    A reading....We live in a trailer park...so i assume an underground break can't be our responsibility? My wife is going up to the office and show our recent bills and then show them the jump.It makes no sense to us. Somebody is gonna have to come out here and find out why the sudden jump in water wastage.We don't use but 2000 gallon a month if that.

    How the heck does a water bill jump from $18.00 a month to $75 a month? In one month! We had no change in water activity...matter of fact i know we used less water this month than we did last month yet they are saying we went from 2000 gallon(water)-2000 gallon(sewer) and now they said we jumped to 6000(water)-6000(sewer) and i know for a fact there is no water leaks of any kind. I called them up and they said "everything is right" and that's what you own $75. What the heck is going on here!!! My kid has been by his grandmother house most of this month so he hasn't been taking baths here.I had a broken wrist so my showers were limited.We haven't been doing any dishes(maybe twice a week if that) and laundry is once a week and nothing big.I don't understand this.How can that meter be right?
  3. yeah that's what i thought and i was wrong,wrong,wrong.......I haven't tried the "new and improved" version of vicious if they really did improve the line or not.They pretty much lost any business with me as of right now.When something fails that bad on me i tend not to try it again. My line split on me like a banana peel 10-20 feet from the hook...never seen a line do that before.It caught my eye when i was reeling it in i notice a weird split in the line.
  4. Hopefully Road Warrior can chime in,since you are in TN as well.He probably has more helpful advice on the TN waters than i do. But tubes are not just clear water lures.You can add some rattles in there and that'll get their attention.
  5. Things like this is what is hurting this economy.There is so much competition out there for job contracts. It happens a lot at my work. We lost 3 major contracts 2 years ago,I was laid off for a whole year last year and the company is still recovering from that hit.We are getting our business back.However we lost an entire shift of people who pretty much has been out of a job with us for over 2 years.Some of them haven't even found jobs yet.
  6. I would send it in to one of the repair guys on here.They could definitely getting it casting smoothly again.
  7. I don't go over 6# on spinning rigs. No matter what you get fluorocarbon is gonna be stiff.Now i haven't tried the more expensive fluorocarbon from the Japanese market,but i always hear great reviews.But the $40 price tag per spool is something i really don't want to spend.
  8. Norton has been getting better.My computer guy recommended it to me.I told him i had bad experience in the past with Norton and he told me they made a lot of good changes.So far I've had ZERO problems with mine after i got hit by a virus from this site. Never ever use free virus protection.It's gonna bite you back in the butt sooner or later.Like dan said it'll get you "by" but you really need to invest in one. I can't stress how bad free virus downloads really are.They "miss" a lot of stuff but you won't know it till it's too late.
  9. Jigs don't suit my needs.I'm not a fan of that rocker thing. Buzzbaits don't get used often by me but the smallies seem to like the 1/8 oz version. Plastics,never tried them yet...probably will sometimes down the road. I tend to buy the best products for the lowest price.Megastrike isn't exactly the cheapest things on the market.But if i feel or see they are worth the buy by catching fish I'll look around the cost of a product for the most part.
  10. Dang,now i need to go check mine out......
  11. I don't know if you have really bad luck and picked up two spools of line with damage, or are somehow damaging the line while spooling, tying, casting, or what. I have 12 and 15# CXX on my baitcasters, and my issue occasionally is getting it to break. I think I could go to 20# and remove stumps. It is the strongest, toughest line I've used and with a little KVD Line and Lure it handles well for me. I'd be checking the line guides ands stuff if i were him. I'm quite curious how he does on another brand of line now.If he's snapping P-line...he's going to be snapping anything else as well.
  12. Great job on losing all that weight and improving your health! We miss you around here!
  13. It's on sale...That comes out of my mouth often...
  14. Kinda reminds me of a strip bar....I got to 20 seconds before i realize why am i watch this? :-[
  15. Many different brands including zoom holds certain favorite baits in my box.It's just as good as many other baits out there,but more readily available.
  16. P-Line CXX is some serious strong stuff.....Notice i said "CXX and not "CX"... ;D P-line is definitely not all bad...That's an biased opinion. :
  17. ;D Me too!
  18. Kinda reminds me of a classic car argument that still goes on even to this day. Ford vs. Chevy
  19. Ika makes it's magic by being weightless...it glides backwards.Why would you want to kill that by adding weight?
  20. Sufix siege is getting raved reviews here...I'm surprise. I haven't found a reason to shy away from Trilene XT to be honest.
  21. Trust me if they are resorted to stealing and doing this stuff...they are already going through a hard time. KARMA...Believe in it.They'll get caught sooner or later.
  22. I've known people to bend a beer bottle cap and attach a treble to the back and catch shad on up the state during their runs. I have an O'douls lure Ive yet to use. Yup,I've done it way back in the day...I forget who taught me that one.
  23. Beer cap
  24. Our cat sits like that as well....I find it an odd sitting position for a cat to be honest.
  25. Almost $100 million on one pallet!
