It's time to go "fishing" again. Fishing for precious tidbits of info from the sharpies on this site.

The question is: Whats the best lure???

Expand your horizons. Target some freshwater fish. Goto NY for steel, ice fish, broodstocks, pike. Lots of stuff to do and it'll make you a much better saltwater angler too.

Probably the one thing you shouldn't do:fury:

Lots of recovering alchoholics on the board. Post is in bad taste.

Maintenance, strip the line off the reels, lube them put them away for the winter. In your spare time, make leaders and put them in packages for next season. Crimp some squid bars and daisey chains. Go through the tackle box and replace terminal gear your low on. Make sure that you have extra fuses for the boat. Check your battery strength, might be a good sale on batteries at the end of the year.

Does this mean no more beer forum? I kinda like drinking but wouldn't want my mentioning of it to knock someone off the wagon.

These days drinking heavily means V8 juice to get two servings of vegetables a day, pomagranate juice for anti-oxidants and Certo with grapejuice for arthritis relief!

:rotf2:

BTW - just by opening one's mouth, or by applying pressure from digits to keys that make clicking noise, you are bound to offend someone somehow.

So no, I wasn't saying Z was being offensive.

Every year I tell myself that I'm going to give all my gear a good overhaul during the winter...

Then the spring comes and I realize that I just ended up turning into a hermit and drinking the winter away. (oops... hope I didn't offend anyone there by mentioning alcohol.:smash:)

Will be brewing a batch of russian stout for the winter... Turning plugs... dreaming of better fishing days.

There. I could have easily offended 3 present/former members of SB.com. (And that's all that comes to mind!)
