  1. Thank goodness. The next terrorist attack is surly going to be done using crank baits.
  2. Welcome from the NOVA Been checking out the Potomac?
  3. It's been a while since ive ran an open source and have never run that version of linux. However frequently when you pop in the install disk it will allow you to partition your hard drive before installing the OS. The big question is A) are you installing suse on the same hard drive as you currently have Vista on B ) Is vista currently installed over all of the hard drive. If you have a fresh drive for SUSE it will make it easier just make sure the one with suse is your main boot device so that it has the boot sector. However for grins I found a nice article http://www.testmy.net/t-19490 "A couple of minutes into this process you will see a bunch of [ ok ] lines. This is when the init script is being run. This is the Linux equal to Services in Windows. After everything has started you will see a pretty little screen with GParted launched. It functions almost exactly the same as the old Partition Magic." Looks like partitioning shouldn't be a problem. So you can do it I suppose easily without having a fresh drive. Please remember to follow the #1 Rule... BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO THIS! I cannot tell you how many people came into the shop I used to work at who had blown up all their data trying to do very similar things.
  4. Cornflakes and flat beer. Don't knock it till you try it.

    Agreed A bad day fishing doesn't haunt you for the next year.
  6. Week and a half ago maybe two weeks ago. And they seem to come out after dark is well set. Then they come up to the surface we were out Sunday and we saw a good 3-4 of em swimming around for a while. They were not near as exciting as they were as that time though.
  7. Couldn't really tell it was dark. They were all around the surface and they were making huge jumps every now and then from lower down.
  8. Anyone who was with me and my buddy in the canoe when we were fishing at around 11 at night watching all the snakeheads swimming around would not call them docile. I have never seen anything like it. They were feeding left and right and they were feeding hard. Had some big ones run into the boat and jump outa the water it was pretty creepy.
  9. Welcome! Nice to meet another NOVA fellow Not familiar with any clubs but some of the other guys on here may know. Where about on the Potomac are you fishing?
  10. This is what I got for my mom for back in the day. 90% sure this worked before we had cable. On a side note it doesn't let you select a show like CSI and it records. You have to set a date and time... so you could just get VHS off craigslist and save some $$ and buy another rod. http://reviews.cnet.com/dvd-recorders/panasonic-dmr-es20s/4505-9141_7-31497649.html?tag=mncol;lst
  11. I suspect we can directly relate this to the snakehead over here.
  12. We fish right by the military base. Throw down the weed lines with a spinnerbait and you will catch some. Around 7 o'clock we have what we have fondly nicknamed "Minnow rain". The first time we honestly thought it was raining until we realized it was all the little fish jumping out of the water like crazy. The fishing only gets better from there until about 9
  13. If you caught a fishing pole its my friends he wants it back ;D Nice catches!
  14. Freedom please! :
  15. We were fishing some very clear very pressured waters in NY and one of the three fish we caught was on the pumpkin berkley power worm. My vote is yes
  16. Maybe its a bad night for fishing. Here's mine tonight. *barely make it out for peak fishing by the time the boats out suns down and its pretty dark* Tie line. Test how sharp the hook is by sinking it into my finger. Cast - Get a bite. Fail to set hook properly. hour later.... Finally get that big snakehead that was roaming around to bite. before I set the hook my line just snapped in half he barely touched it I still dont know what happened. Put on second lure and before I cast... Proceed to almost tip the boat trying to grab my buddies fishing rig he threw in the water in a butter finger moment. Watch it sink to the bottom of the Potomac. After pulling up weeds for two hours we gave up that we were not getting it back and retired home. I think tonight was just an unlucky fishing night :-?
  17. You should be ashamed of yourself. > I pee into a small coffee can which so happens to be where I put my ciggy butts at. Then at the end of the day I dump the whole thing into the lake. Best laugh of the day thank you so much.
  18. I'm going for one of those for sure they sound fantastic. I decided its time to get a frogging setup when the other night we were in the nastiest muck I've ever been in and I was watching fish jump everywhere and I couldn't bring in anything. Thanks so much for the help guys!
  19. Sounds great, no hurry at all my friends just playing with the idea of getting one. He's getting tired of the bait caster casting twice as far as his spin ;D
  20. -Dink : I was looking in casting not frogging rods... I'm dumb thank you for pointing out the obvious for me -Actually its not in stock *sigh* Dan - I'm not this rod is going to break the bank unless I find someone to buy more of my junk hah. However my friend was talking going to bait casting sooo if you want shoot me a price and ill let him know. Wish I had known before I just picked one up !
  21. I cannot find the Max Powell 735 ANYWHERE. Anyone know offhand where you can get one? Ive been looking for over an hour and I'm normally pretty good at finding stuff :/
  22. Wonderful thanks for all the advice guys. I really appreciate your time on the responses. Now I just need to decide which. I was really leaning heavy power but the powell max is MH interesting.
  23. Oh yeah important to note... I need to stick under 150... 100 preferably I am selling all my old toys to afford this. Casting rod too im paring with a Citica 201D
  24. I am looking for a rod for frogging but I only have one other medium power rod so im interested in one that has multi use. Either way my question is MH or Heavy. I am leaning heavy but I think I might be able to get a good deal on a MH and I am tempted Advice?
