  1. Ask RW for knot help.. Funny, but it broke about 15 yards out. SOmeone probably found it spun up in their prop with all that line attached.
  2. Yep. It was awesome. If it had been on a spinning reel and the bail had closed it wouldn't have been so bad. It was on my Revo and about mid cast I just heard a pop and that was it.
  3. Thanx, but I only use Stren.
  4. I lost mine on the first cast. Yo Zuri line snapped mid cast and she went sailing.
  5. x2, and the hooks are garbage and bend out. Bobby sent me some for free and I still have 3 of them bend out on fish, 14" fish at that. Ask bassnajr for comfirmation of it, he saw it. The curse of the Gamakatsu. When will it end? They used to be a quality hook back in the day. I'm suprised they bent instead of just breaking like the rest of their hooks. :-?
  6. She sounds like a feature dancer at the Cadillac Lounge. "Gentleman, put your hands together, and get out those one dollar bills, for Taylor Swift!" Maybe she should sign a contract with Vivid and get some augmentation.
  7. We could just leave them tied to the mailbox like the Post Office.
  8. For some reason it's very irritating. Kind of like that eyelash in your eyeball, and then it goes down under the eyelid. What if the team you like is in another city? I know a girl who loves the Braves. Makes even less sense.
  9. What's with the "we" when referring to a professional sports team? Example, I have a friend who is a die hard Red Sox fan. It's not uncommon for me to be subjected to language such as: "We killed 'em yesterday!" "We should trade so and so." "We're gonna go all the way!" I have to repeatedly ask him when he got drafted. Catch my drift? Help me out here fellas. Some of you may know of my passion for Nitro powered Funny Cars, but when a driver I like wins I don't jump up and down and proclaim: "WE WON!!!"
  10. I love how CNN says "The world watched in horror", while I didn't waste a second of my day on this. Don't care. Sorry. In the words of the immortal Mr. T. "I ain't got time for no jibba jabba!"
  11. I hope Assassins Creed 2 doesn't suck as bad as the first one. I played it for about an hour. Waited for that game to come out forever. Big let down.
  12. Your man card has been revoked.
  13. Forecast for Southern New England: Temps 10 to 30 degrees below average. Record snowfall in some areas.
  14. I agree. When 3 came out my clan disbanded after a while. We were together for I think 4 years and played everynight, like a well oiled machine. Tom I do have a PS3.
  15. Yeah really....I'd like to see 256 people in Frostfire.... ;D HA! I miss the good old days. They really ruined that game after SOCOM 2. I don't even have the new one, it's probably crap.
  16. Wow... 256? And we complained about lag with 8 vs 8 on Socom. :-?
  17. Flair off of the tree...
  18. Pretty rad. Science is cool. 8-)
  19. Thanx all. This is pretty much what it looked like, except after dark. Another example of the terrain. It's no wonder someone dies here every year. It's about a 30 ft drop from the grass to the water.
  20. BAHAHAHAHA! If someone stops and asks if I caught anything I'll tell him "Not now chief, I'm in the ZONE!" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Fishes love my new haircut.
  21. Not only did I go out, but I went to Beavertail... alone... in the dark. 8-) Wasn't too bad, ended up picking seaweed out of my teeth this morning. Is it bad when you can't see over the next wave?
  22. When I checked my watch last night (or should I say this morning) It showed 1 AM. I had been fishing some of the most rugged terrain in the North East. Even though the moon was putting out enough lumens for me to cast a shadow, I persisted. I was at my Mecca, my sacred ground. A place that my family has been catching Striped Bass at for four generations. After 5 hours of climbing, and casting, traversing, and wading... jumping, and getting pounded by waves, my legs and arms were getting tired. It was a slow night. A full moon typically sends my expectations in the toilet, and this night wasn't much different. I had one good fish on for 5-10 seconds and then she was gone, also a few bumps but no takers. At least it was a sign. The previous night was terrible. Not even a bump. It's October after all... the time to fish is now! Well, like the saying goes: "You can't catch 'em from the couch." So, I persisted. The tide was in it's final hour and I knew my chances were growing slimmer by the minute. The time had come. "One more cast, then I'm outta here." There's something about surfcasting for Stripers. You better be ready. Don't lose focus for even a second. When I'm alone out in the surf, perched on a rock with the Atlantic doing it's best to knock me down, I'm focused on one thing: retrieving that lure in just the right way. I'm not thinking about what my wife and son are doing at home, or what bills need to be paid. I am in the zone. And that's where you need to be when the hit comes. And boy did it come from out of nowhere! A 6 inch Storm shad did the trick. After a brutal tug of war and a screaming drag, I had her by the gill plate. A quick hoist on the Boga said 19 pounds, and the markings on my rod confirmed 34 inches. A quick picture and then off into the next wave she went. I don't know for sure if it was fatigue, or adrenaline; or both, but my hands and legs were shaking! Just when you're ready to pack it in, great things can happen. Ike was right. "Never give up!" And to think, only eleven days of vacation left.
