We put parents who interupt meetings in the bows of motorboats and go slowly. Damn the Carpedoes, full speed ahead!(This message has been edited by Argyle) Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh 3452 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The Mississippi has these fish as well. Commercial fishermen are putting up plexiglass guards on their boats for protection. We have our parents waterski, some of the fish are a little slower and strike late, every fisherman knows the importance of a stinger on their jig. Stosh Link to post Share on other sites
Argyle 10 Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 I remember fishing up by Lacrosse on the Mississippi as a kid. Stripers galore, Large Mouth, Small Mouth, and Walleye. On the Illinois River south of the locks at Pekin, they're saying that the Big Head and Silver Asian Carp are 9 out of 10 fish. That's a huge percentage, much higher than the number of Sea Scouts getting trained at the SEAL Courses. Link to post Share on other sites
