Around? +/- $20? For $225 you can get a Loomis BCR 804 (6'8), $255 an MBR 784C (6'6). For $200 a Shimano CUCX68MH (6'8 MH X-fast), $220 a CUCX72MH (7'2 MH X-fast).

$1000? Humminbird 797c SI hands down.

Terry has the Elite Tech for $150 if you didn't already know.

Only when I can tow my boat and camper with a bike.

Nope, I just despise drivers who cannot seem to understand that they need to learn to drive. Busch can't drive in traffic to save his life. He and his brother are the worst in Nascar for that BS.

That sorry SOB better sleep with both eyes open for a while. >

Skinny dippin'

3:10 to Yuma - A decent western. Found the casting to be a little interesting.

The Lake Fork Tackle swimbait hooks are the only ones I've found and BPS can't keep them in stock.

Mmmmmmmmmmm.... moon cheese

FUKUDOME!!!!

: Livewells are checked before every tournament.

Club had it's annual open tourney last weekend. A couple of guys show up, no one has ever seen them before. They ask about the entry fee ($60 + $10 big fish), ask what the dead fish penalty is, then pay the fee. Weigh-in time comes, they end up taking big fish with a dead fish. Strange coincidence? Cheating? They took about $250.

I've yet to talk to one that speaks US english. :-X

Nah, just our pitching.

Well, it does much better with 1.5 oz. swimbaits than it does with 3/4 oz. carolina rigs. Still not too pleased with the rod. Guess it's my final lesson on BPS rods. :-X

The 8030 is a nice reel. If I were buying again I would get the 8035 instead. The spool of the 8030 is a bit small for my liking.

Spy photos? Sure thing with TT's relationship with Shimano. : Anywho, I like what I see.

I hate St Louis.

Why be mad at BASS about something that happened with the USPS? Methinks you're barking up the wrong tree.

Wind, wind, and more wind.

Great fish, how much dynamite to get her to the surface?

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - I went in with high expectations. Got let down a bit, mostly due to said expectations. Apatow & Co. have set the bar quite high. Baby Mama - Much much better than anticipated. Tina Fey has a great talent. Amy Poehler was fantastic in her typical role.

It wasn't all that good. Now my fridge smells of smoke.
