evolution vs. jig-x
Jig X hands down no questions asked.I fish both and the evolution is not seeing outside my tackle box much at all.No offense to evolution,i just don't like that rocker on their jig. Only thing with jig x is you gotta learn another new way to tie on...not all that difficult.

Say It's Not So!
I lost 4 jobs in TX due to the company moving to mexico... :-/ I have mix feelings about this.With unemployment so high you'd think we really don't need to lose anymore jobs.We need to worry about ourselves here and not other Countrys. PS i need a no tax agreement....must be nice. :

Say It's Not So!
I'm glad i know how to make my own.My girl used to make these for a small profit...same thing but tastes much,much better.At fraction of the cost.It really ain't hard.

Prison reform?
Yeah,people said i should have know better.I guess i just wanted to believe there was some good in him.Guess i was wrong.Regardless if it was somebody else i'd do it again...just a little differently though.I still believe in second chances,but screw that up then i expect them to just stay the heck away....and i mean far,far away.I give muddy alot of credit for dealing with these kids,because i wouldn't have the patience.

Prison reform?
Here's my take,my girl's cousin was in and out of prison for thief. Saying he straighten up his life trying to get back on his feets.Well i hired him to fix our floor he told me the cost of material and i gave him the money.Needless to say i overpaid $800 as i found out he was getting the cheapest stuff he could find instead of getting us the stuff he said he would.I got ripped off hardcore...i even paid him $300 for the job on top of that.Ouch..... Do i believe in second chances i sure do....but my story has me thinking otherwise "once a criminal always a criminal"(so i'm caution about people big times).I grew up in south oak cliff a poor subdivision in Dallas,Texas.I turned out just fine.I thank God i had his guidance.Not all Christians are bad.So i don't believe if you grew up poor you will have problems in life.That's just BS and blaming it on something else or how you grew up other than taking responsibility for your own actions. Nowadays you have to be caution of people and having a record makes it harder for me to trust somebody.Sometimes you have to think and put somebody else in your shoe or vice versa.

I like casing a plug or a cat toy by my cat and reel it back in....my cat loves it and chases after it. Passes time by.My kid gets a kick out of it too,but my girl thinks i'm

Did anybody hear about this?
If there were people lining up for gas wouldn't you think the employees would have caught it in less that 1 hour and 45 minutes later? Gas mongers made billions in profit this year.This is what happens when you change the gas prices so many times.Greedy scoundrels got what was coming to them.I hope it happens more and more.Worst yet they'll just raise the prices more and more. If i didn't have to buy gas i wouldn't.

Any others here fans of cheese?
;D @ robert,For me it depends on what i'm eating.I love cheese but certain cheese almost calls for the right food to go with it otherwise it tastes awkward. Some of my favorites. cheddars Mozzarellas Gorgonzola's Americans Provolones my favorite thing to eat is peanut butter & cheese on white or wheat bread.

Christmas Theft
There's only one problem,Not everybody has the time and money to replace it.If somebody stole my kid's stuff there's no way i could replace it which means our christmas would be ruined.So to let some turd steal my family's christmas just so he can have his is BS.Fair and square if he got caught by me,he better hope i don't shoot.He's just gonna have to try a little harder next year to make things better,but DO NOT GO RUINING SOMEBODY ELSE'S. I hated Christmas growing up....some point even now i still do.I'll keep the reasons to myself though.

injurys
Only once when i was 10,casting a spincast zebco reel only to stop in midair and fly back at me.Got me in the arm. I've been lucky since then,because i yank my lures out of trees and bushes for it to come flying back at me.Hasn't struck me yet. *knocks on wood*

Is this wrong?
I once found a hot spot on crappies once,caught 40 in less than 30 minutes.I told somebody once and the word got around,next weekend that spot was picked cleaned! Found dead crappie parts all over the ground.I was mad.Did it once with my bass fishing spot,but apparently whoever tried to copy failed.They told me i lied to them which i didn't :-/.Everybody tells me oh that lake sucks for bass.I let them believe it,while i'm out there having a good old time catching smallies and LM they can travel and fish elsewhere.Now in the wintertime,you ask me for advice on that lake i couldn't tell you honest to God(i can't find them myself). There's a few guys who come over by me just to see what baits i'm using.I've found a few trying to copy,they always tell me that my baits don't work and suck. ;D Again i just nod and say "yup,yup". Most guys i meet are not C & R. So my secrets stay with me.

Recreational Angler vs. Competitive
I'm out to get away from it all...recreational fisherman is the way i like it.As soon as it starts to become a "job" I'd probably start doing it less and less.Same for tackle,i love collecting...it can be a good hobbie as well.

A message to all NON smokers
I'm an idiot...i smoke,dip(tobacco) and drink..... Want to know why i say i'm an idiot....because it's practically killing myself. I see where tyrius is coming from.It is stupid to start a bad habit. I haven't smoked or drank in 2 months though...kinda proud of that.Trying to keep drinking a holiday relaxing kinda thing.When i drink i smoke. :-/ Everybody has rights though,that i respect.

Drifting away from Senkos
Senkos rarely work for me.The fish seem to want jigs or minnow type lures more.Since i fish a heavy pressured lake and everybody fishes with worms,the bigger fish seem to be wise of it.

Favorite Jig and color for winter Bass
Mine is a 3/8 pj green pumpkin jig with a green pumpkin trailer. Although I've use every wild color imaginable i don't think it matters too much.If the action is good the fish can't resist.
