Mr. Fisherman caught:
2 large mouth Bass
1 very good sized Peacock Bass
1 Gar (P.U.)
1 Sunfish
We went to fishing heaven . . . Bass Pro Shop in Ft. Lauderdale . . . WoW!  They had EVERYTHING - and then some. No more Wal-Mart for me. Make less trips - buy more stuff.
I gave Mr. Fisherman his birthday present early - $50 for a new Plano tackle box, 4 new lures and a bunch of worms.
I am trying something new called a flipping tube (new to me at least) - meh - I am just not into rubber . . . except Swim Baits which I have fallen in love with.
And they had some VERY impressive reels - from $100 all the way up to $1100! (  ) We spent 2 hours there. The place was packed and this store is HUGE!.
I have my eye on a very nice Quantum reel to go with my Ugly Stick.
This is WORSE than HD movies on disc! |
Lee flippin tubes are great if you rigg them right. They will catch fish when most nothing else will. I love them, especially black/red flake. I have even rigged them backwards to get finicky fish to hit.
I went to BassPro in Springfield MS. it is paradise. It was so big that I went back the next day to finish looking around. Last of the real men stores.
I tried to warn you that fishing was addicting.
