Now those are some slabs! Way to go, guys. Hands Clapping
very nice feesh Billy boy- well done!!!
Nice Fish Guy's. WTG!!!
He pass away or move or what. I grew up fishin those stumps across from the ramp to the right, and fished and hunted there most of my life, especially when I was younger. I grew up out there.
Update, I just heard the flood got him and he let it go. How can I get a key? LOL
That's some pretty fish. Nice to have your own private fishing holeThumbs Up
The flood destroyed their home, according to the newspaper (CA).
Oh yes it did.
many, many years ago i fished a river run over there and it may have been this one. i just remember there was a man and his wife and they had thousands of hummingbirds in their yard every year. it may have been mr samples. the name rings a bell. seems like he had a really small bait shop down by the launch where you paid him.
That sounds like Ed's Camp on Midway.
Hey wind thats the place
dang, thanks billy, you know brain cells are hard to maintain when you reach geezer-ism, which i did five or six years ago. my boys were around 8 and 12 at that time and there was always a youngster around 16 or so waiting on you to help you unload your boat for a tip. my boys, being the little wise acres they were, nic named him junior samples. boy i got some great memories fishin with those two clowns.
Ate my first bowfin at Island 40. Tasty
Good fish guys!!!
RCC: you can eat all of them jokers you want but this one aint gonna touch em!!! LOL
