"that Doesn't Count"
I also feel a little differently than most people on here. Ill start off with as long as you're happy with it thats all that matters, and i am in no way saying you didnt catch a great fish.I find it much more rewarding to catch a big fish in a river or lake, simply because they are harder to find IMO.

Poked With Very Dirty Fish Hook - Worry About Infection?
I wish i would of read the advice about the push ups. I had to get a tetanus shot yesterday after i dumped a bunch of gas on a brush pile and had it blow up in my face. Got taken to the er where they gave me the shot. Now aside from looking like two face for a while it feels like the hulk sucker punched me in the bicep.

Sports Loyalty....
I hate this new 2 wildcard system per league. The two teams have 1 game to play to decide who gets the wild card position. They at least need to do a series. 1 game is dumb and does not show who the superior team is. The Braves got screwed out of the wild card last year because of it, when they had more way more season wins than the cards did if i remember correctly.

Sports Loyalty....
People who switch teams i think are band wagoners or just really not that big a fan of the team. I was lucky that 2 teams i follow made it to the championships last year, but only 1 won. And like previously mentioned this new two team wildcard single game screwed my team out of making it in last year.

Size Police For Gf's 1St Lm Bass?
i second this but I would say closer to 3. I made one of these threads once and got numbers from 7lbs all the way down to 3lbs, so truth is no one can really tell. Ive found with women, its best to listen to what they say. Just ask her how much she thought it weighed and go with that.

Chinese Swimbaits
The main reason i want to throw a swim bait is to keep the dinks away. A couple ponds i fish are loaded with them.

Why The Heck Did They Not Bite? Full? Climate? Bait?
They also have stubby arms like a trex

Bass And Beavers????
Maybe someone can help me out. I fish a pond and i constantly see rodents swimming in it. All around the pond there are trees that are chewed around the base, and quite a bit of downed trees in the water. There is no dam or den that i see. And recently i was about 10 ft from one of these bad boys in a tree. Although i couldnt see the tail. What i see on the internet is that beavers dont climb trees and woodchucks dont chew on trees. Ive never heard a tail smack either. Anyone have any idea what im dealing with?

Best Pliers Under $100
$400 dollars for pliers ??????????????????????????????????????????????????? Is that a joke? I could pay someone to take the hook out for a complete season for less than that most likely.

Really Ncaa?!?!
That was a terrible call. The worst part of it was that the booth reviewed it and said it was a clean hit but they couldnt take away that penalty yards. We have the nfl to blame for this thanks to everyone trying to jump on the bus to sue them. These kids arent going to go full bore into someone if there is a chance they may get tossed.

Chinese Swimbaits
Which parts break? The joints or hooks? Ive read the hooks are junk but those are easy enough to replace. This is the company i was considering http://www.fishing24hours.com

Chinese Swimbaits
Anyone ever buy the chinese swimbaits off ebay? They are only like 8 bucks with free shipping. I've been wanting to give swimbaits a try but im not sure im ready to throw out big bucks just yet. Would love to hear if anyone has given these a shot or if i should just bite the bullet and buy from a known company.

Time To Stir The Pot!
Show me where i said only sec schools have been investigated? Do you even know how many ongoing investigations are going on right now? Violations are pretty common and arent always new worthy. However an investigation that could take away a crystal ball is pretty substantial. But by all means continue saying no one can beat the sec. We will just sweep the big name sec teams getting beat by acc teams this year under the rug. Not to mention unranked Texas Tech held TCU to less points than even the mighty LSU could. You can bet after tomorrow either alabama or t a&m will be favored to win the bcs ncg. But in reality the sec is pretty weak this year. Georgia is the best team in the sec as of now.

Time To Stir The Pot!
I love the excuse that other people are doing it, that of course makes it ok. Lets not forget that les miles is right there in the mix of the osu scandal. How many national championships will osu be vacating if this is all proven?

Bad Night
I always manually turn my bail over. Ill have to try that other first one though. Are you talking about making sure the spool is at the top of its spinning position?

Bad Night
Decided to go out for about an hour and work on my ultra light fishing. I was only able to hook into two large mouths in the hour because i cannot for the life of me keep from getting wind knots. Im running 8lb power pro with an ultra light 5' 6" daiwa on a pflueger trion 20 series, im going to respool it if anyone can recommend me a good line to use. To make matters worse i go over to a buddies house and put my pole laying across my back seat of my truck. He got something out of the back of my truck and when i got home i found my tip broken off in the door. So hopefully it can be fixed and made into a 5'5" ultra light.
