The next 4 days in my area of Indiana is 85*F, 90*F, 90*F, and 89*F. Philly shows 88, 88, 88, 91, 87... What fall transition?

I've hooked SMB in ultra clear water and have watched as other SMB tried to steal the bait out of the hooked fishes mouth while I reel it in.

I've found that a lot of spinning reels don't quite fit right on Dobyns spinning rods. I've had Shimanos, Daiwas, and Pfluegers with improper fits on Dobyns spinning rods. I don't know what the deal is.

I didn't know Gary, but I found this out in another thread. Sometimes forums and online communication doesn't accurately represent a person, so no matter how coarse I've ever been, any death of a beloved member of our society, community, or even a forum affects me deeply. I'm late here, but one is never too late to say that they're very sorry for the loss, sorrowful, and our Lord Jesus Christ will forever and always accept every prayer on behalf of another. Gary, I didn't know you, but one day, God willing, I'll see you where we're all meant to be. I pray you're having the time of your life.

I pray that he's in the loving embrace of our Lord. That's very sad.

Did we have a member pass away?

Oh wow I didn't realize he was still dealing with this. Lord have mercy.

I've actually never had gen. I'm ginerally drinking Scotch, Jameson, or craft beer. Can't blame the recipients (millennials) for receiving (participation trophies) what the others (Gin X) created.

The gineration that created the participation trophy.

If you understand what people are saying then I don't see how it matters. The whole point of language is to communicate with each other in a way we understand. This grammatical error has to be one of the most irrelevant I've seen.

How good I am at locating bass that day and putting the bait on them. Everything else is second.

I don't know anything worth sharing on pond stocking, but definitely get those turtles out of there. They can quickly wipe out a small pond.

The first 10~ days of September are awesome for me and then success plummets at some point during the 2nd week and stays awful until the 2 or 3 good October days, and then it's over.

5" Senko = weightless texas rigged on casting gear 4" Senko = weightless wacky rigged on spinning gear That's how I usually do it. Works for me.

I've found that spinning rods with identical power ratings to their casting alternative are always a little weaker. If you like the way a M powered casting rod feels and you want the spinning rod counterpart, go with MH in the spinning, etc etc.

When I decide to watch TV, sports and survivalist shows is all I watch. I'm watching one of my survivalist shows this morning and they built a fish trap out of bamboo. It's just a long tube with one opening. The idea behind it is the fish will swim inside for the bait and then they get trapped because "fish can't swim backwards" and there isn't enough room inside to turn around. Now I know for a fact that I see bass back off all the time. Whether it's backing off the bank or backing away from a bait.

People who leave trash are trash. Sorry to hear it. People leaving trash, people having big mouths, people not respecting space, and people not respecting the resource is why I don't share information with people who will fish the same waters as me. There are enough bad apples to ruin things.

Are you certain he left the trash and nobody else could have?

He's looking at a rod, not a combo. The rod will have a Black Max attached to it per the OP. I would get the SLX 7' MH/F. All the other SLX models are XF and/or H, i.e. not all purpose.

Complete disregard for NOAA information in favor of personal experience isn't getting anyone.

Oh. I was able to back up my "about" and "almost" but ok.

Got a source for that? Seems a little fishy. I'm not arguing with NOAA numbers. I'll lose.

Everything is about. If you're requiring perfection, life is disappointing, and if you're requiring 81.8375728%, it's unreasonable. https://www.wral.com/how-accurate-are-weather-forecasts/19645159/ forecast high of 80, most of the time the actual high will be between 78 and 83. Longer-range forecasts are less accurate. Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration suggests a seven-day forecast can accurately predict the weather about 80 percent of the time, and a five-day forecast can accurately predict the weather approximately 90 percent of the time. However, beyond 10 days, a forecast is only right about half the time. Beyond the numbers, the perception of the weather will never accurately match the reality of the weather. This is because forecast parameters include a good amount of probability and chance. For instance, meteorologists use percentages to describe the chance of precipitation occurring at any point you select in the area. Mathematically, the percentage comes from the confidence that precipitation will occur somewhere in the forecast area multiplied by the percent of the area that will receive measurable precipitation. Today, we often can be 100 percent confident that precipitation will occur somewhere in the forecast area. Google is available for more information. I don't argue with the scientists with my anecdotal evidence.

They're accurate from a week out 80% of the time, accurate from 5 days out 90% of the time, and accurate almost 100% of the time within 24 hours. People focus more on the wrong times than they do on the countless correct time. Similar to how business owners know that they're far more likely to receive negative reviews than positive reviews. The reason being that when someone is pleased they think nothing more, and when someone is displeased they want to make it known. Those figures aren't mine; they're actual statistics. If your local weatherman is falling outside of the acceptable norm, petition for his or her replacement.
