100 lb spring scale - You are quite the He Man if you can straight arm the fish that bottoms out that bad boy. A-Jay

I think both of those Michigan kids are about as wacky as they come . . . . . . . . A-Jay

Goose - That is one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE Bass photos. I just can't get over that HEAD ! It's just Out - Rageous ! ! A-Jay

So the secret is to not go so much ? Well that's not gonna happen . . . . A-Jay

I got a Brown one this year and I'll be going all out for a Green one next year. A-Jay

Oh - You're a Funny Guy . . . . . . . . . Not Iced up yet - and haven't you heard about the very late season Big Lizard Bite up North here ? A-Jay

I'm a fan of Mike and his Lunkerville show. No ones sell anything and there's no agenda. The mood on the show, which is certainly laid-back, combined with the camaraderie and mellow banter makes me believe that I am indeed - just watching two guys go fishing. It might not be everyones cup of tea - but I enjoy it. A-Jay

Thanks - I was not familiar with that SK bait - nice. A-Jay

Thanks Jeff - I'm not a big lizard fisherman but have heard good things about that one (especially from down south). But - you know what it's like - I was hoping to show them something different and BIGGER . . . . . . A-Jay

So do any of you lizard fishing pros have experience with this bait, specifically the 10 inch version, I'd really appreciate any feedback - good or bad. I'm looking to add a Large lizard bait to the arsenal and I'm hoping this might be possible option. Thank in advance A-Jay

Congrats on the PB ~ ! A-Jay

You have to watch this to the very end . . . A-Jay https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?v=1666083143117&set=vb.1568442155&type=2&theater

On a separate note ; You should appreciate this - Sing the following lyrics as the chorus to " the Twelve Days of Christmas" " . . . . Five Shoul - derr shruuuuuugssss.... four cable flyes, three french presses, two barbell curls, but no squats 'cuz' I've got a bad knee . . . " Happy Holidays A-Jay

I don't know the horse's name - but there is this from Wikidepia : "The horse's name is not "Bobtails" or "Bob". The horse is described as "bobtail" or "bobtailed" which refers to the tail as being "bobbed": cut shorter or docked, which was commonly done to the tails of carriage horses to keep them neat and reduce the chance of the tail getting caught in the reins." And I'll pass on the Fiffy Pudding. A-Jay

Nice ! Glenn you had to see that one coming. . . . . . . . A-Jay

Nice job man. Hope you can stick with it and reach your goals. btw - seeing definition at 268 - that's intense. A-Jay

That's Whacked ! The list of charges is pretty funny. - So as the emergency personnel are using the jaws of life (really ?) to extract these humans and then a Crane (Come on man) is hoisting these same humans up and out of the vehicle - I would love to see the footage from the police car's dash camera showing the looks on the faces of the Law Enforcement Officials at the scene . . . . . . . .had to be classic ! And in this day and age (story says it was 2008) how can there be no video footage of this . . . ? ? ? This I would watch. A-Jay

There always is . . . . more to the story that is. And your right, there are millions of women out there, but are they all the same ? For example - is there anyone just like slonezp - I say there is not. My point revolved around the old battle between $$ and material possessions vs a human spirit / soul mate. No Contest from where I'm sitting. And this goes both ways. The voice in my head says - RUN - and don't look back. Get your ride repaired and then work on surrounding yourself with people that share your philosophy - they actually do exist. You just have to look for them. A-Jay

I'd say that any quality and well maintained fishing tackle is like any other equipment, it should last. What's the difference if you use your gear for 6 years or you use it for three years and someone who takes care if it, uses it for three years ? No difference for me. I have purchased both rods and reels used (mostly from established BR members) and I been pleasantly surprised by what I received every time. A-Jay

So in the biggest picture - I urge you to think of it this way (hypothetically) - If you woke up tomorrow morning and both your "car" and your "Woman" were gone from the face of the earth, never to return; which loss would be greater to you ? It's a car, man. There are millions of them and I bet you know where you can get another one just like it. When you actually find the right person to be with, this situation would never happen. A-Jay

I do not know of any realistic angling applications for your newly shortened rod. However, if you put a high capacity reel on it, spool it up with braid, I suppose you could use it to fly a kite. A-Jay

Too many Very Beneficial Aspects of the sport to list. On a side note, Fishing has Reduced my income potential some what. A-Jay

That was one heck of a ride ~ ! A-Jay
