I just joined a club last night.....I liked it because it fit exactly what I was looking for....the name is F 3 Bassmasters.....the F3 = Fishing For Fun

Sounds just like my Grandma except she would have brought jars of her sauce and meatballs just because and when she found the Chef Boyardee out the window it would fly!

Hey red bird fans, Alberts a good man, he's just a bit young. A little more maturity and his future free agency will no doubt make him a Yankee (we'll be needin a 1st baseman) at which time (along with Derek's help) he'll have learned how to handle the press......I like this dream....

Yup, and between us with the new stuff we're both buying we'll be the "Fishin Bling Brothers" (I like that name almost as much as "Two Mooks in a Boat") BTW....thanks for the input guys......I think I'm gonna remain a member of the Shimano Posse and go for the Cronarch MG50 for the light weight.......The new Daiwa Steez has me wondering but its pretty pricey comapred to the Cronarch

I didn't need it but when Alpster was selling his G Loomis MBR843C GLX for a really really great deal I couldn't resist. THANKYOU Alpster! Sooo this is half of my Christmas present from the baitmonkey! The other half is gonna be a new reel for it. I know I'm going to want to use this most of the time. Since I have a crankbait setup and a finesse setup this will be used for applications other than those. If you were in my shoes what reel would you get????? Since this is such a fine rod price is of minor concern. I want to do the entitre setup justice. I am thinking about some of the lighter weight reels but that is not cast in stone. Seeking opinions to help in my decision........

Yikes Avid......you may just have hit Mud Man below the belt.....gotta be careful teasing those Italians about their cookin.....take it from a guy who had an Italian Grandmother.....I'll bet he's so mad he's ........ ;D ;D ;D Vote no on McGuire......stats are the foundation of baseball and they have been compromised by him and others....a travesty for baseball fans......JMHO

How many red bird fans does it take to make a bass fishing forum? Just kidding Card fans.....but you certainly are in the majority.....all good....rest of us all wish we had the rings!

COOL!!!! He'll make a great addition to the Bosox Sorry NB.....just can't help myself!

NO FAVORS FOR RED SOX FANS!!!! ;D ;D Except maybe a fishing favor or two........

DMB......Great Trash Talk......THAT IS FUNNY!

It can be frustrating but sometimes the odd out answers have some good info too. May not help the person who asked but others can find the info helpful. As for these keep em coming Muddy....humor is always fun and hopefully folks are not so thin skinned that they fail to recognize it as such.

I sent a few pics, messed up an attachment so you got two e-mails. Sorry bout that LBH but this old man is a bit challenged when it comes to new technology ;D

Gotta get me one of those orange and white ones.......bet they'd knock em dead on Percy Priest Lake ;D

Hey Avid my situation is somewhat similar to yours after divorce. My two sons live close though so I get to see them for lunch both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Not sure how much lomger that will last as they both have really great girlfriends and it looks pretty serious. After that its usually to girlfriends house. I don't particularly like the holidays either for alot of reasons. But I figure its only 2 out of 365 days. Muddy has his heart in the right place.........a better world it would be if more of us would do what he does.

I love the four seasons too....Tennessee is not quite the winter wonderland like New England but we do get some snow and winter weather. I love winter hiking in the mountains and hills of Tennessee. With the leaves off the trees the views are spectacular. Nothings better than a light dusting of snow on the tree branches and Mountain Laurel while on an early morning hike. Oh and theres always the hot cider with that famous Tennessee resident Jack Daniels...........country ham biscuits from a country market on the way to the trail...... It's all good...........everywhere we go in this great country has it's own charm.... What a great day to reflect on that and be grateful for the diverse natural wonders we have in this great land of ours!

I still go heavy on the brake settings. I'm pleased with my distance so I'll stay with the heavy brakes and back off over time (months). I got overconfident last summer and backed way off my brakes....wind came up and it was a huge bird nest more like a bird mansion. Brakes went back on and problem mostly solved. Like Catt suggests I still mess with mine in the house. It is all in the thumb. Good luck.....once you fish with it on the water you'll really like it.

Greetings from Pluto the non planet.....they came and got me last nite. The party is great but its too darn cold up here and there are no plans for a Bass Pro Shop any time soon and there are no lakes or rivers so no fishin.....its just a never ending party....BEAM ME BACK HOME SCOTTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well said LBH..... I wish everyone a Happy and Joyous Thanksgiving!!!! Want to let Glenn and the mods know how thankful I am for all your efforts to keep this site going Be safe and eat well ya'll

Hey Senile and K Mac.....thanks for all the love Hey Muddy....everyone cares....love us or hate us everyone cares one way or the other Speakin of spending money....how about the Bosox and Cubbies

Hey DMB......thats just not a very nice thing to say ;D ;D ;D but I guess it's what us Yankee fans have to live with, its lonely at the top!!!!

Man are the Red Bird fans circlin the wagons around Albert ;D ;D ;D And I'm gonna get after those *^%$%^&*&%$*&^ whoevers that dissed Jeter RED BIRDS HAVE THE RINGS........guys thats the best thing to have won!

Is it being made by Rapala, Shimano, G Loomis, Triton or the US Navy????

Watch it K Mac.....I resemble that remark!

I'll bet Howard would trade the MVP award for a world series ring!

Welcome to the baseball threads Daniel.......I see a pattern that proves my theory that St Louis is the best baseball town.....there are red bird fans all over this forum and they all know their stuff! Even though it is at times biased ;D ;D ;D ;D
