It seems to me that a lot of us have too much time on our hands to think about such things as building brush piles and making money on public waterways by doing so.
I have used the same Evinrude trolling motor since 1993 without many problems at all no spotlock or gps locator .I can see where the new tms would be great.It just depends on your fishing needs.Oh by the way I do have a Lowrance HDS 12 carbon pro on the boat.
My dad rode up in a elevator one day in Independence and Harry Truman talked to him.My dad said he seemed like a regular guy.My dad emigrated from England and thought it was pretty cool to be able to talk to a former Potus.
I have been to BP to many times only to find that they don't have the good deal in the store that they have in their sale paper.Save your time.I bet you could buy all the $60,000 boats you could haul out of the lot.
I have seen a livery put many yaks on Taney when it was running 10000 cfs in heavy fog.just stupid.The outfitters just want their money kinda like the old Duck Boats.
