High School Sucks!
Calculus and Trigonometry are tough. It took me awhile to figure out that it wasn't about memorizing formulas and equations. It's about learning to solve a problem in a logical, methodical manner - from point A to point B - and being very thorough. Once I learned how to approach it differently, my grades shot up. Hope that helps you!

NW Roadtrip Anyone?
Was just there last weekend. I got a 3-10, 4-14, and a 5-10. Not to be outdone, Keri nailed a 6-13! And the water isn't even above 50 degrees yet!! Not sure if we can make it though. But we'll certainly try!

to guys that use all spinning gear????
I'd say that's contingent upon water clarity and cover. But as a general rule, I use Med/Light 6' 8" rods (G-Loomis and Fenwick Techna AV) paired with Abu-Garcia reels spooled with 8-10 lb P-Line. Again...a general rule. I'll go down in line weight in ultra-clear water, and use shorter, med action rods w/10 lb line for heavier cover with dingy water. It's more or less matching your line and equipment to the conditions.

do you think using only spinning reels is not "popular"

What about your State?
Fishing season is year 'round in Washington state. However, many smaller lakes are closed Nov-Apr. Just went out today and got a 3-10, 4-14, and 5-10. 8-)

How important are polarized sunglasses?
I have a small head, so it's hard for me to find glasses that fit my face snug like they should. I went through a lot of glasses until I found Hobie polarized glasses. These things fit great, and they work really, really well. They're a bit pricey, but you're not thinking about price when you're out there fishing with them. Here's a few articles that might help you decide which is right for you: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/fishing_glasses.html http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/polarized_glasses.html http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/sunglasses.html http://www.bassresource.com/fishing_lures/sunglasses.html http://www.bassresource.com/beginner/Fishing-glasses.html

I have 8 baitcaster and 5 spinning outfits in the boat. There are days when I never break out a baitcaster; and many a tournament that's been won on spinning gear. I know there are some folks that hate spinning gear (including my father), but that's a minority. If you want to consistently catch bass, you need to be versatile and master both.

Darter Heads
For 4-5" grubs, I'll use a 1/8-1/4 oz darter head IF the area I'm fishing isn't rocky. Otherwise I just end up donating tackle to the lake Gods. In those cases, I'll switch to a splitshot rig with a mojo weight. In real weedy situations, I'll Texas rig them just like a worm with a bullet weight. Probably the most unconventional way I fish them is weightless. I just buzz them across the surface. It looks like a frog with less commotion.
