#8 Avoid "hard choices". When in doubt, buy them both.

#9 If you already have everything right, never mix and match: Buy the new reel to go with your new rod and visa-versa.

I must obey rule number 8

I nominate that the BAM official song is Brad Paisley's "I'm Going to Miss Her"

That has been my signature since I joined this site!!!  I must applaude such an effort to name that song the anthiem.      

Lets all rise for the playing of the BAM anthiem!!!  

And we could all subscribe to BIGGENS like al but only are way with fish on the cover ;D ;)
