Thread: cockroach's

I still stand by my last post.................... this 6 foot 240 pound guy WILL hurt somebody over these things............. I rather un-hook an alligator that done snapped up my buzz bait, that stick my hand in something and come back with one of them big nasty roaches! I just shuddered!

Oh and I already had to un-hook three so far this year!:D We just got a whole bunch of them things round here now.

Looks Like An Old Strainer To Me, U Could Probaly Make One From That If You Wanted. Use What Catches Fish!!

Now i can't get this image out of my head of you gettin chased around a boat with a great big ole roach:D It's them big hairy spiders (and them little ones too) that gives me the shakes and i'm bigger than you...izzy

I can't believe some of u guys fear (hate) cockroaches. They just one of God's little creatures. You guys suffer from entomophobia. You all need some cognitive bug therapy. I knows a good bug man....haha

I'm only slightly skiddish around them 8 legged ones CP. I know a good (bugman) too. He fishes LOZ alot and is a member here:D...izzy

if I can catch more fish using cockroaches then I will use them. Looking for some to try.

Hey Izzy............. got traumatized as a kid in Chicago(Great Lakes). One of them things big enough to saddle and ride on was crawling on the basement ceiling at out "new" base house. I was OK till that son-of-a-gun TOOK OFF flying in my direction. Ain't been the same since as far as they are concerned.

Spiders ain't no big for me.........squash em and go on. But I had a Buddy one time who used to go with me snake hunting at night. He'd tote the light, me with my trusty single six. Got pretty good at hitt'n them snakes in the head, and the occasional frog too! Mitchell........ was not afraid of ANY kind of snake, man I saw him pick up with his bare hands and not stick to hold their heads down, rattlers, copperheads, true cotton-mouths....... it didn't matter if it was coiled up, mad or spitting.

But he COULD NOT STAND spiders.

One night we was going to one of the local ponds were we did our snake shooting and he was cutting a new trail and hit a spider web that covered his face........... man I heard the most highest pitch scream I ever heard and next thing I know the light is out and IT'S DARK AS PITCH......... Mitchell is the one sounding like a little girl and he's getting farther and farther away and the light is bobbing up and down at a very high rate.

I would have laughed my *SS off but it was very dark, and I didn't have a spare light. From then on I always had a flashlight in MY pocket. Man he didn't even stop at the car.

He was the only guy I ever saw that would try and cut off his arm if a spider landed on it. Guess I'm kinda that way with them God forsaken roaches.

I can find SOMETHING to catch fish with.......... and it won't be no roach!:D

Stop it your killing me hehe. I can relate, i grew up in N St. Louis and everybody had roaches not the flying ones though. I guess we got used to them. Mom used to clean and spray that Camicide daily, to no avail. I was'nt scared of spiders till about 20 years ago. My niece got bit on the inner thigh by a Brown Recluse. They literally cut a hole half the size of a baseball before it quit rotting the flesh, it was awfull looking. She had numerous skin graffs and it does'nt look to bad now. To this day i'll leave my boots if one gets on me. Hey Duane, i bet bugman could tell ya how to get some roaches, he's an exterminator buy trade...izzy
