That must be what keeps me coming back. I honestly had not noticed that, but I have stopped watching many large tubers because they got massive money coming in and still try and sell you stuff. Edit: I would think youtube would be anti promotional adds that they don't post. It breaks the value of their premium service. People pay for no adds, only to be hit a few times a video... "now on to our sponsors"... I kinda understand when it's a smaller channel, but giants do it the most and I dislike it greatly.

COE are rangers. I meet them all the time fishing the two lakes (reservoirs) here in North Central Arkansas. They have all been great, pointing out spots and what others have been using to catch fish with. COE has a policy of no access within 100 yards of a dam. They've been busy getting that posted. My guess is that's its both a safety and security issue.

That blue catfish getting snagged was what I ran into the other day. I was snagging in the shallows and as I was trying to pull out of the rocks a Musky hit the bait, unfortunately I thought I hit another rock and as I jerked the line, he broke the surface and threw the lure right back at me, Maybe I would have reacted differently if it wasn’t the first cast of the day and I was checking out the area.
