Tying a leader to braided line
Yes I have seen them especially in the Griffin Road canal and neighborhoods that are fed from the canal through culvert pipes. Never caught one, but had them cut my leader or mangle my line pretty badly.

Dream boat?
For Bass Boat, it would have to be a Bass Cat Eyra with a 250 Yamaha SHO or a Tuned Hyrotech VMax. or a Allison BasSport Pro with a Mercury Pro XS racing engine http://www.allisonboats.com/bass_boats/xb21_bassport_pro_2005.php Who says going fast and fishability don't go together!

STATE VS STATE ---Season 3 2011 ***CLOSING DATE REVISED***
I am in. Also, is a Suwannee Bass fair game? Its considered a Black Bass subspecies, so it should be along with the Spotted, Smallmouth, Redeye, Shoal, Guadalupe Bass. and Bartram's I am considering targeting them on a trip up in N. Florida the official state record is 3.89 lbs, and my old college roommate says he can put me on them in the 2-3lb range, so if he ain't fibbing then give me the TROPHY boys!

Regulators push 20% down payments on mortgages
Well if he is left broke after the 20% down he doesnt need to be buying that 2nd home then. Sound like the bank did the correct thing. We dont know how much he owes on the 1st house payment per month, his income, if he has other dept but the bank must and made the call. Just from the highlighted statement have to agree with bank. Last score of mine I checked was 830 I could put %30 on a 300K house but the monthly payment and property taxes for another house would bankrupt me. Prop taxes on 300K here is $9000/y Best case scenario for me would be that he makes all his payments and then defaults at the end of the 4th year, that way I get the house back and can resell it.

Regulators push 20% down payments on mortgages
I just self financed a gentleman that had an excellent credit score and he had 20% down on a second vacation home. The place appraised for 310K I sold it to him for 285k. Long story short he could not get approval ANYWHERE with 20% as a secondary home and did not have anymore money, so I ended up financing for 5 years at 6.25% adjustable after 5. Point is that if even people with excellent credit cannot get financing the housing market will be awash in inventory and housing needs to come down even more. This is was in Florida of course, not sure about California and other states. How is it on the left coast Redline?

Quantum sucks!!! Wait does it? KVD uses their stuff
Quantum, last experience I had was with a Cabo spinning reel, which I liked until the bail started failing. I believe it was magnetic. Anyway, sent it back to Quantum and they replaced it and within a few months had same issue, sent it back again and SOLD it. Quantum is no Shimano or Daiwa or at least the limited models I have tried, but heck if KVD can use them they are good. Wonder how often they replace his reels.

car vs bicycles
If I were judge I would sentence him to ride a bike at a slow pace while being plowed from behind with his vehicle at the speed of reported impact and the then do it forty more times.

How will gas prices effect your fishing.....
Shouldn't really effect me since I am only out 1-3 days a week, and I bought ProShares Ultra Oil & Gas (DIG)as a hedge to what I pay at the pump. I figure the just about every time gas goes up so does share price of gas and oil producing companies, so I buy into the profits. Have done this 2-3x during gas price hikes and have about broken even if not come up on top. It would be a different story if I was out consistently more than 2-3 days a week though and the Libya Black Swan event really helped my hedge.

Buying Questions
Buy a used boat in like new condition, its just about the smartest decision financially you could ever make. As stated before keep searching and saving and you'll be one of the few guys that can say "I am not upside down" or "I own my boat outright." The fact that you saved $5k before 18 tells me you have fiscal discipline so take it a step- further and see if you can save a bit more and buy a nice USED BOAT!
