Treble Hooks on XR50 and XR75 lip less cranks
yep. stock hooks are GTG on these baits. They'll hang onto fish and I can also confirm they will hang on to the palm of your hand pretty well too. >

Pete Carroll to Seahawks???
True. Plus the basketball program is already under the microscope from the OJ Mayo drama...that certainly isn't going to help anything.

Tested out the new gun...sad state of affairs
If that doesn't work, try holding the gun sideways..works in the movies. ;D Agreed with Micro-if your state allows concealed, not a bad idea to get it. Plus, if a certain someone gets re-elected to a certain office in a couple years, hopefully you will be grandfathered in if it goes away. :-X

Pete Carroll to Seahawks???
I think the NCAA is about to put the beat down on that program. McNight didn't play in the bowl game. I think there is a lot more details to come out from that story. Can't blame the guy, get out while the gettin' is good.

Mayweather-Pacquiao
Agreed. I think Mayweather knows he would get KNFO but I am still surprised he is passing up this payday. Floyd "Money" Mayweather loves his money. You gotta think the loser of this fight would be guaranteed north of $20 mil....

New World Record Bass Decision To Be Announced
no offense, but this is easily one of the dumbest posts I have seen on this board.

Anyone who wants to bash BSU schedule
They landed in the bowl game that they deserved to be in. With that being said, it is still a flawed system. With them winning their bowl game and returning a lot of starters (21, I think) they should be ranked somewhere in the top 5 at the beginning of next season. If they can win out again next year, they may land in the champ game by default.

Ax-Men Season 3
this show is a prime example of the fact that they will put anything on TV......

Reel Mechanic Service
Yep, Reel Mech is good to go. And this post reminds me I need to get a box of reels in the mail to him.

G Loomis IMX
I agree with what others have already said-the Avid is a great rod for the $. With that being said, I would take a look at the Shimano Crucial as well. I have been very pleased with mine so far. Are they in the same league as the IMX? No, but they are a lot of rod for the $.

What are your fishing Weaknesses?
Losing crankbaits and falling off the boat are the first two that come to mind. > More importantly-being impatient. I have to constantly remind myself that I am out on the water for fun and that there may be those days where you only put a few (or none) in the boat.

most influential bait of the decade
Senko.....knock offs. ;D

Shimano Calais or Daiwa Zillion
Zillion...and it isn't even close. I was less than impressed with the Calais.

Protein Shake For Someone Who is Lactose Intolerant
I'm lactose intolerant as well. I either use the egg white cartons or beef protein isolate.

Ruger: What the heck are they counting down?
Recall. The chances of something cool coming from Ruger are pretty slim.

Alabama/Texas It's Time To Start This Thread
I've got my money on TX to cover the spread.

Mike Leach fired
Good move by Tech. They are taking out the trash. Maybe him and Mangino can hang out at buffets together.

Looks Like The Aints Are Back!
Two losses in a row at home to crappy teams. Not good. I doubt The Saints get out of their first round of playoffs.
-
What would you guys do?
wow. As others have mentioned, make use of spell check/grammer check. You should come out smelling like roses. People win court cases all the time simply because they are 'mad at them'.

G loomis Best All around rod
MBR783C IMX. Most versatile rod I have ever owned. If you feel the need, jump up to the GLX, however, I don't think the increased performance offsets the increased price. Even though the IMX's are pricey, I consider them a great value.

berkley professional grade flourocarbon
I used it last year. I tried that and BPS brand at the same time. I liked the BPS a bit better, seemed less brittle. Also, the BPS house brand can be found on sale from time to time.

Glock woes, and a new SIG
I had the same issue with my Glock 17. It would jam with cheap ammo but never had a problem with premium ammo. Anyway, that was enough for me to lose confidence in it. Not taking the chance of a jam if I ever get in a position that it 'has' to shoot. Nice new rig, Micro.

Thief
Wow. The sooner this clown is in jail, the better.

Does anyone shoot AR-15s
Micro, I don't own any AR's but have shot about 5,000 rounds through my buddy's AR's. He has 2. One is the DPMS Panther Bull 20. We have shot about any ammo imagineable ranging from military surplus to match grade and have never had a jam. The other he put together himself buying the upper and lower separate from Larue Tactical. I think it has an 18 in barrel but I can't say for sure. This gun is super accurate. 5 shot 1 inch groups at 100 yards are possible with this gun from a bench on bags, and let me tell ya, it could do a lot better with a better shooter behind the trigger. The Larue, however, has jammed a couple times. FD
