NCLifetimer Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 it sounds like you do have a problem... as i can still see the corners of the desk. You're 19, as long as your life expenses are covered buy what you want. And buying high end usually saves you in the long run, atleast thats how i justify buying high end(aka $$$) stuff Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 8, 2012 Global Moderator Posted February 8, 2012 I bought my first bass boat (Ranger 451V with a 150 merc) when I was 16 with what little money I was making working in the fishing dept. at Cabela's. Just wait until you get the boat monkey on your back, he's a lot heavier than the bait monkey Quote

Just wait until you get the boat monkey on your back, he's a lot heavier than the bait monkey No Kidding I am doing that now. Just started my first good paying job with my degree since I graduated college in 09 and am saving like crazy to buy a new truck and get me a bass boat finally. Luckily i got a 16 foot sylvan tub that can keep me on the water in the mean time. Quote
JDuncan Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 From what i hear getting married cures most peoples fishing addiction.. Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 8, 2012 Global Moderator Posted February 8, 2012 From what i hear getting married cures most peoples fishing addiction.. Someone lied to you! It just makes it worse because he's still there but you don't have any money to buy anything anymore! Quote
psuangler91 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Dude I'm 20 and I'm a gear junkie too. Here's your problem, you call yourself an addict when the word you should be using is "connoisseur"! Quote

Just wait until you get the boat monkey on your back, he's a lot heavier than the bait monkey I'm 17 and just bought my first! I got an 1984 Correct Craft 1810 Nautique (18 ft) with a 150 HP Mercury Black Max on the back with the money i've made from working full time over the summer. As well, ive been working since i was 14 and have stock piled quite the fishing collection. I've learned that lots of hard work = ability to fish hard with the stuff i want to fish. Although the work is hard, its all worth it in the end when your holding that big bass or winning your first tournament. Im proud to say that i've fiananced myself the whole way, from boat to 7 high end combos and quality tackle, and have learned some important lessons on money and hard work as well. Who knew fishing could be a life lesson! And an enjoyable one at that! Quote

Hyrule Bass Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 my high end combo worth 1500, and 1000 waste of money Quote
jkarol24 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 waste of money I have to agree. Ive got a few Revo Premiers and a few Curado E7 reels, plus some decent Powell and shimano rods. No combo over $500 total... I make up for it with the boat though! Cant justify dropping the equivalant of a college course on a fishing combo though... 1 Quote

Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted February 10, 2012 Super User Posted February 10, 2012 waste of money Not necessarily. Spend however much you want, just make sure you enjoy using it. Quote
telmomarques Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 Not necessarily. Spend however much you want, just make sure you enjoy using it. i really enjoy my japanese combo Quote
Super User smalljaw67 Posted February 10, 2012 Super User Posted February 10, 2012 i really enjoy my japanese combo JDM stuff is nice, and if you enjoy it by all means get it but for me it is too much bling. A good domestic rod that has the same level of refinement for half the cost is Zombie, check them out. The Z is too heavy, they are built like a tank but it feels like using a saltwater surf reel, most of my combos weight less that the Z does by itself and at close to 7 bills they can keep it. 1 Quote
