I like Teva river shoes. Good grip and can get wet.

If it makes you feel any better I made the same mistake. I was very happy until reality set in. Lol cool little fighters though.

I will definitely take you up on that. Thank you.

Yep lots of toothy fish. Get a metal leader or you may be busy resetting tackle. Lol don't ask me how I know that.

Or other thing is if the boat came from a pro its no longer a new boat worth 60k. It has depreciated over the year the pro had it so you would be taxed at the fair market value of the boat. Besides you could alway sell the boat cover the taxes then buy a modest boat free and clear. How much is a beat up pro boat selling for ? . Even if its a brand new boat nothing says you can't sell it for enough to buy a modest boat and still pay off the taxes. I do like the guiding idea, and I do not believe that you would have to do it full time to take the deductions. As always, consult a tax professsional.

We are not certain, maybe Frisco or Lewisville area. We are not sure yet.

Hello all, Just saying hello to all the DFW anglers out there. We are moving to DFW at the end of the month, and was wondering which of the local lakes are good for bass especially from shore. We are leaving S. Florida so I am hoping to have as much luck the DFW as I had in Florida. -Michael

I have caught a small barracuda using a fluke and megastrike.

On the water 320+ days probably. Knowing how to adapt to changing conditions, and probably most important researching bass and the waters they are going to fish. I mean if I was going for the big bucks they get, I'd be hiring some guides for the lakes

Has she mentioned that she wants to go fishing? Shown any interest? If not get her a Pandora bracelet with a couple charms representing the kids. Then go to town for Father's Day

That's awesome!!!

Never hurts to try

I usuall trim off the torn part and rebook. It goes from a 5" senko to a 4.5" senkos and eventually a 4"

Not sure if the Tuf-Line offer is still available but I'd go that route if it is. 5 buck 100 yards and the backlashes are really manageable. Also the trick to getting them out is when it happens release the spool. Then place your thumb on the spool lightly and start pulling line out (this keeps the spool from spinning as you pull out line). When the line gets stuck as you pull, apply more pressure to the spool the. Turn the handle 1/2 rotation. Release the spool pulling line out until the next spot it gets stuck and repeat the handle turning truck or you get back to the nicely spooled section of the line. Backlash release was the item that freaked me out the most until I saw that trick on YouTube.
