Mainly channels and blues, we get more flatheads in a creek out in Arkansas on my wife's father's farm.
We'll run some jugs first thing Friday morning, then go pole fishing and chum the water. Should be fun. I'm hoping for some bass as well.

How's the squirrel hunting down there?
By our house, Eh. Where my wife grew up it's real good. When I first met her she had a few bags of frozen squirrels in her freezer.

Fucking Hannibal lecter up in here.Made skirt steak....
Get some local raised cow. Take the skirt steak and trim off excess fat. It's a fatty cut. Don't worry too much!
Make a marinade. I like Alton Brown's but I add more pepper, more cumin, less sugar, more soy sauce.
Meat in the marinade...
Toss it in a bag and throw it in the fridge for an hour or more. I did almost three.
get a HOT grill going. If I had a better setup I'd even think about heating up the coals, knocking off the char, and cooking DIRECT ON THE COALS.
If not direct, get your grate real low so you're cooking HOT. This is a thin meat that will cook fast. 3-4 minutes each side max.
And done. Wrap in foil for 15 minutes.
Take out and put some lime on it...
Cut AGAINST the grain...
Looking good!!!
Put it back in the foil juices and toss around.
SERVE with a corona beer.

Pics or it didn't happen.
Would you just look at that. What are you cooking them on?Lol, ate it already. Here's some I cooked a couple months ago.
A cheap Chargriller with an off-set fire box for smoking.
Something like this.
How about you?
I found a guy who makes them in his garage. Had him make a reverse flow offset smoker out of like 1/4 inch steel pipe. Works good, and for what I paid you'll never find anything store bought as strong. It's a little rough around the edges, but works great and holds temp well once it's heated up. I toss on about 1 spilt every 55-60 min.A cheap Chargriller with an off-set fire box for smoking.
Something like this.
How about you?
I plan on getting one eventually. I smoke a lot. One of these cheap grills usually only lasts me about two years before the firebox burns through.
Hell ya, I was doing it a lot before the baby, now that he's not a tiny baby baby anymore I'll probably start doing it again more often. You should look on Facebook marketplace for a guy who makes them. Worth every penny. I have about a 1/2 cord of hickory left so we should be good for awhile.
How old's the little one?
Awesome, congrats bro.
