Bone dry for the last 4 days or so. I would imagine we get the rain tomorrow but I haven’t looked at the forecast (on account of its uselessness). I imagine we will get heavy rain but nothing like the experience in the gulf

Hahahaha . Yeah I mean why would That heavy metal housing youre sitting inside protect from flying boats?? Best to just take your chances letting it hit you directly in the head Some folks ……..

I’ll even throw in a bat photo today I am a fan of the ladder pivot tool, seems to work in more spots than a ladder with adjustable feet/legs

More bat work today, a healthy pile of guano under this vent on the driveway

They make non elaztech worms that float

Gotcha, sorry I read that before coffee. Kudos to @buzzed bait

So you got a new very expensive fishing lure as well? A win-win

Average probably 2-3 hours. Wishful thinking: sunrise-sunset

I could probably find you one this morning if I do a crawl space inspection haha. Every household seems to have 5-6 of them in the corner of a forgotten room, I think I’ve got one in my shed but it’s super thick, looks like it’s for catfish or something

Sweet!

Special is up to the eye of the beholder. They are related to bluegill but not a whole lot like them. They definitely eat bluegill !

Until you start catching them out of brush……. Crawdads inhabit lots of areas without rock as well, like grassy marshes. then you have places like where I live. I can’t think of any water near me that doesn’t have rocks. Also every body of water excluding cow ponds has smallmouth

I know I enjoy seeing live dinosaurs in person

good girl ………

Also do everything as slowly as possible, no sudden movements

Hhahahahahhahhhahahah. So far that hasn’t happened to me but I have seen one or two spray. There was a lab involved each time……. if they start stomping their front feet I back up and try again 15 minutes later

Wow!!! Looks fun

3 like that is a good day

Looks right up your alley

Go get em

Yeah they lose the scent of those real quick, usually by the second quarter

All the ones I’ve used are storm brand and yes I’m a fan

I guess I don’t feel so bad for crashing into rocks when Ott does it too

Steep country!! They lowered a lake near me twice in the last 15 years or so for dam repair, and it was great fishing upon re flooding both times. I wish you the same luck when they refill yours! Ours is a much shallower lake but is in the mountains as well, but with lots of current. I think the river still flowed as normal while it was down and the only deep water was on the lower end but it was enough to sustain everything and the populations seemed to explode when they brought the water back up . I think the trees that grew during drawdown were the key here but that’s just a theory. They worked on the dam for 2-3 years so a bunch of trees grew up about 15-20 feet tall on the former lake bed, providing excellent habitat for bass fry when they brought the water back up i should add our lake was also off limits while drawn down each time, I’m sure that helped too. They had law enforcement posted up 24/7 for years both times to protect native artifacts and didn’t even allow people to walk the dry lake bed

I ventured downstream a tad and got a decent one, dragging a worm deepish
