Well, I wasn't too far off, now was I? I missed on the Giants, but so did pretty much everyone else. Other than that, my predictions were fairly spot on.

Hey folks, Hank Parker just posted his latest article! http://www.bassresource.com/hank-parker-fishing/spinnerbait-fishing-experiment.html Enjoy!

When I lived in an apartment, I kept my boat at my sister's house, which was about 15 mins away. When I moved to a condo, no such luck. But I found a storage facility (actually 2) that had indoor, locked storage w/power hookup complete with 24/7 access. Believe it or not, one of them was Public Storage. Keep in mind that a storage unit with a light bulb in it is good enough. There are adapters for lights that have plug-ins. Oops...did I say that in my outloud voice?

Looks like the NFC West is going to the Superbowl! Go Hawks!

I made this glossary and posted it on this site nearly 17 years ago: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing_lures/bass_fishing.html Since then, it's been copied all over the Internet. So I suppose that means it's a complete list....that, or nobody could do any better.

Those are scams, hands down. We've seen these many times over the years, via people like you asking about them. They always turn out to be a scam.

We're constantly traveling 2 or more hours to various lakes, often staying overnight at local campgrounds. Never had a problem with hookups or vandals. That said, I always lock all the compartments, remove all electronics and store them in the truck, and always put the cover on the boat. Most crimes are crimes of opportunity, so making it a PIA to even get inside the boat, let alone fiddle with locked compartments - all while the boat is hooked up to the very camper we're staying in - seems to be enough of a deterrent. As for traveling long distance - yes, ensure the bearings are in top shape. Stop every 1-2 hrs and feel them to see if they're too warm. It could save you a disaster on the road. Also - and this is critical - never rely on tread depth to determine whether or not a trailer tire is "good". They can be well past their prime and still have plenty of tread on them. Instead, go by age. Tires need to be replaced every 6-8 years, regardless of tread depth. The rubber gets old, and the sidewalls wear out. I know many guys who've had blowouts that said, "And there was plenty of tread left! I don't get it." And when I ask them how old the tires are, they almost always state longer than 8 years. I replace my tires every 6 years, and have new brakes installed every 10 (and I mean a complete break overhaul with all new parts, not rebuilt). I also always trailer with the cover on. I know many guys with cigarette burns in their seats from OTHER motorists tossing their lit cigarettes into their boats while going down the road. Plus traveling with the cover keeps the boat clean.

Wow, that's really rough. Thoughts and prayers sent!

It's great to have them aboard. Raymarine is a very well respected and established company. We're thrilled they chose to sponsor us, and even more excited they're supporting bass fishing!. Have you checked out their website yet? Touch screen displays that are slim and sleek! Pretty sweet!

You're asking a great question. Many folks just assume they'll hit their target in a gun fight, and don't think about the backstop. 9mm has plenty of stopping power and has less of a possibility of going through walls (I said less). Many 9mm bullets these days have close to the same velocity of 40mm, so that plays a role in collateral damage too. In general, you also have more control with a 9mm vs. larger caliber because there's less of a recoil. A 9mm paired with the right bullet will be plenty for home defense, and reduce the chances of collateral damage.. Flashlight attachments are better than laser sights. You need to see your target first! Final bit of advice: get training with your new handgun, and I mean full-on, multi-day course training ... and do it every year. Because the moment you pull out a handgun in a confrontation, you're going to get sued, regardless of whether or not you point it at anything, or shoot it. And if you shoot someone, you'll not only get sued by the "victim", but you'll also be prosecuted by the state. So the more training you have, the better off you'll be in the courts, because you can prove you're not reckless and have proper training. This goes hand-in-hand with frequent, documented, practice. The more training and practice you have, the less chance there is for collateral damage.

It was a little iffy in the 1st quarter, but the Hawks settled down and went to business. They shut down Washington while amassing 24 unanswered points. Very impressive win, especially for those who said Seattle couldn't win on the road. Bring on Atlanta!

Here comes the Legion of Boom!
