Show off your Stuff
My buddy is a steelhead guide and has six of these, all 2500 size. The 3000 body is like a 2500 series and I wanted the T style grip. It is very light to say the least. You know the 2500 size also come in a high speed retrieve version. I can't wait to fish it.

Funny Craigslist Ad
If that was in my town, someone would try and take it back to a store for a full refund.

Has the term "flipping" replaced the term "pitching"?
My 1986 Lews " Pitchin' Stik" that was 6'8" long and still telescopic. Heavy action. What a fun stick stick to pitch Stanley Jigs with a pork frog and black 6 inch Gatortail worms with.

Don't Be A Theft Victim
Guys and Gals, Just a reminder: With the influx of on line shopping and Christmas Shopping, thieves are on the prowl. Deliveries left on your porch or front step are at the highest risk of the year. If you shop at shopping centers or malls, place ALL valuables in the trunk or out of sight and park in highly lit areas. Vehicle prowls are at the highest numbers from now through Christmas. Remind your wives, gentleman to NEVER EVER leave their purse unattended, even for one second or when a foot away. Check your bank statements for debit and on line purchases often. If you travel, alert your bank or credit union of your destination and the period you will be gone. Be aware of your surroundings when shopping and travelling. The best defense is, " don't be there." Only carry those charge cards or debit card you will actually be using. Leave the rest at home in the safe. Have a safe and crime free holiday season. A retired cop.

Favorite crankbait that dives 10-15 feet
Normans Deep Little N. Very affordable and over 40 color options.

Flipping creature baits
You guys are doing Jake a huge dis-service. Every bass fisherman should have to spend a thousand bucks on plastics to finally figure out what really works for them. Or, he could get some Space Monkeys, Rage Bugs and Craws with a few Rodents thrown in and save a bunch of money.

I for one, wish Gary and his family well. That fact Sulpher Springs is about, what, 25 minutes from Lake Fork might have twisted his arm.

Your coolest new technique this year?
Neko rig. I can think of several scenarios where this technique would have done well last year but I did not put the drop shot down.

Did You Play in High School Band???
Yes. Five years of trumpet. I don't recall it being fun and I refused to wear a white shirt and thin black tie with slacks.

The latest sale thread
I went in to my local family owned sporting goods dealer to get a new mountain bike seat for my son and walked out with two Tatula CT Type R's. They were on clearance and I was able to apply a preferred customer discount which dropped them to further to $87.99 apiece. Not bad.

To coffee or not to coffee
Great minds think alike. I would try that but I don't want to have a kidney stone with pincers.

To coffee or not to coffee
I put a tea spoon of crawfish Smelly Jelly on my oatmeal every morning, that way when I want to sent a lure I just spit on it. It also keeps me regular.
