Default Red alert ?

The news is out more terrorist trying to blow up planes With the threat level raised to red what does that mean for us seaports?With the swordlords this Sat out of port everglades should we check and see if this will be problem?60 boats converging on the port at 4 or 5 am may get there unwanted attention.I some one could find out about this or let the port know of the tourney I think it will be a good idea

Those bastards should all be shot.

We are pickin one up from Tek pretty soon. I'm so psyched. In my opinion, it is the best swording reel.

I agree Finalpoint. We spooled it with 80lb Sufix. Going to use it as the shallow tip rod and see if we can entice some action tonight.

Don't worry... as long as we don't have any shampoo bottles on board, we'll be okay. :lol:

Why not assign a bitch (not a girl, just someone on board) to drop it deep and reel it up all night? Then you have the bait all over the place so you can get some action on the new combo. I LOVE when the new reel gets hit.
