    Default I need HELP!


    I honestly have around 125 rod/reel setups. 90% of it is for panfish/crappie. Only paid full price for maybe 5% of them. A few years ago I vowed not to buy anymore setups regardless of how cheap they are. I stuck to my promise until today. 1 8ft Wally Marshall signature, 1 BnM 8ft Bucks Classic, 1 Bass Pro 7ft Crappie Maxx, 1 BnM 6.5 Sharp Shooter all the whopping price of $10.81. I would love to say I am shame for folding but I would be lying like a politician Pray for your brother.

    Couldn't turn that deal down and wouldn't be ashamed myself. There's got to be a little more room in the shed for a few more....

    Don't feel too bad about yourself, I still have 1/2 a container of rods here new in the box from Asia. We just bought 3 Wally Marshall Speed Shooters. So you like fishing equipment, you could easily have a worse affliction.

    Man, you’re just another regular guy with an addiction for fishing. That’s a great deal. But, my better half and bride for 45 years would I think literally kill me if I purchased another rod and reel. You see two years ago we sold our place to come take care of her elderly Mother. Rather than live in the house with her we live in the camper. So if you have ever lived in a camper though it’s a toy hauler you have limited space. Well fellows I limited out. By the way the boat is full, my son’s storage is full back in Alabama. All 5 grandkids now have a minimum of three rod and reels each. I think you guys understand. But man it’s tempting to purchase such a good deal. By the way, she still says, you needed more jigs? ?*??I need HELP!I need HELP!

    Sorry but yes I think you should be very ashamed of yourself. And to atone for your sins you should donate a sizeable portion of that hoard to other worthy and not so well equipped fisherman. I volunteer to be first to help you with this intervention.

    My problem is I also tie jigs and pour plastics but I don't sell anything. I have enough tying supplies to last four lifetimes and around 100 molds for crappie baits. A gallon of plastisol will pour roughly 2,000 2" baits. I come nowhere close to using that many baits but I still go thru roughly a gallon of plastisol a year. I give them away like candy at the boat ramps every time I go out but I still have many lifetime supply. It's a fun hobby and more healthy than drinking.
