buzzed bait

You all have a problem.... Lol. Glad I could contribute/enable

Just saw on Dick's Sporting Goods site they have some 2500 Stradic FJs going for $99! I don't need one myself, but if you're in the market....

i can't compare them to the zillion, but the tatula is far from a dead stick. i have had a few and they're great rods, very light and very well balanced. my 6'10"MHF is my most versatile rod i own. I too would pocket that $80 and snag the tatula. look around online for a bit and you may find a really good deal.

good stuff. i wonder though why they only chose those 12 states (CO, FL, GA, ME, MI, MN, MS, MT, NH, NY, UT, and WI). Just looking at that list, they mostly look like high volume for tourist fisheries which i would assume might tilt the data a bit.... Fly fishing in CO, MT and UT. Smallmouth in MI, MC, NH, NY and WI. Largemouth in GA and FL. And well everything in Florida....

Mike, i sent you my relatively short bit of feedback in an email. let me know if you didn't get it.

try to right click on the photo and click on edit. should bring it up in paint. there you can opt to rotate it 90 degrees and then save again. should take care of the problem, usually does if i run into this issue.

Good call, but the trouble of finding an associate and then actually getting them to help..... likely not worth it!

checked 2 on my way home because i needed to snag some stuff for an office party today anyways.... SUPER disappointed. Actually found some decent items on the clearance rack marked $1. of course when i take them to the price scanner, they're ringing up much higher than $1

those all look great!

Bill??? you cray

i know you'll likely scoff at my choice here, but i don't venture out man, just stick with what i like. crown, sprite, lime.

couldn't agree more with k mac. thoughts are with dwight and family.

i went from the $5 or $10 specials to a solid pair of glass lens Costas.... super hard to cough up the money when i did it, but i have ZERO regrets about it. i'm no guru on glasses, but i noticed a huge difference myself. and i tried both the plastic and glass lenses and the glass were a slight improvement IMO

cool ranch doritos or salt and vinegar for me

i love my 6'10" MHF it's a very versatile stick

solid walmart you got there!!

Had to get some house work done this weekend, but found an opportunity to get out for a few hours Sunday evening and I'm glad I did! Drove a little further than usual to a lake that is supposed to have some above average sizes and "relatively low fishing pressure". Launched around 1:30 or so and around 2:30 found my first bite of the day and it was a GOOD ONE. OF COURSE the big fish of the day came on the Siebert Outdoors jig, dredge brush w/owner hook black/green color with a rage craw trailer. actually had already made the pitch to cover and was swimming it back when it SLAMMED my jig! 5lb1oz on the scales and a beauty of a fish! missed a couple more bites after that, one on a spinnerbait and one on a worm. But then, about 30 or 40 minutes before dark it really started up. all the critters were moving and the water started to show some life. I managed to bag 4 on the Terminator T1 spinnerbait right before dark. they were 2 at 3# and 2 at 1-1.5#. each one of them absolutely choked the bait too. really nice way to spend the evening after doing some solid house work! Few pics of the big girl and one of the 3's:

Want a new casting rod and reel Also want to get a fly rod combo and try my hand at fly fishing

i think you were meaning Dominican Republic, but i'd strongly disagree with you. just got back from there last wednesday and it's not quite a dump. just like everywhere, there's good and bad and even really bad, but far from a dump.

i have 8 and 12lb invizx and love it. also have some 15lb red label i use for leader material. have yet to try abrazx and though i want to, my wallet says i'm never trying tatsu....

that's awesome!

one of those lures where i'm told "you can't do it wrong" but i swear i can never do it right....

have you ever heard of california? evidently everything there causes cancer and as such, companies have to put ridiculous labels on them. i would feel that having gone through customs to get here they wouldn't blatantly put toxic materials in there (other than lead as mentioned). wouldn't concern me in the least bit.
