I’m actually kidding about the noodling for fish, no way in hell would I stick my arm in a crevice underwater, NOW noodling in the trailer park is a different story.....
I’m sure she’s a beaut! Post a pic so I can dream
Are you saying that you would stick your hand in one instead of both Bell? Bell!
The Boys are getting ready for OU right now

Supposedly it's a triple wide. I don't think you'll find these on sale at Palm Harbor
PSA:
Academy has Mauser M18 in 6.5 Creedmoor for $549. That is a heck of a rifle you don’t have to worry about scratching up. It has a 60 degree bolt throw and they have a FIVE shot guarantee inside MOA. I’ve been looking at them in other calibers but this is a 100 bucks cheaper than my go to web sites. Don’t need a Creedmoor but I may have to get one.

Nice, can I put it on a trailer and move it around? Sure would like to avoid the property taxes.
I've shot the 6.5 creedmoor on several occasions and that was the round my brother chose to buy his oldest son for his Deer rifle. It's a flat hot little round. He went with the 260 Remington for his youngest son's rifle. I haven't shot that one yet but my brother tells me it's comparable to the 6.5 creedmoor.
Perhaps. I probably shouldn't divulge this but apparently, my dad's dad, who died before I was born, did a little noodling back in the day. Not sure what would possess someone to go reaching their hand in places like that. I obviously didn't take after him because I have the smarts real good and don't do stuff like that.

I would actually consider living in that. Pretty freaking nice.Supposedly it's a triple wide. I don't think you'll find these on sale at Palm Harbor
I've done it once and it was meh. But you've got to understand that I grew up on the nueces river. Thats water moccasin Central. I've seen them clumped into huge mating balls the size of tractor tires. So being around snakes doesn't really bother me.
22 trout from my kayak yesterday in Port A. 8 keepers.
Everything you put ya hands into got a price to it, a catfish , cuts on ya hands..etc and the thing you put ya hands into cost ya money one way or another, a catfish will bite 1 or twice and then ya throw his ass in a frying pan and thats it, how far would Indiana Jones have made it if he hadn't put his hand into something, I'm sure he's looking down and say Bell my grandson, sometimes ya just got to go for it..lol, maybe try Noodling with a good looking country girl naked that can show how to have fun Noodling with her, you got to fill your Daddy's Daddy's shoes and start Noodling Bell!...Ha! ha!... or he probably scratching his head saying WTF wrong with this kid?... He's scared of a damn little Catfish....LOL

