  1. Burn down? Where do you think you live, Oakland?
  2. This is what I use, all the other rods just sit back most of time. I'll sound crazy but I even throw light jigs with it too. Though the premier isn't the most sensitive in the price range it takes every beating I give it, notices all the subtle strikes, and serves me well
  3. Your rank is your pay grade, depending on the loan amount, how much your grade (pay) plays a factor on how much you can take out. This isn't the pre-Bush era where you can make 10K a year and pull a 300K mortgage loan anymore
  4. Make some plans to go out and eat, instead go fishing as a surprise
  5. I recently downgraded from a full fishing backpack to one of those real cheap satchels you see in every fishing department. Well I want something a bit bigger, more girth so I can double the tackle in it but I don't want a big tackle bag. I went to walmart the other day and saw a small flambeau kwikdraw that looked like the right size, but I'd rather get something with a full flap since the kwikdraw looks like it has a underwear strap. What options are out there for me? I don't want a true tackle bag because the box shape is awkward, and I can deal with a hip pack
  6. I stil use stren and triline 'cheapos' from time to time, not much wrong compared to the other monos
  7. The depth is usually written on the box, the actual depth can vary depending on line size, speed, and distance thrown but it's typically in the range listed on the box
  8. Internet is public, though not a public domain. Anyone with a net capable device and wifi can freely acess it, not to mention libraries/schools
  9. Seriously, your wife is right about the 2nd floor, swallow the 'man' pride of buying yourself and think of the family's safety first. You truly can't go wrong considering if her dad buys it outright and you got to pay and she decides to leave at least she will have somewhere to live supported by her father
  10. Yeah that's the whole point, something cheap to learn off of, yet not too small where I can't experiment with options or upgrading. trolling motors, currents, room, casting blah blah
  11. They friendly? Bags of wind? See them much? My locals are spread thin, very cool guys and willing to help, everything I expect out of a WCO, there's always time in the day for me to go over and chat about what's going on in the area about fish
  12. verbal is as far as it goes, sometimes an idiot has to be told he's an idiot
  13. I've been tempted to bring out the musky rod , 6oz should be big enough to think twice
  14. Welcome aboard!
  15. Something used around 14-16', are their brands/models to avoid or recommend? Would be used in rivers and small non-powered lakes, Im guessing a semi v would be choice There an average weight limit for styles and lengths? motor/trolling motor/battery/carpet/fishing gear etc plus two people going to be overkill? More questions to come when I think of them
  16. It's not your actions in the wrong though.
  17. Way to go! Print and frame it!
  18. So we shore fish, no way around it for now, the biggest problem is boaters coming over after they see us bring in a bass. ticks me off to no end, especially when my wife is the one catching the fish. I never see a boat guy motor over to another boat and cast by them if they catch something. Yeah I know I don't own the lake, but common courtesy should be there for these types of guys too, some more respect for women as well Maybe they need to learn how to fish from my wife since she catches em and they don't
  19. Before replacing the heaters, make sure they dry out throughly, good chance they might still work
  20. What's making you think about a Soul? I hope it's not those fake advertisements about getting 5k more for your trade cause they hide that back in the price. As for new compact cars, look around at the small cars like civic/focus/corolla etc and you'll see they get the same mileage and have more room. If you're thinking about going off the unbeaten path in trails the biggest concern is debris since those types of roads aren't maintained, it would be awkward to back out of a long dirt road just because a 6" tree blocked the path On a side note, the biggest thing over looked in buying a new car is money. Auto industry presses the fact that MPG is key, BUT keeping a paid off 15mpg car is still cheaper than a new car with payments and 20mpg
  21. With this storm in my area you'd be lucky to find a road not closed next to the creeks/streams/river to even get to fish
  22. What you never seen him play? d**n if any little thing doesn't go his way he moaps/whines/cries about it on the field, check him out on the sideline after they don't make a goal. He's known for tossing playbooks. He always crys for a penalty if someone is 'near' him
  23. I been trying to get my wife to buy some avid pearls, but she never wanted to try one in the store. Well that changed since she used my avid (which she claims now ) For now we picked up an ultralight quantum pink combo but the reel was junking out on her so we got the lady trion reel, would be nice if it was build up to standard trion specs. I think we'll end up picking a M and MH pearl up later, maybe get some curados custom painted to match
