I sometimes haul out the old fly rig and chase a few redfish around the coast or a few bass around Caddo Lake.

It is, afterall, the most fun way to not catch a fish. If they aren't biting, you might as well look good.

Where is that place in broken bow? Thats not far from me.

Shane,

about 5-10 minutes north of Broken Bow, Oklahoma is Broken Bow Lake. and from the spill way on is Lower Mountain Fork River. Beaver's Bend state park is prolly your best place for trout (and where I go all the time) However, the next time I go I will try out the fly. It is on the foothills of the Ozarks...

That state park, in my opinion, is one of the better ones in the texas/oklahoma region...

Check it out Shane, you might like it... especially if you know how to fly fish.

heyyyyy

you got to it before i did. I however don't fly fish. I generally just use salmon eggs. Beaver's Bend is the only place in oklahoma worth visiting.

Yeah, i wouldn't mind at all to teach ya a thing or two... but first, i need to learn it myself...

but, i could show you the great places to fish there... I have always used salmon eggs in the past like aflac..

that place is fun.. great for family and friends... that would be great to have a bunch of the mean green nation to go there sometime.

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.

      Ladies at ACU

      I went to the game, again we started slow and accelerated in the second quarter outscoring ACU 27-12. We let them back in it and the lead got down to three points twice. But we went on a game-sealing 11-0 run to take a 66-52 lead as Lampkin took over. One of ACU's starting bigs went out late with an apparent back injury. She's from Bixby, Oklahoma, which is where I've gotten my only speeding ticket, so maybe she deserved it. As for the arena, it shares the same name as SMU's (Moody Coliseum) and looks like a carbon copy of TCU's (albeit half the size). Recently renovated and very nice. The ACU men hosted TXST shortly after. Which we could get some better men's/women's doubleheaders and on the weekend to help boost the ladies' attendance.

      Will Caponi and the dunk tank make one last appearance at DATCU this weekend?
