  1. I like cabin creek tubes
  2. Well at least Sumlin fired him.
  3. Me senior year I did not play baseball because I found the loves of my life,golf beer and women in that order. I never regretted not playing. The difference is that I didn't start the season. Follow your heart. I would actually talk to your teammates and coach. They are the ones that are going to be affected by your decision. For those that say you have your whole life to fish don't listen to them. You never know what day is going to be your last. Live life to the fullest everyday. Treat people right and always go to bed with a clear conscience. If you can sleep well with your decision then do what makes you happy.
  4. If I had nothing to do back in the day I would just grab some beer from the fridge and see how long I could keep them on the phone so they were not bugging other people. I always made them hang up on. Hell I would just start talking about my problems at school with the wife. Some were actually cool with and they hated their job so we would just shoot the **** for hours.
  5. Same as a marriage. Depends on how well it is lubed. How often it is used and Who is using it. And whether you try to trade it up for a newer sleeker model. However if maintained properly. If you give it the right amount of attention, doubt push it too the max too often it will be there when you die. But who wants that traded in my last model last year. Next year when I get everything paid off. I might be able to buy a boat again.
  6. Good to here and Merry Christmas
  7. Depends on how much I have been drinking
  8. Blaze minnow floating jerkbait Picked them up for a buck a piece Smallmouth kill them Went back and bought 30 of them
  9. My brother and I fly fish a ton. My dad never did. We taught him how to do it and his first time out he caught a 20 inch gold trout. It was his one and only trout. Little did we know that cancer would take him from us only six weeks later. Luckily my brother was smart enough to snap a picture of it. That picture hangs at both our homes and at the cabin we still fish at. I tear up and smile every time I see it. I have thousands of memories fishing but none will top that. Even though he never fished he always drove us boys anywhere we wanted to fish. He gave us a gift that we will pass on to our children. it is a shame that we never got the time to truly thank him for one of the greatest gifts of all time.
  10. About 25 years ago I had a situation. I was fishing this creek when I was about 8 years old. I was catching bluegill after bluegill. I go to bait up and the next thing I know this big ole bully is in my spot. So I ever so calmly wind up my zebco rod and with a mighty swing that would have made Ruth proud hit him in the back. The next thing I know we are both wet cover ed in welts and bleeding from all over. To this day that bully is still my best friend and fishing partner. When I got home my father was not pleased to say the least. For he had to explain to my mother why my older brother and I looked like we were in a bar room brawl. To this day I say I was in the right and he swears he was.
  11. I actually did this for my cousin. He had not been into bass fishing in ten years and wanted to get back into it. He asked me to make a list of baits and rods reels that I like. Well about a week later his wife calls and she decides to call me every name in the book. Seems my cousin decided to buy everything that I wrote down in triplicate. Turns out his bill was around 5k at cabelas. A guy that had not caught a bass in ten years was now loaded with lucky crafts and every other high dollar lure imaginable. Well he went fishing one weekend. Decided he liked fly fishing better. Now his ten year old son has the nicest arcenal to fish his half acre farm pond.
  12. I clicked on this to post the exact picture you posted. By far my favorite.
  13. You should have thrown that one back That lure leads to an expensive addiction
  14. I target smallmouth so I would have to say a clear tiny torpedo.
  15. Pvc pipe roughed up with sandpaper. Make your own trees. I use five gallon buckets with cement in them.
  16. With today's instant gratification society sadly the days of Woodward and Bernstein are by the wayside. It is all shock and awe headlines now without facts to the back them up.
  17. Don't ever use them on Lake Erie in the spring. The four and five pounders that you can catch all day make it hard to find that seven or eight pounder by Power fishing.
  18. mrmacwvu1 replied to roadwarrior's topic in Everything Else
    2.75 here
  19. Just a guess but if you are praying and reading with your son he will turn out alright.
  20. That right there is why I never want another house on a slab. If you have any questions about tiling let me know. I have installed hundreds of bathrooms and would be more than happy to help.
  21. Ok I will give LSU credit in the last 12 years they have played one OOC opponent on the road. My mountaineers.
  22. I agree they need to go to at least 8 teams
  23. As does the other conferences they do not just get the love fest of the SEC For example the iron bowl. 100 points scored. What did we hear from the media. What a great offensive showdown. If that happens in the big 12 or pac 10 it is what crappy defenses they have. However the coaches know better as auburn fired their dc after allowing 30 points for six games straight. Don't get me wrong the sec west is the best of the best but for the love of God play an oc game outside of the south against a real program at least once every 20 years.
  24. There is no way I could do that. I am like a child looking at his baseball cards. I get bored and reorganize my stuff just so I have an excuse to look at it. I already have too many things that never see the water because they are pretty. I did do that with my tools though and next thing you know I had a beer fridge a radio a woodshop and an ex wife. Kept the woodshop best upgrade ever.
  25. I hope Mizzou wins and no sec teams make the playoffs
