Duckett rods?
Not a big fan of those micro guides. :-/ The guides on casting rods already are small enough for me.

Spring Sales!
You need to be watching the flea market here.It's going to be hard to beat to find a new one for $145.Slightly used ones might be even selling a little cheap yet.I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on another one soon... ;D

Used Plastics - Keep or Toss?
It gets stored in a plastic plano case.They get reused again.If the plastic is really beat up and unusable by my standard it gets thrown away. You can always add scent to your baits. I must add though....I'll lose the bait during the fight or a snag for the most part...so it's rare i'll have to store that bait away. ;D

BPS online vs stores?
I go once a year to the store.Since it's in a big outlet type mall type my wife,kid and her sisters & family tag along and we make it a family outing type deal.It's a lot of fun to just walk around to look and buy stuff once in awhile.Thinking about going to the rain forest cafe' that's inside the mall for dinner.My kid loves that place. We'll be going there sometimes in March once we figure out a day everybody has off from work.

Commonly happens to me here....which is why i don't care to fish late fall/winter.I'm usually done bass fishing in November.

So Disappointed!!!
I'm quite curious exactly how much of that money is really getting used where it's suppose to be for.It's suppose to be going to schools as well....but i hear horror stories of kids that don't even have books in class. So it makes me wonder if that's even true.

So Disappointed!!!
Not me...I used to do it on my old job where everybody would pitch in $5.Only when the money pot got really big though... ;D

site sluggish?

senko setup: casting vs spinning
And i thought i was the only one.
-
This should be interesting...
Exactly..... I find smoking worst...it smells horrible.The stink sticks to you and everything you wear.Ever kiss a smoker?The taste is even in the mouth. Chew is a gross habit....As far as the brown spitting goes.However there is no stink or aftertaste from kissing.There's no filter system in chew....I've always been told it's potentially more dangerous. I'm really considering on quitting dipping soon....Hopefully i can convince myself to do so soon.

Got hit by a trojan
Any way to get my computer to stop acting slow?It's loading websites really strange. So far I cleared the cookies and history,did a hard disk scan and defrag.

Got hit by a trojan
Antivirius Live....was the name of it.Fake virus protection program that's actually a trojan.It won't let you access any of your control panel. Nasty frigging thing! It wouldn't let me run my normal virus scan or my malware/spyware scan programs.Completely shut me out. I had to run in "safe mode" and get rid of it.Had to download a certain malware software designed to get rid of it.. Took me 3 hours...... > Funny thing is this thing just pop in like an uninvited guest....I have no clue where it came from.Last place i checked out was this site,before everything froze on me.If anybody gets hit by this thing...PM me and I'll walk you through getting rid of it.

how do you guys organize your soft plastics?
I use the one from BPS and another one from Plano(from dick's sporting goods)...I like the Plano binders much,much better.You can get about 20-24 packages of baits in any one of those binders.I leave mine in the bags.

best spinning reel in 50 buck range
I've heard some good things about them too...Anyone else use this reel? Based on these reviews I think I'd pass on the Regal read these reviews for yourself Quite a few good ones but consistent bail problems. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_96661____SearchResults Hmmm. Maybe it was the Exceller I had heard good things about. It was one of the Daiwa spinning reels without the airbail. That was how it came up. The cost to replace the bail on the more expensive reels after stepping on them. (not me the guy who I heard this from) Made the Regal or maybe it was the Excelleer a good buy. Those air bail are awesome on the higher end Daiwas. This is the reason i prefer those over Shimano's spinning reels.

Unused Floro-Mono on reel - good next year??
Mine gets stored in my house in one of the spare bedrooms(out of sunlight and extreme temps).I spray a little reel magic on the night before.I never had a problem.My reels usually sit for 3-5 months unused with line on them. However i do like to cast in the back yard the day before a fishing trip to make sure it won't give me any problems.If it does I'll simply change the line.

Hope I get use to reeling left handed!
Been thinking and still thinking of buying one left hand reel for Flipping.It does make sense. Everything else i still make the switch-a-roo.Doesn't bother me one bit.I have yet to miss a bite because of switching.
