Default Super Bowl or Steelies?

Assuming your favorite river is fishable, would you rather be watching the game or fishing hard? Also, if you dare, who will win the game?

No reason not to do both. The game doesn't start until 3:25 PM. That should give you plenty of time to be on the river at first light, fish until 2:00 or so, and be back in time for kickoff. Sure you miss the pregame, but the good commercials don't start until after kickoff anyway. :grin:

I'm thinking "both", but in a different way than mentioned. I'm looking for one of those small, cheap TVs that plug into your lighter so we can bonk gators and watch the game. :grin:

How about just listen to the game on your walkman while fishing. That way you can do both at the same time. Won't be the same as watching it but its better than not knowing whats going on. I don't care for both teams this year so I will probably just be watching the commercials and vote for which one I think is best.

Sorry guys, but this one has got to be the superbowl. Carolina's offensive, and defensive lines are better than New Englands. Panthers by 4

If it was the Colts and the Eagles, I'd be watching the game.
With New England and Carolina, I think I'll go steelie fishing and set the PVR so I can fast forward through the game and just watch the commercials.

2004's installment should be called the "Dull Bowl".

I wish the Smelt were running. I'd go dipping.

May have to suffer through this years game though. Well... at least it's a good reason for a party and good eats. Would have to go with the Under dog whoever that is.

Well if it's fishable I figured out a couple of years ago I can tape the game and then fish all day, come home and lock myself up with the video and watch it that night.
