Hey Everybody!!!
Well I had to take a break from the site for awhile there were to many meatheads posting and it kinda burnt me out. But with Spring fever setting in I checked the boards out again and it sorta looks like when I first signed up. I gotta say a few things though.
1. Lizards I take it you ran off to the land of big fish. So I guess we're not goin to Newton this year? Anyway I hope you took all the fishin lessons I gave you and put them to good use. J/K I hope everything turned out good for you on the stuff you were battling in IN. and you're having the time of your life. 2. To all the guys I already gotten to know a bit (Tom, Zooker, WTL, Reb. etc..) Glad to see you're all still here. 3.To the new folks. Look forward to getting to know you. 4.Last but not least. To anyone that lives in New York state. Shimano is by far the best reel on the market. Not only that, it was shear marketing genius to drop the Citica from their line, paint the old Curado silver then call it a Citica, then make a totally new reel charge $100 more and slap the Curado name on it. |

ILL, You know I have often wondered what happened to you.I bought 2 curados, think I got them swapped out for a Daiwa millionaire reel.I sold all of my Daiwas but my 3 oldest that they don't make anymore.I was wrong and won't make the same mistake twice. P N J

LOL I knew you'd reply pretty quick.
I actually have been on and off the site quite a bit but never felt like posting. Regardless I should keep in touch with you guys more. I guess the mail from japan runs really slow cuz it's been what almost 2 years and I still havnt got that reel. It should be here any day though |

IL,
Yeah I moved to HEAVEN The bigguns like it down here, and so do I. Nope the crap in Indy turned from bad to worse, so I aint coming back, except to get my other tackle But I might fish with you again, only if you are limited to a Lizard, and I get to use your crank Still have the one you gave me, and fish it as much as any crank I use. Come on down, we'll fish down here. I might still go to Newton with ya, still got family in Indy, and in St Louis, so we may hook up for another day of laughs and fishing. Glad your back, and the MEATHEADS are still here, just new names Lizards

Glad to see you back Il!
You would be correct about lizards. He has surpassed us all in both skill and location, the result being the pics you have seen. Unreal.
