jkarol24 Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 i cannot justify buying a boat during college, gotta pay insurance, gas, tags I figure that i will be using it for all tourneys this summer and through college via college tournaments so its well worth the investment. Gives me an advantage over alot of guys my age who can absolutely be a great fisherman without a boat, but dont learn the boating aspect of it. And after all the tags and insurance, i figure i've got about 3k invested. Im putting alot of work into the boat and will easily get back what i put in. Does it matter? Couldnt agree more. Betcha any pro could win with a zebco, just have more headaches.... Ultimatly, the fisherman casts the lure, not the rod and reel by itself. Quote

buzzfrog Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 i was randomly searching the tackle threads, to much time and gotta laugh, i know i am the new guy on here but man O man, i wouldn't pay more than 500 for a combo, let alone 1500, if i was pro and made a living bassfishing then yea i would, well if i was a pro i'd have a sponser to make my own rod, and then probablly get that for free..... very entertaining thread.. and before i was hardcore bass fishing zebco 33 platiun pulled em in for me, sounds like someone has gota coplex and needs nice stuff..

scrutch Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 From what i hear getting married cures most peoples fishing addiction.. Nope. It just takes a little finesse. Quote
buzzfrog Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Nope. It just takes a little finesse. like professionly lieing lol or getting your lady into the sport.. though the monkey seems to only be male orienated lol :crankbait: Quote
scrutch Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 like professionly lieing lol or getting your lady into the sport.. though the monkey seems to only be male orienated lol :crankbait: I see it more like fishing itself. Imagine it with me...blue bird skies, after a massive cold front, gin clear water, everything is stacked against you. Do you go out and power fish? ("I'm going fishing and I don't care what you say") Nope. You slow down, you apply some finesse techniques. You gotta wiggle your little worm right in front of her face. Give her what she wants, make her happy. Even if it is killing you to be patient, be patient, talk nice, lovingly. Make her feel that she's more important than anything. Just like trying to seduce a double digit big girl with lockjaw. I've found that you have to be genuine too. They can see through that fake scharade like a twenty pounder looking at a beetle spin. Happy wife, happy life. Simple. Quote
