  1. Happy Birthday!
  2. Work will be there when you get back. That nice bass, maybe not.
  3. The last one happened about 3 years ago. Had a nice one hit a spinnerbait and take off into the deep water. Fought it for about 10 seconds and my line went limp. I reeled in the line and all I had tied on was the arm of the spinnerbait.
  4. I usually bring a bc for jigs, a spinning reel for weightless plastics, and a bc for spinnerbaits. I tried carrying a backpack but it can get banged around, and sometimes it got wet. Now I carry a two shelf box.
  5. Black jitterbug 5/8 size, chrome and black back pop-r, white buzzbait, and hollow body frogs are about all I ever use anymore.
  6. Try holding your rod tip up high over your head, maybe try a longer rod.
  7. Good job. I got in the habit of leaving the house through the garage, so I quit bringing the house key with me when I went somewhere. I got home from fishing and the opener wouldn't work. I had to wait about an hour for my wife to come home so she could let me in.
  8. Yep. I've reeled in a 6" senko with a 4" bass hanging onto the tail of it.
  9. Lately, I have been using a Zoom fat albert.
  10. You're going to have to add weight. I like to fish inlines like a jerkbait. I take up some of the slack and give the rod a quick snap to move the bait.
  11. If I took a pic every time I caught a dink I wouldn't have any room left on my hard drive.
  12. Those are some good size bluegills!
  13. When my soft plastics get too beat up for t-rigs I use them for trailers. Super hog, speed craw, and super chunks are my favorite, but I like to put on a senko, or a plastic worm too.
  14. Had that happen a few years back while fishing a small jig. The only thing keeping the hook in the fish's mouth was the pressure from reeling it in. The bass just swam away when I stopped reeling and went to pick it up by the lip. It's a bummer, but at least you know where it lives now.
  15. You caught some nice bass!
  16. R.I.P. Prince.
  17. My two best colors are white and chrome.
  18. Supernatural Vikings Big Bang Theory Gotham My wife's really been into Dr. Foster A Woman Scorned.
  19. Welcome aboard. I usually Google "fishing lakes around" and then type in the name of the area I am looking for.
  20. I can take a picture, but I won't be able to get it small enough to post it.
  21. Nice going, and thanks for the pics!
  22. If this goes through I can see my TW purchases increasing.
