    It has to exist for my comment to be made....logic ?

    I've not seen a UFO, therefore I can't make a claim that they exist...... same with Sasquatch and the abominable Snowman.
  3. Yeah Toledo is on fire right now. Wonder how Sam Rayburn is doing ?
  4. Over a lifetime I've owned more Shimano's. I'm all over the place currently. (3) Shimano (3) Lew's (2) kastking (2) Abu Garcia (2) Pflueger (1) Okuma (1) Mitchell
  5. The color on Bill of sale says Orange Riot. Salesman said it's a new color.
  6. I've always said, a 243 is a little light for Whitetail......257 minimal. Imo
  7. If all fisherman reacted the way you did, we'd all feel a little safer. ? I'm an advocate of boat safety and wish everyone would take it seriously. Life jackets on at all times on my boat and no alcohol.

    Welcome to Bass Resources ?
  9. I stand corrected..... it's 87 grain. My apologies, it was an 87 grain. His shot was an estimated 60-70 yards. Apon field dressing the deer, the bullet took out the heart and disintegrated leaving no exit and not a single drop of blood. Not sure of his powder load but it's compressed. I prefer a.308 150 grain and always see blood, lots of it.
  10. Much prefer a baitcaster for Jerkbaits. The use of spinning tackle increases the chance of line tangle with the trebles.
  11. My long time buddy who I hunt and fish with has always been about speed " hot loads " as he refers. This past hunting season he shot a very large mature Buck with a .243 120gr VMAX. Luckily it was shot in the middle of a cornfield as the deer never left a single drop of blood. Shot placement was perfectly placed behind front shoulder and if it wasn't for the deers large size and stumbling, it would have been difficult to find. I happen to locate the deer 20 yards inside of a dense thicket simply by churned up soil.
  12. I live in a rural area and have never encountered a Karen. BUT have been endlessly entertained by those who think they own the water via YouTube. A Karen can be either sex ? Correct ?
  13. Noticed the " 6 years later " but the artillery required to cut braid still applies ?
  14. Reloading the site and re-entering password fixed the issue. This allowed me to go back to my original pick..... Philly in a close one.
  15. Losing baits is all apart of the process, we're going to lose a few. I just grab another reel and keep fishing.
  16. I remember when I was young and dumb.
  17. Spinnerbait will produce the most fish, it always does.
  18. Philadelphia has the most complete team in the league. Mahomes is better than Hurts.......it makes for a good game. Imo
  19. Evansville ?
  20. These threads pop up every so often and I'm always amazed. I've been using 15# Power pro braid on all my spinning reels and 20# on all casting reels, never a dig. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but a big fish doesn't cause it. Would love to experience it just once to say I did.
  21. Another vote for Carolina Rig. Honorable mention - Chatterbait. I snagged my last Chatterbait last year and was completely OVERWHELMED with Joy.
  22. It's a 2022 from East side Marine. Lowe has a $1500 rebate on the 2022's.
  23. Hammerless lever action is sweet, and very nice looking rifles. I've had several Savage rifles and shotguns and have been impressed.
