The absolute best watermelon I ever had the pleasure of eating came from the great state of Oklahoma. My inlaws picked it up on the way back to Indiana from a trip to Dallas. That baby was dark green on the outside, was about 40 inches long and a big around as a soccer ball. Must have weighed around 50 pounds or so. We threw it into a tub full of ice and let it get cold, cut it open and it nearly split itself open it was so crisp and juicy. The perfect watermelon, sweet, crisp, juicy and ice cold. My oh my.

I had a friend in California that grew up in Oklahoma. He said he refused to eat watermelons they sold in California because they were so bad compared to what he ate growing up.

Does the color of a plastic worm really matter? Also, would it be a good idea to use a green worm in weeds? I would think that a green worm would blend in with the weeds and the fish couldn't see it very well.
Interestingly, I watched a Wired2Fish YouTube video today with Seth Feider, the pro bass fisherman talking about fishing for bass in grass. He showed the five or six setups he uses in heavy grass. He said he uses green pumpkin for everything unless the water is really muddy, then he’ll go to black and blue.

Try this again. Wherever the melons came from, there’s a trick to to that almost perfect melon. As a rule when the vine reaches the point where you have to move it back to where it’s out of the way broadcast a small amount of ammonium nitrate close to the plant but not touching. Not available anymore. In the southern states cotton seed meal is used. Better and faster growth and the meal gives the melons a sweeter taste. You’ve noticed a white streak before in melons when you cut them open, the nitrate caused that.

Now I’m hungry for a nice cold, sweet hunk of watermelon. I don’t have a big enough garden to grow watermelon. One or two plants would take up my whole garden.

Been out of the loop as far as fertilizers go. I understand that ammonium nitrate is no longer sold, why who knows. There’s a product similar to it that will do the job but do we wanna use it I say probably not. It’s called urea. A good product but maybe not around melons.

Ok my fellow anglers I conceed. I’ll be nicer to the older man in Oklahoma. I keep forgetting that he’s limited in his search for knowledge and I understand. I know his head is full of it. Being of sound mind I try to be a model citizen and a god fearing person. I’m almost sorry I was so hard on you mister Bottomcoon. Would you accept my almost apology and let’s move on. That ok guys? I poured my heart out to that old coot.

Hi NoahB43,
I think you and the guy's will find this article very interesting. It compares bass eyes to human eyes and explains the differences.

Ammonium nitrate is major ingredient in making explosives at home! Get a bang out of it.
