Super User Raul Posted July 15, 2005 Super User Posted July 15, 2005 When you no longer carry a tacklebox into the boat, the boat is your tacklebox. When Johnny Morris and Dick Cabela send you personally signed Christams cards every year. When your idea of getting a higher education is attending to The Bassmasters University. When your boat, towing vehicle and your gear is worth more than your house. When your boat and towing vehicle are fully paid but your house is on a third mortgage. When your boat and towing vehicle are brand new but your house is 40 years old. When your garden looks like the Amazon jungle. When you practice casting, flipping and pitching in that jungle that used to be your garden. When you have spend 1000 dollars in a rod and reel but you don 't spend 40 dollars in a pair of trousers because they are too expensive. When you can 't understand why your wife spends money purchasing garbage like clothes and shoes. When it 's nearly impossible to get you out of bed to go to work but on weekends you get up at 4:00 AM. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted July 15, 2005 Super User Posted July 15, 2005 When your wife comes down to show you her new outfit, dark gold capris and a white blouse with gold and silver patterned glitter, deep red lips and dangling earings and you say: Woman, you'd make a great lure... And mean it. Quote
Super User Raul Posted July 15, 2005 Author Super User Posted July 15, 2005 When you tell your family physician to take a hike when he tells that you can no longer fish because you have developed a severe case of skin cancer due to sun exposure and your face is falling appart in pieces. Quote

fatbass Posted July 15, 2005 Posted July 15, 2005 the MRI shows acute arthritis in your shoulder and as you rest uncomfortably with the shoulder iced you are thinking of what you are gonna try tomorrow. Quote
Wabassin Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 Your gear alone = the price of your fiberglass bass boat. Buying 40 lucky crafts seems reasonable but you cant even think of fixing your tow rig so its brakes work and rely on the trailer brakes cause your boat and trailer cost more than your truck and house combined.

abelfisher Posted July 16, 2005 Posted July 16, 2005 When you go to bed at 10:00 PM on friday night to try to get enough sleep so you can get up int he morning, then toss and turn all night wondering how you should attach a new body of water.....then at 2:00 Am (with no sleep) you say fire truck this! and get up...and start getting your gear in order.
