Walmart - High Cost Low Price
I fail to find the connection between walmart and communism. Walmart is the classic example of a capitalistic enterprise. They compete with others in a free market and by outcompeting them they maintain the majority of the market. Walmart is only as big as they are because consumers have demonstrated over and over that walmart is meeting their demands. I think your problem is not with walmart but other consumers. In the town I work, Walmart opened up last year. Before they did half the town was up in arms about how it will destroy our area. They were on the news and in local periodicals and led public demonstrations. Now whenever I go there its funny how many of the people griping about walmart shop there. ;D ;D ;D Our business has increased due to increased traffic in the area and walmart pays more than most of the little shops in the area. I LOVE WALMART.... i just wished they had thick cut chops and better steaks. This is all i have time to write, I have to go pick up some senkos at wally-world.

Standardizing Fish Hooks
I could not agree more. I recently bought a pack of 4/0 BPS worm hooks and they look like 2/0 or 3/0 of other brands.

cleaning rusty hooks?
Soak them in coffee.

Walmart Scale
Nice fat fish. Keep your head up and keep fishing.

River, fast current.
I would try a heavy jig, a carolina rig with a lot of lead, or a crank. Cast into the current and work it back WITH the current. The bass should be facing upcurrent waiting for the food to come to them. Look for any breaks in the current where a bass could escape the current and hide out for forage(log, stick, or rock). You may not see anything sticking up or just beneath the surface, but if you pay attention to the surface of the water you may notice a irregular flow of the water... maybe a swirl or a spot where the water looks to be moving slower. This is an indication that something under the surface is disrupting the flow of water. Also if there is a place where the shore extends out and creates a "pocket" where there is less current you are more than likely to find fish. Good luck and have fun.

Tht's funny right thur
POTTER VALLEY, Calif. A Mendocino County woman who was trying to kill mice in her trailer with a gun ended up shooting herself and another person. The 43-year-old woman pulled out her .44-caliber Magnum revolver after she saw the mice scurrying across the floor of her trailer on Highway 20 in Potter Valley, sheriff's officials said. But she accidentally dropped the gun, which went off as it struck the floor. The bullet went through the woman's kneecap, bounced off the keys sitting on the belt loop of a 42-year-old man in the trailer and grazed the man's groin before ending up in his coin pocket. Authorities did not release the shooting victims' names. The mice escaped the shooting unharmed. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Story is courtesy of Fox news and AP

swimming pool to bass tank
I was wondering if anyone has or knows someone who has turned their smimming pool into a bass tank. Is it possible? How? I hate dumping all this money into a pool that is rarely used so I'm thinking of turning it into something useful.

carolina keeper
I used this product for the first time today and I was very pleased. No slippage at all with a 1/4 oz weight. If you like to swap between texas and c-rig or adjust your distance between your weight and worm, you should check this out. Good bye leaders!!

First fish on a Fluke
Nothing huge but I finally caught a fish using a zoom fluke (baby bass). I thought I had a better picture but the fish jumped right as I took the picture. All in all it was a great day. I caught 2 on a fluke, 3 on a small sexy shad crank, 3 on a watermelon senko on a football jig-head, and 1 on a zara puppy. The best part was spending the day with my dad on his day off and finishing off the evening with a couple brews and a pizza from mellow mushroom.

That thing is a beast I think the first mount looks best, but I like the wood on the second mount.

Can somebody explain this?
I saw a a school of bass do the same thing to a school of shad . I have never seen this happen before in freshwater and it reminded me of a school of bonitas or jacks. To bad they all went down before we got to them :'(

New reel?
I have an stx and I am about to get another. You will not be disapointed in this reel. It casts a mile and has a very smooth drag. Like Micro said, you will be happy with both as they are great reels.
