Completed another mid day session. Workout Day 1 always requires a good bit of focus & effort. #borninfiftynine https://youtu.be/Qa4cwm6bOik?feature=shared A-Jay

I hear you ~ In my mind, I'll Never Fall over the side. I'll Never get throw out of my driver seat to such an extent that I would need the ignition kill switch to deenergize my motor. I'll never get caught out in big water that could endanger me and my vessel. I'll never take on so much water that my hull would fill up. Finally, I'll NEVER HIT ANYTHING. And Yet . . . I wear a life Jacket. I use a kill switch lanyard. Have an installed & automatic bilge pump that I meticulously maintain. (should really have 2). I carry flares, day smoke, a suitable anchor with 175 ft of crazy strong anchor line and finally a Buoyant Personal Locator Beacon with GPS. And so I feel OK adding the leash. A-Jay

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ I am a spinnerbait user & abuser, especially the next several weeks. The local brown bass population here seems very receptive to a fast moving bait burned across a big flat. The SK Buner and Megabass V9 Double Willow have both been good for this. https://youtu.be/Z95g3H4qmp0?feature=shared&t=84 https://youtu.be/NpVmd8ll1Dg?feature=shared&t=169 A-Jay

Thanks. I appreciate the support and I will certainly reach out if I need to. Probably do a separate install thread just because it might help a few bassheads. A-Jay

Thanks I got Silver for the ProXS as well. I have a 6 inch manual jack plate but don't expect that to be a problem as long as the installed bolts are long enough to accommodate the Leach plate included with the kit. Here we go. A-Jay

Nice ~ Has to be the first Great Garbo reference I've seen here. She was really something. For a good 10 years preceding the Purchase of the Pro-V bass boat, I was strictly a canoe guy. Much of the best places included at least some type of portage, the longer and steeper the better. The Old Town comes in at a robust 120lbs without any gear, I will not admit to what I've loaded into it, but it's significant is it's heft. Had to upgrade my boat cart to accommodate such ambitiousness. But what's not to love ? Eagles, Loons, the sheer serenity of having the entire lake to oneself is almost spiritual. Had my wife with me a good bit of the time the first several years, except at night. (which is totally and far more intense deal, but still awesome). We had a ton of fun regardless of the fishing, but we did and I still do, catch a few. https://youtu.be/r3vHcCGTNTQ?feature=shared&t=150 A-Jay

Thank you very much @Glenn For taking the time to respond here. I've been on the fence about this deal for a while. Well the waffling is over for me. I feel better already. Should be here and installed in less than a week. Just like my life jacket, ignition kill lanyard and PLM, Hope we never need it. thanks again A-Jay

Good for you and to each his own. It's not the act itself that rubs me the wrong way, but the ricochet off the wind screen, followed by the bounce off the front carpet, ending with the slime removing brake dance the bass does after it's kicked into the cockpit area so that it doesn't go over the side if and when it comes unbuttoned, that just seems wildly unprofessional. So fish care then. A-Jay

I hate it when that happens ~ 🤓 A-Jay

Thanks. In the gym maybe, but not on the water fishing that format. I get to fish when and where I want. Changes things. I'd like to Marshall a contender on the last day though. First dude who boat flips a 6 lber, is going swimming. A-Jay

Randy B will surely let's us all know if it is. 😎 A-Jay

Hello Ron and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ Decent chance most any rattle (I like Glass) will do the job as long as it fits INTO the bait. After inserting a rattle, I'll slide in a custom cut to fit section of a foam ear plug to hold the rattle in place. Soaking the foam in your favorite 'scent' might help too. I use Megastrike. Good Luck A-Jay

I hear ya ~ Not really expecting anyone to have had a motor in their lap. Just looking to hear from any users and perhaps believers of this product. There's enough 'sponsored' opinions out there. But if we know anything about this BR forum, it's that eventually, the truth almost always comes out. A-Jay

Does anybody have first hand experience with this deal ? Did you complete the install yourself ? Does your rig have a Jack Plate ? Does the unit itself wear away at the motor where it makes contact ? Can someone hook a brother up ? A-Jay

Got a little bit of a late start but still managed to knock out Workout Day 5. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

Show me the Car Fax ~ A-Jay

Try turning the sleeve back into itself a couple of inches. Offers some room between the sleeve and the bait. Also, lure wraps are super helpful. Kastking makes a good one. A-Jay

Gramps knows what's up. A-Jay

Congrats ~ Sounds like it's working out. Now once it's done, Take that newly repaired ride straight to the dealer and TRADE IT IN ! Do Not Pass Go and do not collect $200. Good Luck A-Jay

I will go shallow when the bass are feeding shallow. Doesn't mean I always get them, but it does seems my odds of success go up a bit. Shallow for me is anything less than 15 ft depending on water clarity. Later summer sees me in stupid skinny water, 4 feet sometimes. Not a place many bassheads hunt trophy brown bass on Lake Menderchuck. Accordingly, I've has some very memorable mornings doing it. Fish Hard A-Jay https://youtu.be/sITpRNLz_04?feature=shared

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Workout Day 4 this morning. Keeping my nose to the grind stone. #borninfiftynine https://youtu.be/_M4t4j1Sw3g?feature=shared A-Jay

Workout Day 3 this morning. Had Birthday Cake with my pre training meal. I think it helped. #borninfiftynine A-Jay

This was the answer by the Rage Tail inventor and designer in 2011, and probably still is today. A-Jay
