Calle Ocho!

I prefer the "what's the best rod for a chatterbait" threads, but yeah...

LOL. That's happened to me a couple of times with salt water fish, never with bass. It's actually fairly common with blackfish (tog).

Because yall write really funny things, fishing and knot fishing related...

I like to not fish braid whenever possible, but there are certainly times when it's the best choice, I see no reason to go lighter than 10 lb for the things I do.

The old Mazda one, absolutely! Opposite the eye...

Communicating with the thermostat eats up bandwidth and storage...

Extra strength Excedrin....

Tom Brady was just talking that nonsense.

It's gonna be ok Randy, It's gonna be ok... "Being put at a disadvantage" because of economics is and has been a thing since the beginning of time, has nothing to do with fishing. We could go the way of NASCAR with fishing restrictor plates, or now with basically everyone running the same rigs dictated by the rules, I don't like it.

If you don't send the bank account number soon, I'll have to give your share to someone else...

I'm a bot...

Not really the craziest (those usually involve cudas, sharks, and me counting my fingers with a sigh of relief when I got to 10) But memorable nonetheless, , I was testing and tuning square bills at a local pond, and I was standing at the shore in about 3 feet of really clear water with a lilipad field in front of me. There was a channel between the stalks where I could snake it around and bounce it here and there if I nudged it sideways left and right some, so I get through about a dozen, and get to a chart. black back Bagley B Flat, and it's running a tad sideways, so I give it a nudge with the needlenose, and it looks good, on the final check, I'm reeling it back through the gauntlet, and darn if a 3 1/2 or 4 lb fish doesn't start tracking it through the pads, I sped it up a bit, and it kept the distance, I stopped it 3 feet in front of me, and it sat right behind it. Didn't know what to do, and almost without thinking, I drove it down and forward, and that was the ticket, It was almost at the rod tip, so I just dragged it ashore and laughed out loud, What made it memorable was the fact that I could clearly see the whole event, and that I had just spent probably 30 or 40 minutes having done essentially the same thing through the exact 20 feet of water with very several similar lures, and this fish decided this was the place and the time.

Keep in mind that what the label says on the rod may or may not be how it fishes. Some are slightly off, and some are works of fiction.

It's all fun and games until the panda rips your face off...

I would just get a 2 piece rod instead. There is going to be a quiz as to the difference between the BMT, IRT, and IND...

Gin is the only alcohol I won't drink.

Flipping challenging, but doable, pitching, no.

I would diagnose the problem(s) before I'd go disassembling stuff. Spark, fuel, compression, electrical connections.

LMAO, I'm making a size run of Tees!

Color, the faster the retrieve the smaller the blade(s). MO? who did you annoy?...

You won't find many looking for tackle boxes, but in the hardware, and tool box realm they abound. I have a few that are the size of a 3700 with one or two partitions, I remember seeing one compartment ones at the time, but don't recall where.

There is a lure making site with all sorts of lure making and rod building things folks bought that they don't use, or the widow is trying to sell...

T rigged 4" stick bait, weightless, or with a wee bit of weight will out catch most things most days when things get tough.
