I wonder where he got the 30-40 number from?..I must have 25 but I need
therapy...


I gave away a bunch of rods this year to friends and family or I would have
more. I'm also not counting those rods that belong to wife and kids. As to
the number of rods, I'm just comparing to the number of rods my cronies in
Yuma Bassmasters or Desert Bass own.

I wonder where he gets the $100 to change line?


Do the math. Quality line on thirty rods. I quit doing the backing thing
except on pitching and flipping rods, because I always estimat wrong and
wind up casting past my knot. To be honest I only change line on 8 - 10
rods at a time.

Maybe he got started
early for New Years Evegrin


I remember those days. I don't play on amateur night anymore.

You go thru different stages with fishing rods, reel lures ect, spend
big bucks until you realize you don't need or can't use all that much
stuff, then you down size to 6-7 rods 7-8 types of lures ( the perfect
lure hasn't been made yet) read less bass fishing magazines and just go
fishing..I am at the point where I take 3 rods on a trip. one with a duo
lock snap for cranks, spinnerbaits and topwater . one T rigged for
worms and tubes and a jig and pig rod. I can make adjustments in the
boat if necessary. I may change line 3-4 times a season. I fish for fun,
the pressure of fishing a T is not for me,,but we all must do our own
thing..JMO





I fish therefore I lie
