What's bothering you?

Postby lconn4 » Wed May 09, 2012 3:39 pm

I was going to mention a couple of complaints I've had about lures a few months ago when I was using deep crank baits but held my tongue. Well, as the things that bother me keep adding up figured I'd list a few before I explode.

Paid lots of money for quality hardbaits that don't run true. Not naming names but seems I've gotten more than my fair share of dogs lately and no amount of tweaking makes them feel right.

Some of the new soft plastic baits are downright dainty when it comes to holding up. I've never had so many worms, craws, and others get beat and torn up on so little action.

I will say that some of the better spinner baits I'm using are much better than the cheaper stuff but not finding that holds true with the hard plastics.

Anyone else got a gripe?

I've got what seems to be an incurable case of redfish thumb.

It's looked like that or worse for about 15 months now.

Yea, I have a gripe. CHOCOLATE . What happen to the taste? When I was young it actually had a great taste. Now a days it's like some kind of wax mixed with a cheap chocolate "like" flavor. :x

People who block intersections when they saw the traffic in front of them wasn't moving but decided to run the red light anyway :evil:

People who don't know how to merge on the highway

these idiots that call and ask me to take an opinion poll and then are irritated when they don't like my opinion. They are supposed to be taking a poll not trying to sway my opinon.

having to work thru a menu of any kind when I call any company where I have paid money for a product, especially one that has more than three choices before I can choose "speak to a live person."

A menu that doesn't let you speak to a person...
... leave a message and there is a chance that we
might get back to you... someday... if we feel like it.
