Great, just what I need. A kayak. Wife is gonna kill me...

Fallfish.

i see what i desire............... Oh, you should see EVERYTHING in person. Unreal.

I still want to catch a shark on a swimbait. ;D

I want to catch sharks on a swimbait. Make it happen.

I can't bet against PSU. I was more encouraged this morning when I learned Alabama was not expecting Ingram to play at all and they were also not appealing the suspension of their top D-lineman. It will be a good game.

It's cool man. You can put them away. I'll take your word on how low they swing. ;D

Well dam, I'm hunting in the wrong area. ;D Shoot on then!!

You do realize they are called Goliath Grouper now?

Well, if ya have to ask... :

You were hunting with 26 other people for doves?

JFrancho gets my reels.

If the wonderful PA weather doesn't go through an extreme cold snap, you will probably find some decent topwater action. If you are lucky enough to find them boiling on the surface a fluke, spook or trap run through or under the school could get you hooked up. I'm banking on a swimbait bite.

Have seen the 8' Flippin' stick in action and used it for a limited amount of time. Seemed like a good stick for their relatively small retail cost. The reels are too new, don't know how much feedback you will get on those.

LOL, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying I wouldn't participate. I just hope no one gets their panties (or Depends) in a bunch when I tell them to go *&^% off and/or tell you which part of my anatomy to kiss. Just sayin'... ;D

Honestly, I think you hit the nail on the head with the last part. I don't see people being able to keep it civil or "turn it off" on the regular boards. There are other places to go vent.

I thought I smelled dust and heard the sound of Matlock in the background.... and there you are. ;D

Nice. Seriously though, with as much time as you spend on Ebay buying things (based on your questions in the Tackle Forum) you really should have a scale by now. Even something cheap is better than nothing...

LOL, maybe with less filters too. ;D

I call BS. If you had to pick one, I would bet on a Zoom Finesse worm, likely pumpkin in color with the tail dipped in chartreuse JJ's. Close? ;D

150k and under

Potentially traveling there next weekend to meet up with some of the VA mafia. Anyone have info on the lake other than what turns up in the rudimentary google/yahoo search? Gracias.

Just a little hilarious FYI.....The OP is a police office. ;D

its not a "certified" world record. It still shows you how big bass can get and its bigger than any other one caught. Just because it didnt meet the standards to be the official record (just cause it was fowl hooked) does not take 5 pounds off of the fish. Its still 25 pounds. oh and by the way when i said the 22 of 25 biggest have come from california i wasnt trying to brag for california i was just saying 24 of the 25 biggest bass have come from the US while japan is the only other country on there that has a fish in the top. Correction, they have THE fish ON TOP. No other fish matter at this point, IMO, only the next fish that is bigger. Dottie was a great looking fish, but it's still not the record. Argue until you are blue in the face, doesn't matter to me. There is a reason Mike Long, Mattlures, WRB and other Cali bass guys don't "officially" report their big catches: 1. They don't want people knowing where the fish are being caught. 2. If it's not "The One" then who really cares if it's certified or not?
