Now yer' talkin! Hootie

You think we have way too much fun on here? Hootie

Oops...NRX. I would never have bought a Carrot Stix rod. I don't like orange. When I'm fishing, I want to look good. Image is everything ya know....lol. Hootie

They must have made one good one, and apparently I bought it....oh well,...ain't I the "lucky" one. Hootie

That's exactly what I would expect a pgersumky to say...lol. Hootie

It's definitely not what it used to be. Some of the older magazines I have are three times as thick as the ones you get now. Ray Scott handled it way better than ESPN ever could. Hootie

Old days. Hootie

And there is the real answer. Hootie

I drink whatever I want. I ain't a skeard of nuttin. Hootie

Thanks Darren. You say strong, my wife says stupid...lol. Hootie

Yanked on a snagged plastic worm today. It came flying back at me. Buried a 4/0 hook in my left arm. Past the barb. I looked at it for a few seconds, grabbed hold, gritted my teeth and jerked it out. Cleaned it up and got back to fishing. Hootie

I remember when anything "Made in Japan" was considered junk. So, maybe someday, who knows. Hootie

I just love looking over my old magazines and massive library, and antique baitcasting reel collection. Reminiscing about the old days. Makes me feel young again. Hootie

I know what you mean. I ate a burnt orange once and I puked. Hootie

I also prefer what I call full sized reels. I have 2 Curado 50e's, and 1 Chronarch 50e which seldom get used. I use my Chronarch 200e6's and my Core 100mg7's all the time. I have looked at the Core 50mg, but never considered buying one. Hootie

That close,I think I would get a Shimano crucial. But they run $159.00 Hootie

Yes, the lake I fish has flooded a few times this year already. It's also part of the Hamilton County park district, like the Campbell chain. Hootie

$@&

Lol...Tom, I've done that three times so far this year. I was maybe two thirds finished and it starts raining. Told myself, I'm not stopping now. Gonna "git er'done." Hootie

1:00 am music? I get that a lot. Any more questions? How about this. You be you and I'll be me. How does that work for ya? Hootie

Did the same thing Mike. Can't sleep past 4:00 am. At my age, if I don't shave, it looks like I have cornmeal on my face. Don't even own a tie. Boredom set in, so I started cutting my own grass. Oh well, so much for my retirement plans.....lol. Hootie

Push mower here also. It has done some groaning this year. Hootie

Enough already enough!...lol! Hootie

I know it's Saturday. It's your day off, but starting at 9:00 am. I am going to start cutting my grass. With a predicted heat index of 104 degrees,I can't wait till mid afternoon. Why today? Got to get it cut between raindrops. Seems like it's always raining here. Every time I have cut my grass this year, it's been wet. So, "WAKE UP EVERYONE." Hootie
