    *note to self* Never make spouse mad
  2. I have the Accurist performance tuned one and i love mine.I had to get rid of that factory grease that was in it and now it's my crankbait reel. I have no problems tossing a 1/4 oz crank or jerkbait on the reel.I hated it when i first got it,but it grew on me.Guess i just had some doubts on it at first.
  3. 52 in a 35? dude,you were flying! Well things changed in 15 years...might not be so bad to learn something you didn't know. I took a driving class voluntary just so i can brush up on anything new.Plus because i did that it dropped my insurance by $10 every month.Look as it as a good thing....you just might learn something.
  4. I just seen another one on ebay just like that one but seller says it's a 100B.Is there a different color version between the 100's and 200's as far as the B version goes?
  5. 4# Largemouth Ford lake 2 1/2# smallmouth also ford lake This year i haven't caught anything over 2# Poopy year this is....
  6. I agree....I can't figure out why another forum couldn't take this tone. C&R or keep and eat...doesn't bother me.I don't think anybody could have said it better than lknbassman did. The only thing that bothers me is people running up to me on every single catch trying to convince them to give them my catches.I've gotten to the point where i really don't want to go fishing until i find myself a boat or someplace nobody else goes to.
  7. I have only one speeding ticket on my belt...43 in a 35....only problem was i didn't know the speed limit in that area....so i tried to stay in the 40 MPH(so much for my dad's advice). $135 it cost me. So now i drive 35 mph until i find a sign for the speed limit for the road.I can't tell you how many people get ticked off driving behind me... ;D
  8. Yup,i turned a day older today...kinda cool we both got the same birth date.Although i'm 8 years younger than you. ;D
  9. I hated it....it split like a banana.
  10. I just recently picked up the book by Dr. Keith Jones "knowing bass".I'm not gonna lie this whole this is new.As stated it says worm extract is the best to use.But who does make it? It almost made me want to somehow extract bloodworms into a scent....
  11. I plan to get one....just not right when they are released.Gonna go with the slower model for cranking.Pretty sure i'm gonna be throwing the reel on a 7'2" Parabolic carrot stick.
  12. Check ebay...Only place i know of. Last time i seen one of these were at gander mountains here.That thing was small! 2" like you mentioned.
  13. i agree....i know a lady that got bit by one,she didn't think anything of it till it was too late.She could put her whole fist inside her left bottom muscle part of her leg.I seriously freaked out when i saw it.They had to take parts of fat and skin to cover that hole back up. *shivers thinking about it*
  14. Sometimes it makes all the difference in the world for me on certain days.
  15. Dude,try the crankbaits! Last time i went down to TX. I spend a pretty good amount on these cranks.H20 has really impressed me.Too bad there isn't an Academy sport store here.Can't even order them online. Bad part is i put them on the credit card...still paying for that credit card... ;D....bad,bad decision on my part.
  16. Laugh if you want....i used to put my spool in a bucket of water(label facing up) and reel it in that way. I've never had line jump off my spinning reels doing this.
  17. Happy belated B-day!

    I'm a bit shocked....Didn't think he's be going that soon.
  19. Most folks say anything that is a medium or medium/heavy with a fast tip is an all around rod.Most also perfer somewhere between a 6'6"-7' rod.
  20. I like that idea....If he says it's something special, proposal is probably coming.If he says just to get out and have fun then it's just a trip to get out and unwind. I wish the girls i dated took me somewhere... ;D
  21. A relationship won't work without compromise. Seriously,if my girl hid my stuff...i'm kicking her out the door. Sure i may get yelled at once in a grand while,but usually i'm pretty good at letting her know i want something and if we have extra money(bills paid off).She buys her little things too.
  22. That right there isn't a lie.....Cavitron buzzbaits impress me big times. probably one of the faster buzzbaits that can get up on plane that i have. However up here the favorite colors are white/chartreuses with gold blade.
  23. Ditto,i use that bullfrog spray as well...I once forgot it i went all the way back home to put some on.I'm extremely paranoid about it.I was down in Texas and i caught a mild case of sun poisoning on my head.Lesson well learned! If anything bring some bait attractant with you as well..just to remove all doubts.
  24. I guess i need to find a new state....I haven't caught anything off senkos or the fat ika the last 3 trips. I fished ford lake,Belleville lake and Lake Erie...Not one bite off anything. I hate to say it,but i'm ready for Fall now.
  25. I think that might be why nobody's answering. I cheered on packers through the whole brett farve era. But let's face it,he should have stayed retired.He retired as a legend...why wreak that now? This whole thing is coming off as a joke...and what for?Like you said fans are gonna lose respect over the packers organization and farve himself. This whole thing is becoming a joke and nobody is amused by it. It's sports...i don't take anything serious anymore...it's all about the money anywhere you go now.Which is why sports don't appeal exciting to me anymore like back in the day.
