Darren.

Spiller is gonna take the title from Adrian Petersen this year (fingers crossed). Finally a coach (I hope) that will use him like the weapon he really is. I'm not sure Freddy should go, though! Great dual threat IF CJ is the primary from here on.

That cat is sizing you up! Very funny.

Man. I want another St. Croix. Love my newly bought Premier. Almost more than my Compre's.... Almost.

That's absolutely...heart breaking, Teal.

Yup, that was it!

It's all about catching! Nice job.

A FIVE INCH jitterbug?! Dang! Love the j'bugs, tho. Caught me some dandys in my time.

Funny you should mention the earthquake. Might've been the same one centered in VA?? I was dozing in a rocking chair when I awoke and the house was moving. Weirdest experience ever. Ever. 'Spose that could've been my "I'll never for get the time I woke up to __________" moment.

I'LL NEVER FORGET THE TIME I WOKE UP TO ___________. My youth group kidnapping me on my birthday back in the 80s... Was only asleep wearing skivvies and covered in a sheet. And they snuck in my room, awoke me and took me to breakfast. With my parents' permission. Rather embarrassing. Or the time I woke up to my dog staring me in the face. Those are the worst. Now as to what I've done to others? Heh heh heh.... Horrific situation down in FL, though. Feel awful for the family.

Floroclear from P-Line is a copolymer that is coated with fluorocarbon. It is not pure fluorocarbon thru and thru. I actually like this line a lot, and use the mist-green as my main leader material. I use Yo-Zuri Hybrid along side, as a #2 line. Got plenty of both.

Good gravy, Sam! Hampton Roads gonna get slammed if this is accurate.

Very interested in how it performs on your Stradic. I considered the line, but shied away from it. What's the diameter of the 17?

Congrats! I'm jealous! But spawn is almost here!!!!

Happy Birthday!

Geez. Sorry, but I know he's "cool" and throws a great deep ball ... but highest paid player?! Maybe I'm being too hard on him. If the Ravens felt he was worth it, who am I to argue. Now if the Bills somehow got him, I might be able to forgive the high cost. But we got Super Mario for a $120 mil!!

Welcome Adam!

I figure as much as my wife has used Groupon, they should be in great shape!! LOL

Escargot. My dad wouldn't tell me what it was until I put it in my mouth and chewed, I was 14 or 15. It looked good, so I nervously played along. It chewed like it was made of rubber. Never made it to my stomach.

It is a whimsical letter. The guy has a good attitude about things.

I do the same thing for deliveries, A-Jay. Deliveries can be a tough job and having friendly folks along the way can brighten someone's day. My personal experience was inside the major hub in Dallas back in the early 90s. Sometimes damage is done in transit as loads settle, sometimes the loader loads the truck incorrectly. Hey, people are involved, so anything can happen when the supervisor is/isn't looking. The stuff you see in the loading/unloading hubs is crazy.

Used to work for UPS as an unloader. Was tough work, especially the the loading goons from whatever state the truck came from think putting dumbbells on the top tier of boxes was a funny idea. My head didn't agree. That said, I've used both, no problems with either than I can recall. Rods, reels, line, everything has arrived unbroken so far.

I don't have many jigs, but I had some success last year. Planning to throw some more this year.

Welcome Tom!

My boys and I have enjoyed catching a few fish on originals during the years. But don't fish them much any more. Picked up some Cotton Cordell last year during the Classic. Lipless cranks are an occasional thing for me, not productive enough to throw on every outing.
