Close call on that one. I'd call it a toss up.

Who is Jeff Gordon?

Would that by chance be the infamous Mr Izzo?

Ah, to be young, and immortal, again. That was awesome.

Just finished the book. Looking forward to the movie. Every comment I've heard about the movie is extremely positive. This may the the one time when you can say the movie is better than the book, which is a statement I've never made.

This is a really good test, if you happen to have lake full of talking bass.

It's been about four decades since my judgement was impaired badly enough to consider such a thing.

Nobody in the Seahawks organization should even think about buying a lottery ticket anytime soon. They've used up their allotment of luck.

Can't believe I'm watching Seattle valiantly attempting to yank defeat from the toothless gums of victory.

I've built two spinning rods recently, using Rainshadow Immortal blanks. Very impressed with this product, and will certainly build more rods on these blanks. Getbitoutdoors has them, along with top shelf customer service.

I have three different sets from Cabelas, from uninsulated up to a set good for sub-zero temps. All are excellent and all were bought at about half price. Guidewear is hard to beat. I got my wife a 100mph suit on sale from BPS. it is also a fine set of rain wear. The only thing I do not like about the 100mph set is the noise it makes while moving. While wearing this suit, you couldn't sneak up on a glass of water.

FishTank, I have the same exact rod. I use mine mostly for drift fishing for trout. It says Walleye on the top of the rod where the trout can't see it, so it works just fine.

Got a cool new watch, a really nice Bose Bluetooth headphone set, and bought myself a NIB JDM Certate. Then had a good day with the grandkids.

Simple answer; NO.

If it were 20 bucks, I'd have one.

I have a Supreme and two Supreme XTs. I think the Supreme is the best bang for the buck spinning reel out there. All three of mine have been flawless.

I've had my eye on that. Be interested in your review. We throw out a lot of half bottles of wine. It would pay for itself, easily.

The Bass Resource RoadTrip is one the things I look forward to every year. Seeing some old friends, and making new ones is, always one the highlights of the year for me. Being unable to attend tho 2015 trip is killing me, but I have no choice. I get a lot of time off. My full time job is a Monday - Thursday, 32 week per year thing, but I have no vacation time. I have two personal days per academic year, and I've used those for the past 7 years during the RoadTrip. I would have to spend two days driving down, one day of fishing, than two days driving home. Not gonna happen. I can easily see a bunch of us having a couple of unofficial trips every year. We should keep that idea alive, and see what happens. Chris, on a different note, you need to go trout fishing with us again.

I made it to the 2008 RoadTrip, and haven't missed one since. I'm gonna have to miss this one. If I were retired, I could do it, but it's just too far for me to go this time.

I've never seen any in any of the ponds I fish, but I do see one every now and then behind the wheel of a pickup.

If you rip the arse out of your knickers, Kanzen is better for stitching up emergency repairs. Power Pro, on the other hand is better for sewing on buttons. Neither is worth a sick monkey's flop for fishing.

Try it out for yourself. You just may find something you like; or not. Either way, you learned something.

TD-Z or Alphas.

It's only a problem if you think it is. The rod will fish just fine.

I love it when a plan comes together.
