You refuse to pay your bills because there is a sale on power saws...so you can cut a 4 foot wide 120 foot long hole in the frozen lake to see if your flies work properly

When the guys that pick up the road kill on the highway make daily deliveries to your house.

 

When you count your hooks for you next order using a scale that goes up to 5 pounds.

 

When Whiting farms and Tiemco send you birthday cards.

 

When you spend time searching the internet for Chinese bead distributors.

 

Cheers, Futzer
