~The Road to the Super Bowl 2016 & 2017~
I wouldn't give Brady any motivation and Brown probably did just that. The dude has a killer instinct when he plays with a chip on his shoulder. Atlanta's offense looks great, but Rodgers has been crazy good lately.

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
I ordered $200 worth of jigs and Rage plastics from the Siebert's sale. $150 worth of Seaguar and some other random stuff from the TW sale. A bunch of CRS bills from Academy I plan to try out this year and a couple packs of Lime Purple Passion Pit Boss. A new 8.3.1 Tournament Pro G from that auction site. A KastKing rod rack without the logos from the jungle. And I plan on picking up a 7'3" Duckett this weekend from Bass Pro Shop. The 2016 Lowe Stinger 175 I saw today, going to try and talk myself out of that one.
- Senkos or Dingers?

Favorite Punching Skirt
I just ordered a couple wire tied skirts from @Siebert Outdoors. Nothing I have ordered from him has disappointed me, it's pretty much the only place I order anything that uses a skirt now.

Havoc Pit Boss
I just ordered four packs of Lime Purple Passion from Academy if anyone is hunting some. Free shipping at $25. The weird thing was they were advertised as 10 in a pack and 4 1/2". According to the SKU, they are 4". Academy is weird about marking stuff like that. But I usually receive orders in two days from them. Really only wanted that color for a trailer as I just ordered a bit of structure bugs and have a ton of d-bombs for pitching and punching.

Can Any Team Stop The Crimson Tide?
I expect LSU to be quite good next year. They looked real good after letting Miles go. Fournette will be missed though.

Female bass anglers?
One of my best friends and the one that got me hooked on bass fishing is female. She's a pretty good tournament angler too.

The latest sale thread
I ordered a copy of it as well and it should be here tomorrow. From what I gathered from everyone talking about it, is that focuses on structure, breaks and break lines and how bass relate to them.

The latest sale thread
I placed a decent Tackle Warehouse order last night, but it was mostly for Seaguar line. Siebert's got most of my business for having Rage marked down. Amazon basically bought me a KastKing 24 rod rack for signing up for their card which I will cancel anyway, except I ordered the unbranded one. Same rack just no logos.

~The Road to the Super Bowl 2016 & 2017~
The Packers are looking good, especially their defense. Even with Ben at full health, I don't really see them getting that far with their secondary. It's pretty awful. These teams with great offenses are really showing some defense this year and not just winning because their offense is lighting the boards up. I don't really anybody stopping Brady this year, but the winner of Dallas and Green Bay could very well do it. The future sure does look good for Dallas though.

Disney World
I think the majority of our meals was pretty good, but we went to a lot of the higher end restaurants since our plan covered everything. The only buffet style place we went to was Mickey's Backyard BBQ. Can't complain about our service as we had some very good waiters and waitresses.

Disney World
That's what we did. All we had to pay for was tips for meals and whatever gifts we bought. At first, I thought the meal package was expensive, but we plan to do it the same way next time. It was so much easier just scanning a band and we was on our way. I think the best meal we had was the first night at Fulton's, one of the best steaks I have had.

Disney World
Me and the wife went to Disney with some best friends and their kids. That place is awesome and I thought it would suck. Think I had more fun than the kids did. We have another trip planned for 2019 now that we have a 6 month old. We spent six days running around nonstop from about 6am to after midnight. The last day, I returned to the room solo and called it a night. Still so much we wanted to do that just didn't fit into the schedule. The 12 hour drive one way was probably the easiest part of our trip.

It is here
I ordered mine today on eBay for $22, but shipping was $11. This was directly from Buck Perry website though. I inquired about the shipping and they use two day priority with insurance so it makes sense. I did a bit of searching and did not find it any cheaper, so your best bet is probably to order directly from them on eBay. Same here except we have a rare winter storm coming through that dropped temperatures below freezing here and ice everywhere. Supposed to be back in the 70s next week. ?

What lure caught your biggest bass of 2016?
The biggest I caught last year was a little over 7lbs using a Siebert's Outdoor fogy in summer craw with a lime purple passion pit boss rigged vertical. Got the idea from @Bluebasser86 and it sure has produced.

I plan on picking up a copy of this book soon after hearing all the interesting things being said about it.

Punching what do I need to know
You mind explaining your typical setup for punching that? Like what size weight it normally requires? I plan on attacking it that way the next time I have the opportunity to fish it and am looking for an idea where to start. And thanks for the reply, always enjoy reading your posts.

Punching what do I need to know
@CattHow do you attack that third picture? We have similar looking grass here that looks like Christmas trees all over the water, not sure what exactly it is. I have had success fishing the edges of it since that is how my friend usually fishes it, but I always wonder what the proper way to attack it punching would be since I am pretty sure there is much bigger fish hiding in it.

Baitcast Reel Winterizing?
I personally don't put grease on my levelwind; I use heavy oil instead. I usually do an annual deep clean in the winter and periodic lubing as needed. There is some tutorials on YouTube that was a huge help when I started doing my own maintenance and are worth checking out.

Havoc Pit Boss
Saw that yesterday while scanning Siebert's for an order and thought it looked pretty similar. I think I will pick up a pack or two.

Havoc Pit Boss
This is pretty much all I use almost on blades jigs since seeing your post with them rigged vertical. I was quite bummed to see Lime Purple Passion seems to be discontinued.

~2016 Fantasy Football Sign Up~
Brady sure made it interesting. Not sure why I did not just play Prescott instead. I guess the last minute switch from Hightower to Martin paid off as well. My receivers are still all over the place, but at least I'm putting some wins together finally.

~2016 Fantasy Football Sign Up~
There has been talk for a few weeks that he was most likely going to take over the top spot because CJ wasn't doing as good as they expected. Booker has a much better YPC. I almost picked him up a few weeks ago, but I don't really have a RB worth dropping. Wish I had that situation with receivers...
