Monday was 80 degrees, bright and sunny, just a gentle breeze. Loaded the grill up with pork chops and basted them with Sonny's Sweet BBQ sauce. Threw on some corn on the cob to roast with them. …Continue

These are a few pictures of our fishing trip to Old River, today. I was lucky enough to catch this mess of pan fish along with a 12# Northern Carp on ultra light tackle. I fought the big brusier for 25 minutes, every time I'd real him in to the boat, he'd take out the drag about 25 feet, this continued over and over, till finally he wore out a bit and I was able to net him. When I returned to the boat landing after the trip, they weighed him and he hit the scale at a whopping 12#'s. My party caught a good many Blue Gills and we all had a great day on the water fishing.
I'm going on a guide trip tomorrow to "Old River" a ox bow lake here in Louisiana. I haven't been there since last year but when the Mississippi gets to a certain level, I know where to go fishing over there. My fisherman are a nice lady and her boy friend. She's one of the richest people in Louisiana and loves to fish, we are old friends. Ya'll wish me luck, I'm working on the girls college fund...lol
Was hoping to get outside and go for a hike tomorrow, but it looks like it's gonna be rainy. Bummer.
Wow Johnny, I wish we had some pictures, but please tell us about the trip.

It's kinda nice that the phones died when ya'll got out there. No modern distractions LOL. I cant wait to hear the story and I am sure your words will paint the picture for us just fine
Comment by johnny twoshoes on May 28, 2012 at 17:04 Back from camp and the soul hasn't felt this good in a long time. The outdoors has a way of feeding mine, (soul) better then anything else. The friends that were there to share in the memory made for an even better time.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get pics. All the phones died as soon as we got to camp, they searched for signals and found non. I left the camera at home, mostly because I planned on being very active near water on this trip.
I'll post the story as soon as I get it written.

Sounds great, we all would love to see your stuff. I know, I would.

Good day to all, my project for today, to put together a knapping or cordage video, I don’t have a video camera, just my camera with some video capacity and my new smarter then I phone that has sound. At less ill get some photos up. (I hope)
I'd love to see your work Chipmonk, and I'm sure other members would to. Thanks.
