The jacked part of Rapala messing up the wart colors is that Rapala themselves have a lot of good colors, but they couldn't leave the wart alone.

The 60 " boat will be a little slower, but should run shallow and get a crap ton of lift off that big flat bottom. There aren't a whole lot of places that the 60 " hull is going to keep you from running. Only question is jet or prop? -
Nice ! Bring some red wiggles and see if the Golden Shiners don't play a lot more.
-
Yeah John, for my use, 60 inches is more than I need. It wouldn't be the worse thing ever, but certainly not going to pay extra for it. I'm probably 3 years out on a new rig. The basic White River Jon boat is a pretty basic design. That s why there are so many versions out there. More than one guy has built their own in a garage. Some of those homemade boats look like a giant dog turd, but they fish ok.

I was desperate to get a split grip rod and immediately found out I hated them.
-
Well that's too bad. That Eakins jig rod is really a multipurpose stick, but I don't know that I would have looked to it for cranks.

I don't remember spray being much of an issue, but I also don't like to fool with the White when wind is much over 10 mph -
Did they quit making them? Have you tried Bass Boat Central?

I've seen an Xtreme or two and I'm sure they are nice boats. I'm not sure the advantages of 20 inch sides, but whatever. Fit and finish on this generation of Supremes and Shawnees is very nice. my preference would be the Topwater, but that doesn't have to be the plan for anybody else. I love the boat I have. It's paid for. It will be the last 42 inch bottom boat I EVER have though. That's my one hard suggestion. Try to get 48 inch or wider. -
Nope

75% of the time when I throw a grub, it's an 1/8 oz head. It heavy wind or trying to stay down I will go to 1/4 oz. I have some 1/16 oz, but I've never seen a time they were of value. I have some 3/8 oz, but I don't remember ever using them. If I wasn't so cheap, I would try some of the fish head designs. I just throw ball heads. 2/0 sickle for my smaller 4 inch grubs maybe go up to 3/0 for Fat Alberts and some of the BIG 4 inch grubs

Super Dave spends all this time painting hard baits that he never fishes. Odd.

Pretty

I wish I only had one size
-
The Rainbows are really pretty there. Super healthy. Never healing from their time in a hatchery. I go there for Size and not numbers. I really like that river.

Blech to which one? I'd take 25 fish days at TB with best 5 fish 17-20 lbs
-
You might put a flyer up st the fly fishing shops. The fly guys should snap that up
-
I think I have 10 of the 90's and 3 of the 130's. Fun bait.
-
I wish. My homey was down there weekend before last. He was mad he only got 25 fish a day with 10 or so a day over 3 lbs. nah trying to move and sell a house
-
Not gonna be there. I got life issues.
-
I continue to have a couple Top Dollars waiting at my house to be sold or traded to someone that would fish those silly things.
-
Land Big Fish has been running 20% off sales off and on. Tackle Warehouse often has a sale around Tax Deadline time.

I'm really impressed with the RK. I had to have a good day with Wart before I jumped on the RK mule, but I reach for RK first. for all the reasons Charlie listed. I am saturated with square bills. I don't need any more at all. The colors sn the RK are great as is. I can think of 3 or 4 more Colors I would like to see, but so what.

Ehhh Dave, FYI, you have a significant stash of everything
