice rig, Clay.
