I write the depth on the underside of the bill in black sharpie.

I leave the key in the ignition. If I stop somewhere with the boat uncovered I'll throw them in the van.

I have a lab/collie mix, he's a great dog. He doesn't bother anyone while out on the boat, he sits on the back platform watching everything that's going on. ;D I also have pitbull/lab mix, he doesn't like water so he's out and he likes barking at everything.

If your coming down Interstate 79, I'll meet you where it crosses over 422 and I'll chip in for gas money. ;D I'm over the snow, Spring can't come soon enough.

I like the way largemouths strikes a bait, it feels like it has vengeance against it. I also like the fight of a nice smallie.

That was good, I spit kool aid all over the place. ;D

I'd say 3.8. Either way nice fish.

I'm not in this section that much. But I have noticed this before, the people who want sponsored couldn't even spell the word right. I'd just laugh and go on.

I understand you want to look the part of a tournament angler. But why represent someone for free, I wouldn't. I pay for all of the fees, equipment, boat maintenance and gas to run all over. When they start paying for some of that, then I'd wear their shirt and pay me well enough you get a boat wrap till then it's my company name on it, noone else's.

Nice, I wanted to get out there but couldn't.

Matzuo are bad, they roll on their side while cranking it.

Whoever don't want their Rage Baits send them my way. After I catch a fish with them I'll send you a pic. My worst bait has been, Matzuo Cranks. They roll on their side while cranking it. >

Berkley Realistix Power minnow. I catch a ton of fish of them

Congrats Simp, Post some pics when you get a chance.

When you try and start it does it make clicking sound or when you try and start it everything goes dead?

its a catfish... it sits on the bottom swallowing mud and whatever junk it can find down there... I doubt you can change the taste of it aside from leaving it out in the sun for a few hours. You don't know just how uninformed that statement is. : That's what I was thinking. ;D I had a catfish crush a crankbait 5' below the surface in 15' of water. How about that for a bottom dweller. ;D

Loose ground wire, I just had this problem on the wife's SUV.

I have a 97 Johnson 200 and manual says to run 87. Since I have a 2 stroke I also run Johnson Carbon Guard and Sta-bil Marine.

That costume would fit in great here at the bars. ;D

I would ask him if you can take it for a ride, if he wants to sell it then he should let you. Look for soft spots on the floor, check the wiring make sure it's not all rotted out, make sure everything works properly and not hacked together. Good luck Simp.

Nice fish George.

I agree with you Catt. With all of this snow up here and Spring being here in 3 weeks. I'm trying to figure out if it's going to push spawn back a couple weeks or not. What do you guys think?
