  1. Promised to show pics, here it is. Lowe Stinger 175 pro. It's sitting in Indiana, wife and I pick it up next Thursday.
  2. Truly a gem, great find.
  3. Nothing pains me more than loosing man's best friend, nothing. Sorry for your loss.
  4. Well tried that suggestion. Now I have a lisp and struggling with words that start with the letter R........bad advice.
  5. I did drywall finishing down in the city, early 90's..... gotta have at least 3 knives, one being a large joint knife. If it turns out rough, use flat paint as it doesn't show imperfections like semi- gloss.
  6. Checked, only used 40 %. I'll change my SB pick and see what happens.
  7. I can no longer show pictures. When I hit " add files" nothing, nada , arrivederci. Tried logging out and back in. What's going on ? Why can't I play too ? ?

    I lose confidence in a tore up bait so it's not on the hook long enough for me to make a legitimate claim.
  9. It's definitely skunk love season, the roads around here are littered with them. Keep your heater set on recycle ?
  10. Agree, if it's a blowout, it'll be Eagles.
  11. This is a rough crowd ?. Eagles 31 KC 27
  12. Stayed with the stock 60 hp Mercury. Word is, the 75 hp only gained 3 mph over the 60 yet a $1500 upgrade. That equates to $500 per mph. ?
  13. I'm a creature of habit and always seem to catch my biggest fish of the year during early pre-spawn....... I'll be throwing swim jigs as usual.
  14. I can certainly relate to this, early 90's though. 1 child in daycare, another child in kindergarten, building a house and working 6 - 10 hr days and wife starting her own business, wheeeew........ zero fishing. We do what we gotta do, hang in there.

    Welcome to Bass Resources.
  16. I put a deposit down on a 2022 Lowe Stinger 175 at a dealership in Indiana " the boat place". No place in VA could come close in price even after getting double taxed VA - IN.
  17. Trailers with foldable tounges will save a couple of feet on length.
  18. I don't have pictures yet because I have to run out to Indiana to get the boat.....10 hours 1 way. Wife wants to go but said she can't tie up 2 days until the 16th.........so getting boat the 17th. Lol
  19. And I have great empathy for the Mavericks ?
  20. I may have stepped over the line with an early post but sarcasm was easily detected ?
  21. I've never kept a log but can safely say that during the time we were raising our children, fishing fell off significantly. Fast forward and since I've retired, I'm averaging 3 days per week from mid March until early November. Wife and I also spent quite a bit of the summer months in Air bnb's on various lakes where I'll fish everyday, several times a day. 25 times for a working man would be great ?
  22. I'm a fisherman who gets skunked in the winter time, quite often. I simply don't catch until water temps climb into the 50's. But when I do start catching fish, it's always on a swim jigs reeled very slow. Yes, I always trim the skirts to just below the bend in hook.
  23. I pitch in standing timber late winter in deep water, clear. Seems like every fish I catch is in the upper water column....... Orange and brown here. Also like to free-fall swimbaits on an underspin.
  24. Protocol must be followed , ammended Rights have to be considered. Someone may have become offended if the projectile fired was made of lead. The mission itself must have a proper title and voted apon...... could take years.
  25. QBs with rings will always trump those without, just the way it is. Example: you never hear Jim Kelly's name mention and he's been to 4 SB's.
