Dan:

I've never bought it from a store to use at home but I have used it at restaurants and it is money.

Burley, that sounds delicious. I love lime and cilantro on pretty much anything. HERE YOU GO On the left you can sort the chicken recipes by what type of dish you want or by what cut of meat you have. This is one of my favorites. Some African coworkers made it for me and I loved it. It sounds like a very strange combo but just try it, you may love it. DON'T MAKE IF YOU DON'T LIKE (OR DIGEST) ETHNIC FOODS WEST AFRICAN PEANUT SOUP 2 med. onions, chopped 1 lg. red and-or green pepper, chopped 2 tbsp. oil 4 garlic cloves, mashed 1 (28 oz.) can tomatoes, coarsely chopped 8 c. chicken stock 1/2 tsp. pepper 1/2 tsp. crushed red hot peppers 1 1/2 c. cooked chicken, chopped 2/3 c. peanut butter Rub: garlic powder onion powder crushed red peppers salt pepper paprika chili powder (mix all these together to your liking but go easy on the garlic, onion, and chili. I mix them into a bag and smell it until I think it smells like the spicy and garlic/onion flavors have balanced a little toward the spicy side--shake the bag to mix the ingredients) Take thawed chicken (I use breasts) and lay them flat in a cooking pan. Stab chicken with a fork on both sides. Apply rub to both sides of the chicken by rubbing it in with one hand. Put in an oven that was preheated to 350-375 for about 30 minutes. While the chicken bakes... In large pot (like a stew pot), sautee onions, peppers and garlic in oil over a moderate to high heat until onions are just beginning to brown. Add all other ingredients EXCEPT chicken and peanut butter. Simmer, uncovered, over low heat for about 1 hour. Stir in peanut butter (you can use more than the recipe calls for if you like PB) and mix the stew until it all melts in and turns the stew a little creamy. Once the PB is dissolved into the stew, turn the stove down to low. After the 30 minutes, take the baking pan of chicken out of the oven and ladle stew from the pot over the chicken, just coating it with the stew. Put chicken back in the oven for another 30 minutes. You want the stew to be kind of creamy so you have to manage its consistency after you add the peanut butter. If it is too runny, put the heat higher and stir consistently so the PB doesn't burn in the pot. This will evaporate some of the water and leave the chicken flavor of the broth. Don't evaporate too much, just make it a nice creamy consistency and you will learn how to manage it to your liking. After the 30 minutes, check to make sure the chicken is fully cooked. Then cut it into small cubes or slices. Add chicken to the stew and simmer 10 to 15 minutes. Serve over rice. You can also add peeled and chopped yucca if you want. The authentic stuff the Africans gave me had yucca and it was awesome but I haven't tried the recipe with yucca yet...

Yup. I definitely should have been working on my senior thesis but.....

i hate you.

btw, Sorry Eddie, I have already sold the rod. Now its time to get me a Cumara or Fuego!

Wow, NICE CATCH!

No, I've never had any waders. When I went out in your kayak I was just wearing jeans. I only wade in the summer so I wade in swim trunks. If you have an extra pair that you are willing to let me use, I will just use those. If they don't fit me then I'll just stick to the bank with any other guys that show up without boats.

Anyone seen this movie? My roommate rented it last night. I had no interest in watching it because it looked like a stupid teeny movie made to make 15 year olds giggle but it was actually VERY funny. It's pretty raunchy but there is some non-sexual humor as well. I thought it was kind of like Superbad mixed with a little bit of American Pie

Andrew, what is a size 13 like? Is that by the shoe size? I wear 11-11.5 shoes. I hope they will fit my big *** and legs... ;D

Dude, that thing has got to be closer to 20lbs! Do you find that koi or koi/carp mixes fight harder than carp? I have caught plenty of carp and a few koi and I thought that carp put up more of a fight. Just wondering if your experiences are the same because you seem to be quite the expert on the two. And ignore the negative comments. Your post was moved because it makes more sense for it to be here. Sure you were posting about an outing, but the "Other Species" section is for outings/questions/comments for other fish species. No problem! That's exactly what this section of the forum is for.

I didn't think it was as bad@ as The Boondock Saints but I thought it was pretty good.

So we have a suggestion of Bull Run. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Maybe a location that is good for some of our shore-bound anglers? (If there are any planning on coming)

Pedal-drive kayaks have openings in the bottom that allow water in. Last time I was in Andrew's yak my jeans got soaked completely through. That's not a problem in warm water or if I get some waders, though. And if we decide to go to bigger waters then wind could cause waves. Tell me if I'm wrong, but can't those affect stability? I don't mean to be a negative nancy or anything, I'm just not going to risk any instability if the water is still chilly.

I have driven 2 hours to go to a place called Green Top outside of Richmond. I go there because of the great selection.

I saw someone use masking tape on tv. They just wrote the type of line on it and stuck it on the side of the reel.

Hmm, that's interesting. I have a spool of Triple Fish fluoro but I haven't fished it yet so I haven't discovered any breaking issues. I have to say I do think it has less memory than other flourocarbons that I have tried.

I haven't used a Revo but I absolutely love my new Citica.

I can't believe your teacher thought you needed help with your writing. What is wrong with that woman? :-X

I watched the first two episodes while I was at home this weekend. I really like Danny McBride. You can tell that a lot of the scenes, especially the ones with Will Ferrell were improvised. "Why is there silver *#&$ all over your face?" "I was hanging out with those dudes in the parking lot." (he had been huffing paint with homeless guys) "Doing what? Giving Robocop a b@#$%^&?"

Honestly that is not surprising at all.

Warm enough for the fish to bite!! Some hand warmers and a wind breaker and you'll be straight. You must have never fished from a pedal propelled kayak. I don't care about it being cold for the fish, I'm worried about going in a small craft onto big water with the potential for windy conditions and very cold water... that's all... Somebody please put my mind at ease.

My grandpa told me about a place north of Mifflintown on Old Rt. 22. I think it was Carter's Hole or something like that. Does anyone know about it? I know it is deep, but is it fishable from the bank?

LMAO, that was fantastic.

Obviously braid has the advantage of having no stretch and much stronger per diameter size than mono. I only use braid in one situation--thick weeds. IMO, it far outperforms other types of line when you are trying to get a fish out of thick weeds or pads. The thin diameter of the line cuts straight through vegetation and the increased strength makes it much easier to keep control of the fish.

It's pretty standard to write in present tense in reference to literature...and lots of other subjects as well. It's really awkward at first but you'll get used to it once you do it for a while.
