Dont know how I missed this Assa, yea typically each college will have one. Best ones in the country are normally; Florida, Alabama, EKU, Murray state, Oklahoma and Texas. The championship is always held at either Ky lake or Lake Barkley which is right next to my college and always give me an unfair advantage.

I have a list of things you could send to my house if you get a wild hair on your ass.

You see the problem is lack of necessary funds. I'm about to take the lady out on a date though.

Aha I see now, you will spend more money on a date than you will on fishing stuff. Just saying.

I got the hose that connects it to a 20lb tank, last year I used one of those heaters that goes right on top of the tank. It was way to hot and took up way to much room in there. We're going to leave the tank outside the shack this year. Way more room.

Warning: Assa dont look at the prices of these items. I dont want you to stroke out.

How well do those quantams hold up for you? I've had bad luck out of the newer models, I tried a smoke and a exo. The smoke was ok but the gears didn't last. The exo was a joke, the gears burnt up and it felt like plastic.

One word. Shimano. I fish with reels older than me quite often.

I like quantum and they have held up for me I love my smoke in a burner. I also love abu their STX is a badass reel probably wont trade that one off. TNAL I love shimano but their quality has went into the shitter lately they feel to plastic to me but it is very hard to beat their CS. Dont get me wrong I love my curado and my convergence rod combo but I cant be waiting for a new reel to show up if it breaks, I fish for Murray State and am usually pretty hard on my reels to say the least. Older shimano's well I can throw those against the barn put it back on the rod and cast it like nothing happened.

Most of mine are older, but my newer one I ordered from Japan. They sell them as Scorpions over there. Supposedly they make a better reel for the Japs because it's dishonorable to sell a better product to the Americans. I've had quite a few people comment on the range of that reel. It will toss some lures.

what is the site?[/quote]
I forget. Ordered it in 05 or 06. Apparently they don't make it any more, but it's American equivalent is the Chronarch MG[/quote]

Scorpions are a sick reel! I still throw my old curados. Show they're wear but cast like day one

It's a good morning beer. It's not a fruity flavor as in sweetness, but tart. Just got done driving to Syracuse, so i wanted something refreshing. Got a long day of sitting around tomorrow, gotta be ready

Even though you think my opinion sucks, let me know how you do! Maybe gonna get out and swing some streamers this weekend.


Lots of fish being caught, just not by me. Most people were slinging buggers and doing well. I am not a great fly-fisher.

You are welcome! Given the chance, try the Kosmos, or wild hare pale ale.

They are nice. I get about 4.5 hours out of one cylidner on HI. Shack is roasty toasty, but it is well insulated.

Good purchase.
