  1. First off, awesome profile pic! Second, I hear guys throwing craw colored 1/2 to 3/4 oz or chrome/blue. Me, I mostly throw 1/2 oz in chrome/bronze or chrome/blue. Ripping it through the weeds has worked for me. $0.02
  2. I'm going to invest in some cold weather gear for fishing that is waterproof.
  3. Guess I'm in the minority here. There's no such thing as a sick day where I work. And I don't see my employer taking it too well either if he caught me 1) lying 2) not showing up. I'll save fishing for my scheduled off days.
  4. I wouldn't get discouraged. There's a ton of conversations that are way over my head! But I do learn a lot of useful stuff. Like guys using split shots for bass fishing. I used to think you only used those with crickets when fishing for bream!
  5. I would love to go fishing today but this weather is terrible. It's raining all day and in the 40's. out of all the days this week, my off day is the coldest and nastiest. Anyhow, just venting. Hope the rest of you catch a bunch!
  6. NASCAR offended me when they brought in Toyota. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!? A TOYOTA!? "Let me tell ya something Junior...when I nail this 2.4 L four cylinder to floor, we're gonna blow his doors off. Tighten yer seatbelt. One, two, three!..." No, you've never heard that. Ever. That's what get's me about NASCAR these days.
  7. I'm not a Raiders fan but I'll pull for them if they are playing because you guys have a former Razorback in Darren McFadden. He was a beast in college but it seems like he is always hurt. Hope you guys have a good upcoming season.
  8. I told you my buddy said throw a spinnerbait today if the wind is blowing, if not go to a Zoom Speed Craw or 4" lizard. Haven't heard back to see if he had any luck. Should know tomorrow.
  9. That's it! I'm switching to F1! If only the World of Outlaws could get prime-time Sunday afternoon TV slots...
  10. From what I see on TV I like him. But then again, I like Ike and Ted Nugent...
  11. The 48 team doesn't like Bristol. Everytime I've watched I remember Jimmie nailing the wall. I did meet Chad Knaus at a movie theatre standing in line to get popcorn at Bristol one year. He's a cool dude. Spoke for a couple of minutes and went on his way. How about Denny Hamlin though!? That was a dreadful last 10 laps to watch him race around. He could NOT stay off the wall.
  12. You're right. Most of the race or wrecks were determined by tire failure. It's still not as bad as that Brickyard race a few years ago where Goodyear brought a tire that wouldn't last past 10 laps. I'd still go to Bristol just for the experience. You can and will find tickets. By the way, $25 for a ticket in Michigan? It's well worth that. I've paid 4 times that for tickets before.
  13. I guess I just had high expectations of see big wrecks and bigger tempers flare. Maybe it wasn't that bad but I expected more. I guess the wreck at Daytona in Nationwide this year was more than enough to last the entire year. Speaking of, the Nationwide race at Bristol was much better than Sunday's race for me. That Kyle Larsen kid was running down Kyle Busch and banged off his doors on the last lap. That was what I liked!
  14. Black sharpie? Can you tell any difference in the number of fish you catch with high vis versus low vis?
  15. No, "for the love of money..."
  16. Let's see how many redneck friends I have on here that share a love for NASCAR. Anyhow, the Bristol race was a snoozer for me. Not as much bent sheet metal as I'd like. I've been there several times but glad I wasn't there Sunday. I thought Joey Lagano's attempt to get "tough" with ex-teammate Hamlin was humorous at best. I'm pretty sure Hamlin could take him. With all of that said, I'm still pretty sure Bristol is/was better than the race to come at California this week. My prediction is it will be follow-the-leader. My two cents.
  17. Apparently not too many people do this. Makes me wonder...
  18. Most recent report shows temps 50-54. Jigs, A-rigs and large spinnerbaits around brush, moss and timber.
  19. I saw a pro on one of the numerous fishing shows aired over the last few years spool up some high vis yellow line then take a magic marker or some type and color the line from the hook about the length of the rod. He said this allows you to see the line at the surface and creates low visibility near your bait. Anyone ever try this? Seemed like a smart idea for watching your line run.
  20. I have several S models and like them. One model I got that I am thoroughly impressed with is the Orra SX. It's a heck of a reel and a little cheaper. I returned a Revo SX. Just like the S better.
  21. What's the reccommended split shot weight on the Bass Resource rig?
  22. I have a 17' 6" Aluminum bass boat. I fish a 40,000+ acre lake. I stay home anything 15+ mph. White capping and big swells are no fun on my lake. I figure "in like a lion, out like a lamb" for this time of year. I know there will be days this summer when I'm just praying for a 5mph gust to cool me off. My two cents.
  23. HOLY COW! Would you please teach the rest of the dead-beats of America what work ethic is? Kudos for your hard work and realizing it at such a young age.
