  1. Drive home tonight through a whiteout.
  2. Because you didn't catch it!
  3. Take a swig of Pepto-Bismol and worry about yourself. lol.
  4. Four score and 13 years ago …
  5. I know lots of dudes that had tracks in their basement/garage. I'll take this up in pm
  6. No, it was local to Rochester
  7. @JediAmoeba our hobby backgrounds have a ton of overlap. I used to be in a club that raced T-Jets exclusively.
  8. Start that up and you'll get even more people sending you reels. Ask me how I know, lol.
  9. Cafeteria trays, huh? That's a good idea. I've been breaking them down and putting subassemblies into a muffin pan. Seems the try might contain things better until they end up in the muffin pan. Btw, if you have to stop mid stream, plastic wrap the muffin pan and parts can't jump out.
  10. Humidity doesn't really get to me until around 90 F. Don't get me wrong, I like a dry, sunny, 75 F day like anyone one, but I can tolerate the heat AND the humidity.
  11. This is an interesting question that I don't recall ever being asked in the 15+ years I've been on here. As for the answer, I'll defer, lol. All I know is look for well defined seams where muddy meets clear, if possible.
  12. Four score and 16 years ago... The lone punctuation, a comma, made me laugh at this zombie thread.
  13. Hot. It's easy for me to cool off, but impossible to warm up. Some are completely the opposite, like my wife. She's a human furnace.
  14. Asked and answered already
  15. A uni works great with fluoro and is easier for some to tie.
  16. I started practicing with big gallon plastic pitcher. Now I use a coffee mug. I still practice every spring and I've been using casting gear for 40 years. Catt's advice to put your targets in some kind of cover or obstacle is spot on.
  17. Three things: stop backlashing try mono in a heavier size work on your knot tying
  18. I use both MXF and MLXF for drop shot. It all depends on the weight of the sinker.
  19. It's not really time on the water as much as its contiguous trips to the same water. Take a few weeks to figure out what is going on. Once you feel good about it, try another location or lake.
  20. You could see if Smooth Drags offers a quantity discount. They are a small family run operation that offers quality bearings. You want their SS bearings. Call and get all to Dawn.
  21. I use the usual suspects - fat ikas, senkos, jigs. Years ago I was skipping a sammy quite a bit. It's a high risk cast, but you get a quiet slurp from a monster, and it's worth it.
  22. lol, you been holding onto that for four years now. Feel better? 😀
  23. 70 right now, might snow later this week.
