  1. My wifes cousin and uncle have entered for years.

     

    They are old school jig and minnow anglers. For years Ive fished with them both, and they always were amazed at how well I knew the waters and techniques.

     

    Thats all they talked about was winning that tourny, and we had great times trying to strategize spots, etc.

     

    Day one I get a text saying I got two big fish! Contact stops there as I dont wanna jinx them.

     

    They are in second.

     

    Day two im busy with work so I couldnt make it. I told my wife "they are down 3lbs to the leaders, they need a good day and for them to have a bad day".

     

    Well I get a txt at 3 from tricia, "!!!!!"

     

    Thats it, i know they got kickers?

     

    I get the call around 430 that they had won by 4lbs!!!!

     

    Shortly after she calls me crying and tells me the bite was dead, so they took some of my advice and got lucky lol.

     

    Im just posting this because im real proud of them? all those deep v's and bass boats lost to a girl in a tinnie!!!

     

    Not that that really matters, im just really happy for them?

     

    15 grand is a decent payday!!!

  2. Ive never eaten wild mushrooms and I know im missing out. Ive always been too nervous to misidentify them.

     

    That being said, in a pinch, adding your own ingredients to a frozen pizza is something weve always done. Amazing how filling you can make one lol.

     

    I still prefer homemade pizza but it takes me at least 2 hours to make 3 big 'zas

  3. People born here, or who have taken the time to become citizens have a right to a different point of view without being told to move to another country. I don't subscribe to the "everyone should carry a gun" movement, but they have a right to their opinion and it's not up to you or me to tell them to get out.

    Yip.

     

    I want guns, others dont.

     

    No big deal. I respect all points of view

  4.  

    Ide take a ton of pics and release it, but it would be getting replicated for sure...

    Yep same here?

     

    Billm, yes, this black crappie must have been confused and though it was a largemouth?

     

    I can hardly believe a crappie got that big!

     

    My pb is 14.25" and I never weighed it but id guessunder 1.5lbs???

  5. I love what you can do with Photoshop.

    Thats one heck of a photoshop job. Not saying it isnt possible but if thats the case someone took alot of time. Just look at the tail alone

     

    A photoshopped pic usually gives up a clue or two, I see none in this pic

  6. 2 years back after travelling down the road I heard a bang, followed by a bigger bang and the sound of the trailer tongue dragging on the pavement. I tell you the ball was on, and locked. It disconnected no matter how many people tell me it couldn't be locked on.

     

    I take 15 seconds now and put down the wheel jack and raise it until I see it lift the truck. We talked about this when it happened here on OFC.

     

    It was locked. Otherwise it wouldn't have made it past the first right hand turn let alone the other 3 turns I made.

    Ive seen two americans lose really nice rigs on the 502 when they werent hitched properly. Could be wrong size hitch? Didnt chain and hit a bump too fast? Im not sure?

     

    But if im pullin any rig im doing exactly what you described.

     

    I had a uhaul come unhitched (but still chained) and it took me ALONG time to stop safely! And it was in my ex dads brand new truck! Felt like I was in special ops to stop without it smashing into the tailgate lol

     

    Turns out it was the wrong size ball and I took the guys word for it when he set it up.

     

    Coulda been nasty
