For you youngsters out there looking to buy a bass boat. You
Feb 3, 2021, 11:31 AM

may want to ask the dealer about this option...I just bought a new one, but after 37 years of marriage did not really need it. But, for some of you just starting the search....

....and my old boat needs a new owner if anyone is interested.

It's not a rumor, and that's why he sneaks out while she sleeping, and leaving a note on the fridge, hey dear, gone fishing, and didn't want to wake you, luve Spud!!!

I actually saw a guy in a bass boat and his wife was in the back seat reading a boat. However, she did not look like that.

Turned out to be a real nice fella. His 83 year old dad bought the bought and used it twice gave it to the son and he took it out a couple if times before buying a pontoon. Once I get all my electronics hooked up I will update rhe picks. But this is perfect fir me to use inq Russell Hartwell, Keiwee and still not too nice to dip in the Wando....

I think I saw that one on Craigslist recently. That's a nice Tin Rig Spud! She's got a lot of fish catches in her, I can tell. I'm a lil' bit jealous, lol! I've great things about Ranger's Rt series. Aluminum is making a big comeback in tournament rigs actually. A lot of pros have switched over from glass to tin. Awesome boat, congrats!

one for 19k. He just had the 20 hour maintenance performed on it. I did not like the old man ladder on the trailer to climb up on the deck,,,,,,,,,but I changed my mind on that quickly. It is nice! Now, I just have to get my Hummingbirds and a Garmin and I am good to go...

I thought that a fisherman as yourself, would have at least 300 horses pushing it to your favorite spots in a hurry. That 115 probably puts you asleep, doesn't it!!!

Hey Spud does that 115 HP push you to 50 MPH? Love the aluminum boats because I don’t worry about scratching or damaging the fiberglass and it takes a lot less gas so no need to stop and get gas every time we go fishing. I am sure you will be happy but make sure you have a great trolling motor and the best batteries on the market. I know you know all this just love talking fishing. How bout the Tiger basketball team going on a little run?

Maybe the fisherman should have been ejected for even taking a dingbat like that one, fishing with him to begin with!!! Rule #1, never take a women fishing that looks like she is about to go out clubbing, Rule #2, if she don't leave her cell phone in the truck, then leave her in the truck with her phone so she can call someone to come get her. Rule #3 that could be rule #1, if she isn't a women that loves fishing, she shouldn't have ever been invited to go!!!

When I was in college, before Mrs. Spud, I called this ,well
Feb 6, 2021, 7:11 AM
|
|
, I guess what you would call a cute dingbat, and when she said hello, I said," Hey So and So, this is Spud, how are you doing?". To which she replied," Fine". So I asked," are you going to be in town this weekend?". To which she replied,"Yes". So , I asked," Would you like to go out?".And she said," With who?"...................I kid you not!!!

Lots of woman fishers down here in Charleston these days. Always used to see boats with them mixed in over the years but lately you’ll see all female boats doing some serious angling.
I think the head under the center console on the newer boats has really made it more appealing for women, inshore and offshore.

none of your wives are on tnet. And one or two of you have never been married.
But from your stories, it’s obvious you ARE all fishermen . . .

BOAT: A hole in the water into which you continually pour money.
Sad but true. But, if you are good at it, fishing is a great way to spend your time. I wasn't good at it, no matter how much expensive gear I bought, I could never entice those fishys to jump onto my hooks.
So, I gave it up years ago and returned to playing golf. Only problem is, nowadays I have a similar problem with getting the golf ball to jump onto the face of my clubs. It keeps finding the edge of them.

with an uncle for me to realize that fishing was more in line with my talents. And my uncle wasn't any better than me and he had been playing for years. Never been on a golf course since.
