Cigarlover 1

INSANE! http://www.biertijd.com/mediaplayer/?itemid=4262

I've caught em from shore on Jointed Shad Raps and Storm Hot-N-Tots.

That's awesome. Thanks for sharing. I lived in Pittsburgh for about 3 yrs. Brings back some good memories.

So I looking at getting a rod specifically for flipping (not pitching) and I don't see a lot of people using 8 ft rods, mostly I see 7'6". Is there any reason for this as far as performance goes or is it personal preference maybe transporting or storage? Seems like the extra half foot would give an extra advantage in not spooking the fish.

you can't beat this for $7.50. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_80198_100012001_100000000_100012000_100-12-1

New look BR works great from this end. Love it! Thanks Glenn!

Do you know what the differences are in the two?

I was Dick's Sporting Goods yesterday and they had Silver Max/Lightning Rod combos for $40 after mail in rebates. They weren't selling just the reel though.

Now he just needs a UK onsey.

Congrats man! Those 4D images are really amazing.

I'm at work. Bills dont stop when the snows starts falling. It started at about 12:10. By 12:30 everything outside is covered. We're supposed to get about 8-10 in. I think.

IMO nothing goes better with a nice cigar than a nice glass of bourbon or scotch. I'll usually throw a couple pieces of ice in. For Bourbon I like Rip Van Winkle and Woodford Reserve. When I drink Scotch I like Islay Scotch. It has a rich smoky flavor. Goes great with a cigar. I like Lagavulin, Laphroig, Bowmore.

5in *** *** rigged weightless with a 3/0 EWG hook. Hopefully after next year I'll be a little better with a jig and I can move it into my go to spot.

John, thoughts and prayers are headed your way buddy!

You literally took the words out of my mouth. That video is spectacular.

'09 or bust! Boy or Girl, fisherperson or not we'll be happy either way. Thanks for the well wishes gang.

I could do that too but it would just make a big THUD! on top of the ice. LOL

And this is what make cabin fever so bad. These look awesome. Can't wait to get some..........and use them next spring. LOL

I can offically say I'm going to be a dad. My wife Amy is 13 and a half weeks pregnant with our first child. WOO HOO!!! We decided we weren't getting any younger and it was time to take the plunge. Keep you fingers crossed for a boy. ;D Soooo with a due date of June 8th my spring will be spent saving as much mula as possible, taking care of my wife and saving my time at work since I have to use vacation when she has the baby. No G-ville for me. Maybe '09.

Great fish as usual. Looks like Jake is livin the dream.

Nice walleye. Sounds like a fun catch. Usually they don't fight much until they see land/boat.

That's why I prefer to be in a boat. lol

That is one amazing fish right there.

Very sorry to hear about your loss. People like that are very special to have in this world but like you said he is in a better place now.
