My New Absolute Favorite Sport !!!!!!!
Come Olympic time you will also never see me nor my dad leave the couch. It's like a peaceful game of strategy mixed with skill, and it just intrigues my mind. Speaking of favorite sports, have any of you guys tried Ultimate Frisbee? Very fun.

Kvd Line Conditioner
As for Yo-Zuri, I ALWAYS apply KVD to it, whether it soaks in or not, it does make a noticeable difference in the line. Also, I see no need to apply it to braid, the advantage I can think of is color retention but maybe not.

Big Time Sports Vs Fishing
If the weather is bad, ill eat pizza and watch the Cowboys or NASCAR, but if it's a beautiful day out there, I just play the radio broadcast on my phone, which clips nicely backwards into the otterbox case so I dont need headphone and dont have to hold it. I will say I actually enjoy listening to games on the radio because I dont get as worked up, and it leaves more to the imagination. I should also mention I watch the highlights later in the day if it's radio to clarify my mental images of what went on.

Do Bass Anglers Use Twitter?
I have a twitter, and a facebook. Facebook is for family, and posting things that they would be "ok" knowing. Twitter is a place for me and my friends to say whatever we want, because parents haven't "ruined" it yet. Another reason I prefer Twitter over facebook is because on FB most of my newsfeed now is stupid pictures that say "Like if you believe in god, ignore if you want to go to hell" or something stupid like that. Also on Twitter you can tweet some famous or relatively famous and actually get a reply within a few hours. Also my twitter is protected, along with my FB I believe

What Concert Have You Liked The Most?
When I was younger me and my dad saw Metallica, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit and some others at a concert and it was probably the best of my life. Note *** This was before linkin park sucked. Meteora and before.

Dobyns Savvy Series
IMO The Savvy series are mroe or less brand hype and how they "look" to people entering the mid-level market being their first rod of the type and being blown away. The only two things the Savvy has going for it are 1) Balance, and 2) Looks. If those are the most important things to you, then go ahead and buy one. But other than that, performance wise, the blank felt very dead and had a lack of crispness that I did not like. There are alot of other rods I would take before the Savvy, my preference being Powell (I have a nice big review on here), but the Crucial, Duckett, Avid, and even a BPS JM Sig II before the Savvy. Now the Champion, thats a whole different story...

Seaguar Braid
Not a bad braid, but i'll still take 832 over Kanzen. Kanzen is thin and strong, but a bit more rough than 832 IMO. I will say it SLICES through vegitation though. I wouldn't hesitate to use it in some of the nastiest cover. But for anything where I dont need that, I prefer the smoothness and feel of 832. Im also very excited to try out BPS new 8 strand braid.

What Are Some Improvements You Would Like To See On Your Favorite Bc's And Rods
A custom reel option, sorta like Z-Bone but with reels. You pick the color, frame, spool, bearing quality, handle/knobs, etc

Daiwa Spool Interchangeability?
I believe TDZ and Fuego spools are interchangeable, (Same base model), but I dont think the Zillions will work because they are slightly different but similar. I know you might be able to find more info on it in the forums as TT

Academy Ethos Microguide Baitcast Rods
LOL Windows 7 on my laptop, and I have a Android phone, I dont own any apple products yet, so I wont be able to see them unless I DL a codec but i'm pretty lazy. And I might have to order one, considering there are no Academys in my state.

Kids And Movies.......
I remember when i was little I would always have the movie Days Of Thunder on, I was obsessed with NASCAR at the time. I would literally just fastforward to the parts where there were cars. Now a days I watch it and i'm like "Holy crap, there is a story to this movie?" lol

Follow Up Email/letter Job Appl.
Thank you very much for all of the advice guys, in a few days i'll probably make the trip down their to try and speak to the manager of the fishing dept. Since i've already applied online, I want to make sure it probably gets there, and then I was thinking since they already have my application, I could hand them my resume and cover letter, (I sent my resume when I applied, but no area for cover letter), that way they have something in hand with all my contact info already on there.

Follow Up Email/letter Job Appl.
So I recently applied to Gander Mountain for a position in the Fishing Dept., and was wondering the appropriate time to send a follow up email, or a letter to them. I think it would help to show that i'm seriously interested in the job and let them know that I am very knowledgeable in fishing. I was thinking a letter would be better, but i'm not sure if it would get to the right person there, I couldn't find any info on their website about it, likewise with emailing the particular store, and I think it would just go to customer service and I dont think that is what I want. If you guys could help me out a little bit that would be great because I really want to work in something I love, that isn't pizza haha. Plus the emp. disc cant hurt

Depends on the type of jigging for me. Generally though, F for little cover, XF for heavy cover.

Advice On Bps Extreme Low Profile Bc Reel
Actually, its Dual Braking, but only the magnetic brakes are adjustable. There are 4 centrifugal brakes on all the time, cant turn them off without some surgery. But yep, it is in fact on of the better reels BPS offers, and I actually really like the profile of the reel. I'm already regretting letting go of the prolite I had.

Suffix Invisiline Fluorocarbon?
nothing really jumped out for strengths, or weaknesses, just regualr old flouro IMO, sort of a jack of all trades line. Did nothing poorly but did not excel at anything.
-
Crankbait Line
Flourocarbon, it sinks, plus it still stretches like mono, the "no stretch" advertising thing is just total BS. It's more sensitive because it's more dense.

Gopro Uploading Help
I would just suggest downloading a different free movie maker, because trying to find a free converter is pretty hard. I've tried that before and they all say free until you actually download and install, then they want you to pay.

Bps & $100 Million Shopping Center In Richmond
Thanks for the heads up, that exit is a little hairy, but since they may or may not construct on it, i'll just play it safe and take the construction free exit #86

Huh? Last time I checked mp4 works. If it really doesn't just save the file as a wmv or something else

Suffix Invisiline Fluorocarbon?
Bought a spool of it, good stuff, but nothing that jumps out at you to make you buy another spool, unless you just like to keep brand loyal. I'll still take InvizX or AbrazX over it anyday.
