  1. Where i live now a jet boat would allow me to go many more places that a glass boat couldn't go....especially when heading up to the susky of course i don't see myself leaving the kayaking realm any time soon.
  2. Statistically speaking he doesn't.....but we won't get into that mess. Brady has a 77.4% and Manning has a 69.4% so yes it is better but no it isn't dominant.
  3. most effective may also have to do with the most used and length of time it has been around. I would probably argue that the stick worm of the various types has surpassed the standard "rubber worm" in quality and numbers of bass. people that target big bass do exactly what was mentioned earlier. They find the forage and mimic that as best they can. Many of my larger bass have been caught on stick baits, jigs and jitterbugs at night. It is all about begin at the right place at the right time with the right bait presented in the right way.....much easier said than done
  4. Head to head is different than regular season performance in general as was the original question you posted.
  5. good article. Regular season it really is a flip of the coin between the two. Postseason it is hard to argue against Brady.
  6. Yeah the whole resale thing is tough to say really. I looked for reports and without going and compiling it myself i didn't find anything. resale should be more looked at percentage of MSRP that it is worth 5 years down the road not what the value of the boat is. I personally don't buy anything based on resale value. If i am anticipating selling it then i should get something else in the first place. I look for value for what I am getting and while I do not own a Nitro or any bass boat other than my kayak a Nitro would be high up on my list should i ever decide a glass boat will be in my future. I have a feeling a river Jet boat would be bought before a glass boat though
  7. that is a tough one but i would say Brady simply because I cannot remember to many bad seasons from the patriots. Their division has been extremely weak for many many years which translates to some easier wins. Also manning came in to a horrible team and had a few rough seasons while the team was being built while brady came in to a team that was already a playoff team.
  8. I stick with St Croix mostly with 3 spinning (Rage and mojo) and my three casting rods are st croix and i also have a kistler crank bait rod. I like St Croix but when it is time to change or more realistically when i want to change i am going to give either shimano or kistlers a try. As far as fly rods go I am pretty loyal to Sage but do have one st croix that is awaiting being sent back for warranty repair. I have owned many different brands though, reddington, cortland, TFO, Gloomis etc....but it seems the majority of the time the Sage fits my casting stroke the best so it makes it easy to buy sight unseen as there aren't any places around here that have a decent selection of rods.
  9. Mostly local stores as i am not one to buy things online for fishing unless i know exactly what i am wanting and the price is to good to be true. I have also found that the majority of the time my local shoo if they order something they will match or at least get close enough for me to order from them instead of a big box guy.
  10. I agree on this one even though i cannot stand the patriots. Although if it wasn't for a fluke play the game would have probably ended up in a tie the way things were going.
  11. The only problem i have with Nitro is that i don't have one in my driveway.... And yes, more will be available because there are more sold. I am totally guessing here but i would bet they top the list of most boats sold year after year and since they are labeled as a "beginner" boat people are going to want to upgrade which makes more available.
  12. how much of a difference in price is it really if the first thing you have to do is swap out all the split rings and hooks, not to mention the time it takes....
  13. Isn't that the one that they only allow a certain amount of boats per day and you can only go out on the boats they rent? I think my inlaws have a timeshare at the westgate resorts on that lake but the two times i have been there, i haven't fished.
  14. Congrats man!!
  15. you sure it wasn't a cornish game hen lol I will have to pick up one of the turkeys on sale this weekend that they are trying to get rid of.
  16. I would give him credit if he came out right away and manned up about it or didn't ben try to trash the guy initially. A-roid is even worse.....he had the balls to not only deny it every time but then go on a tour talking to kids about not taking PEDs. I hope he never plays baseball again and is never even on the ballot for the hall of fame since his entire career is a fraud
  17. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/ryan-braun-says-he-s-made-amends-with-dino-laurenzi-jr---and-if-so-he-would-be-wise-to-emulate-laurenzi-213618095.html still a sleezeball and he only did it because he got busted again.
  18. Brining a turkey is key. Haven't smoked one yet but now i just might have to. How long did it take and how big of a bird?
  19. Live bait rod for big cats or stripers maybe.
  20. It cost you $350 for them to diagnose the problem? Wow...that seems like a lot. Also if it is throwing codes most autozones or other car parts places will run the codes for you for free.
  21. As much as i like to cook i never cook for thanksgiving.......I did make a lasagna pan last night though.
  22. Austin Kayak has free shipping and usually has good prices. http://www.austinkayak.com I will caution against just getting a boat that is on sale unless it is the boat you want and happens to be on sale. Generally sales on boats aren't huge and if it is a boat you don't end up liking you will be selling and getting another anyways. also keep in mind budget for a PFD and a paddle
  23. This is like the shimano/daiwa/Lews threads..... Anyways i intentionally try to not distort the size of the fish and never hold a fish way out to the camera. Of course most times i am by myself so my pics are usually on the release or on my plano bump board.
  24. i have never seen man and muff used in that type of combination.....
