  1. Thieves are the lowest form of life. I've had nothing but positive experiences with State farm, hope you do as well.
  2. I've cleaned many bass over the years and pinchers were intact. Don't think bass are afraid of them when engulfing them from the rear......especially smallmouth.
  3. Ha ha, that McPherson is a confident kid and so is Burrow. Unbiased football fan here so just gonna sit back and enjoy the game. Have to laugh at the wife every year. She looks at teams uniforms before kickoff and makes her prediction. Which ever appeals to her.....they're winning. Lol
  4. Tough boats for sure. Bought one in 1986 and used it for years and gave it to a friend who is still using it today. I believe Ramx is the material used......no problem standing up and fishing.
  5. That's cheating! Back then 2 fish fed 5000.
  6. Our home place was only 100 yards from Stoney creek and 1 mile from the Shenandoah river. We ate fish 3 or 4 nights a week in spring and summer months and that was my job.....to catch fish. It actually got me out of pulling weeds in the garden as long as I brought fish home. Lol Don't know the exact year but know for sure it was late 60's. It wasn't until my early 20's when I bought my 1st boat and became a serious bass. Let's just call it an even 50 years that I've been fishing.
  7. Placebo is real. Lol A cheap cup of 7-11 coffee was compared to an expensive cup of Starbucks coffee and 100 people couldn't taste a difference.
  8. Don't really care who wins but will be watching. I've not faired well picking winners in the playoffs but VERY confident in picking SB winner. Lol Rams 27 Bengals 24
  9. Fish mainly clear mountain lakes and the bass are excellent to eat. I only keep a few but when I do, they go from boat to the wife's hands and then to the frying pan.
  10. Lol, forgot I said that. Man you're kinda a rough moderator. I'm picking Tennessee to win everything moving forward......women's basketball, college football, badminton. Lmao Etch this in stone.....this is a Stafford story book year, Rams win.
  11. No disrespect to the Bengals but this is an easy of a SB pick since the 85 bears.
  12. I picked 49ers so guess that means Bengals vs Rams in SB. Lol
  13. In 1992 the Buffalo Bills trailed the Houston Oilers 35 - 3 in the 3rd quarter and came back and won.......watched that playoff game. Missed that one too, predicted Warren Moon and the Oilers.
  14. Ouch, lol Hey I was 6 - 0 on 1st round and 0 - 4 on 2nd round and 0 - 1 this round. Never claimed to be a bookie. ? Predicting the winner of 49ers Rams to go to SB. Was outside splitting wood and skinning a deer.....what did you say again ? Lol
  15. Never seen Mahomes look so little in a big game. Congrats to the Bengals
  16. Yeah, Mahomes!! Going to 3 straight and winning 2.
  17. Bird replied to MacJig's topic in Fishing Tackle
    I've said this on similar threads and will say it again.....CHATTERBAITS. Piranhas won't even hit them in SA. Lol
  18. 6'6 MF Fenwick SH paired with Abu Garcia Orra SX.
  19. Big bass are like big whitetail bucks, hide in thick cover and move mainly at night. Along comes a potential mate, they get stupid. This theory is not limited to the animal kingdom though.
  20. We have one very large lake that we fish that has literally several hundreds of docks. Having both fisherman of equal ability, the guy in front will pick up the most fish 99% of the time. I'm definitely not throwing trebles around docks. What we catch the most fish on are baits that skip the best and time and time again on this particular lake it's been wacky rigged Senko's and Zoom flukes.
  21. He's certainly been an amazing athlete and without question, the G.O.A.T.
  22. The best budget reel I've owned by a mile is an Abu Garcia Orra SX. I'm still grabbing it over my more expensive reels. Check out the reviews.
  23. What I'd give for falling iguanas. All we get is falling snow and falling temps.
  24. After reading through all the posts I've come to the conclusion that we're all different.....imagine that. Lol Personalities vary drastically from person to person so couples learn to adapt or not. The ole say'n that opposites attract is false. We're both loners, both very independent, both quiet and non confrontational, both love dogs and Italian food and both eager to accomplish tasks. The only thing that sucks is she has never laughed at any of my jokes as she has ZERO sense of humor.
  25. Completely agree and completely get it.
