Tournament Results
Good job GBF!! Kudos to Mr. Anderson for giving back to his community. As I understand it, this gentleman hosts these tournies at his own lake and puts up the prize money himself. Great job, both of you!!

UPS and Fishing Rods (A Nasty Combo)
Lets look at the facts first. I'm not defending UPS because I work there, actually, I pretty much hate the company right now BUT...... UPS has less damages than any other shipping company. Point blank, period. Check the numbers before making a decision on who to trust it with. The nature of the business will result in some damaged pkgs. As for the employees purposely smashing stuff....not in Providence. I can't speak for any other facility but that crap don't fly here. You would be fired on the spot, immediately if you were seen damaging someones parcel. No union rep will defend you for it either. This, like drugs and alchohol, is simply not tolerated.

Why I really enjoy this place
Skillet makes a good point. This site is a vision of Glenn's. The idea to have a bass fishing site that is a family friendly, tutorial/social board isn't a task many would take on. From day 1, the rules have been enforced with no waivering. In time,....this is what we got. My point, however, is that Glenn's vision, and our (mods) supervision, are only an outline. If the members chose not to stick to it, there would be no BR. We have set up and maintained a home but if the occupants don't agree with the vision, it falls flat on it's face. We are just proving to the world that folks from every age, every walk of life, religion, nationality CAN get along. (as long as we don't have to fish against each other,lol) MEMBERS are what makes a site special. Glenn just had the intuition to know what kind of site to build that would attract the kind of folks that would make this place different. NOT alot of sites, fishing or otherwise have a memberbase that participates and interacts together like we do. We really are one big family here. Like I said before, why don't I join a bass club? Because I'm already a member of a bass family!!

UPS and Fishing Rods (A Nasty Combo)
Pain- Be sure to keep that tube and the cap handy. MOST IMPORTANT is that you keep ALL ORIGINAL PACKING MATERIALS. This means the foam or paper, anything you used. This is how they get you, by saying "well you threw the packing away, how can we be sure it was packed right?". It is also in writing somewhere that it is your responsibility to do so. Being insured, you shouldn't have an issue.

New job= Mo' fishin!!
Oh man, talk about having the carpet pulled out from under you,....I got bumped. When I was told I could take that job, the manager running the bid said it was current. It wasn't. 3 people ahead of me had yet to submit their slips and one of them bid for that job. Nothing I can do. Now I'm not one to count my chickens before they hatch but this was the manager RUNNING the bid that told me I was clear. Said it would be posted monday morning. Soooo,..after a walking on air weekend,....I feel like I got punched in the gut. What can brown do to you?

Baitcaster vs. Spinning Reel??
Why is that??? This is not my experience, a heavy rod with a reel that has a locked down drag is just that, locked down. Line will break before reel's drag will fail. I have been fishing a lake with very little flip/pitch terrain. I use spinning gear there 95% of the time with NO issues. Baitcasters come with me to places like Fork but not the home lake. Very clear water where the long cast makes the difference. Spinning gear there, allllll day long,lol.

Battery Charging-part 2
