Yep, the clock got alzhimers and crapped out. At least three guys will show up in Guntersville sometime in May. LOL I got a new clock and it works much better. Thanks for the heads up. Ronnie

Here's a few articles from this site to help you........ http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/drop_shot_bass_fish.html http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/dropshot_fish.html http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/drop_shot_bassfish_2.html Ronnie

70 degrees here! I just got back from a 3 hour ride. AWESOME! ;D Ronnie

Hey Kent, I saw pics of the sky over your hometown on the weather channel and got that sinking feeling. Glad you and yours are OK. Ronnie

I like BIG motorcycles and cross country touring.................... Ronnie

With all due respect Ronnie. If you quote the bible, it's a religious post. Sorry Avid, I couldn't resist buddy... Ronnie

WELCOME to the forums. Everything you ever wanted to know about a Senko... http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1121527643 Start here. Hope this helps. Ronnie

Just can't seem to get my head around Rap, but I love almost everything else. My very favorites are, in no particular order... 60s Folk/Rock (Cat Stevens, James Taylor, Crosby Stills & others,) 60s Southern Rock (Allman Bros., Wet Willie, etc.) Classic & Jazz Guitarists (Segovia, Lorimar, Al DiMeola, Paco Delucia, Leo Kotke, & a bunch more) Classic Rock & Roll (Zepplin, Stones, Free, 10 Years After, Clapton, etc.) Motown (wayyy too many to list) This hard cause I like it all. Ronnie

I think it's most important to be accurate and confident. When I get a new reel, I start with all the brakes on and try to work toward turning them all off. I think brakes are great for reducing backlash but they also hinder the performance of the reel. I probably get more overruns than I should, but I also feel I get all the performance out of the reel. Besides, I have caught a few nice fish while picking out a backlash. Turn them off one at a time and see where it becomes difficult to cast and turn it back on. You are the only one who can find what you are comfortable with. Experiment and have fun! Ronnie

I have tried to make a commitment to the following.... Tackle - If it's not in my box, no opinion, only questions Rod/reels/lines - If I never owned/fished it, no opinion, only questions Techniques - If I am not real good at it, I am limited to questions only Boats/Lakes/Girls/Elephant breeding, etc. - It's OK if I am ignorant about it. I am thankful for the REAL experts in these areas. I hope this is a positive response. Ronnie

Still Muddy after all these years! HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOMINICK! Ronnie

Looks like an awesome trip. I was there about 30 years ago. LOL I've been meaning to ask about your guitar. What do you play? I played for many years, a classical guitar major in college and recorded an album in the 70s (it's vinyl, that's how we did it in the old days). The last guitar I owned was a 1975 D28 Martin (maybe the sweetest dreadnought on the planet). I sold it a few years ago. Arthritis took my hands and I can't play anymore, but I have some wonderful memories of performing and jamming with friends. Ronnie

to the forum. It just so happens that our members are planning a trip in March. You & your dad are welcome to join us. Check out the details on the website. http://guntersville.bassresource.com/ Hope to see you there. Send me a PM if I can be of help. Ronnie

Excellent! Glad you got to meet him! P.S. Never leave your sharpie in the car. Ronnie

Disclaimer - This is not a religious post, just some great, practical advice from the bible....... "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others." Phillipians 2: 3 & 4 Ronnie

i do have to agree with that. belichek should have given credit to the giants defense, they worked his o-line hard all game and it showed in the final score. of course his undefeated team just got defeated, i'm sure he had a LOT to say in the locker room! I thought his walking off the field while his team was still lined up for the last play was pretty sad. Kind of pouted like a little kid that didn't get his way. :-/ Ronnie

EVERYTHING! I repeat, everything is wrong with this picture. I can't even picture it. ;D Ronnie

Licensed Land Surveyor in private practice. Also a Licensed Mook! Ronnie

Dominick, According to the website sign up list the current total is about 50 members. I can't wait to get my face into them meatballs again. What a treat. You are Da Man Muddy. Sad for you guys that can't make it. Ronnie

This is what I'm using now. If I run out of space, i just get another bag and some more 3700s. Very economical and make organizing baits a snap. Ronnie

Jig & Pig Ronne

Raul, I love your story and I love your posts. I admire your knowledge and your attitude. You are always willing to help the new guys and always getting the best of us old ones. You are a quick wit and a gentleman. You are a perfect choice for a BR Elite member. Congratulations and thanks for all you contribute to the site. God bless you, brother. Ronnie

Get yourself a package of 7-1/2" Culprit worms in black shad color. Texas rigged with a 3/16 oz bullet weight. Fish it in heavy cover very slowly. It will open up a whole new world of fishing plastics. JMHO Ronnie

If you have $250 to spend, get a Shimano Chronarch 50Mg. You will love it. I have 4 of them. GREAT REELS! Ronnie
