  1. Yeah probably gonna end up with a pump. Don't hunt that much to justify spending that much on a shotgun. Sure am glad the bait monkey doesn't have a hunting counterpart.
  2. Wow, that's great service there. 4 replies in as many minutes. Forgot one point, kinda looking for an autoloader more than a pump. I'll edit the original post too. Thanks again.
  3. I'm looking to purchase a shotgun here in the next few months. It will be used for Dove and Rabbit. Possibly duck and geese. I'm looking to only spend about 3 or 4 hundred bucks. Any hunters out there that can offer suggestions. EDIT: Looking for an autoloader over a pump.
  4. Holy mother of ....... That thing was huge. How do you mistitle that video though? And I wanna know what happened to that guy filming.
  5. Totally worth it. The big tvs are much cheaper than an LCD, but more expensive than a DLP. I have a 50" 720p Panasonic. My buddy has a 42" 1080p Panasonic. He has had his for over two years and I have had mine for over a year and a half. We both game constantly. The "burn in" that you here about is over rated. It's barely noticeable and gone after a few minutes of normal TV. I wouldn't worry too much about what brand you buy, my research I did before I bought mine said that there is only like 10 companies in asia making plasmas. They just get different cases. Prices seem to be leveling off. I bought mine for a little more than what my buddy payed for his almost six months earlier. As for them not lasting very long. I forget what my life expectancy is on my TV but at 8 hrs a day it worked out to be like 12 yrs.
  6. Went out fishin last night with some guys from work. Caught this nice little kicker fish, 3lb 11oz. Pulled like a mule though. Buddy caught one that weighed 4lb 9oz.
  7. It's all a scam. They fine you when you don't water your lawn and keep it green. Then turn around and hit you with a huge water bill.
  8. Inline thermoforming machine operator.
  9. Thanks, the frogs sink but i apperciate the suggestion.
  10. I was wading a creek yesterday for smallies, fishing a ribbit with a trailer hook. I was getting lots of strikes or so I thought. I started calming down and really watching what they were doing. Not sure how to explain it, it was like they were just rolling against the frog. They totally ignored my buddies buzzbait. He switched to a frog also and they were rolling against it too. Changed retrieve speed, color(from smoke to baby bass), paused, nothing seemed to help. Anyone ever seem this before? Confused and frustrated.
  11. I had mono my senior year of high school. I was down for almost a month. I couldn't do anything. So tired. Any sort of simple activity required a two hour nap to recover. Lost like 15 lbs because I couldn't keep any food down. Good luck trying to wake board. I'd recommend staying home and resting over anything. Just push fluids and rest and you'll get over it. You are stuck with it the rest of your life but you won't ever have it again. Kinda like chicken pox. Interesting that you had strep too. Mine was initially diagnosed as strep. The antibiotic that they gave me reacted to the mono and I broke out in hives all over my body.
  12. Could you guys post or PM pics of how you have them rigged with the keeper. I just bought some trailer hooks and I'm confused on how to do it.
  13. I'm going to a known pike lake later this week. I'm targeting bass. Anything I can use to "pike proof" my setup without using a steel leader? Something like heavier mono or braid, flouro maybe?
  14. It's a fiberglass boat and mounted on the transom. The epoxy I was talking about was what I used to seal the mounting holes. Hoff- Yes it has sensitivity setting. It is only 1 ft or so from the trolling motor. But the wires are ran as far away from it as possible. I've gotten the same results just drifting. With everything else disconnected from the battery. My next day on the water will probably be spent on the water with customer service.
  15. I've got a 1965 Sears Semi-V hull. Looks alot like yours, mine is fiberglass though. Don't know a real weight limit, but I've had me at 230 and my buddy at 205 in it. Along with a 40 lb battery trolling motor, and other misc gear. Oh and it's decked. Runs fine, floats. Haha. Guy I bought it from said he used to have a 9.9 on it. Can help you there though.
  16. Reently bought my first fishfinder, an eagle cuda 242. Read the book, installed the transducer, mounted the unit. Let the epoxy resin sit, hit the water. Works great I know exactly how deep the water is. Problem I'm not seeing anything else on it. I either have nothing between me and the bottom or I have an almost completly black screen. If I turn the fish ID feature on, most of it goes away. But it displays a thousand fish 4 ft down in the water, just nose to tail all the way across the screen. I've tried turning down the sensitivity, up. I don't get it. It's transom mounted. I need help before i show the depthfinder how close it can get to the bottom of the lake. Thanks.
  17. 2 1/8 oz jigheads, tied about a foot apart. Random twister tail grub on the end. We all went crappie fishing saturday. It was slow but we probably got about 50 between the ten of us. Couldn't really get a pattern though. We were using red/green, black/white, clear/blue, etc. Check your regs too, might not be legal to use two jigheads.
  18. I had almost the same problem. Mine ended up being the connector on the truck was bad. Corrosion and what not from the winter.
  19. I own 2 right and 2 left handed baitcasters. It's unusual at first but now I'm trying to sell the right handed ones to my buddy.
  20. Palomar for everything. Just easy for me. What I was taught when I started fishing a couple years ago, and just kept using it.
  21. I'm doing a similar boat to the original poster, mine is 42 inch wide and fiberglass. I didn't have any problem with the original bench height decks I bought mine with. I'm currently redoing mine. Sorry for the hijack. What do you mean you floored it too heavy? I'm using 1x2's about 12" on center. Just curious what you meant.
  22. whatcha catch 'em on? :
  23. I live here in the fort. How bad is the water in misery that our lakes our clear? I only know of a couple that I would call clear. Shoot me a pm or hop on AIM> ego baller 84
  24. We used floating jig heads this weekend while walleye fishing. It was sorta carolina rigged. We used big 3/4 oz trolling sinkers, 3 or 4 ft leaders and floating jig heads. They aren't big dressed jigs, just a curly tail trailer on it.
