FD.

This one is the biggest of the year 25" and over 8 lbs caught on warmers secret lake x Aug 08

Just the biggest for you... everyone knows you have hundreds that fit the criteria.

Now they tell us...

I only buy from Mudhole. Their service is awesome and they are only 90 miles away so regular shipping is quick for me.

I think I would run away and play dead, especially if my wife looked like a truck.

Luckily for me, frogtog can't count past 21 (only then when he is naked) so he completely blew the $30 limit. I may have gone over by a few dollars. I was shocked when I opened the box to find this. 1 bandit crank 1 spro frog 1 monster sizmic frog 1 helix buzz bait 3 spinner bait 3 rattle traps 2 bags of powerbait 2 bags of coffee tubes 2 bags of culprits 2 bags of yamamoto senkos 4 bags of zooms 1 bag of yum 1 bag of super spike its 1 jigging spoon 1 pack of tungsten flippin weights 6 packets of worm hooks 1 bottle of rejuvenade and most importantly 1 tub of Aunt Ruby Chocolate Peanut Clusters Thanks Jimmy

or a "board stretcher" after you have used the skill saw.

That's funny.

I know I'm slow sometimes but that looks like four.

Mudhole was awesome about it. They overnighted 2 more the next day and told me to keep the pieces. They did not even want pictures.

Fed Ex is TWICE as good. They managed to break a pvc tube in two directions all in 90 miles. It was 2 mud hole custom blanks.

Here is my first I can still smell the 2 stroke burning in the morning air. Join a club fish as a non-boater take 3 rods your 6 favorite lures a camera life jacket lunch and have fun Don't worry about catching fish, just enjoy the moment. There will be plenty of time to obsess over 14 rods, a wheelbarrow full of lures and whether or not your boater was a moron while you are getting ready for your 2nd tourney.

I know you did not ask me, but, I like him too. I like his Frank and Christmas music the best. His original stuff is, well, is original and a little odd sometimes. Overall he is a great musician and you guys should have a great time.

I use white/glimmer blue or golden shiner with a 5-0 zoom toad hook. 15 lb big game mono.

As much as I hate to say it the Panthers are probably the best.

He will know. I see him a lot at Johns Lake and I have caught several over 8 out of there. But just about anywhere in Fl gives you a shot at a biggun.

glue a magnet to the back of it. Glue some painted steel where you want it to stay.

I can't wait to try that nose weighted flapin tail worm swimbait for the first time...

Cool!

This is the one I use and I like it. http://www.mudhole.com/Shop-Our-Catalog/Wrappers/Flexcoat-HW1-Hand-Wrapper

I see this guy at the ramps all the time. Everytime I ask him questions he is helpfull and seems like a nice guy. http://www.bassfishingfl.com/

Exactly! One thing that I find myself saying more and more is, "I wish is was like when I grew up". Then I realize how dumb that really is. The reason free markets survive is their ability to grow and change. This economy is changing and will be growing again soon. The structure of societies change as the economy changes. The problem is that as humans WE don't like all the changing and growing. Everyone needs to settle down and get ok with the changes in our society. While it is nice to reminisce about the "good ole days", being stuck in the 60's will not allow you to prosper in the NOW. Look around your house and identify what you have that was not even available to consumers 30 years ago. Compare your standard of living to your parents when they were your age. I think if you do this honestly you will see the incredible growth that has happened and understand that a correction was long over due. Things are never as bad as they seem at the time. Have a little patience. See if you can find a little faith. And remember, no matter how bad you think it is, you still would not trade it for anywhere else in the world. That is the little pep talk I give myself. I'm not a historian, economist, sociologist or any "ist" for that matter. I choose to look at things that way based on the way I was raised and my life experiences.

Lake Gibson, if it rains, would be my first choice. Right now I can't get my boat in because of the low water levels. Mud Lake is also down and I don't like it anyway, so that's fine with me. Agnes is down also but is the easiest of the 3 to fish in low water levels. The grass line and docks just north of the ramp have always produced the best for me. There is also a deep hole near the interstate. If I get a chance I will fish it around xmas and see what is going on. PM me in a few weeks and remind me. I'm getting old...

Every time this country has faced adversity we have come back better and stronger than we were before. I am confident this will happen again, soon.

Welcome back. Try not to fall out of the boat again.
