Thanks for the photos. I have just about forgot what they looked like lol
Glad you had a good time and caught some fish. The Blue is way closer to me but I just love the LMF because of the scenery and it is so relaxing to me

Aggie, glad you had a good time. Sorry I never ran into you. I did get to meet Golfer Jeff and Magic. It does seem I run into the same people there. It's always nice to chit chat a little between spots. This weekend was nice, seemed everyone there (same people I saw over and over) were really cool nice folks. I got to watch one guy land a 20+. I was just about to measure it for him when it jumped out of his hands. I love it up there..... My only gripe is the Park. For a park to be so busy making money, they sure don't put much back into it. They need more restrooms, level some campsites, add credit card machine to cafe (it is 2014 time to get up to date). We did survive the hail storm Friday night. I was in a hammock. Yeah, all was okay until the last wind gust ripped up my roof. Talk about a mad dash to the truck barefoot. Trying to get out of a hammock fast in hail, rain and wind is not easy BTW. LOL! My buddy luckily picked the one spot in the campsite, to place his tent, that didn't have 3" of standing water puddles and mud. I think next time I'm staying in town or dragging my camper even if for one night! It was a trip I will remember. OH and to the old guys next to use camping. I thought only kids stayed up to party all night and be rude. Seems I was wrong. I got to hear their heehawwing all night long. At 5am when one guy was chopping wood I finally yelled out "Really"!!! Then my buddy followed up with "seriously!" He stopped cutting!  Then my alarm went off at 5:30. LOL!
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Heads up....anyone going...snakes are out. They like the trails too. Saw 3 in 2 days on trails. Not sure how many I walked by without noticing.

Bass Bustin - I have a camping story I need to share with you. You think yours was bad..... Nice meeting you around the bluffs. My buddy Shawn pulled a few 20's out of there Sunday morning. He had a 24" break him off and another big fish run him the whole way down to Lost Creek. Saturday the same guy (in shorts and boots?) caught a 23 and a 24 from the head of the bluffs hole. Seems like all the big fish congregated there this time. We can tell Magick to attack the old guys next to you..... but he would probably lick them to death first  He had a great time this weekend. I think about 30 people stopped to pet him. Nice to meet you - see you up there again soon.

Hey Jeff, what camping story you going to tell? I was just wondering if it was the one when you had single malt for the first time lol
