Neighbors
For 15 years I lived next to gang hooligans ....They did every imaginable thing to tick us off. We returned the favor as well. This was in Texas growing up.Drive by shooting wasn't uncommon through the night over there.I'll say this though it was funny watching them do all kinds of stupid crap when the cops were over there.My personal favorite was watching them hold their pants up trying to run the the police.Entertaining to say the least.Somebody always got a cop ride back to jail. It went so far that they ended up putting a $10,000 hit on my head. It ain't fun when I gotta walk home with a buddy who's carrying his dad's .357 Mag. Been pretty quiet here in MI....everybody seems to keep to themselves here. If I see somebody in need of some help I won't hesitate to help them.Ain't too bad here.

my new favorite song
This is the music i despise....it ruined rap. Wanna hear real music? Type in "yonas" on facebook and d/l his tracks/albums. Ain't a whole lot of rap I listen to nowadays that's coming out,but he's still a bit underground once discovered he might to pretty well.

Which Veritas (spinning) for tubes and wacky senkos?
I would get the 6'6" M/XF for tubes and wacky. I have the 6'8" M/XF version of the powell spinning rod and it was the best decision I made with the help of a member here. I use it for exactly tubes and wacky worms. 8-)

Opinions on these spinning reels
X2! I don't know anything about the new ones though.I'm waiting for a review on them actually. I hate Daiwa's new logo.Probably won't stop me from buying for them if the reels still perform like they do.

baitcast reels
He already stated Premiers are garbage...he doesn't like them. It boggles me how much of a nice review you gave it yet so hated by him. I find it quite hard that the steez can be at the bottom of your list.Then again I never fished one.I think I need to pay a visit to steezy down in Texas...LOL

AVG 2011 update ?
I haven't found a free program yet that comes without some major bugs and problems. Since last year I'm paying for my protection now....I learned my lesson the hard way.Those free programs are not worth it.Buy the softwares and you'll get much better protection.

Good fishing wallpapers?

Where Are The Cheeseheads?

Educate me on Tube fishing
Tubes do not have to be fished that fast. I dead stick tubes a lot.

tubes? part 2
Don't get me wrong it is fun,just don't do it to think you'll save money... ;D Catching fish on something you make can be pretty good feeling. Plus these harsh winters up here in the north we gotta keep our sanity a little bit.Tackle making helps pass the time till spring.
-
how many different creatures do you carry?
It's almost all I fish with.....Creature baits are by far my favorites.65% of my tackle is probably creature baits.
-
tubes? part 2
Yeah....It's cheaper to just buy the baits oppose to making them sometimes.I'm not kidding on this part. I do it just to have the satisfaction of catching something with what I made.I can't always afford to do so.... I want to be making my own 5" worms this year. Gonna cost me $200 just to get everything set up. :-/

Something you guys might want to know

tubes? part 2
Bearsbaits.com. Injection tube molds will run you $80+ a piece. Otherwise you can do it the old fashion way and rod dip to make the tubes then cut to make the tentacles.

New fishing show on Versus
This is a good show....Thinking about ordering the DVD set.Not really a bass fishing show,but a great show nevertheless.
-
This reel will top the chart this year...
If they blow them out on sale I'll buy one....just not for $300 though. I can't see these selling well at all.
-
How do you treat your combos?
I take care of my stuff. It still gets used though,don't know how somebody can keep a reel looking brand new after years of continuous usage like that.Now that impressive. If i was a pro I'd probably be a little harder on my rods and reels too....you got to consider these guys make a living off this.It's just another tool to them.

Found the Reel!
I plead Not Guilty... ;D.

Why braid?
Dodge guy,you must not fish rocky areas.....I don't care what braid you are using...it won't work. That's the biggest downside for me..I fish rocky river systems with heavy current.It just won't work for me.Fluorocarbon or heavy mono is the only way to go. I don't care for the hook sets on braids either...too easy to rip that bait right of the fish's mouth.
