Pretty good for a weekday!

Friends showed up with 14,00 jello shots to be given out at the lower sandbar. Just look for the big red boat!

Opening weekend for Parker? I heard it is no longer closed.

 

[RiverDave]

Wheeler I swear I’d put you on payroll if you’d let me!

Opening weekend for Parker?

The Parker strip is always open. Come one come all, big or small all are welcome at the strip that made river dave famous!

These are my favorite threads. I don’t get out to the river very often. These threads make me feel like I’m sitting there on the beach.

What do you use for a camera? Your pics are always very clear

 

[TCHB]

Somethings never change

 

[DUN]

Fuuuuuuck I've got the fever. Entering June and still no concrete plans to make it out there yet.

Schiada? The gel scheme makes me think it isn't. Good looking boat.

Looks more like a Vector,

Hallett was my second guess. Now that I think about it, for sure Hallett gel.

a refurb canon for which I paid 186 bux and an old non image stabilized lens from the late eighties that's worth about 5 dollars. I'm not joking.

 

[TrollerDave]

For us, it’s the best $191 you’ve ever spent.
Really, thanks for taking the time to take and post these pictures.

Hopefully you'll be inspired enough to come visit Parker often!. Don't believe anything river mobsterbater has to say. Parker is wide open. I'll leave the light on for you!

Rivermobster is the best mid week Parker boating salesmen that has ever graced the strip. Thousands of people are headed there for midweek boating I hear.

During covid, it was packed all summer long. It sucked so bad it was unreal.

So far this year, it's been dead! Will be interesting to find out what happens out there.

I'm willing to bet most of these pics wheeler is posting (so far) are not from this weekend!

Youth sports are back in a big way. I’m not there this weekend because of my daughters volleyball tournament this weekend. A handful of my river peeps are doing the same.

You might have to ask Smilley when he was last on your river. I understand Lake Dave got the boot when the new sheriff came to town.

 

[CLdrinker]

[Wheeler]

Better not let little joe see these two. He might shut down the river for goood!

NAMBLA members are just that way. It's something in their DNA

Lake Dave. That's hilarious!

 

[Flatsix66]

Awesome Pictures, thanks Wheeler!

 

[TrollerDave]

This will give you an idea of what can be accomplished with a cheap camera and a crappy lens when you have great subject matter proper lighting and some luck.

Everything worked nicely the morning that Gail and Pete came to say hi.

On the other hand Flat bottom John and the Hydro offered great subject matter but the lighting conditions sucked at that time of the morning with the direction I was shooting. One can't have it all. ...I guess.

I lost interest after you shit canned the Schiada Boats sub forum. I've since found all the Schiada guys over on Facebook
