I just used Ozark Marine electronics . Great guys and they did a really clean job.. I have another unit to go on the bow this week . They make house and dock calls . For me that's a huge plus.

I've always had the best luck with American Legacy and TW. Generally they use Fed Ex . USPS could break a anvil. I also just got a Virtus through Jewel and it was really well packed in a PVC tube. The cardboard tubes are getting hard to get and expensive. I saw where a tackle shop in Spingfield is offering a discount if you bring them some tubes.

No question he is a knowledgeable guy but listening to him push all that Pradco stuff gives me a headache after awhile.

-
I had situation walking my golden retriever and some kid was walking a pit on the other side of our subdivision. As soon as that thing saw my golden he pulled loose from the kid and it was on. I kicked and punched the dog but couldn't get him to let go so I pulled my pistol and tried to shoot the darn thing but the kid who was walking it was trying to pull it off and I just couldn't get a safe shot so I pistol whipped the crap out of it, that worked. Anyway, I went in a ambulance and my golden went to animal emergency. I had to wait out the 10 days to see if it had rabies. . The owner paid our bills . This was in St. Louis county but the Police that responded told me I had every right to shoot it since your dog is your property and you can lawfully defend it. If the owner or the Sheriff won't help you I'd put a end to that dog if you get a chance before it attacks a kid .

I haven't had mine out it those conditions but I doubt it would be a issue as the DC system is under the side plate and sealed. I agree with the other's they are a neat deal, I have 2 and will probably get more. They are really just a Curado k with it's own version of the DC braking system and a 150 size spool.

It's my understanding the the new lowrider series will be made off shore as will the reintroduction of expert. I believe the lowrider will have a price decrease . The expert will be close in price to the Cara

I'll second that . I've caught my personal best spot and smallmouth out of the back of Champs boat... It ain't because of my skill.

Got a bit of a late start , on the water around 7:30. The first couple stops didn't produce much, a couple shorts flipping a Gambler Why Not into the bushes. Once the sun got up we backed off and started dragging a 1/2oz. Jakked football head with a speed craw through the bushes a did really well, most in 12-15 feet. I don't think they are going to leave the cover anytime soon. We saw lots of bait up shallow. I was really surprised at the amount of boat traffic. By 10:30 it was time to head for the barn.

Would like to talk to you about the elite. My number is 314-397-1852 Thanks Dale

Had a fog delay until 8am or so, but we managed about a dozen with 2 solid keepers and one that would have been close. All the better fish came on a spinnerbait , with my wife catching a bunch on ol' ned. They seemed to be hanging around the first drop in the creeks and a couple around the backs of docks. I don't think we caught one over 6ft. deep. Including a nice Brownie. Back on the lift at 12:30.

Cops for Kids and First Time Bass Fishing on TRL
ranger185 replied to Seth's topic in Table Rock Lake
Had a enjoyable day with my great friend champ 188. We would have liked a few more keeps but that's fishing. He also put me on the smallmouth of a life time. I'm grateful. -

Mercury Dealer or best Mercury Mechanic in SW MO??
ranger185 replied to GREENTRITON's topic in Table Rock Lake
Personally, I would recomend Danny Vasquez, He is at the Ranger dealer in Branson West . -
I've always bought the Dixie Jets directly from Tom Murphy the owner. He also has a web site basswishes.com. . Tom is a great guy and a heck of a spoon fisherman.