Sounds good to me! I'll run that by the wife, I'm sure she'll be good with it.
Nice. Usually I slay smaller trout in that area but for some reason it's been very spotty at best recently. Haven't even been hit by a ladyfish either. Possibly too much fresh water pushing them out...... Probably just luck. Who knows.
On the other hand, slot reds have been very active. I went chasing tagged reds on the 25th and no kidding a bull red hit my trout support grasswalker in lighthouse lakes. I guess the higher than normal tide is why it was in there.
Needless to say, it straightened out the smaller hook and smoked the drag washers in my Lews Mach2 speed spool. Not the right gear for those bruisers.
So I have an update for you. Was with a hunting buddy over at Bass Pro Shop getting ready for a fishing trip. Was telling him how much I really want a.338 for pig hunting. He laughs and tells me I should see his pig gun. No problem, I know he always has a new gun so we take a quick drive to his place up in Boerne. He pulls out a Baowulf .50 Cal. I kid you not, this is one badass gun. So last night I go on line and I watch youtube video of dudes killing pigs with this gun. Damn, they are dropping those pigs with one shot. Oh, and not to mention this gun is only about $1200 bucks. I'm now re-thinking my whole .338 choice. Probably the biggest draw back to this gun is the Ammo is about 45 bucks a box of 20.
Main thing is night vision optics. Suppressor makes for less terror among the swine. Thus need subsonic, then heavy bullets.
It's the eternal race for a round that can "do it all" in close proximity and at a distance. The true expert on this is @GuaranteedFresh! And I'm sure he can tell you that when your life absolutely depends on it, sometimes you must shoot at targets within just a few feet to a few hundred yards. Yes, those big bore AR platform weapons like the 50 Beowulf and the 458 socom will put down anything. But you lose range with those rounds. Conversely, the 5.56 round can reach out and touch you at a distance.
Think about this--- the muzzle velocity on the 50 is around 1750 fps. The 5.56 is almost 2800. The 50 delivers 2000 lbs of force at the muzzle. The 5.56 delivers half that--- 1050. But you're using a 300 grain bullet in the 50 cal and only a 55 grain bullet with the 5.56.
All rounds have sacrifices that must be made when using them--- this is why accuracy is so important. It's not "what" you shoot your target with as much as it's "where" you shoot your target.
I'm going pig hunting and I want that pig to explode when it is hit. No running, just boom, thump and pig shit flying everywhere.
Boom! Splat! you say?
Well, I do have a contact at Milkor and I can try and hook you up but it doesn't get anymore BOOM SPLAT than this
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milkor_MGL
Could be a little pricey though.
Head over to academy and pick yourself up enough tannerite to pack a Folgers can full.
Mix a little diesel with a bag of corn and poor all around said can o boom powder.
When surrounded by hogs, let fly your supersonic round of choice straight into can.
Enjoy the raining bacon bits.
What paperwork do I need to buy a gun like that? Because I will do it.
As for the boom can, I have a few other recipes for boom cans I won't share them on the internet. "Just a few household chemicals in the proper proportion".
I am more partial to shooting them and making them explode. I was on youtube and some dude was killing pigs with either a Beowulf or a 458 Socom, I watched him kill a male pig while he was porking a female. Shot him with a fat dick. That is just wrong, all though if I have to die, I'd rather die getting some.

Freaking dude--- for all of you guys listening-- first of all I just got home from a charity event where I probably had too much to drink tonight (thanks uber)-- and here's fresh--- who at some point in his career was taught how to make bombs (which is totally super cool and also awesome) encouraging you to blow hogs to bits with explosives.
**** it. I approve.
See those videos were funny until dude gets his leg blown off. I'm not sure why but every single one of those explosions the exploding object came flying back at the shooter. I think I'll stick with the Baowulf, you shoot a pig with that the only thing that will be flying back at you is bacon.
Idiots with no concept of explosive ballistics. The dudes that filled a lawn mower with explosives and then had his leg amputated by the shrapnel----- sorry Charlie. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. every EOD guys and most dudes with any chemistry knowledge and a tad bit of common sense or even training know that when you detonate explosives, there is a minimum safe distance that should be adhered to. These clowns wanted to be famous on YouTube. Well, now they're infamous.
Each one of those guys were way too close to be popping large metal objects. Especially because they embedded the explosive within instead of on the outside to direct where pieces will fly.
Some people are just dumbasses and that's why lighters, paint cans, tide pods, cough medicines, and more than 2 cool whip cans per purchase are restricted at Walmart. I'm sure I'm missing some other ridiculous products too.
If using the 338 Lapua you're really only getting 1 shot off before your hunting area is soured anyway. That thing shoots true a country mile so close proximity shouldn't be an issue.
For blind hunting 75-100yds we prefer a canned 300blk. Plenty of knock down power with minimal recoil so you can drop a couple hogs before they scramble. Many times they'll come back in minutes to investigate why their buddies went to sleep.
Fresh--- I'm hanging with my Msgt JSOC buddy tonight. He asked me if I was ever going to be able to lure you into town so you two can swap Air Force stories and have a few beers. I could guilt you a bit with the fact that he's disabled and a broke star recipient, but only a real ass hole would do that.
but seriously, I'd really like to hang with you and I know my buddy would as well. He lives about a half mile from me in gruene. So we can hang whatever night is best for you. Get a hall pass bro!
