  1. I dont worm fish much but when I do its rage rigged anaconda slowly dragged or hopped just off the bottom
  2. I remembered a second bad injury I had when I was about 12 and my dad showed me the ole fishing line around the hook and yank trick after having to cut a pair of hip waders up. I was like 12ish salmon fishing and me in all of my wisdom at that age put my lures in a zip lock bag. Well all would be fine and dandy if the said lures weren't spoons with trebles. My dad met me behind the tressel and I was on the opposite side as him so I crossed creek when one of the spoons popped threw the bag then one point into my leg the other threw the wader why i had the bag stuffed in my waders idk I'm not the brightest crayon in the box lol. I hobbled over to my dad where he was laughing at me and cut the one out with his pocket knife the other he had me cut some line and did the little trick around the hook bend and yanked that one out. Man did that hurt and boy was I a dumb ass lol but I don't think iv learned my lesson I'm still known to put lures in pockets with exposed hooks I should start doing the eye glass container trick.
  3. Last year I had a crank bait dig 2 trebles into my forehead and temple performed surgery right there in the canoe and kept on fishing.
  4. I don't remember what my one lake was like before the mussels but its gin clear unless we just got a big rain. The weed lines are crazy it seems to be thicker and thicker every year. I caught my PB largemouth out of there and alot of good sized smallmouth as well its a frogging heaven in that lake some spots though have lilly pads and thick "grass" all the way to the bottom in 30 FOW iv just bumped up my worm weights or frog over the top and hold on tight aand crank hard once bit.
  5. the anti virus soft ware I got off our resident IT guy to help clean up my computer we work different shifts now so I don't see him anymore to bug him how to fix it.
  6. x2 look at all them small mouth Dwight catches in erie and erie is LOADED with zebra mussells and gobys 2 invasive species that are said to ruin fishing but yet erie is probably one of the best spots in the world for smallmouth and gets better with each passing year from the reports iv been seeing and hearing as I live 45minutes from erie
  7. there crazy loud and annoying lol we have a bunch in my home town that have escaped and are now "wild" the guy that raises/breeds them lives across from on of my good friends growing up we can hear them when out at his pond fishing. His neighbor is the only one in town with them but they have been spotted regularly on the other side of town heading out of the county a good 20miles from the guys house there all over we see them when out hunting and fishing its pretty crazy.
  8. I connect threw a wireless router as does everyone else. We have 3 options for internet PacNet which I use is the cheapest they advertise 10mbs? if that sounds right idk but thats the cheapest and offered threw the army and theres a router in the barracks that we all connect to those of us on pacnet. Then theres Viva and Zain which is like sprint or at&t in the states but the start up is crazy expensive 280-350 usd depending on the plan you want. the guys with the viva and zain theres is fast and it can go anywhere but start up is expensive and monthly bill is 55-80usd for zain and 85-130usd viva my pacnet is 40 a month and had no start up cost. other guys with pacnet don't have the problems I have I tried the speed test thing it wont even pull it up its so slow. luckily the forums are like the only thing that loads unless theres pics directly attached instead of thumbnails to click. How would I go about getting rid of Vista for anti virus and clean up I run a program called advanced systemcare 5and some other one called malware by anti malbytes or something like that. I dont have any programs running either in my little task bar thingy I always empty my bin soon as I delete something and run the malware and clean up programs every weekend its set to run every Saturday at 2am memory idk how to check exactly but when i click the little computer tab it pulls up OS(c:) drive and that's 121GB of 283GB free then it has one labeled recovery (d:) and that ones 13.9GB of 14.9GB free
  9. so I need some help maybe its simple maybe I'm computer dumb well that's not a maybe I def am but here is my question. My internet is painfully slow like to watch youtube videos well I almost cant it takes anywhere from 30min-12hours to stream a 12min video. I'm in Kuwait on there internet carriers but other guys with the same plan can watch videos down load stuff no problem me on the other hand clicked a video on how to pour plastics this morning before my shift I was gone 9 hours it only made it to 47%. So I thought maybe the little bar wasn't keeping up but nope I pressed play and 3 minutes into the video it stopped and started buffering so I went to the gym came back after an hour pressed play I made it another 20 seconds into the video. Is it my computer is it just a POS or could it be my connection. Everyone else loads fast some people have the same problem as me though but just a few of the guys. I run a defrag every week and virus and malware scan thingy every week to keep that stuff from slowing it down but videos and pics take a eternity it seems like pics of your guys catches and stuff on here if I click the thumbnail it takes like 10 minutes and its still usually not done I see half a pic usually. But Idk if its my computer is just out of date I mean it is kinda old like 5 years maybe more idk its used but it seems like the oldest files and stuff are 07. I use google chrome as a browser and windows xp but its a dual boot I can use vista but i never have its just there should i maybe get rid of vista? I'm lost its frustrating because i cant even down load pics of my kids my wife sends me in emails there like 750kb or what ever but it takes an hour.
