  1. A reputation like Lund's isn't earned easily. I've never owned or even drove/ridden in one, but to be around as long as they have, they have to be darn good boats.
  2. Appreciate you guys' kind comments and yes, bo, knowing they are with Jesus and that we will see them again someday is quite a comfort.
  3. He is now subject to the age-old 90/100 Rule .... women control 90% of the money and 100% of the nookie. 😄
  4. Thank you guys so much. Been a bittersweet 60th birthday, as I lost my father late Tuesday night. He was 91, suffering from dementia and very ready to meet Jesus, but it's never easy. The birthday wishes were a nice surprise. Appreciate you guys.
  5. Good solid report. Thanks for sharing!
  6. What the heck is that carpet/floor covering on his front deck? I'd get dizzy looking down at that and fall out of the boat! 😂
  7. How many would you like and in what colors? 😃
  8. TR is presently 10 feet above summer power pool. That puts a TON of primetime shallow cover in the water and you better believe there are a lot of bass in it, including some big uns. Bill is right on in saying the biggest numbers of fish are out deep. But don't stay home because someone told you shallow fishing isn't worthwhile. Wherever there is food, cover and oxygen, there will be bass. GREEN LIVES MATTER.
  9. I think the ones of us on here who do both --- you included, Jerry --- know better than that! I'd have to buy a lot of Pro-V1's to even add up to what I have invested in crank baits and jerk baits!
  10. BPS in Rogers is giving more and more display space to their crappy store-brand stuff. Especially lures. Can hardly find any brand-name stuff in decent colors, and seems like they are constantly eliminating more brands. I do most of my shopping at Hook Line & Sinker. Johnny neither needs nor misses my money.
  11. Redfin thru hardwood treetops very early in the morning. Perfect casts way past the target are critical.
  12. In that case, I hope you find great success with all species. Thanks for practicing catch-and-release and for passing the wonderful sport of fishing along to your kids.
  13. Crappie are going to be scarce in mid-June, especially with the flood conditions, and most members of this forum don't kill our bass, particularly since all 3 species must be a minimum of 15 inches to keep. When you say "mess," I assume you were referring to sawing the sides off of them.
  14. I'm with Bill … sounds like a great trip to me. There I go with my low standards again! 😄
  15. Good ol' Johnny is always in the neighborhood anytime something like this goes down.
  16. Rain = why we have GoreTex 😆😂
  17. Cool, hope to see you then!
  18. Could not agree more. Thus, JM's latest "outreach" into golf. Just one man's opinion. I'm sure others will counter that Johnny is doing unfathomable good for the sport.
  19. Said a mouthful right there, bo. If you don't understand the ways of the creature you're trying to catch, no amount of technology is going to do it for you. I'm still running 998 and 958 Birds on my boat and am more than happy with them.
  20. I actually casted this rod several times at an OA spring tournament a few years back.. Amazing how it will zing that little varmint out there. Don't recall which reel Randy was using on it at the time but the rod was really impressive.
  21. 😆😆 How the heck do you even do that?
  22. I use the Pro Guide group 27 lead-acid batteries and have had zero issues in nearly 20 years.
  23. Hey Dave, would love to have seen you guys but glad you had some fun pulling on those big pond fish. Hope you'll get down here this fall. You both look great!
