Didn't have the money at the time. Thoughts are if I get the spool now I can put flouro on it and leave the citica spool with yozuri hybrid. I can switch between the two as necessary.

Been thinking of doing the spool swap and adding the drive shaft bearing to my Citica. Wondering were is a good place to buy the spool, can you only get them thru Shimano? My internet searches are not coming up with anything.

Pretty stupid when you look back and see how Mir was getting beat to a pulp in both prior matches. Got saved by the ref in the first one.

Vacation Rentals By Owner, its a website.

I have two, a 7ft MH Extreme Trigger, and a 6ft 9in ProLite finesse. Both of them have performed well, I added a balancing kit to the MH but haven't been able to try it out yet.

The one thing to remember about numbers, the game is a lot different now then when Gretzky and Mario played. Point totals will never be as high as they used to be unless they change the rules, especially in regards to goalie equipment.

Thanks Dan...we will be just fine, gas grill to cook on, plenty of candles for light and 3 Italian Greyhounds for heat under the covers......

We are at 30 inches and its over for us. Bad part is still no electric, going to get cold to tonight only about 60 inside now. Temps supposed to go single digits outside tonight....

At this point have 28 inches with a few hours of snow left and no power....

The poll is getting a lot of looks but not many people voting. Only 16 votes saying they are coming, will be a great trip with some great people. I know its early but a little disappointing not seeing a lot more votes to go to Pickwick

those things are too shiny , i like a stealth approach to punching and flipping . i only like painted or dull lead weights . chrome or gold i would think would spook fish when you drop in on them . plus those things are WAAAY too expensive ..... Was at a recent fishing seminar were a discussion about punching mats was held with a tourning pro and a local guide. One thing both said is they use unpainted lead and will shine them up because they want a little flash as the bait drops. Its a reaction strike so this helps the fish find the bait and make the quick decision to bite.

I will be there, it will be my first BR roadtrip, can't wait!!

My best results are spraying it several times as I spool a reel, then respray the night before trip. Have been very happy with the results when I do this.

you will find a wide variety or answers for this question but here goes: Rod - 7ft M or MH: Vendetta 7ft M or MH Bucco BPS Carbonlite or Extreme Reels: BPS Extreme Revo S Shimano Citica Any combination of these will work well for you. Some people have their likes/dislikes for some of them but they will serve you well. With modern 2 piece rods there is not enough difference for a weekend angler to notice, go with what feels good to you at a decent price.

My first guess would be the power supply, but if the computer turns on but doesn't display anything odds are its the motherboard.

baitcast or spinning?

Does anything show up on the monitor at all?

Oh I don't expect it to be a problem at all, just putting it out for anyone looking.

Just confirmed I have no one in my cabin yet, which means I have 3 beds open. If anyone needs a place to stay left me know.

Being in Maryland the shotgun if probably the best bet, the handgun laws don't favor the legal owner. Also, hopefully it never is needed as protection but make sure its your last resort to shoot the intruder. You can still get charged if you could have done something else, like lock yourself in a different room or run.

Not much, got out yesterday for a short time, 7 bass total, no size though. Biggest was a 13in smallie....

I have a cabin, right now I know Sharkbite is staying with me. Had two others talking about sharing my cabin but haven't heard a definite answer. I will post when I know for sure if I have openings.

Joined a local club, Fish On Bass Anglers, and for the first time ever going to fish a couple tourneys this year. Went to the monthly meeting last Wednesday, barely got thru the door before guys started introducing themselves, made the newbie feel welcome. Now just have to get my stuff together and made a decent showing. Almost all of the the tourney are held at places I have never been. I know I have a lot to learn but should be a lot of fun doing it. Thanks to RockvilleMDAngler for helping me with questions about the club and how to start getting prepared.

1. Lake fishing (grew up on river smallies) 2. Deeper water 3. Determining a pattern if its not what I was expecting. Somewhat tied to #2.

hmmm....the second name looks familiar...... ;D
