Bulk Plastics
There is a sporting goods store back in the Portland, Ore. area called G.I. Joes.. they used to have a plastic worm bar,, kinda like a salad bar.. just go along and pick what you wanted, then go to the cash register.. I loved that aspect of it... Wish someone around here would do that... :-/

learning basic baitcasting
Practice, Practice, practice, practice, and more practice, I used to make 30-40 casts a day in my backyard till I was comfortable enough to use it fishing.... However, backlashes are a way of life with b/c reels... I never have a trip out without at least one. hmmmmmmmm maybe i need more practice/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/

favorit food
Take a fresh caught salmon or steelhead (still has the sea lice on it), split it open, put it on a hot grill, baste it with melted garlic butter and pureed onions. Man, now I have to go cook,, darn it, ;D

Would you order a reel from Walmart?
I would ask Reel Mech, he might be more informed. I only say this because there are two versions of the Ruger 10-22 rifle. One you buy in an actual gun shop, the other you buy at Walmart,, and the Walmart version is a cheap copy, that will not last like the other one you buy in gun shops. That is why Walmart is cheaper on them.... cause they cost less to make, and they are made to a lesser standard. jmho.

Avid, thank you for lending an ear, when I needed itl. LBH, you have shown the true meaning of Christmas to me. Fluke, Adam thanks for the fishing trips. Muddy and all the rest of you, thank you for making me laugh (a lot of times I really needed it) and for all the interesting conversation and advice. Guess I better stop before I am accused of having a Midol Moment! ;D May God Bless You All, and again MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR

LBH, I am totally with you on this one my man. :o :o ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

We talkin' bout practice
Speed, I can name two, both are rookies... Adam Morrison and Brandon Roy.. both are upstanding citizens. As for being role models,, ever since Barkley made his little rant about role models,,seems the whole sporting world took his words for Gospel.. Look at what happened between Denver and NY..... they are all overpaid, whiny punks, in my opinion. with a few good apples thrown in to be spoiled by the rest.

I HATE THIEVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for all the good will from everyone, I am still angry enough to bite nails and spit tacks. If they catch these thieves, I will ask that BassResource.com people be put on the jury.... cause like Charlie Daniels says,,,, Hang em in a tree and let em swing till the sun goes down, take em out in a swamp, tie em to a stump, let the bugs, and the snakes and the alligators do the rest. Anyone doubt that I am a believer in capital punishment???? :o :o Adam, I may give you a call, I am off on Friday... it will have to be your boat though, I have mine tore down and working on it, which I have to put on hold till this is all straightened out.

wet day on lake lanier
I am over between Loganville and Monroe... close to Varner... but even at work, it only sprinkled a bit in Lawrenceville... nothing major. Nothing even close to what you experienced on Lanier.

wet day on lake lanier
Man, glad you kept all the rain on your side of town!!! It has been sunny and nice all day over here on the East side..... Looks like you had a good time fishing anyway... that is what counts, and any fish in the boat is a fish in the boat, at least according to one of my buddies.... whatever that is supposed to mean .. lol Nasty weather in those pics though, reminds me of back in the Pacific Northwest, winter steelheading..

I HATE THIEVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got back from spending two hours at my bank. They had called and asked if there was a problem, why my account was so badly overdrawn. :o I was like SAY WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There should have been plenty in the account to cover everything and lots left over! Well, here is a warning guys.... someone stole both mine and my wifes Visa Check Card #'s and went on a shopping spree.... the guy in the Fraud department, says that one of the ways they get them is to use a camera phone, and when they run your card, they take a picture of it, it could have happened over the internet, (we pay our bills that way) well we did until today! An employee at one of the places we shop could have just written the #'s down, or the newest one is someone has figured out how to hack into the card readers at gas stations.... > > > > > > > > > > > > One of the charges was for over a grand to the Plaza Hotel in Maryland! I have never been to Maryland in my life!!!! If, I could just get my hands on these crooks.. To make a long story a bit shorter. I just froze our accounts, and Visa and the bank are going to do an investigation! I am borrowing enough cash to get us through the Christmas weekend with groceries, gas, etc..... but after that, we are gonna be stretched real thin till the investigation is complete. I just wanted everyone to be aware, and to be more careful with your credit card purchases, even using an atm card.. like P.T. Barnum said, there is a sucker born every minute, and two to take him.
