Yeah wayne I have one. But this Ipad has a program that anticipates what you want is the only way I can describe it. That coupled with the fact that I am a one fingered typist who has to look at the keyboard with my sausage fingers is just getting to be to much. Right now. I am up in Hermann at my daughters home and I do not seem to have the problems here I do at home. She and her husband are both computer consultants and she just hates the IPad. I have had it insert a word totally on its own. The reason for that is I am slow and sometimes you get a few letters down for a word and it writes a word it thinks you mean. I have shut off some if the spelling programs and they come back. To much BS for. A 74 yr old.

My first wife was one that would finish my sentences all the time. She'd get pissed because sometimes "I wouldn't do what I said", but in my defense it WASN'T ME that said it!

Chick would ask me a question....then answer it for me ! And I was expected to stand by that answer. It was madness!

OP, do as I did and divorce that iPad before it gets you in trouble :)

mitch i would think twice about arguing with his first wife. I know her. Think she could hold her own kicking some rear ends.

I understand that Old Plug. I have some of the same problems. I use two fingers, but I still have to watch where they go and sometimes I don't read what I wrote. :D

Must be an age thing?

Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.

Hey Old Plug,

You can go to settings and turn auto correction off for the keyboard.... Worked for me, I hated that.

SCOTT i did that and it worked for a few days and the spell check returned. I am awful suspect of all the break up I have with WIFI and it kind of makes me loose track. Another thing is my wife and granddaughter load this thing up with games and music and what have you. I have a lot of interference with that stuff showing up when its not suppose to,locking the rotation, removing my WIFI. The other night I started to type and it split the keyboard in half. Made two tiny half screen on each side of the screen. I pushed them together and then the whole keyboard jumped to the top of the screen and i could not get it to return. While i was trying to find something up jumps a page from I Tunes. I deleted it and everything cleared up. This thing is not going to be here much longer i can tell you that.

Bear,

Your gonna like the suffix-make sure you get the 832 as they make another braid that's not

as good. The suffix works better on a spinning reel than anything I have tried.

That is what I have. I got the 20/6.

If it performs like I am used with the Crystal Fireline, and all indications are it will, I am done with mono for good.

I like Fireline Chief. I only use it for crappie fishing a 1/16 th oz jig in early season because it creates a very very slow sink.

I still believe break offs are mostly caused by the angler not knots or line. Things like checking the lines condition( thats easy to do with Mono) but not with braid. Sloppy knots also. I have a habit of running my fingers over the first 3 ft of my line frequently during the day I can feel abrasions and cuts in mono. But you will not in braid because it is soft. Inability or negligence checking your line while fishing might be the largest of all reasons for breaks. Fish do not care much about line. They might care though about the sound coming from it. Also as far as what they see remember some can see colors beyond our range. So who knows what they see a line as.
