Shssh! That sounds like something that my wife would say. Hahahahahah watch out...it might be....

I'm going to have to start throwing mine more now after reading all this. Probably pick up a couple colors and a couple MDs now too.

I've wanted to try one for bass to see how it'd do just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Great catch!

x2 on the jigs but for a smaller presentation I like the rage tail chunks or the tiny paca chunks

Is that the huge shallow shad rap?

x2! I have read many of Chris' post and have became a better fisherman because of them and I know from that alone that he knows what he is talking about and ANYTHING he posts is definitely worth my time. If personal experience with his previous information isn't enough to convince someone then I'm not sure what is. Great post Chris and don't let these other members keep you from posting stuff like this.

I agree with the mojo I really like mine but if I had to get another rod it'll either be a vendetta or the BuCoo. Mainly because I just want to try others, but the mojo is a great rod for the money.

If your not craving to go fishing, this will do the trick

I got to check out the bluegills at bps yesterday and they look even better in person. I'm definitely going to be picking some up now.

Yeah one of my most used combos is the Abu Garcia Black Max paired with a black max rod! haha

25 fish between 3 and 5 pounds in 2 nites isn't fun? 3-5lb fish are dinks? Say what? Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Poor thing only 25 dinks between 3-5lbs in 2 nights sounds terrible! :

x2 Gorgeous!

Those are some nice catches! What were they caught on?

If they're a decent ways away try and chuck and stun grenade between you and him and there's a bunch of places left open to shoot him after that.

the platnium i am looking at is at my dicks sporting goods on sale right now for 5.97 do you all think that they are worth that?? Sure, I'd get it. But then again, you can just continue to take other peoples' word for things and not learn for yourself. I tell you what, try it, if you hate it, then you know not to pay 25 for one. If you like it, then you got a great bait for inexpensive pricing. What's this fishing tackle section for then if you can't ask for advice on the value of lure?

Looks like some great catches, congrats! When you saw the carp near the surface what did you do to catch it? I've seen groups of 3/4 huge carp do that at the place i fish and everything seems to scare them away.

I'm not sure why everyone else has so many problems. I went in there today to get the Pro Qualifier that's on sale online for 80 so after reading all this I printed it out before I left because they're about an hour away but ended up leaving the paper in my car. I went up to the person working the reel counter and asked if they honored online sale prices and he said yeah and when I went to pay he rung it up for 75 dollars. Great customer service and very friendly people.

That skeet reese rod has really nice grips on it and feels nice holding it, but that highlighter yellow looks hideous and it doesn't seem to balance as well as the vendetta. I can't wait to check out the BuCoo's though.

The citica is probably the best reel in it's price range by a large margin. I'd pair it with the new Abu Garcia Vendetta rods. I got to hold one today and like The Natural has been saying, it is VERY well balanced and feels like next to nothing while holding it. Plus being 80 dollars is another little bonus.

Yeah I'm pretty sure there's a set lowest price stores can sell stuff at that's set by the manufacturer. Not sure though I'd also like to see those are way too good of deals to pass up if it's legit, but like said before if it seems too good to be true, then it probably is.

Man I want that freestyle so bad. I didn't think I'd actually ever spend close to 100 on a lure, but this one I can't pass up. As well as the weedless 8" Hudd i'll be picking up.

I absolutely HATE that british guy. I hate roy, but i LOVED him beating that ****** bag. I knew it would happen too and that sweeny got so cocky because he landed a couple hits then roy picked him up slammed him, then you got to watch him punch him while he's squirming on the ground i loved it. Saturday is going to be a bunch of good fights though. I can't wait to see if Kimbo has really gotten any better. I also really like big baby he's probably my favorite from the show so i can't wait to see him beat mat. And I'm pretty sure Brendan will get the K/O or TKO in the second round.

Back when I played Halo 2 online on xbox I broke one of my controllers and put a nice little spot on my TV. Haha the controllers are too expensive now for me to use them as anger relief.

Pretty hard to find the Curado e for 100. If the prodigy's sell for 100 then if your getting a new Curado that's usually around 180 then pretty much your getting that 100 dollar rod for 20. Sounds pretty good to me, but I've never used any Cabelas brand rods.
