  1. My brother is the local mushroom guru and said these were edible......forget what he called them but they were very good.
  2. For every honest person , there are likely a dozen thieves......I'll stick to my roots, honesty. Great post by the way.
  3. It's actually a center console.
  4. Heredity may play a roll here. I workout 30 minutes every morning " strength training " , 13 - 15 reps and can't achieve that level of definition. Heavy weight, low reps to failure is not my cup of tea. Keep it up ?
  5. This old man that I've fished with for over 40 years calls me and said come look at my boat. It's a 1994 Cheetah in excellent condition with a 150 Mariner......I've never heard of this boat. The good news is, I'll be fishing from it frequently.
  6. I believe professionals are the elite at any sport. There has to be a driving force and a considerable level of success to be considered a professional. There are many accomplished fisherman here that on a given day are lights out. Pro's dedicate their lives and have a natural gift of awareness. Are there any Tom Bradys here? Husain Bolts? Dale Earnhardt's? Tiger woods? Not a person in the world going sponsor me to fish......not for long anyway.
  7. Thought I'd share this funny little story with you fine folks, nothing to do with fish. I check various resources weekly for pellets for my Airguns, yes there's even a pellet shortage. My preferred pellet shows up on Amazon so I instantly submit an order. Well, they show up today and to my surprise the order got doubled up somehow as I received twice what I originally ordered but was not charged. So I call customer service and let them know of their error. The very nice lady laughed and asked what I wanted her to do. I said well, I don't want to steal and to charge my account for extra tins of pellets. She laughed again and said it's no longer stealing as I'm gifting them to you.
  8. 20 years ago I was building cabinets that particular day, cherry to my recollection.....only resource I could over was prayer.
  9. Defensive lines overwhelming offensive lines in both cases. Like Madden use to say......games are won in the trenches. Lol
  10. Oh wow, I'm another one that didn't realize he was struggling with cancer. Been praying for Jimmy Houston's wife and will add Aaron as well. Stuff is the Devil. Lost mom and dad to it.
  11. Hee-Haw was watched by everyone in the home growing up. Mom had a crush on Roy Clark. Lol
  12. Hmmm have to think about this one......not sure what I think about driving to the lake. Lol I'm left brain dominant so already forget.
  13. I worked with a guy years ago that was very particular with his truck. It was tricked out with lots of after market and custom 2-tone paint job, beautiful truck. He was on his way to work during deer season, it was doe day and hunters were performing a drive in a large cornfield. My coworker drove by the cornfield at an inopportune time as 4 does running at full speed rammed into the side of his truck......4 big dents about a foot apart. He was absolutely livid.
  14. Not pulling a boat but every member of our family has hit a deer and I've hit a bear and coyote. Keep insurance on speed dial.
  15. From a seated position, it's left hand on left side of boat and right hand on right side of boat. It's easier for me to Torque the fish to my hand without reaching over the rod.
  16. Where are you from......division of motor vehicles? Lol It's been incredibly humid here in VA this summer and hot.
  17. I like Zoom 10" magnum with 5.0 hook......it certainly slows things down a bit.
  18. Tequila works better.
  19. Wife just informed me that we're headed to Biltmore, Cherokee then to the Smokies somewhere. Not sure what we're doing but she requested I not fish. Lol
  20. That doe was relentless, crazy. If every deer was that aggressive, I'd quit hunting.
  21. Was recently fishing a lake in WV with multiple wake zones due to large resort. Watched several boaters at full speed inside wake zones and slow down outside of it. The signs even said entering and exiting. It was frustrating because I was deliberately fishing inside of wake zones.
  22. I fish very clear water and have actually looked down and watched big bass tangle and break line in gnarly wood. We all know that that's where they are but you gotta draw the line. Imo 3 or 4 trees piled up and you cast in the middle, chances are the bass breaks free.
  23. Just yesterday I broke a leader off and quickly re tied with straight braid, 15# power pro. The line is so limp it wraps the hook in a unique way, very annoying so put my readers on and tied on another Flouro leader.
