Impressive!

Well yeah, but ... the assumption is that you are not in the grip of the snake, immobilized. They strike hard and would wrap you pretty quick. Would be lucky if someone was with you and had some hard liquor or rubbing alcohol they could use. It isn't like you would even have the ability to do so by yourself.

Oh my. My youngest son, a soccer player, loves Neymar, and gets after me when I tell him he's (Neymar) a whiner and actor. Not demeaning his talent, but I 100% agree. What was it 7 rolls after a minor foul? Absolutely ridiculous.
-
Yes, for wacky rigs. But not often. And...ahem...for bass fishermen, we call them floats . Makes them sound less "stuff of kids".
-
Agreed. They were my pick going in. Now I'm wavering between Belgium, Croatia, Brazil... But it really is all about which team shows up to play at any given game! Been a good World Cup to watch so far.

Mexico falls, all credit to Sweden in a big win over our southern neighbor! Germany embarrassment. Not much else to say.

Welcome aboard! Based on your pix, you have some lures that should work on smallies. I'd also encourage you to read as many of the articles on bassresource as you can, as well as tuning into the many videos on getting started.

Argentina makes it through!!

First of all, bass fishermen should call them "floats" instead of "bobbers" since it sounds more official ... Well, technically, floats are not the red/white ones. I have used and sometimes use pencil style or other Thill variety, even Asian variety of floats. My sons and I have caught very nice bass with a wacky worm rigged under a float. They work! Though for 99% of my bass fishing I do not use floats. Moreso with panfishing.

Welcome aboard!

Ronaldo decided to direct his PK to the goalie in order to show us he's human, LOL, just like Messi. Wish the games weren't at the same time in both slots!

Welcome aboard!

I'll give you some lee-way on Messi and coaching. I don't know as much as you, likely As for Croatia's midfield. Yes. Dangerous and ... dangerous. The team that underestimates them loses. And Neymar. A true salesman. He should have been yellowed for his "sales job" in the box in the last game. That's part of my gripe with him. He's a salesman through and through. Fouls are acted upon like a Shakespearean actor. Good grief!

Absolutely agree! I'd add Harry Kane to that list, but a distant third. He's been quite on point for England despite opponents. Croatia is a sleeper to go to quarter finals, I think. Heck, they have two of the best mid fielders in the game, so they could go further. Ronaldo is carrying Portugal, and he's doing an AMAZING job. Messi...has all but disappeared, but in his defense, I don't think Argentina is doing a good job of coaching or ... well, anything related to playing the beautiful game correctly or effectively. Spain is loaded, and Belgium is poised for glory if they can keep it rolling. Brazil has been "meh" for me. Nothing quite like the teams of old which were so fun and amazing. I just can't get in to Neymar like my sons can. He doens't "wow" me at all. Good, yes, great...maybe.

Yeah, that and a few other fouls in the box in various games should have gone to VAR...
-
Germany came out with one mission: win at all costs. Their loss to Mexico was humiliating for them. But Mex sure made a huge statement with that game. I forgot to add Mexico to my list of impressive teams. The reffing has actually been really good this year, and I love how VAR has assisted in correcting calls. Some calls tho, have been bad...

No, at least not to my knowledge. So I had to look it up! The Virginia Institute of Marine Science is in my neck of the woods, and it seems we do get red tide here on occasion. http://www.vims.edu/bayinfo/habs/index.php

It's an algae bloom...best defined here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_tide

Gosh, hope you get better quickly. Hate inner ear infections!

Anyone else soccer/futbol fans here? Huge in my house. Watched every game of the first round thus far. Belgium, England, Russia, Croatia super impressive. Picked Germany early on, but Belgium looks stronger than the rest so far. England looks awesome this morning. Chime in if you're watching, are a fan, of the Beautiful Game!

Eradicating invasive species in FL is a nearly impossible task. It's too bad these cool creatures are affecting so many things like electrical power, etc. Just keep 'em away from nuclear power... FL is the saltwater fishing capital of the world with so many varieties of fish coming thru via currents. Now FL is gunning for supremacy over Madagascar, Australia, Congo, Brazil, for animal capital of the world!
