I may be wrong, but I think the common carp came from people using goldfish for bait. Either way it's against the law.

You must have spent some time in the company of the little ladies yourself mhall. ;)
Having raised two daughters who love to fish and hunt, the best tip I could give you is "Don't get too far from the rest rooms"! :) Seriously, expect to bait hooks, untangle lines, get hooks out of...
I fish because now I know why my father fished. You'll understand when you see your three year old girl catch a four inch bream on a barbie rod.
Steve
Yup, arkie is one of us.
Welcome arkie, and a late welcome to you kc. It's nice to see the ladies take an interest in the sport. If there is anything you'd like to know or anything you'd like to share just jump in. 99.9% of...
Just a guess, but what you may have seen was space junk coming back to earth. There are a few hundred thousand pieces of old space missions left up there since the 1950's. Everything from tiny paint...
I saw the tail end of a news story about two boats hitting head on on C'land. Anyone else see this?
Steve
Amen Rich. Haven't heard anybody screaming about a bass boat passing within 20 feet of you at 70 mph. Those who live in glass houses?
Steve
The well know definition of a boat is a hole in the water you pour money in. Spend a few more bucks and buy a newer rig. You'll be better off in the long run.

A friend of mine solved his gas stealing problem. He kept getting his gas stolen, so he put two pounds of sugar in five gallons of gas in a nice red gas can. Two days later it was gone. Shortly after...
Chantix works. I smoked for over 30 years and tried to quit several times. Couldn't do it. I haven't smoked in 7 weeks with this stuff. Give it a try. At least it will get the better half off your...
Loved the story Larry. Anyone who has hooked in to a big 'un knows how you felt. Unfortunately some stories (mine) end in the line parting like a 22 rifle shot. Sure ends your day in a hurry. lol!...
Again, thanks for all the help. I told the wife and daughters about what you guys said and they are taking the frier and hush puppy mix. If the son-in-law and I can't produce some crappie I'm in...
Thanks guys. Looks like it may rain on us so staying close to the cabin is a good idea. Will let you know how we do.
Steve
We've rented one of the floating cabins at Green for this weekend (13th to 17th) and I was wondering how the Crappie were doing. Any help would be appreciated.
Steve
Hey steeler, get in, sit down, and hang on! Shutting up is not an option. :)
Welcome bud.

Makes me wish for the old days when they made heavy glass returnable drink bottles. My brother and I were fishing a cove when a boat pulling a skier came in and made a big swing. I thought the guy on...
I saw this ad in the local clip-it paper today.

Your jon boat should work well. It's all I ever use. Just be careful until you learn the river. What was three feet of water in the morning will be an island in the afternoon.
If you want to make a...
Thanks Peter. I was wondering how the hatchery would do with the low water. I was hoping they could keep the stocking schedule, but it does'nt sound too good. I fish the Nolin tailwater and...
This was part of drown proofing in boot camp. It works. There was also a technique where you float by just hanging limp. We had to do this for 45 minutes in 12 feet of water in order to pass the...
Art, I find that where there is a will there is usually a dead guy! Bobsled boating?!! yeeee haaaa! :)

Sorry for the double post.

For those who don't know, a "real" Marine went through boot camp at Parris Island. A "hollywood" Marine went to boot camp in California. Both places are hell on earth, but we like to tease each other...
I'm kinda like you TT. I just lerk around here, reading and learning and laughing a lot. It is a great place.
BTW, Semper Fi Jarhead.
Were you a "real" Marine or a "hollywood" Marine? ;)

I'm pretty sure that is his address at the end of his post. When you are out of the states they give you some weird addresses.
Steve
Just checking, yup, I'm alive.
Just a tip, the softness of the plastic is controled by the manufacturer of the plastisol, but there are additives to make it harder. I used to buy mine from Southern Plastics in Eufala Alabama and...
Nice post Moose. Lots of good info. Thanks.
Steve
Bandit, I've got a knee board you can borrow for that trip.:P
Not to toot my own horn, but I designed that grub and made two molds for Al Kalin. It's a 5 inch with a very thin tail that will swim if you move it at all. It also has a very slow fall. You can get...
You guys are killing me! I have'nt been able to fish Cumberland all year. But my birthday is next month, and my present is a weekend at the River Front Lodge!!!!! Peter, the advise about the small...

Thanks for the kind words guys. It was a different world that we came home to back then....
Be careful about copying someone elses lures. They have put a lot of time and money into their design and they won't take kindly to someone reproducing them. Some of the bigger groups will burn you,...
If you want to get in to the mold making business I would suggest you make up a brochure with a list of your equipment and it's capabilits. List how much experence you have (flow molding, blow...
At one time I had a part time tool and die shop. I made aluminum production molds for several lure makers. A forty cavity soft plastic mold in todays costs would run about four to five thousand.

There is a large corp of eng. camp ground just below the dam. It's called kendal I think. I may not be spelling it right. It has water and electric at the camp sites. A nice place from what I hear.

Welcome blondefish, and I second mhalls post. We could use more ladies on here. I'd check out the state park or Corps camp grounds. Most are on the water, have rest rooms, showers, and electric and...
Geez, Remind me to never ask you guys if you have a good recipe for a 10 pound large mouth! ROFLMAO! :):):)

Just a reminder, the creek bottom belongs to the land owner and you should have permission if you are wading. But, if you are floating over the same bottom in a boat, no problem. Makes no sense to...
We may have over looked something in this. His 4 year old sister Ali who is making the bone marrow donation. From what I've heard this hurts really bad. A card for her, maybe telling her what a hero...
When I was a kid I had job a boat company. A local policeman came in and asked if he could buy a boat. Normally the owner only sold to dealers, but this guy was a cop, (you know, low pay, long hours,...

A well known lure maker (who shall remain nameless) once told me "10 percent of the lures catch fish. The other 90 percent catch fishermen". How true.
Steve
Looks like just what I was looking for. I'll give it a try.

I saw in our local paper this week that a large company out of Bowling Green has applied for a permit to operate a 60 acre rock quarry .3 miles from Green River near Munfordville. This will be a ...
1. People who tell all their buddies about the honey hole you took them to so they could have a nice day of fishing.
