On that swimbait you might try a little dye. SSSSHHHHHH. You did not hear it from me.

I agree with Champ on the depth thing and the hook not being natural. But there are times when the jighead is to much weight due to shallow water and a super slow retrieve that the hook option is better. Was fishing a swimbait with a guy in the back of my boat I had a light jig head and was getting my ars handed to me. I just turned around and looked at his set up, belly weight wide gap hook and a slower retrieve was what the fish wanted. I did not have a weighted hook but had wide gap. I would get hung up if tried to get that jigheaded rig that slow and the fish would not hit mine if it was fast enought. I really think the Kietech has the best action and the most natural presentation.

And the Darwin Award goes to...

Really nice work and super neat rack.

Sorry about the Shingle, I had a friend who suffered with them and I wish that on no one. May you heal quickly.

Me too. Wrench, never met a cookie I would not try at least once.

Sorry to hear of the passing of a true friend, they are all missed and have provided long lasting memories we never forget.

Ok, adding another question, Beaver Lake is the beginning of the White River Chain of lakes, correct? Then will the White River Boarder permit work on Beaver Lake, I am a Missouri resident and have MO fishing, trout and WRB permits. What do I have to get to fish Beaver Lake.

You know the best part about this is he had every chance to keep this a secret. He is alone on the ramp no body around just shed clothing as far as you have to make the swim and get you boat back, tell no one, and have forever plausible deniability. DENY DENY DENY. I think it makes me like the guy, proves they are human and screw up just as bad as we do when we get excited about fishing.

When in doubt, always chose the boat. Your wife is never gonna be "Happy" no matter what you do. At least if you have a boat you can be happy and get away from her when she is mad.

Ok, thank you could not find it in the manual.

I have a hummingbird 798 CI that I have mounted on the front of my boat I want to just use this for the mapping program as I have purchased a new helix 9 to mount at the front as well. Do I have to have a transducer mounted to the 798 to get it to function out of simulation mode.

The truck in the picture did not learn the first time. Momo missed this time

Thanks for the advise, and help will let you know. I not really interested in running that far, I was just trying to confirm the information I had figured. I understand the mental aspect. I just need to learn the area. I need to put my head down and concentrate and shut up and fish.

No March 10.

I just have no experience up there, I have not spent time up there to know where the good brushpiles and docks are located. I have never been able to catch fish in muddy water. and that is all I have ever found up there. I will take suggestions and am willing to learn.

I have a tournament in March and for some reason they decided on Larry R Gale as a take off location. I hate fishing cold dirty water and that is all I have ever found up there. My question is this, how far in rough river miles is it to PB2. I am much more confident in my ability to locate a solid limit in the cleaner water up around Aohonna area and around PB2 but not sure how far it is by river. Thanks in advance. TR

I agree with Wrench on this as being a load of BS, they have ruined small compact loaders with this emissions crap. A marine engine with this will be a horrible idea.

We paid out the ars for this idiots arrogance, now we are gonna have to pay this out through the nose. This is a dam smart lawyer, getting his bills paid with the patrol higher ups being too blame. It seems like the old saying the truth will set you free, applies. They tried to cover there butts and exposed the tax payers to pay the bills. Government at its best.

Dave, I will gladly add your unspoken prayer request to my list and pray for whatever you and whoever you need it for is in need of. May God embrace your request and take all worry and fret from your mind as he is there to deal with what troubles us, if we can just give it over to him he will take care of all things in HIS NAME.

Yall, need to check out through Bassmaster website for the "Man Caves", and check out G-mans boat storage garage and his peg boards.

Which model of 898, side imaging down imaging???? C or CI ???? Can you add pictures of transducer and head unit????

Fished Stockton one morning for club tourney, it was 16 deg at take off, my boat was in the garage as usual. Hooked and went to the lake, 1 1/4 hour drive to ramp and we took off at a slow pace. Got to a point I like and after about 10 minutes had a fish on, pulled my measure board to check length, he measured but he also stuck to the board like the tongue to the flag pole, got water in livewell and was able to get fish off the board. My buddy and I laugh about that to this day, been five or six year ago. It was sunny and calm that day got to about 40. Won that derby on a jerkbait caught fish all day it was a blast. My buddy will not longer fish with me when there is a jerkbait bite, I could not get him to get bit, gave him my rod, my jerkbait, front of the boat everything I could think of. Picked up his jerkbait rod and caught fish behind him. Fun time love winter basin.

Once again sorry for the assumption. I just have dealt with both these type of individuals and was making judgements based on a biased opinion and my past history. My bad.

My apologies, I misread article. I think he should be able to file wrongful termination lawsuit.
