Calling the police around here won't get you any satisfaction. You need a few dozen rotten eggs and a big slingshot.

Just finished a clean and oil on one of these reels. The word 'amazing' comes to mind. While I don't have a lot of experience doing this stuff, the bearings on that reel kick the *** of every other reel I've serviced. I need those bearings on my Calcuttas.

The same comment circulated around the room a few times while we were watching the end. Well, I must admit that my view on Johnson has softened a bit since Dale went to the evil empire. :-/ I don't even cuss Gordon anymore when he's on TV. :-?

Does this guy know how to party or what?

It's a sad state of affairs when I'm rooting for Pretty Boy Johnson at the end of a race. :-X

Almost 20 years ago.

Using that logic, why spend $300 on two St. Croix rods when you can buy 10 Ugly Sticks?

I noticed the carpet on your bunks looked a little bad when we took out that morning. You might have something there with that plastic lumber. Cover it with a good marine carpet and it should outlast the carpet.

I'm counting the days till mine show up....

Prepare to bend some hooks.

That was the intention...

Well, my wife has had me second guessing that question a time or two ;D. Women don't count.

How could something so gorgeous not be worth it?

what about dover? It sucks too.

It's all about the Macro!

I would gladly pay $25 per race to NOT listen to Darrell Waltrip.

I had played before, but not all that much. Picked it up yesterday, played it from 3AM-7AM this morning. Got a blister on my thumb and a sore forearm. It's like I'm 13 all over again!

There's a reason I refuse to watch races at Calfornia, Michigan, Chicago, Kansas City, Homestead, Charlotte, Las Vegas, Texas, Loudon, and Pocono. Run Bristol (x3), Richmond (x3), Martinsville(x2), Rockingham, North Wilkesboro and Kentucky! Hell, even Milwaukee would be better than Loudon (and they're pretty much the same crappy track).

WS homefield should not be connected with the farce that is the All Star game.

I can only take it in small doses. Unfortunately the movie gave me a big enough dose to ward off any viewing of the show until 2028.

Yep, it will cure what ails ya.

Hopefully we'll catch all 16 fish that are in the lake.

If I'm not mistaken, the FI has the screw-in handle. Gently hold the spool and turn the handle backwards. There should be a port cover on the opposite side. Remove that and screw the handle into that side. I haven't handled an FI yet, so that may or may not be correct.

You're comparing apples (Zebco 33) and oranges (Flooger).

Well, I painfully removed the Griffon from it's packaging. Wow...just wow. If only these baits weren't so darn hard on the billfold... :'(
