Interested. What year did you purchase?

Brian D.

I hope some day that I could be honored in the same way.

Brian D.

Congratulations on the early retirement. I know we’ve talked about Howard Stern on here. I always listen to the old shows when I go out fishing by myself, and it’s just the best. If you know how to torrent you can find them all sorted by year online (or sometimes on a a google drive, internet archi...

Thanks. There comes a time in a mans life to say enough, Im done working. It's time to live the golden years.

Brian D.

Was just up there for 3 days this weekend. Use whatever technique you like. Drop shot and cranking, both shallow and deep, was the ticket for better fish. Better fish seemed to be offshore on rock cover but we caught good quality fish shallow, flipping, frogs, buzz baits, spooks. Just do what you l...

Thanks. Sounds like you had fun and exactly what I am making the 700 mile drive.

Headed up to the bass factory in 5 days for a fun relaxing trip and celebrate my early retirement. Been 7 years since I've been up there since moving to San Diego. What's the latest bite on the lake? How's the green goo/ algae? Just lookin to get dialed in to the summer bite. Yeah... frogs and jaaa ...

Boats, insurance, labor, and fuel costs have all gone up. Gone are the days of $250.00 all day guide trip. I imagine that is probably just their fuel, boat and insurance cost alone. Then consider tackle, time and knowledge to put their client on fish it gets expensive quick. You can always try to f...

Good Lordy. This guy rambles on and on. NO ONE cares. WB please leave this nonsense on FB or YT. Not on your precious boards.

Brian D.

Gawd... I felt dummer after watching this video. Uhhhggg.

Brian D.

Well geometry speaking I think that when fishing from the back of the boat you will need to cast on a 45 deg. angle of the boater. Then throughout the day try to cast in a 360 deg. radius but NEVER fall back to an obtuse angle or your boater will look at you sternly as if you didn't know of the corr...

Geezz. Louize. Soooo many angry red hat wears. If someone disagrees with your flavor of candidate you attack and attack and call names. A sure sign of low IQ individuals, easily susceptible to manipulation. Why people don't like tRump. He is a thief from stealing from his charities, traitor stealing...

Brian D.

Its no longer a republican party. It belongs to tRump. He inherited a good economy and other positive growth related areas that he only dreamed of helping create. Sure there is inflation, but its coming down slowly. Its a big nation. The wind is at his back. Fingers crossed he doesnt destroy our nat...

Brian D.

Great interview. He spills the 411.

Stop... Just Stop. Consume better media.

Brian D.

Surprised that this bote hasn't sold. Looks like a steal for 69 K. If I didn't just buy my bote, I would have jumped on this.

Comical. Starting with the fake pandemic. Anyone who says shutting down the country masking children Forcing vaccines Forcing us to stay home and not go outside to FISH. Then open back up and say oh look at the economy I created It’s difficult for me to believe people actually buy into this garbage...

Brian D.

......... And good gawd guys, stop drinking the hater aid. Sure some things are more expensive, but I for one am doing very very well in this booming economy. Its no longer the 70s, 80s, 90s or 2000. Grow up and ask your employer for a friggin raise... or better yet, charge more for your services. ...
