Road To The Super Bowl 2023
Hard for me to think Purdy can come out of Philly with a win. Philly looked dominate at every position against the Giants. Will Burrow continue to dominate the Chiefs ? I believe so.

How long will the Cowboys continue with Dak ? Putting it mildly, he seems to crumble on the big stage.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
It's the most consecutive misses in history. Dallas will go for it on 4th and 15 on the 20...... it's that bad.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
Wasn't expecting Cincinnati to completely dominate in the trenches. Gotta a feeling the AFC will be dealing with Burrow for a very long time, he's just to cool not to succeed. 49ers have to win cause all their TD's count as 7 and the Cowboys only 6.

Targeting Chain Pickerel
This one particular lake I occasionally fish is well populated with Pickerel. If I'm trying to avoid them then I must avoid Jerkbaits. What's crazy is every single toothy predator " pike, musky and pickerel" that I've caught have all been on a Jerkbait.

The older I get....
When I was working, had very little tolerance for laziness. Since I'm not working, I've become somewhat lazy.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
Ha Ha, I've seen some bad calls in critical moments but don't believe any professional sport is rigged.......... unless you consider pro wrestling a sport ?. I've got..... KC 31 Jags 24 Eagles 37 Giants 17 Bills 27 Bengals 24 Cowboys 28 49ers 27

7” Senko
Never threw more than a 5" Senko. Will follow.

Are these numbers for real?
Another example if you don't mind. Been chewing tobacco since 1971 and have not lost a single tooth. My dentist asks the same question every year " are you still chewing tobacco ? " Yes Doc. " Your teeth are going to fall out " Maybe my teeth are stubborn. Idk

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
My mindset as well. No disrespect to the Niners but that cupcake schedule isn't really telling. Hard for me to imagine that Mr irrelevant will win a SB...... beating Dallas and likely winning at Philly and then winning again in the SB. Simply don't see it.

Shimano stuff
Ok let's start slow. Shimano makes good stuff.

Are these numbers for real?
I don't pay any attention to educated suit and ties, nah. My fishing partner of over 40 years should have taken on the form of an outdoor thermometer from all the mercury induced fish he's eaten........ he's still eating them at 66 and has both eyes.

Lets settle this once and for all. Whats the greatest western movie ever made?
Yep, " dieing ain't much of a living boy ".

Your Quiet Place
My wife works, I'm retired and live 1/2 mile from a state maintained road. I hear nothing until she gets home. As far as fishing is concerned, we have a secluded 7 acre farm pond that sees no fishing other than myself but the otters have worked the fish over...... still very peaceful though.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
It's the Eagles ground game that has been the problem for the Giants. Eagles overwhelmed them at the line of scrimmage both games. Not sure Hurts has to be at 100% to win this game.
-
Road To The Super Bowl 2023
Bills have another gear that they can go to and it will be needed against Cincinnati. How Dak protects the ball will determine the outcome of that game against the Niners. The 2nd half Jags against SD can beat anyone. And lastly, the Giants won't beat Philly.

Keitech Fat
Simply my favorite Amazon hook. ? Otherwise it's VMC.
-
Keitech Fat
We could have added longevity to the thread by making mention of our setups. For the 3 1/2" Keitech fats which I mostly throw, I like a Harmony 3/0 weighted 1/8 oz hook and on many occasions do so on an underspin......on spinning tackle.
-
Rod selection decision
I'm around a $200 rod and don't conform to the longer is better. Shorter produces much better casting accuracy and will produce more fish, in most cases..... perhaps a fine line.

Favorite stickbait brands, sizes, and colors?
Yamamoto Senko.

Same thing around here, signs posted on all rivers..,.... DuPont.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
I agree, if Dallas plays like that " especially Dak " they can beat Mr irrelevant and the 49ers. I had the Bucs winning because of Brady and Daks meltdown in post season. Congratulations to the Cowboys.

Swim jigs
I fish Gin clear water and prefer a very slow cadence, 3/8 is my go to. Only time I use 1oz jigs is flipping.

Fist fights...
We have family in Mobile Alabama and often visit Louisiana while we're down that way. I may stay put in Alabama ?
