Could someone please explain to me that big fishing advertisement, Garden Island Lodge? Is TalkBass branching out to other area's now or did this one slip under the door somehow?

Random add placement.

Yes and they also go by your IP for local things. I couldn't believe when a local instrument lesson place popped up one day.

Maybe Garden Island Lodge was attracted to the schools of largemouth bass which occasionally feed in TB's more tepid threads?

According to yahoo; google is going down.

Edit: Heh, and according to google; google is going to take over the world. Type "google is" into the searchbar and watch the autocomplete yourself!

i find the magic lure is not as good as they say on TV. I have had better luck with the little flashy things that skate across the water, or the good ol' rubber worm.

I use addblock so I don't see adds,but I'm sure there's a thread on a fishing forum "What's up with the bass guitar adds?"
