    College debt~

    Schmaltz, I could not agree more. I have always been an advocate that before going to college for a degree, young people should work in the field they want to pursue a degree in. I had a hard time with "Briefcase Experts". Nice suits, slick presentations, and not a clue what they were talking...

    Dipsy Divers for Walleyes

    Snubbers save tackle with hard hitting fish like trout and salmon. Set drag so you hear a click every couple minutes. Lost a bunch of lures first day before I figured that one out.

    Corner jumping court case.

    Too many deer
