Fenwick Elite Tech Smallmouth Series In-Depth Review
Great review Kevin and thanks for taking the time to share it. I have the 6'9" & 7'4" spinners coming in the mail. I'd not seen nor heard much about them before ordering them. You certainly seem satisfied which is making me feel less anxious about the purchase. I'll let you know how it goes. btw - for anyone in the market - you can thank me later - and you will. Retail on this rod is $129.99 check out these prices - with Free Shipping ! http://www.amazon.co...+smallmouth+rod+ A-Jay

Fenwick Elite Tech Smallmouth Series Rods
I'll let you know - they are en route at this time. As you are a rod builder, I did something you probably never have to do - I bought them (on line) without ever having ever seen or even held one. It's all about research, reputation and first hand knowledge, if available. Living in the North woods does not provide access locally to a large selection of higher quality tackle. But it does provide a nice local population of fishes. btw - I'm sending you a pm. A-Jay

Feathered Trebles
Some top water plugs and suspending jerkbaits. A Jigging spoon is also a good place to hang one. A-Jay

I do - I have a couple, one is a Kistler Graphite Plus 7 footer http://www.tackletou...rcrankbait.html and the other one I just picked up is a Quantum Paul Elias Signature series rod. I have not fished it yet but it's advertised to have a very soft tip and forgiving action that's comparable to E-Glass, but with the light weight of graphite. It's specifically suited for fishing open-water structure using deep-diving crankbaits. - Let the Kneeing & Reeling begin ! A-Jay

Tried as I may, I could not hold out any longer. I broke down and took the plunge. Next season will undoubtedly include many stories centering around lost, damaged and out of tune baits. ~ And hopefully a few Fat Bass. Though I do realize that this is barely a Started Kit, I will Not be passing this information on to The Mrs. Come on Spring ! A-Jay

Does anyone have experience with this series of rods? I've always been a Fenwick fan and these look pretty sweet. I found a very reasonable price on them and I'm very close to pulling the trigger. A-Jay http://www.fenwickfi...at.php?k=472009

The "how To Pick A Fight" Thread
Enjoy ~ A-Jay One year, I decided to buy my mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift... The next year, I didn't buy her a gift. When she asked me why, I replied, "Well, you still haven't used the gift I bought you last year!" And that's how the fight started..... ________________________________ My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to have Sex?' 'No,' she answered. I then said, 'Is that your final answer?' She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes..' So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend." And that's when the fight started... ________________________________ I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. "I'll have the rump steak, rare, please." He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?" "Nah, she can order for herself." And that's when the fight started..... _______________________________ My wife and I were sitting at a table at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunken man swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table. I asked her, "Do you know him?" "Yes", she sighed, "He's my old boyfriend. I understand he took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear he hasn't been sober since." "My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?" And then the fight started... ________________________________ When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the shed, the boat, making beer.. Always something more important to me. Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway." The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp. ______________________________ My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels. She asked, "What's on TV?" I said, "Dust." And then the fight started... ________________________________ Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to the van and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day. I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back; now with a different anticipation, and whispered, "The weather out there is terrible." My loving wife of 5 years replied, "And, can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?" And that's how the fight started... _______________________________ My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary. She said, "I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 250 in about 3 seconds." I bought her a bathroom scale. And then the fight started...... ______________________________ After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's License to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability too.' And then the fight started... ________________________________ My wife was standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to me, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.' I replied, "Your eyesight's dang near perfect." And then the fight started........ ________________________________ I rear-ended a car this morning...the start of a REALLY bad day! The driver got out of the other car, and he was a DWARF!! He looked up at me and said 'I am NOT Happy!' So I said, 'Well, which one ARE you then?' That's how the fight started
