Frank, "Check is in da mail" put it there my self this morning!

I have never really noticed since in the past I have only been there for the day. But I have to assume there are shad or minnows (or something) in the lake. I ask b/c I have two minnow traps that we could set overnight.  Does anyone know the forage  fish in DV?

Silversides

Next question on the minnows, how successfull have peeps been catching their ownbait minnows there? 

I've been tempted to try and trap some, but have never tried.  I'd guess the shallows would be a good place to start.  Have seen little schools by the beach when launching before.  Guess i'll bring a trap, cause I aint buyin no minnows this time...

Last time I caught half a dozen crawdads, 2 little frogs and tarantula. All within spittin' distance from Mooches tent. I left the snakes alone.

I guess crawdads would be good bait for stripers.

Yea Mooch, no chasing cougars out there.

 Mooch ain't afraid of no Cougars, besides, you don't even have to chase them now,

  They Come to You....

I'm all over that site

I guess crawdads would be good bait for stripers.

Crawdads are without-a-doubt THE best bait for smallmouth bass. It's like smallie-crack!

I just paid using my wife's Paypal account.  Please put me on the "Snorers row" list 

For the NCKA snorers, anyone up to MBF for the loudest 

Don't tempt me I am on record  at Berkley on their snoremograph which has been confused with seismograph on several occasions. Prof. Snotgrass has me recorded at 7.0.....major stuff.

Prize for loudest snorer MBF?

70 bucks + S/H for that piece of rubber band?  What a ripoff and it looks so uncomfortable.  Ear plugs are only 50 cents a pair 

My girlfriend is wanting to join me, but I don't have a kayak for her, anybody with an extra willing to let her use one? I'll bring some extra beer for whoever does, oh and she used to be a massage therapist too. I will see what I can work out

Hey Jeff I am going to be bringing A spare yak to haul my stuff in but its A little small yak! You are wecome to use it but I dont have an extra paddle. I will post A pic of it later. Its not rigged for fishing but it will do OK

  I think there will be many "Pack yaks" available.  I'll be using my inflatable Advanced elements 10'er for my pack yak, if I can't stuff & carry everything I feel I'll need, on my OB.
