Vols opened with a goose egg, they forgot to pack the bats onto the bus!

I was told to crimp then solder then shrink wrap my boat connections by an auto mechanic buddy of mine. He said it will always be exposed to the elements so corrosion is inevitable

Holy crap man!

Well said. This has been helping a little

I’ve never thought about it much, I’ve got several rods between 6’ and 7’. Longer rod definitely helps cast further. If you go to the beach take the longest ones you’ve got!

That’s up to you, some old timers fish tiny streams with 10’ rods for trout.

Not much you can do other than quit fishing! I’ve caught many one eyed bass that weren’t feeling bad for themselves. Also if it was a keeper sized fish you could always fry it, that’s about as natural of a progression of events that can happen in nature.

It sounds like you were taught the same as me, “He who humbles himself will be exalted and he who exalts himself will be humbled”

There’s a lot more money in drywall than there is in bass fishing!

Sometimes a shorter rod is more manageable and a shorter boat in respect to tree limbs and all that jazz but I’m sure you could get used to anything

Family guy weather man Ollie Williams sums up the one constant of all our seasons

Somebody has to do the hard work of catching all the big ones, looks like y’all have made the sacrifice and agreed to take on the project ill just keep fishing for 13 hours straight and catching a couple dinks, I don’t want bore myself catching a bunch of 3 lbers!.........

Pretty spot!!!

(Insert kiss my rear end emoji)

They have to get shallow enough to get sunlight to the eggs. It depends on water clarity but LM probably don’t spawn deeper than 10 ft often

Wow I know that was hard to share, your Bass resource family is here for you buddy!

Our dog was begging for someone’s pizza on an outdoor patio of a restaurant one time so my fiancé jerked on the leash to send a message. Well ole bo, being the beagle/basset that he is, let out quite a “booooooooooo!” And let me tell you, everyone on that patio immediately became extremely concerned with our dogs well being and pretty much carried on like we should be locked up for animal cruelty. So in the eyes of the public, discipline is cruel. I wish bo would have eaten their whole pizza and puked it onto their shoes. In today’s America: dogs>people and discipline is evil and that’s the way it’s going to stay

We have those same tire chain stores in my area and they are pretty good and quick as well. Glad you got a new safer set. I’ve had my share of blown tires over the years but it is not as dramatic as you might think, it shouldn’t cause anything to flip over in any way. It’s more like a flopping sound and you just pull over safely And change the tire

Soldering Certainly improved my connections in my boat. Also you can buy a new plugs and new receptacles fairly easy

I’m sure a canoe would basically be a sailboat in Kansas anyway. I might actually enter some tournaments if they allowed canoes. Or maybe I could use the fiancé’s kayak, mine would all get laughed out of the competition

Just use a canoe instead!

We have experimented with dark chocolate kit kat in substitute of the graham crackers. Also used chocolate crackers and even chocolate oranges a few times

They won’t eat a hole in your tackle box either

That tent is sight to behold. We used to use PVC pipes but storms snapped them. One member of our party got a bunch of steel pipes bent to fit by a muffler shop and it holds a lot better. The tarp I think is for a row of hay bales, we fold it up and store it in a big trash can on wheels. Once assembled, it’s affectionately referred to as the silver dome

That’s awesome!!! I’ll be up that way in a couple months. We ♥️ Michigan
