  1. Bass Pro catalog outlet has a bunch of "reconditioned" trolling motors on hand all the time. Marine Repair Center may also have some 417-833-9191 ask for Scott.
  2. I'd call George at Marine Repair and explain the situation before I pulled a boat all the way to Springfield. The number is 417-833-9191.
  3. Any color will work but I like black/brown/white/chart/tan especiall the tan. When I fish this way I will have anywhere from 4-12 feet of line out depending on the depth of the hole and the current. I work the jig with slight shakings of the float just like fishing float and fly for bass.

    Thanksgiving

    You should really try Guajalote mole poblano. It it terrific.
  5. Give us a post back when you are coming and we might be able to put you on some fish if you are willing to drive a few miles while wifey is taking in all of the sites and sound of BRANSON.
  6. Around here we see 5 road hunters for every deer.

    Woodcock

    Dove a small piece of meat that is dark and tastes like liver.

    Woodcock

    The only thing I ever really found about the "timber doodles" is that I can feed 12 people all they want to eat on one bird.
  9. That kind of settles the discussion from several months ago as to whether or not one could fish next to a marina.
  10. I just got my land owner tags today. The puter spit out more than the book said I was supposed to get. I don't need that many deer.
  11. They might be doves but they sure have the body of a pidgeon. There would be a lot of liver tasting meat on one of those bad boys.
  12. Sorry to hear about all of your tmotor troubles. I guess I have been very fortunate. I have a MG that has over 7000 hours on it and all I have ever had to do was replace a worn out prop. I do check my prop and rope in the general boat inspection along with my trailer and boat motor and fix anything that needs attention. I have replaced my rope twice as I have seen some wear and carry a spare rope just incase.

    Finding Deer Lease

    Those that I know about go for Bow $100 deer only. Deer and turkey $175. Add rifle deer and shotgun turkey $500.
  14. The first thing you need is a good book that explains it all. I think it is called the Reloaders Bible or something like that.

    What Am I?

    Too bad about the possibility of a world record. That could have done you and Bull Shoals some good.

    What Am I?

    That much weight would have been a world record hybrid. I have never heard of hybrids in Bull, only a few stripers. I'm glad to see you were able to release it. Last winter I got a tongue lashing on this site for suggesting that a couple of stripers should have been released.

    What Am I?

    It isn't unusual for a striper to have a bit of broken lines like the pic. Where was it caught? Did you do the tongue test? The back of the tongue of a hybrid has one distinct tooth patch or two close patches very close together. The back of the tongue of a striped bass has two distinct parallel tooth patches.
  18. I don't know where one can buy gasoline with no ethanol. Every station I have tried has it in all grades. Installing a water seperating fuel filter will go a long way to keep your stuff working properly. Be sure to change it often if you fish a lot.
  19. I hope you get into them. It has been tough for me in SWMO this fall.
  20. It looked like spring time at Stockton yesterday. There were boats everywhere. The bass were biting real good but the guys after whites and crappie seemed to be having it tough. Any old bait at all worked but spinnerbaits were pretty good.
  21. That kind of purchase is getting to be more and more of a consideration. I live a lot closer than you to BPS and it still costs me about $8 to go there and back so I make sure I need quite a bit of stuff before I make the trip.
  22. NADA is typically the place to look for average prices. From there it is the condition of the boat that is the determining factor. I have never seen a person who didn't think his stuff is worth more than it actually is.

    White Bass

    You will find them the easiest on windy days. They seem to go hide someplace when the wind is not blowing.
  24. For a straight 24v all you will need is 2 wires. The ones in the boat may not be large enough. They need to be 6 or 8 g. Then you will need a jumper between the batteries to make 24v. When you get your trolling motor batteries be sure to get the largest RESERVE AMP capacity you can afford 200 reserve amps are great in a 27 series battery. 70 # thrust will be a great motor for that boat.
  25. Glad you got her going so easily.
