Got a new one in 2002 when I retired. I have had bass boats, pontoons, jon boats over the last 50 years and all have positive and negative points. This one has been really good for me considering...

If you go back in the archives, Cane Pole put one on here some time back that is condensed and really simple. Easy to print off and put in your tackle box.

Happy Birthday. And many more.

Welcome home and thanks. Been an awful long time but I still remember the good feeling of setting my feet on USA soil again. If you get around here give us a shout and we'll go wet a line.

Congrats on the new ride. I find it interesting that as I get older I find all kinds of good things about stuff I have that is 'paid for'. I'll get the hots to get a new truck or boat every so...

Congratulations guys.

There used to be a smaller version of this thing for panfish. Maybe still out there. I bought a couple four or five years back. The law in TN then was you could have only one hook on the rig. So...

Congrats. Enjoy every day. They sure grow up fast. And in the forever relevent words of Red Skelton, "God bless"

Just had a flashback. My first locator was the Lowrance 'green box'.

My grandson went through the same operation here at Vanderbilt. He is now eight and has done fine. Plays baseball and football. Scared me to death when it happened because they are so small. I...

Just wanted to say hello. Haven't been on the site since last year. The May 1 thing here got the house a little damp. About 12 to 14 inches damp. Anyway, spent the rest of the year attempting to...

I haven't been for a couple of years but Tiptonville has a liquor store. It is small and has a limited selection, but it is there.

Congrats. Good looking boy. Enjoy every minute you can. I'm spending the week with mine, spring break, and it seems like yesterday he was that size. He's 13 now. Man where does the time go?

Fishing will be my first. Used to shoot sporting clays but have not done that a lot in the past few years. Woodworking has always been a diversion but since I retired it has turned into a business....

If this is the first order you guys have gotten from Skip you will love them. I've been using them for a couple of years and they are great. Have to get a new order or two every year. I got some...

Interesting. I never thought of that. I have a couple of the zebco Bill Dance crappie reels I use for spider rigging and vertical jigging. They have a 'depth finder' or something like that they...

Just wanted to let you guys know that the river is up about 5 feet from last friday. They really have it rolling. It's not muddy at all, just a little darker than usual. Since they have been...

When I first start out I usually set my poles at different depths and if I'm using jigs use different colors. Of course as a pattern develops I will change to what is working and finally have...

Going to be in Grenada on the 5th. Otherwise.

When I was a kid we used to go gigging on the Duck for Red Horse. Used a gig that was about twice as big as a frog gig. I don't know if that is what you are talking about.

If I'm spider rigging I hook them through the lips. Used to do that fishing streams and small rivers in the current. If I'm using a float, fishing the bushes, I hook them through the back just...

Wannabe,
I am really sorry you lost your uncle. I know exactly how you feel. My dad was a hunter and a really good bird hunter and dog trainer. He didn't care much for fishing. My mother's...

I live on the river and have several that play around here all the time. Always at night. They drive the dog nuts. I have had two in the past seven years that came around in the daytime and they...

I've used baitcast reels since the old Ambassador 5000 in the 60's. I've also used spinning reels since the mitchell 300's of the 60's. Like both a lot. Never been much of a baitcast spinner...

I'm going to start fly fishing for crappie this spring. Read a post a few months back and it seemed like it would be fun. There is a guy on the board from Texas that makes awsome jigs and he makes...

I want to thank you boys for the kind words and prayers. She had a couple of really bad days. They were able to repair the valve and not replace it, which is good, but she had a really hard time...

I'm going to have to scratch this one. Mother-in-law just went into Vanderbilt for emergency heart surgery. Things kind of shakey. I'll watch for the next.

I think Grizz pretty much nailed it. I have several of the Shimano's that are 5 to 10 years old and they are great, but the new ones just don't have the 'feel'. Bought one of the preisdents last...

I should be able to get there. Count me in.

I'd be interested. Might not be able to fish them all, but most. It sounds like fun.
