I can understand that. One step at a time. I think you would come in with a little bit of a learning curve as your knowledge for line ties, lip style/angles, shapes etc. rival those of some of the best builders. Should be interesting to see what you could come up with.

That looks very good String! Not bad at all for a first time. One question, are you planning on just repainting or are you going to start making your own baits as well?

Infidel- we call the spot hybrids meanmouths.

I'll second

Vince Young is not on the bench because he can't deal with leadership. It all stems from him arriving in the NFL and finally being coached as a quarterback. He's always been an athlete at the qb position. He has great leadership and play making ability when they allow him to be free and move out of the pocket and run. Unfortunately, the Titans drafted someone who has never in his life been a pocket passer and try to turn him into one. It's like he's back at the junior high level trying to learn to play the quarterback position correctly while doing it in the NFL. Anyway, I'm real glad to see what he did for Mcnair's kids. His heart is definitely in the right place.

Nope, Donovan only eats it when momma makes it for him. Don't you pay attention to the advertisements :

flechero--I think you probably hit it right on. That makes the most sense I guess.

I love my long sleeve Gemini jersey that our team has. As for when I'm just fishing, I'm a HUGE fan of Columbia PFG products. Especially the Skiff Guide II long sleeves. Like someone already mentioned, get the long sleeves. Skin cancer isn't worth it and I honestly can't tell any difference in a nice long sleeve fishing shirt than in a nice short sleeve one. A t-shirt of any kind is much warmer and gets soaked and sticks to you and I find that very uncomfortable.

He was fishing the jig with a Daiwa Light n' Tough rod but told reporters he was using his signature series rod.

Ain't that the truth haha. Don't let the cat out of the bag Koop. Our well-executed strategy is working.

Jerry Rice JR is a freshman wr at UCLA. Not sure about any stats for him but his rivals report makes him sound mediocre.

I meant punching. I was watching Monday Night Football so I might have been thinking something else haha. I would also recommend the 4" version. I like green pumpkin and black/blue flake. I like the crazy legs version as a trailer on a football jig.

I'm not trying to open up the can of worms about whether they fish stock or not. Just can't understand why someone would say they used one rod when all the on-the-water coverage shows him using something completely different. I know they've said it for years they used there sponsors hot new so and so but when there's video evidence that they're obviously not using it why still admit it? Naive I suppose

First of all, I have a lot of respect for Ike. His fishing-attitude and confidence level is what every angler should strive for and he's one of the nicest guys I've ever talked to. That said...his rods must be crap. In most of the tournament footage I've seen since they've debuted, he hasn't used them. He seems to really like the Light n' Tough series and he also fishes the Steez rods a lot. Don't believe me, go to bassmaster.com and check out the BassCam videos from Jordan. Notice what rod he's using in each clip and then look at what rod he gives credit too :

I fish them texas rigged pretty often. Especially when I'm flipping, pitching, or punching. One of my favorite craw baits.

I agree with Dan. Had it not been for the return guy trying to bring that ball back they probably would have had it won. I hope the next game is equally exciting.

10" plum power worm with a 5/0 Owner rig'n hook

3/32-1/8 shakey head in the early early spring or skipping wacky jigs under docks in the summer.

20lb braid isn't a bad option. You just have to use a fluoro leader if fishing around rocks. I personally fish 12 lb Trilene 100% fluoro all the way.

Now the woman doing the post game interview? NBC should be banned from airing anything close to football.

Overtime was weird. Looks like the Steelers Offense decided to show up. Or the Titans D didn't. :'( Good game none the less.

Agreed. D@mn shame

First half is over and this is looking to be traditional Titans-Steelers football. Well played and very aggressive. Should be an awesome second half

He's a heck of a player for sure. Three penalties for him so far. That's almost as rare as Rob Bironas missing a head on 37 yarder.

Looks like Troy Polamalu is gonna have to score all their points. It's a safe presumption to say he's made 97% of the Steeler's plays on defense.
