BPS rods? How do they perform?
I have two MH Bionic Blade two piece spinning rods that I use for pike and bass. They travel well and are well rounded rods, jack of all trades if you will. They do alot of stuff well, not much great. But they are extremely adequate. They've held up to 10 lb+ pike and carp and bass over five pounds. PS- I also have a 2 piece Tourney Special, ML spinning that is good for treble hook lures, but the action on it is sssssssllllllllloooooooowwwwww.

fish species ID?
That's really not evn that big. I've seen some of tehm in golf course ponds that had to be pushing 90 lbs. Huge fish, just huge. You sure you're not talking about common or asian carp? Just asking,in no way confrontational.

carry firearms while fishing?
I'm not against carrying by any stretch, but if the gun is with you in the boat, how is it keeping you from getting your truck stolen?

Feelin' for the southerner's
FYI Washington DC has been shut down for several days..., I told you better days were coming ;D Having Congress not in session probably saves us money. I'll have to give Obama credit, he seems to be keeping his appointments, dispite the weather.

fly fishing for panfish help
7 or 8 foot three weight, depending on how open the area your fishing will be (7 footer is easier to manage in tighter quarters). I use 10 lb mono asmy leader and mayber tie in some 6 lb as a tippet. Past that, as mentioned small poppers, foam spiders, sliders (kinda like a backwards popper), wooly buggers in varying sizes with and without bead heads,rubber legged stone fly nymphs apprximate crawfish larvae. Take those and you'll be successful anywhere.

They're all right. Except for the bow target, there's enough common carp for that.

is hunting with a AR or m16 cheating?
Remington's had several models of semi-auto guns in deer-appropriate calibers. I believe teh 7400 and 7600 were also semi-autos.

what is it?
Alright then, you've got me. Being as you're in FL, could it be some sort of exotic? CAtfish and bowfin can't hybridze, genetically speaking, if that's what you're hoping. At least not without alot of lab help.

First Hair Jigs
X2 on what DS said. Good tight underwraps, and add the hair a pinch at a time. Pull it as tight as you can. If you don't break the thread every few jigs, you're not pulling tight enough.

what is it?
Catfish, maybe a bullhead that's moving along in decomposition.

What line to use when bed fishing
I use Fireline 30 # Braid with a 12# fluoro leader. Don't let the debaters get to you, unless they just don't fish during 1/4 of the year, they're fishing over spawning fish. Please treat them gently, and C&R.

Progressive auto Ins
X2 on State Farm. If you bundle home, car, and if you want life insurance, their respective rates are probably the cheapest. And you get fantastic customer service and quick turnaround. Between me, my brother and my parents, we've had 60 years with State Farm across four states and never had bad service or felt dissatisfied with how they processed a claim.
