Thanks for a nice forum

And the Mo. board has some of the most dedicated crappie fishermen I have ever had the privilege of knowing. You guys are top shelf to this old bird. If this snow keeps up, I just might sell out and move back to the Ozarks to get away from it.

I aint buyin that for a minute John.....you're one old bird that won't be headin north not with Bee and Wolf so close,i'll be down before long and we just might try to get a day in on Bee if we do you'll have to come visit.

I'm not kidding, Bugs. If Mother Nature doesn't get nicer to us, I just might have to do the unthinkable. Naw, I'll just stay here so's you boys from Mo. will have a warm bed and a hot meal whenever you you get the urge to head down this way. If you can get away for a trip. let me know. I'll make sure I'm available to handle the net.

It is not any better up here willsjwills. Snowy winter so far and more in the forcast. You say we are top shelf but I have heard the same about you and your family. The way you helped out a couple wild MO boys and even put'em up for a bit and kept them from going hungry while there. So it is not just the MO board having great guys and gals. Lots of them all over CDC. Hope to meet a few of you Sippi guys when I come down this spring. Lots of great people from down there from what Bugman, Speck and Beagleman have talked about. We would be glad to have you up here if you pack up and head North.

Well, to tell you the truth, I'm a softie when it comes to the Ozark boys. They're too much like some of the boys I grew up with. And they're good crappie fishermen, too. My place is always open to any of you boys who want to come down and try for all these three pounders we have swimming around out there in our waters.

It has been a tough spell for you weatherwise John but you gotta stick it out because many,many better days are ahead.I'll be lookin forward to seeing you again it's been entirely too long,thanks for the offer John you and miss Linda went out of your way to make Jeff and i fell right at home and that will never be forgotten.....see you soon my friend.

[willsjwills]

I'll be looking forward to it, Bud. I'll stock up on shrimp, sausage, beans, and Italian bread just in case. Stay safe.

[willsjwills]

Uhhhhhh, I forgot crawfish.

John you just fill old James pickup up with all that good stuff. And let me know I will head him off at the Missouir State line and pull a food inspection on Jamie. Go heavy on the sausage, shrimp and Italian bread and try it all out, wouldn't want him to get foundered! Old Bugman was kind of getting a little round back before this fall. Dang you people have great food down there! Sorry never met you but I have spent lots of time in Richland the last year working.

Uhhhhhh, I forgot crawfish.

That just wouldn't be right......

[DMW1960]

That just wouldn't be right......

John put them in a box labeled OLD DW on it! He won't miss them!
