Well, it won't be long and you will be really happy you have air conditioning. It gets HOT in the Ozarks. Good to see you escaped FL. (Son lives in Ft. Lauderdale)
Shoot me a PM with contact info. I get down to Stockton a good bit. Spring will bring good crappie and walleye fishing. Bass also. And a drum now and then.
Head out to Fellows Lake. There are areas where you can bank fish. Lake Springfield also. I grew up/lived down there 37 years.
I'll smoke just about anything (in my smoker)
The fishing is always great. The catching varies.
