Dude I've got a couple Shimano rods and reels and a Berkley rod that I spent way too much money on. I do catch way more fish with that Berkley though, because I can feel the smallest touch from a fish and set the hook in that bitch quick.

Yea I think I may have spent a little too much cash on those things I've got 5 setups with the reels running between 200-350 a pop and the rods running 200-250 a pop when they were new. So many other better things I could have spent that money on.
I always buy cheap reels and only own 1 good rod. If I fished more than a couple times a year, I'd probably invest in some better equipment.

Oh that wasn't counting the countless cheapies I've got (and broken). But I do fish a-lot, more than enough to justify the investment.

This is my uncle's boat by the way...I like it!
Oh, you've got one of those nice big water setups. I love my bass boat but as soon as the water gets a little chop to it then it really blows. Been thinking about selling out for a center console bay boat with a raised forward deck.

Yeah i dig it a lot. I think my cousin said it can get up to 40 mph? I don't know shit about boats. But it's perfect for 2-3 people fishing off of. The canopy can get annoying, since I'm 6ft. But it's nice to have when it's raining.

Wow 40 is freaking fast for a deep V boat, the bass boat only does about 50-55 before it looses stability and starts walking and it's got an oversized engine. But I really like the stability factor and ability for more than 2 people to fish off of it. My current bass boat is really only a one trick pony, if you don't want to do tournament style bass fishing you're boned cause it just sucks at everything else.

Yeah we never got up to 40. I think the max we hit was like 20-30mph. And that was just to get to the spots we wanted to get to.

That's Mr Asshole to you
I am probable into fishing and hunting more than anything else. I will fish for anything that swims and will hunt anything legal. I bow hunt and rifle hunt.
I have only got a pig with my bow but I have only been bow hunting for 3 seasons. Here are some pics I had in my photobucket album.

OK I was able to dig up a couple of picture from this past deer season
This is a hogg that I shot behind my house, I walked within 20yrds of this fucker and he decides to charge at me, I managed to get a shot off 1st and hit him at a pretty good angle went in were you can see in the picture and came out right in front of his back leg, I was using the bow I had before I got te one I use noe\w, it was a Martin(my favrite bow Co.) Firecat set at 65lb draw using Easton Axis full metal jackets and a muzzy head.
This is the buck I shot this year in the fog, I watched a decent sixed buck all morning out at about 100yrds, he went down in a creek and about 10 min later this fucker came out in a thicket right at 30yrds....my dumbass drew and shot without making sure it was the same buck needless to say it WASN'T..oh'well they all eat the same. This was the 3rd deer that I had taken last season with my Rytera (Martins high end) Alienx...
Now here is the buck I was try to get, it came out the next day and walked right past me at 20yrds (Made me sick) I sent a text to my buddy that was hunting alittle down the creel from me and told him it was headed his way and he managed to call the son of a bitch within 10yrds and took him with his Diamond Iceman.

if you wont one for just bow fishing get a take down recurve, Martin has one called a Jaguar and PSE has one called the Kingfisher.
If you want a good starter bow that wont break the bank get a Martin Cheeta...my dad has one and it shoots real good he still uses it the most.
