Yikes! $1,600.00 and still 3 days to go.

Very nice!

True that, the bait is getting a lot of hype.

I heard a rumor that the Spro Rock Crawler will be released next month.

Back to the Future..

LOL, yeah probably so.

Never have caught a trout down in the lake, but have heard of many who have. And they are usually nice ones when they are caught.

Cubs making a move, don't know if it is enough to make them relevant next year. http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/12/10/jon-lester-goes-to-cubs-for-155-million-over-six-years/related/

Yes, for sure Wrench sell them on the big boards. BBC board lures for sale has had a bunch of originals on sale going for a minimum of $20. If they have "Wiggle Wart' written on the underside of the bill, those are the ones that are the "old" version.

Be careful in Seligman as you approach the intersection with 37 if you come back that way from Big M or Eagle Rock.

Thanks guys for the kind words, it's just a little too far for me to make a day trip, otherwise I would consider it. Sure going to be some nice weather, maybe I will get out and chase the bass if I'm feeling OK. I spoke to Miles at Riley's just a few minutes ago. He plans to put everyone in the River Villa - same place we stayed at last year. It has 5 bedrooms, one of them has 2 beds in it. There's a couple of futons in the den, and if 8 guys are there Saturday night, then someone will have to sleep on a couch in the living room.

Guys, I am not going to be able to make it - my back has been acting up, makes me very reluctant to spending a couple of days fishing, and to top it off, my dog has got some kind of allergic reaction that is causing him to break out in a rash, so I don't want to bring him on a trip. Somebody needs to bring some cole slaw, ketchup, and tartar sauce for Brett's fish fry. I called Riley's yesterday to update them on the number of people, left a message and they have not yet called back. I will try again today. Hope you guys do well, post some pics and videos!

I was hoping for some upsets last weekend, specifically to see Bama and FSU lose, that would have really tossed a monkey wrench in the whole process. Surprisingly there were not any upsets, and I can't believe how OSU just stomped Wisconsin.

Love that hat! Nice bunch of stripers also, congrats!

You can call it a cop out or bogus or whatever but it is one of the selection criteria, at least for this year. Maybe they will adjust their criteria after this year, but if not, the Big 12 will be at a disadvantage, unless they adopt a championship format. Principles. The committee will select the teams using a process that distinguishes among otherwise comparable teams by considering: Conference championships won, Strength of schedule, Head-to-head competition, Comparative outcomes of common opponents (without incenting margin of victory), and, Other relevant factors such as key injuries that may have affected a team’s performance during the season or likely will affect its postseason performance.

Look at this one - bid is up to $1099 http://www.ebay.com/itm/STORM-NIB-PRE-RAPALA-WIGGLE-WART-V44-/271700298402?pt=US_Taxidermy&hash=item3f42998aa2 If they are selling at these crazy prices, it's probably just going to be a matter of time before someone skilled at painting starts counterfeiting them.

Nice one! Congrats!

Yep some good matchups, I hope the Hawgs put the hurt on the Horns.

That is downright ridiculous! What color was it?

Sorry to hear that, and I agree with the hope that the thief is truly needy and puts them to good use.

Not really a fan of any of these teams, but by process of elimination, and the fact that I used to live in the Pac NW, I guess I'll root for Oregon.

Welcome!

Basically they have different sized lodges, so when I tell her we have possible 5 for Thursday night, she'll put us in a lodge that sleeps 5. I don't know if they have one that sleeps 7, so she might split us up for Friday night. Regardless, you'll have a place to stay.

Nice healthy bass. The large mouth bass seem to be really fat and healthy looking this winter, and a fairly good number in the 2-3 lb. range. I'm hoping that class of fish will have good survival success and give us a good bunch of 4-5lb. fish in another year or two.

That looks tasty! Similar to a Shepherds pie, except with fish.
