I DO NOT want to get any political conversation going with this. Just an observation.
Seems we have a whole bunch of people upset at one thing or the other since the election. Lots of name calling, ect.

I think if these folks would just get in a boat with each other and concentrate on fishing, they could work thru a whole lot of problems. This forum has a complete cross section of people of all varieties and types. Yet there is hardly any harsh words and very limited problems. Lots of different people here get along with each other and help each other. We start with common ground and something we all love to do. Some of these folks need to get together and get a good guide and go fishing. Probably be the best meeting they ever had.

fish is the cure; tight lines and happy times banana

Certain to bring a conservative smile to the most liberal of persons!


The driving force and secret desire of every bass fisherman, is to one day be a crappie fisherman............Could it be that the good Lord just smilies and looks the other way when a fisherman tells a lie?

I agree. It is amazing how a little conversation and getting to know someone would change how a lot of people think. I have met some awesome people here and wouldn't change for the world. I choose to try to get along with everyone.

I agree. To me this forum is a source for information on crappie fishing plus a way to enjoy the successes (and failures) of others. My best therapy is a day on the lake crappie fishing. What I catch is a bonus.

Love the thump.

I have been trying to explain to the people that handle my HRA that I should get credit for the fishing equipment that I have to have for therapy purposes.

Can't say I would want to fish with someone who would have voted for her. I can stomach someone who voted for our current headache, but no way for her. I might as well spit in a veterans face. Sorry I will leave it there. Ya hit a nerve lol

I will admit I chose the better of two evils. I hope I am VERY wrong about Mr. Trump!

I'll have to agree with this ideal.

As far as beliefs and politics, I'm me, you're you, I can't convey mine to you unless I communicate with you, let's communicate while fishing.

I'm a vet (1969 - 1975) and I seem him as a draft dodging coward who was more than happy to let others serve in his place.

thanks for your service.
I once saw a bumper sticker that read. " Vietnam,, we didnt lose,, we left".
Trump is appointing Generals as secretarys of defense instead of college deans. So hopefully if our sons are sent into the hell of battle, our sons will be the ones raining hell and fire down on the evil bastards that hate our way of life.
Diplomats are the ones who should be bargaining for peace, not Generals.
Its going to be an interesting 4 years. May God guide out president, and lets all give him a chance. its all we have .


COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

This thread is not about politics; it's about fishing and how we all benefit from partaking in what God blessed us with.
