-HAWK-

For all you Fluro Haters, Give Copolymer lines a try. I HATE Fluro with a passion. I recently switch to Coploymer lines and love them. Here is what I use: -http://www.gammafishing.com/fishing.cfm?product=603 -http://www.yo-zuri.com/Products/ProdLine/Hybrid.htm -http://www.p-line.com/product_detail.php?id=101

Congrats, Beautiful Boat! 8-)

Whats a good color spinnerbait to use at night?

For everyone that doubts Megastrike, go buy a tube and try it. I recently picked up a tube, and can tell you it works. This stuff not only will help entice a Bass into striking, but will also make the Bass hold on much longer.

p.s. The wipers were the end of the story. It's tough, but women should never have any work done on a car if at all possible. It's not just your wife, all women get "special" treatment and the "female pricing and replacement" deal. > Just for the record. Some men are as bad if not worse than women when they come in for repairs.

How a City/Community deals with disaster says a lot about the people that make that City/Community. In Fargo they band together to help one another. In New Orleans they went looting,rioting, vandalizing, then went and waited for Fema to come save the day.

Hey Bassin, I own A repair shop in Royal Palm Beach that specializes in European vehicles. Royal Palm Auto Spa, 11503 Southern Blvd. If you wanna stop in Ill give you a 2nd opinion, and definetly save you some money.

Just noticed a few more things: -Unloading and loading the boat into the water? How would you even do it. There is no way of moving the trolling motor up and down you have the chair right above it. -Trailer, is it even possible? And if so would you be caught dead driving down the road trailering the thing? This must be an Early April Fools day Joke

Looks like some good quality time with the daughter. Having a father like you, she may grow up to be the next Kim Bain.

That thing looks like a disaster waiting to happen. Rods and tackle falling off the boat, people laughing at you as you troll by. Plus how do you steer the trolling motor? For less money you can Buy a brand new 14' Jon boat. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Welcome. One word of caution, the Baitmonkey Virus lurks on these boards and can strike at any time. ;D ;D

Congrats!!! Very nice fish, Do you plan to get replica mount?

This is very true. The ability to enter a Focused Zone, and block out everything else plays a large part in a fisherman's success. Some people have this trait, some people dont. But then you also have the Practice/ Experience aspect. There is no Natural Ability to substitue for hardcore effort put into learning the fish out on the lake for hours and hours. I would say it's 50/50

LOL ;D ;D Way to go man! Awesome fish. I would have loved to see the footage of you releasing this fish. That definetly would have won Americas funniest home videos.

Nice hawg... Did that bad boy actually get the hook in his mouth?

Shhh..... Lets keep it on the DL Mike. The less pressure the Better.

Great pictures.. Nice trip.

Thanks Guys.. This is becoming my favorite time of year too fish. Last year As a new fisherman, I didnt really know where to look for Bass in the Spring. But I have learned alot from this site and really been able to put things together this year.

My Brother and I, hit the Lake tonight to chase after some Big Girls... These are some of the Ladies that just couldn't resist us. Biggest went a little over 7lbs.

Wow only 6,000 years old? What about fossil records of millions of other species that existied millions of years ago?

Mine as well give it a shot. I hit up the BPS Spring classic and picked up the following: -Shimano Citica 200E -Shimano Curado 200E7 -ST. Croix Mojo Bass casting rod MBC70MHM / CRANKBAIT -ST. Croix Mojo Bass casting rod MBC66MHF / JIG-N-WORM -P-line Fluroclear 8,10,12lb test one of each -BPS XPS FLurocarbon 10lb test -Lucky Craft RC2.5 crank Bait American shad -Lucky Craft RC wake action in American Shad -Multiple Rapala DT series Cranks in multiple colors. and a bunch of plastics "I KNOW" that I will never use.

One thing that must be taken into consideration when asking DO you believe in Extraterrestrial life is. E.T can be anything from a little green man to a trace of bacteria.With the sheer size of the universe, I would think the odds of at least one planet capable of supporting single celled life is pretty good. It would be beyond Ignorant to say E.T does not exist.

Shimano Curado E7, unbeatable. You will be hard pressed to find a better reel for less than $200.

With the number of active members that would participate you could probably buy a Daiwa Steez Reel, and a Big Mac with fries.

Underwater fishing, Sweet.