  10. I will turn down hunting before I turn down fishing. Luckily for me though in NY when hunting season opens fishing is usually pretty much done I don't bow hunt anymore so I don't get to the woods till late November. Any small game I do I do while fishing early on in the hunting season. After dinner the hounds get released and its all about the coyotes, fox, and coons which i enjoy more then deer but by the time im out chasing predators we have ice on the water and coyote ends March 25th usually so it ends just in time for ice out and the earliest smallmouth making there way into the tribs.
  11. http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/blog/34253/massive+mako+shark+stuns+anglers+as+it+leaps+repeatedly/ That's crazy pretty neat story better read then most the stuff in the news lately
  12. well TW has the menace and recon already!!!
  13. there the worst I had one jump up and grab a terminator spinner not even in the water but hanging off the edge of the canoe because I was going between the spinner and a jig I had the spinner hanging off the side on my one pole just set it down and picked up my jig pole and this pike roughly 35" grabbed it if I hadn't had my leg over my pole well moving around I would a lost the pole instead just lost the fish after getting soaked fighting it right next to the canoe with out playing it out. I get startled all the time especially when its slow and iv been throwing for what seems like eternity and then out of no where a huge splash explosion on the water startles me usually resulting in my yanking the lure usually a frog of sorts out of its mouth and sailing for my head at mach 3 lol.
  14. This take the time and money and invest in good line first and foremost this is what I had the hardest time teaching my nephew he would buy what ever was cheapest at Walmart so he could buy an expensive rapala instead. He would spend more time fixing his line tangles or breaks loosing his fancy lures to fish because his line was the weak link. Same for hooks his hooks always got rolled or dull cuz he would buy the south bend stuff. I got him onto the better stuff still shopping at walmart and his catch rate quadrupled because he had gear that could hold up to fishing and in the long run he has been able to get more baits instead of buying the same one every week because he kept breaking off.
  15. they have some info on it on there site no prices yet but its officially on the website now http://www.abugarcia.com/revoshop
  16. I'm a Revo guy so id go with the Winch but if you don't crank a lot id go with the PQ its a killer deal and if you end up cranking more and the PQ takes a dump your not out a ton of money and you know what your looking for in a cranking reel by then so you can upgrade reels at a later date if need be.
  17. I agree but I'm very pro gun i was gonna start leaving this thread alone but I cant help it. All gun control does it hurt law abiding citizens and give criminals weaker people to pray on. If you want a gun you will get a gun there is always a way there will never be 100% gun control because the bad guys will always have guns. More people are killed by drunk driving then guns so should we go back to the prohibition era. If you take away peoples rights to defend themselves i.e "gun control" you better protect them sense you just took there protection away. Police forces would have to double and there would have to be non corrupt cops because what good does it do if the cops are criminals too.
  18. big pimping right there your gonna get all the ladies with that thing lol throw some pin stripes or flames on it zip tie an ipod and external speakers and you got your self a system to boot.
  19. It is tough man I'm deployed right now iv been gone sense late January and as of right now I wont be home till after Christmas. this is the longest iv been away from my wife and boys my youngest Jack will be 1 next week and my oldest turned 3 back in may. Right now is the toughest its been so far the marriage is very rocky right now just from being gone and not being able to call home regularly because of my shifts here and the time difference. I spend a lot of time in the gym to make my free time go by quicker and it gets me tired so I can sleep and not be up missing my wife and sons. Keep your head up how far are you from them can they come see you or you go home on weekends or anything? I did that for a long time when i was on active duty state side for the guard they got me a hotel to sleep in but i still drove the 2 hrs home every night and again in the morning just so i could shower in my own home and sleep next to my wife even if it meant loosing 4hrs + of sleep each night and the gas money. Just keep a positive attitude and youl be fine.
  20. I don't think its entirely true either but still awesome just the same

  22. Nice! Lake Baccarac was my pick for a honey moon trip lol but my wife still knows its where i wanna go if we ever get the chance i seen a special on the lake years ago and just thought I must go there no mater what at some point in my life. Congrats on the many PB's
  23. How do the injectors work do you heat them some how or do you pour the hot plastic into the injector then quickly inject your mold? I'm probably just gonna pour most at first then if I get into craws or stuff with detail and small parts do injection so it fills out.
  24. I listend to everything growing up before paintball tournaments I always had disturbed blasting my mom hated it till I started driving my self but i played tournament ball for 4 years before i could drive so she had to hear it alot. I always listened to rock, alternative type music Metallica, the Offspring, Disturbed, papa roach(old original stuff not there new crap), old eve 6, penny wise, queens of the stone age, hate bread, chimera, lamb of god I still listen to the same type of music. Then I turned 16 and got into cars and imports and street racing and I sadly will admit I had a ton of techno mixes for when at car shows along with some rap and hip hop stuff that makes me cringe now. Then on the same token I also used to listen to old music my parents liked Ottis redding, the Beatles, Queensreich(sp), VH, the doors, Hendrix, Springsteen, Clapton.
  25. I used to sleep on the floor like that when i was younger and lived at home my mom and sister would claim the two couches so id grab a pillow and lay on the floor and that's where I woke in the morning usually by a kick to the stomach and my mom telling me to get up or ill be late for school. I slept like that up until I met my wife actually but it was usually because that's where I passed out from a vodka enduced coma.
