Me thinks the pier fishing is going to pick up!!!!

kennyman: Sounds like he might have been fishing for Arapaima, 15ft long and up to 500lbs, lol... Here is a National Geographic video:

That is very sad news. My condolences to you and your family.

Really depends on the size of the pike, but I run a 7ft MH St.Croix along with a Shimano Calais 200 and 30lb Suffix braid. If there is a chance I might tie into a really big fish, I'll use my '8 Shimano Compre Muskie setup along with a Abu Garcia Record60 +80lb PPro.

What pound test are you running on the Stradic?

I am sure if there was a death or even a severe injury it would have been mentioned in the article. And yeah I think there should be a fine if the driver was in anyway careless..

Skein is immature eggs still attached to the membrane if I'm not mistaken.

Jesus tap dancing christ! I hope there is a hefty fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not with this hot weather, I've been chasing brookies and small bows the past few weekends...

Hey Reef, if you need someone to net the monsters you'll sure to be pulling in, let me know I'd love to wet some lines after work next week!

Huh? G-Pool this weekend? When you boys planning on going out? Need a 3rd? lol Congrats Brian!!!!! My mom and dad absolutely love being grandparents!!!! I am sure it will be the same for you.

Ahhh, I must have gotten Graham and him mixed up. I've also heard great things about Graham to.. I think either would be a great bet for anyone who wants the chance to tie into a monster. You started on with Graham not so long ago right? Some of the pics on your site are incredible!

I've been recommended by a few very well known musky vets that Jody Mills out of Orangeville Ont is a good place to start.. http://www.millsmuskyguideservice.ca/

On the local stream I fish, at dusk they start going crazy on surface bugs.. I have stayed past dark and it's definitely slowed down...

Ugh, Dave if I saw this I would be game!!! Do I need a float or noodle rod setup?

That is possibly the best looking fish I have ever laid eyes on... unreal.

Nancy: If you search the classifieds on forums.tdiclub.com, or make a post in the regional forums, you'll find some OEM steel rims for cheap. My userid on that forum is LNXGUY, so if you join up drop me a PM and I'll see if I can find you a deal! It's also a great resource for TDI owners.

My sincere condolences to his family and friends...

I thought everyone over there was just addicted to diesels Should I put a pic of my car in my sig here to? lol

Someone from corporate searching Google for keywords? sheesh.

Carp, that's some great info! I'll see if I can find information on the landowner. I wish I had been at the car when he left the note, I am sure things would have been smoothed out instantly. I don't want to be pegged as the fisherman who doesn't give a crap about other peoples property.

OEM rims all the way.. Having a cheap set of steelies with snows on them will pay for themselves in 2-3 seasons, just from the cost of swapping tires every year.

Yup, Nokians are awesome tires, I got a set of Hakka1's for my dad's '06 TDI. To bad the price has absolutely blown up in the past 2 years..

I wouldn't want to aggravate this guy/gal more then they already are, although leaving a note on MY car for him would lead to a good laugh I'm sure... I just think the whole ticket thing is a bit silly and uncalled for.

I wish MuskyMike put his brute on a scale!!!
