  1. I said it at the time, but she was the perfect honey pot for the NRA. Way hotter than anything those dorks ever pulled in thier life, but homely enough for them to think they had a real chance and she actually liked/was horny for taticool cargo shorts. They used to donate massive amounts out of some sense of fairness...
  2. Troph, I'd also suggest starting very early if blind casting shorelines particularly trout. Fish will often be tight to shore and skinny and showing signs at first light. By 8 they often get a little deeper or scattered and moving and much harder to target with a fly because its so much water to cover; but then you can switch to more sight casting or working lake shorelines and micro spots up shallow. Buddy of mine only fishes fly and when he goes with me he does best with this strategy. As morning progresses we may be a mile apart but both catching fish in different ways.
  3. I did catch a fuckload of ladyfish and a few smacks in the surf this morning. Got one Tarpon to eat a fly, came unbuttoned after 20 seconds. Maybe 20 lbs. Some trout early; no reds. Quite a few tarpon around until tide petered out, I'm just not great at targeting them. Had a lot of chances.
  4. Fly fishing Texas flats can be Very challenging. Even more so on foot. Kudos for grinding it out. Drum are hard to get to eat anything that doesn't stink- frustrating. You can walk a half mile and just about to be to fish when some Pendejo rips through in an airboat. I don't throw the fly as much as I want because I have to find fish so the people I fish with also find fish and catch some so I throw conventional 90% of the time especially once I had kids. Find the fish; put my rod away. I probably walked 2 miles Monday throwing mostly topwater conventional and landed zero slot sized reds. Tons of trout 16-23, kept a few for my buddy who likes to take home meat. I can cover way more water than fly fishing and blind cast miles of flats. But I caught zero over 20". Been fishing that area my entire life. No boat traffic. Zero slot reds. Fly fishing is so much harder, it's at times very cruel, but to see them eat and land one on a fly is next level. A 27 inch red on a conventional reel and top water is cool, but been there done that.
  5. Farm people Book wavers, soul savers Love teachers Just lit to pop and nobody is gonna stop
  6. Despite being the best athlete and most bigliest manly man of all time.
  7. They like small live bait, jigs, bucktails and flies. They just don't like to move much off the structure in my experience. I'd choose a small mullet or shad over a late summer eating size live shrimp imo, a small shrimp would be first choice however. Smaller hooks too, dudes try and target with bigger offshore shit and it usually doesn't work. They Are like giant crappie. A small minnow or shrimp or lure right in the face or you aren't fishing.
  8. I have caught more nearshore and offshore than in the bay. In the bay they can get finicky and spook easily, and you generally need calmer days so it's hot as fuck and they stick tight to shade. But any floating weed patch or debris can hold them. Caught a bunch under a floating piece of plywood maybe a half mile off POC and few under sargassum inside the jetty. Clean like giant crappie.
  9. I'd believe that Trump would eventually face conviction in 3-4 years If he wasn't the frontrunner to be elected Potus. All it takes is a dip in the economy or a spike in gas prices and he likely wins, and then hes not getting convicted-ever. The slow ass justice system coupled with Trump's usual stall tactics makes the likelihood of conviction pretty small within the window we have. Then you have the GOP blatantly stealing elections, suppressing votes and Bragging about. Then you have Ken Paxton who was indicted in 2015 and still has not gone to trial. It's a razor thin margin here. The Republic may endure only because the Supreme Court went full 4 Loco with Roe, and women are pissed and will turn out in 24 to keep fat boy pussy grabber out of office despite the GOPs efforts to steal the election. I may be dumber than a bag of hammers, but I'm a UT grad. Consider how much dumber all the aggies and non college grads out there voting must be, especially compared to this board.
  10. My 16 year old son and I built a bad ass VW camper van and a Mustang in the evenings after homework and before bed. Relaxing way to end the day and shoot the shit. User name checks out.
  11. Are you suggesting a Colt 45 and two Zig Zags is all we need? Probably true.
  12. The springs are shallow and the septic tanks numerous and not always well regulated.
  13. Yeah that's a rather Faustian bargain. It would be challenging to make friends until early adulthood at minimum, if you raised daughters going back to high school is especially gross as well. 10 million is enough for me to retire and travel. I'll take it.
  14. Easy Choice. I'm backing the blue and red and having food available to the brave men and women that put out the fire and investigate this horrible tragedy.
  15. Sign my dumbass up. I know better but I can't help myself.
  16. Lincoln went woke tho, and was shot by patriot Lee Harvey Booth who was a great patriot Founding Father that fought the war of Northern aggression and wokeness with the original AR (which doesn't stand for assault rifle) back before transgender beers were forced on us by woke media. * Probably said seriously on our fine Redneck Reviera several times this weekend more or less.
  17. She didn't take that tire seriously enough and that tire sought vengeance for her flippant attitude with the quickness.
  18. Yes, my stuff is gnarly on the mound and I can hit like Babe Ruth.
  19. Plus Minnie is fucking Goofy. Gotta be loyal; bros before hoes.
  20. Plot Twist hot shot. Scooby scored all the weed, lacking opposable thumbs, he relied on the gang to turn into his weed into snacks he could eat. He couldn't roll his own joints. Counterpoint he's lazy, and these days of edibles errwhere the gang is no longer necessary, so you better be cool af.
  21. Arizona, dude looks like Charlton Heston, very helpful.
  22. Was fantastic; sound was superb and they mixed it up a bit
  23. I also saw that one black dude that plays bass in the parking lot and I believe on the street in Santa Cruz at the show inside, so extra diversity.
