Just picked up bass fishing and cannot get it off my mind. My friend is a die hard and has more equipment than he knows what to do with, so before I take the plunge and start investing I have been using his for this season so far. he doesn't care as he seems to enjoy me as his fishing buddy.

I'm a total noob but am here to learn. Bass fishing is the most exciting thing in my life and I've never felt this way about ANYTHING before. We have done small river, small pond fishing only.

Sucky part due the poor economy and having a family to feed and health issues with children. (one had a stroke and my wife lost her 2nd at 6 months (surgery) I'm one broke wretched. Bad time to get into a costly sport. I figure I'll pick up tackle, and just keep going from there. Slow and steady and just load up this winter.

Great board BTW!
