Just Had To Post...great Officer
I have zero issues with an officer checking me for the right credentials. I hear people complain about being checked and then also complain about the "bucket" brigade, just doesn't make sense to me. You can't have it both ways. I am glad to see that you had a good experience.

First Day Of Student Teaching On Monday...
Things are going even better now, just found out today from my coordinating teacher, that the principal is going to be talking to me about taking a long term sub position after my student teaching is over. Not sure on the grade yet but right now getting my foot in the door and a paycheck, since i haven't had one since mid January will be really nice.

First Day Of Student Teaching On Monday...
Another update....week 9 is now in the books with 3 more to go. I am still enjoying it and have been responsible for all subjects for about 2 weeks now. Next week is gonna be a fun one though with our "family life", i don't teach that luckily, and spring break the next week so keeping the kids on task is going to be a challenge to say the least. I am looking forward to it being done and getting my masters and my certification and hopefully, my own classroom next fall. It has been the fastest 9 weeks i have ever had at any "job".

Chatterbait Recommendations.
I have been using a Duckett micro magic 6'9" MH powered rod and it does the job nicely.

River Monsters
I like Zeb Hogan too. I like the scientific aspect of the whole show and how he really isn't even a fisherman but he does the research and it seems more experimental and analytical rather than entertainment. They are both good shows though.

Chatterbait Recommendations.
I used the original Z-man chatterbait in my first foray into the chatterbait world and have since tried the seibert outdoors version, since they are a sponsor here and could not be more pleased. Quality build and great colors. It will be the chatterbait of choice for me going forward.

When Color Matters!
interesting, that asking what color means a person is an idiot, haven't heard that one before. I always go by color doesn't really matter but when it matters it really matters It is all about confidence though. I am more comfortable throwing certain colors so that is what i throw. I do try different colors though just to see what happens and how they work as compared to the others i have. For me it is about having other confidence options should i run out or not be able to get a color i like.

River Monsters
A lot of times too he is not sure if there are monsters in there so why go huge at first. You have to see what is in there first then go after the monsters. I like the show personally and enjoy the various species that he catches. I am wanting to plan a trip just to get into those red tailed catfish because i think they are some of the coolest looking fish out there.

Fishing Big Lakes In A Canoe?
Big lakes and canoes are not the best idea, especially when using just a paddle. Kayaks, if you get the right one, are fine in big water. It does take some time to get your skill level up to handle the rougher water and you always have to keep your head on a swivel too because you always have to be prepared for a boat wake from out of nowhere.

Ebay Rant: Won The Auction But Did I Really Win Here?
His ethics are fine. Maybe he is a busy guy and would rather under promise and over deliver than over promise and under deliver. and if he doesn't have an eBay store it may be even harder to get an item out as it is not a regular occurrence. All in all, what are a few extra days anyways lol

Disgusted!
So you then would make a choice of what is right or wrong disregarding the rules of C & R at this pond by letting them take some fish.....that is no better than what they are doing in my mind. If it is against the law, it is against the law or rules in this case. If you let some slide you don't have the right to pick and choose what to follow.

Advice Please
you could always call Daiwa as well just to make sure

Advice Please
Warranties are generally via manufacturer. Some do have stipulations that they be bought from a certified dealer and require a receipt for any warranty work but i have not personally seen a company ask for a receipt. Most companies also allow for the product to be registered which gets it into their system under your name.

March Madness!
I have watched NC State quite a bit and by playing down to the level of competition is that they played soft and allowed NC State to dictate the game which should not have happened. Even with how poorly they played they still had it tied with what, less than a minute to play. I totally agree that NC state played better last night for sure. It was a bad matchup from a styles perspective too and i almost picked NC state to win in my bracket but i just couldn't do it lol guess i should have though

March Madness!
in typical philly sports fashion, they play down to the level of he competition and then can't get the job done. I still think Villanova is a good team but geez guys, get to the sweet sixteen already.

Best Largemouth Lake In Va
I like Briery as well but Sandy is better in my opinion, they are both near each other too so it is more than feasible to fish the morning at one, grab some lunch and then hit up the other. Sandy also allows night fishing which is pretty cool

Moving To Richmond Va, Museum District
I think Sam about hit all the spots but there are other lakes that are really good too. I learned many by just taking a look at DGIF website and giving them a try. One other great thing about the area, for those in human powered boats, is that many of the lakes within an hour or so radius are electric only or HP limited lakes. One of my favorites is Diascund reservoir which actually is drawn down right now for repairs so you can see a lot of structure that later in the year will be covered with water once they allow the lake to fill back up.

Fry In 49 Degree Water?
I know pickerel also spawn really early, like right after ice out in some places so maybe that is what you saw....who knows though lol

Anyone Excited Or Ready For Free Agency?
Even with all that, i still bet the eagles will double the redskins win total this season...and you are also neglecting that they have upgraded every position except WR. Bradford is better than Foles if he can stay healthy but the offensive line will help that out a ton, he has never played behind a good line in his career.

Anyone Excited Or Ready For Free Agency?
Chip likes to divert attention, i doubt they sign tebow. If they sign Tebow he has to be the 2nd stringer or labeled at another position because he cannot come in to a game for a play or two and then have the 1st or 2nd stringers return to the game.

Has The Spawn Started For You?

Anyone Excited Or Ready For Free Agency?
I like crabtree too and wouldn't mind him coming to philly. And trent cole, a cap casualty and long time eagles player now with the colts, has his own hunting show.
