  1. My wife: "If you are going to watch jerkoff fishing again, I'm going upstairs to read my book" Me: "Ok I'll watch that silly dragons prequell thing with you, the hotties still going topless, yes?"...
  2. Why can't two Polish wire leaders walk abreast?
  3. I've had "dancers" light Cuban cigars with 100 dollar bills, but I was much younger and very drunk, what's your excuse?...
  4. Well, according to the latest physics Nobel prize winners, they don't actually reflect light at all, we just think they do...
  5. I just read a tweet that says they are the greatest thing ever...
  6. Yes, they take up valuable space where sinkers could go...
  7. Yeah, fishing line is a very small % of the raw materials, has a very healthy margin, and elastic demand, so I doubt it will have a negative (from the consumer's view point) impact on the price or availability of fluoro fishing lines.
  8. Oh yeah, unlike bass, trout do care about color most days.
  9. I don't think the fish care between gold and silver, the size, type, and combination much more important IMNSHO, that being said, gold (and tarnished copper) are my confidence colors.
  10. I too like a slower reel for ploppers, specially larger ones.
  11. Were I ever to cast a mini umbrella, I'd make one (or several) from shark wire for pennies each...
  12. Kind of like the Dodgers not in the World Series...
  13. Acme Laboratories Lance Armstrong or current resident
  14. When the pickerel fishing gets really good around here (just around the corner) they will chew through a silicone skirt in a trip or two, easy enough to replace on the fly (ha), also I like bucktail or doll's hair better than lumiflex for Esox hooks.
  15. "Mr. Gambini, are you mocking me?"...
  16. I ruined a bunch of expensive silk ties in a previous life, and I'm not the least bit sorry, wonder what she's up to... ?
  17. LOL. A while back I was working second shift with the Navy and my wife would leave the house between 0630 and 0700, sometimes earlier for work. I got into the habit of getting up early, so we could spend some time together, maybe have breakfast. (Not bragging, but the master bedroom is huge and has a cathedral ceiling, so it's the perfect place to practice pitching to 20 feet). I set up 3 targets (mug, roll of duct tape, and small Bustelo coffee can) next to the bed, and I'd just practice as we talked, I got so good, I'd go around her feet, (yes of course I set them up where she gets ready, keeps the marriage fresh... ), and once (and only once) landed it on top of her foot and in one of her shoes. I'd call the shot and start doing sillier and sillier stuff. I'd usually keep doing it for maybe 1/2 hour after she left. Really helps with the muscle memory. Of course this went on mostly in the winter and horrible weather...
  18. You may be thinking of using an original chatterbait after you break off your last Jack Hammer, wrong jig is just cats and dogs living together I think...
  19. I am bubbling in (a) with a #2 pencil as dark as I can...
  20. I just go in one of my salt water boxes, and grab a couple in the right size for whatever trailers I'm loading it with. Around here, you can only (legally) use 2 hooks, so I attach the others with a twist lock or a snap. Even when I use a full spread with hooks, I usually run everything up from center with plain hooks. That's assuming I would actually ever cast an umbrella of course...
  21. Oh no, I'm not saying that at all. What I am saying is that the industry has decided they don't want an objective measurement (and I can see from a marketing perspective why that's so). I think it would be better if there was a standard, but knowing that there isn't, the workaround is easy. It does create a perceived problem for folks with little experience, or no access to product, (n/a, n/a) but they would be in the same boat with all the misinformation that abounds.
  22. This is why I don't fish with guys from LI or Jersey anymore... Hey, how often do you guys retie with mono?...
  23. Once they get on the pre spawn they get very aggressive, and you can't take a lure away from them when they want it even with one of Nigel Tufnel's reels...
