    Y'er Freshwater Favorites & Recipes

    I've not tried it but have heard of people cubing pike then boiling it without coating in Sprite then dipping in butter. Supposed to be pretty good.

    Y'er Freshwater Favorites & Recipes

    Deep fried crappie fillets coated in 50/50 Original Louisiana Fish Fry & Cajun Louisiana Fish Fry. I fillet pike like any other fish, leaving the rib bones on the carcass. I don't trim out the Y bones. I split the filet lengthwise on the lateral line then cut into sections. I prefer pan frying...

    Lets see your fishing boat!

    This thread has made me realize that I don't have a single picture of my boat, a boat I fished out of for a couple of decades before I inherited it a few years ago! I can't figure how that's even possible 🤣

    I especially enjoy this live version. The West Point Glee Club, amazing.

    Because Dad did!

    My uncle (Mom's brother) took us in & raised us when Dad went for cigarettes for about 12 years. From my uncle I'd say I still have a joy of listening to any Jerry Clower.

    What are you currently reading?

    Just started The Dynasty by Jeff Benedict. I didn't see the documentary. I never knew how badly injured Drew Bledsoe was that allowed Brady to become the starting QB, that was just in the prologue. Looking forward to a good read hopefully.

    DNA kits?

    It would appear that I'm in the minority by saying that if my DNA were used to identify someone related to me as tye suspect of a crime, I see nothing wrong with that. Maybe because I can see the other side of that coin as being the possibility that my DNA could help bring justice to a relative...

    DNA kits?

    All US military members have had DNA blood samples taken & stored since '91. I recall them getting to my unit to take samples in about '93 or '94 so I'm unconcerned with what's occurred with it since then. I've thought about getting one of the private company profiles just out of curiosity.

    I changed my vote to Tyson by KO now that this is no longer an exhibition.

    Tics not Tik Toc

    I dilute 8oz of Gordon's 10 permethrin in 1.5 gallons of water. All of my hunting clothes, besides underwear, undershirts and socks, get submerged until soaked through. I then wring them out by hand and let air dry. I've not had a tick on me since starting this years ago. At the beginning of...

    Favorite turkey calls

    Box call for windy days to reach out. Slate to get 'em committed and diaphragm to seal the deal. Cgasner1, that type of call has led to the demise of lots of toms👍

    Tyson vs paul

    Agreed. Mike will be 58 at fight time but my money would be on him being able to repeat the Frazier Jr assassination if this were an actual boxing match. Mike wouldn't have to be as good as he once was, just as good once (1st round) as he ever was. If I already had Netflix, I'd watch but not...
