  1. I'd stick with the 6:1 - that seems to be the prevalent gear ratio for cranks. I got a 6.3:1 Fuego CT as a B-Day prezzie from my wishlist - specifically for cranks.
  2. If Dobyns is included in the TW 20% Black Friday sales - then the Fury 705CB would be $95...that's the one I'm looking at for my cranking rod.
  3. Cabelas has free shipping - no minimum purchase - today only.
  4. He also put it up on his Facebook - and once it's on the 'net, it's forever...thank you Internet Archive.
  5. I looked up info - It's Shryock - and he's tossing digs at his own brother with that comment. Someone to NOT follow.
  6. Which was a dud anyway cause the fuse was too wet to ignite.
  7. I don't have an issue with it - the ones I post are one's I find from a Google Search...so they're not mine to begin with.
  8. Well, I DID take my Behind-the-wheel training in Northern MN during the winter - so I learned to drive in...crap...like that.
  9. I particularly remember that one because I had to get into work all three days of that weekend, 22 miles each way, roads closed all over the place, even snowplows in the ditch, and I was driving a RWD Sedan.
  10. Which is why I told my Mother-in-law right after I married that I would NOT be visiting between May and October - she lived in Boca at the time.
  11. I just think back to '91 when we got 30" of snow over the Halloween weekend. Compared to that, a white Thanksgiving isn't that bad.
  12. We had some 40s lately too - last week, Emerald Lake was 90% iced over, this morning it was 30% iced over. But we got winter storm warnings with up to 15" of snow predicted for tonight through tomorrown with colder weather following.
  13. Only time I use swivels is with inline-spinners.
  14. Now do it with both age, trifocals and only one eye. (ya, that's me)
  15. Ya - a separate deal each day. Kind of like their normal 'Daily Special', but more exclusive items. Don't remember exactly when that starts, but they also have a special on their gift cards during that time.
  16. Black Friday - TW usually has a 20% off sale...I've already got my wishlist figured out for it.
  17. My budget for a cranking rod is $125 max - so it'd be a Tatula-XT or a Fury as best bets.
  18. So does that mean I should bypass a Mojo Glass CB rod at the discount and just go with my first choice which was a Tatula XT - which is the better rod?
  19. Not a purchase - B-Day prezzies! Fuego CT-H (6.3:1) - new crank reel Bass-themed gaiters (one spread out to show the pattern)
  20. You don't really meet him...per-se, but his presence is felt most strongly (usually in your bank account) when visiting sites like Tackle Warehouse.
  21. It's a terminal condition with only one treatment... Go out and fish.
  22. Part of it is thumb practice, part of it is brakes. I also set my tension for just a bit of side-play, and between the brakes and the thumb, I rarely have a backlash - maybe once or twice a trip, and they're usually cleared in a minute or two.
  23. 6'6" or 7' are my preferred lengths. I have one 6' now, but it's being replaced this winter with a 7'.
  24. I've crunched my numbers - if I don't get the Mojo, then I have to back down to something like a Tatula-XT
