Name this snake!
I have them in my pond, and they do scare the crap out me sometimes, when they sneek up on me. They'll bite if you step on them. Other than that they are harmless.

What do tigers dream of?
Tigers dream of taking home skanks that work at the local Waffle House, C-list porn stars, wannabe models, and hot Swedish women weilding golf clubs.

Grizzly 1900 dip
The hard part about quitting is that even the tobacco free stuff can still rot your teeth, and give you mouth cancer. I put Nicorette in my gum like a dip for about 2 weeks.

How much did you spend this Memorial Day Weekend?
No fishing stuff, I looked real hard, and decided to pick up some footboards and a highway bar for my bike instead. - $480 at Dennis Kirk with free shipping.

Grizzly 1900 dip
Do yourself a favor and quit now. I chewed for 15 years ( I'm 32 now). I had to quit due to doing too much damage to my mouth, and am now in the process of handing my paychecks over to my dentist to fix the problems. Oh and having gum tissue removed from your mouth is very painful.

Any dream interpreters?
It means you need a de humidifier in your house, and a really good sump pump.

Just got home from seeing these guys
Personally, I think country music sucks, but it was a nice song nonetheless. I won't be running out to get the cd though.

Kerry Wood puts wind in sails!
If you don't know Kerry Wood is the Indians closer, who makes 10mil a year, and royally sucks. I know the Indians aren't that good right now, but this guy is laughing all the way to the bank 'cause he can't pitch worth spit.

What does your name (Handle) mean?
OIF because at the time I signed up, I had just got home from a deployment to Iraq. Basser, because I like to fish for bass

Next rod selection
I love my 704C, and have a 683C also. I think you can't go wrong with either.

Favorite way to rig trick worm
Trick worms are my most used plastics. Wacky rigging is phenomenal, also I like to put a nail weight in the bottom end, and nose hook it. It looks pretty tasty bouncing and hopping around.

New spinning rod
Everyone is going to poo poo my recommendation, but It's a good rod for the price. Check out the Ugly Stik Lite. I would go with the 6'6" MH just because the 6' M is mor like a ML. Also Allstar Select rods are good for the money.

Glad To See Tebow Went In The 1st Round
If you like the idea of trading 3 picks to move back up into the first round to get a guy that would have still been there in the third round, well then congratulations. Tebow could be a solid pro, and is a great person, but a first round pick for a project is really steep.

The Detroit Lions....
Earl Thomas is gonna be sweet, I also read that Choice is on that list. I know they would like to trade Barber, but he is already showing signs of wearing down, and won't net as high of a pick. if the Lions get Haynesworth...It's gonna be fun to see.

Re: Big Bens Punishment...
He had had multiple incidents at Miami(Ohio) that were swept under the rug, and now 2 within a year, and possibly a third. The info that was released to the public is disturbing, and if it wasn't for Mr. Blash( the investigating officer, who was forced to resign) he would have been arrested. I hate the Steelers with a passion, and am glad that they are imploding as a team, but it is a shame that he even put himself in that position in the first place. If he was Joe Average, he would have been convicted and sentenced by now. On th lighter side, my buddies and I have been blowing up the Steelers phone lines demanding that he be traded while posing as Stoolers fans.

The Detroit Lions....
If they don't take Okung, Matt Millen must still be behing the scenes. A big run on OT's is expected in the top 15 picks, and there are going to be some very good DT's in the 2nd and 3rd round. Detroits current LT is Jeff Backus who is a better fit at LG, and they need a guy who protect there grossly overpayed QB. A guy like Tyson Alualu would be nice to have at DE opposite KVB, and with Sammie Lee Parker and Corey Williams in the middle would make a sick Dline. That is all

P-Line CX Premium, Good or Bad
I use 6lb. on spinning gear, and 10-12 lb. on baitcasting gear. For the money I like it, and not any problems with it.
-
Powell Max
I love the 683C, and use for T-rigs, Spinnerbaits, and jigs. The 704C is equally as effective for those techs, but is alot stouter. It still has an XF tip, and isn't a boomstick. It is mainly my jig rod now.

When bass are hitting bugs what do you use?
Up here, when we have an insect hatch, I pull out my Noodle rod that I use for Steelhead (It's a spinning rod substitute for non- fly fishermen) I use 6lb mono because it floats, with a slip bobber, and a fly which I usually tipped with a maggot, or half of a wax worm. You could problebly get away with using a ML or Med rod because of the weight of the slip bobber, just be careful with the hook set.
-
do you think using only spinning reels is not "popular"
I fish at a small local reservoir, and rarely see anyone else using casting gear.

Psychology..
You should write your paper on cause and effect of impulse buying( The Bait Monkey ). You could get alot of input from managers at any retail store, and use professional, and subjective answers all about it.

2-pc rod for a trunk?
It's definitely not a Loomis, but I have a 2 pc Ugly Stik Lite. It does good for a rod that I keep under my truck bench. I keep 10lb. Spider Wire on mine for the same reasons stated above, and only keep a 3600 box with tackle in it.
