You've never had Bass Helper?

You're just figuring that out? Isn't that the entire point of education?

Bass are quite tasty. Nothing like some good fried smallmouth after a day on the river.

When you're hungry.

Wow, and I thought I was selfish. : Perhaps you should keep opinions like this to yourself. I fish lakes of 7000, 34 000 and 33 000 acres, so I'm not too worried about crowds. The more the merrier as far as I'm concerned. I guess you would rather have kids indoors playing video games rather than outdoors learning to appreciate nature.

If that is the same weekend as Lobby Day, I'll try to make it.

It's a sham propagated by academia. Go to college or you won't get a good job. Sometimes college helps, sometimes it doesn't. But a degree is by no means a guarantee for a job.

I fish the same way I pee.

24V motors use less amperage per pound of thrust than 12V motors. The same goes for 36V over 24V.

Try the Stoney Point Steady Stix II Magnum.

No kidding, if only there had been a banjo in one of those pics... With rain in the forecast, I left my banjo at home.

We ran an assembly line. One removing from the stringer, one taking to the table, one cutting the fillets off the fish, two cutting the skin off the fillets and bagging. The last time we went up there, it took us four hours to clean around 80 fish. This time it took us about two hours to clean 120 fish. Skinning cats is for the birds.

:-?

x2. But if I break up with the woman it will be back. :-X Isn't about time for you to buy a ring?

That's the plan...

Curado and the proper rod.

No, it is probably dying a long slow death. Why would you do such a thing?

Nah, just spent a lot of time on that lake over the last two months.

The sun shines on a dog's *** every now and then...

It was a bit too much like work...

After fishing the rodeo Friday night, I unhooked the boat, hooked up the canoe and headed east with some friends to the James River. Caught a few smallmouth to start the day, but the current was a little more than I could handle alone in the canoe, so I retired to a bridge pier to give the cats a chance. In the 27 years I've been fishing, I've never caught a catfish. I've tried a time or two, but for the most part just haven't fished for them. All of that changed after one cast Saturday evening. Threw a live minnow in the river channel and had a bite within two minutes. This was the culprit. Not a bad first... A night of bass fishing, followed by one catfish. I caught a couple of smaller channel cats, then we went out to set the trotlines. Before we even got the line baited, we could feel fish on the other end. We ran the lines twice and had over 70 fish. Ran them again, got a few more, then got some shuteye. Got up Sunday morning, ran the lines one more time in the rain, then rolled everything up. The end result? A big mess of fish. The blue cat was 16 lbs. The freezer is full for another year...

I prefer yellow or strawberry. No icing.

There were some schedule changes and eliminations. http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1231505327
