So evidently the hellgramite crawl out of the riffle below my store and turns into a very large dobsonfly which lays these many many white eggs on my store and surrounding telephone poles. Supposedly this is sign of healthy water having a large hellgramite dobsonfly population. I see a ton of these dobsonflies on my store and Im sure those rocks out in the riffle contain hellgramites under em. Hopefully Ive explained the process correctly, lol!

More minnow pics!

Ive fished alot and I still say th e upper Meramec River is the most fertile prolific minnow factory Ive ever seen! The Smallmouth, trout and largemouth have an abundance of food and should grow well!This is super good habitat for them right in front of my campground! Cobbles interspersed with gravel pockets!

Rhoda Bohlman and her husband Mike have been coming with a nice sized group for 25 years. It was Our Redeemer Lutheran Church not sure if it is still. Anyhow did not get a picture of the nice sized group but did of Rhoda and Mike. She's wearing one of my Adventure Outdoors caps from like 20 years ago. Ive probably lost 10 and have none left. Good job Rhoda! What outstanding people they are!
