Good deal!

Braid, Braid, maybe some braid! Just my $0.02!

How about that! All the way to the All Star break and still in First. Life is good! Hand me a Bratwurst!

Too stupid for pictures, but still running slow!

I lived in SE Wisconsin for quite a few years and the same lures seem to work down here too. I did have a couple of Mepps spinners go on strike though. They wanted $20.00 a cast!

They have some at BPS for about $30 if I remember what I paid for mine. You could choose Brown or grey lenses and the magnification was available in numerous strengths with each color. Reasonable, good enough quality and available at the eyewear counter.

Most people who have tried them love email! KrisHNan will be along shortly as the President is one of his favorites. Listen to that man too!

Thanks JT, James broke right into his "Valley Boy" accent. Hysterical! Nothing personal James, just funny the way you reacted!

Has anyone been using this thing called a Hybrid bait. I like it. I am not very literate cut/paste while on my tablet so I can't do that right now. The flexibility is GREAT in this idiot's opinion. I have heard no one mention them so I thought I'd ask.

This will be an enjoyable season sir! You will hear from my wife the Packer Backer and I again! Should be a blast! It's good to meet others who have a sense of Humor.

Well, you and my daughter are at least loyal! Gotta take some ribbing! At least this year you have a qb and a reason for hope! Good luck!

Well I feel bad. I don't have a p picture to post like Bull and 12pound. Been a rough day!

Did someone mention the Cowgirls?

Whatever you do, whatever branch you are in, please be careful. Thank you for your service!

Well, I am not one to tell you what to do, and I cannot! However, since I happen to have a little experience in this area I suggest you keep your boat, and stay out of debt because you never know when your next set of PCS order is coming. From experience I will also suggest you stay out of debt because wives divorce young servicemen from time to time. Just sayin!

That is just awesome! ThAt video should get everyone out fishing with a kid! I was out with granddaughter on Tuesday and we got skunked. Had a good time and a lot of laughs though!

Are you kidding? I'm not intending to be rude, but, there have got to be some fresh fish markets in your area!

Good looking old girl!

Just my $0.02! You said you like your boat! As A-Jay said, right now it may feel like a payment to fix all the pesky stuff. But, you like your boat! Your location puzzles me though (Michigan OR Arizona). It makes a world of f difference in terms of fishing! Choices might be: 1) If you live in Arizona you might entertain finding a good boat mechanic, make a single payment and have him go through it thoroughly. Sure you lose few days on the water but, what the beck, you fish year round in AZ! 2) If Michigan is real I would offer the same advice because you really like being out of debt AND you like your boat! Like I said, just my two cents. Just one bit of advice, if you want the maintenance done quicker buy a whole pump, not a cartridge! Best of luck!

You will need to try several to see what feels best to you as we all cast and control differently. I and fond of Power Pro and 832. Depends on the weight. BTW, Welcome to the forum. You will get a variety of responses to almost any question here. You can be sure that they will all be winning approaches to a situation for that angler. You'll find your way! Glad you're here!

Awesome!! Thank you donating your time, funds and talents to make that young man's day special!

Have to be low, them beef cows is heavy! Gonna have to mount it on my Medium Heavy Ram 2500 with a Medium Fast bumper too!

Gentlemen, Thank you all for your input and suggestions. Next week I'll be heading to the MOPAR NATIONALS in Carlisle PA to dispose of all my available currency. The wife and I have become interested in a 1969 Dodge Dart GTS resto mod that needs some parts. I am replacing the F & R suspension kin so it handles like a modern car. Putting a 512 low compression stroker in it with an auto. Sorry, rattling on about my other toy, but I will buy a top as soon as the bank recovers!

Trust me, you are NOT the first to point that out!

CybrSlydr - Can you imagine the braid size discussions we're about to have? Does Daiwa make a 12,000 pound winch yet?
