Mini Bass Boat
Go ahead and get you a 12-14 ft. used johnboat fo r 100-200 bucks and fix it up.If you are planning on carrying anything , you'll need the space.

Happy with your Merc outboard?
I'm using a Yamaha now,but I had one a few years ago.They are goodand dependable.

The Hardest Question
I try to give a bait 30 min. before I change,but rarely meet that standard.
-
Dirty water fishing
Baits that are highly visable and that make lots of noise or vibration.

My winter fishing baits are the following:jig and pig,suspending jerkbaits,deep diving crankbaits,Rattle-traps yo-yoed off the bottom,and straight-tailed finese worms.

Points & Coves & Need some help...
I catch fish on secondary points with texas-rigged woms,crankbaits,slow-rolling spinnerbaits,and even topwaters on the shallow end of the point.

river with bass
I don't think every river has bass in them,but in the deep South where I live they all do.I've even caught small bass in a creek on my land that's only 3-4 feet wide.

Fiberglass/Bass boats in windy conditions!
A glass boat is really solid in the wind.

Poor Man's boat - best choice?
You can buy an old used canoe for a couple hundred bucks.That will get you around until you can get what you really want.

What do you pull your boats with?
2000 F-150 pulling a 15 ft. Terry BB.No prob.
-
which do you prefer
I like shallow water with plenty of cover.There's a lot of big fish there too (early and late).
-
favorite lake/pond
I fish a state lake in south Miss.I like the shallow(2-5 ft.)flats.They are stump infested and thick with grass.There are 2 long,winding ditches running through them.There are many techniques that you can use.
-
Your Confort Zone?
I like fishing flats with stumps and grass.If it has a ditch running through it,so much the better.Spinnerbaits,floating minnows,shallow running crankbaits,and plastic worms do it for me.

Aluminum Boat
Get you some marine plywood.It costs,but it will stand up to getting wet and rotting.
-
Evinrude (funny)
That commercial is a hoot! LOL !!!
-
Portable Outboard
I fished out of a 14 ft. aluminum johnboat for many years .I had( and still have )a '73 Evinrude 18 hP. It will haul butt on that boat.iT Currently needs a diaphram in the carb.When I fix it,I'm gonna sell it,but I hate to get rid of it.It's a solid,dependable motor.
-
Oddest Boats
I love mine.Half the fun was fixing it up.It drafts pretty shallow ,and I can go where some boats can't get into.Yes ,it is similar to the old Kingfisher.As a matter of fact ,I had one but sold it for peanuts.Should've kept it.
-
what size engine?
Unless you want a motor for the "showoff " value or need a large motor for tournament fishing, all you need is some thing to get you to your spot and back.You'll be using your TM when you get there anyway.I have a 25 HP Yamaha on a 15 ft. Terry stick steering bass boat ,and it works just fine.

transducer
Could someone give me some tips on mounting my transducer on my trolling motor?I'm thinking using hose clamps to fix the transducer on the TM.
