This seems decent ~ A-Jay

Aluminum & Magnesium Frames routinely deliver serious cranking power, they also provide the rigidity and durability to stand up to season after season of use - Graphite frames these days are Lighter and more advanced than ever before, they are greatly reduce in overall weight, while still maintaining incredible rigidity and strength. This material is impervious to rust, making it a great choice for fishing saltwater or brackish water. So there are pros & con's for both including price point. Only you can decide what's best for you & your fishing. I have & use both A-Jay

That's a Hawg - In Training. Congrats A-Jay

Nice Stick ~ Congrats A-Jay

I'd say it's Toast Bud. You could cut it down and put a tip on the end but it will not fish the same. What rods was it ? (brand & model) Wait a minute - I just looked at the pic again. If the blanks isn't damaged, it's only a matter of gluing on a new tip top and cleaning up off the blank area of that second ring and spinning on a new guide - Easy. Mudhole tackle has everything you need - shot money. A-Jay

Talon offers tilt brackets. I have & use them to get in & out of my boat garage as well. http://www.minnkotamotors.com/Products/TALON-TILT-BRACKET/ A-Jay

This one is part of the set of 9 boxes that came with the Lund Pro-V bass's Pop-Up Tackle System - Kind of generic - Mid-range quality but gets the job done. They are 3700 size. btw - I didn't throw up a pic but there's another one of these sporting a load of 3/4 RES waiting for ice out. A-Jay

Hello Chris and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Unfortunately, I can't be of much assistance in securing a spot as a co-angler for that KY Lake tourney. However, Welcome to Bass Resource and Good Luck on the water. A-Jay

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Hello Taylor and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ A-Jay

Congrats on the boat purchase ~ Have fun getting to know your new rig. A-Jay

And as long as it's just the bait that's colored Dirty Sanchez - I think you're good. A-Jay

That's a nice problem to have ~ Congrats. btw ~ What was the water temp ? A-Jay

I can relate to most all of this and although my own personal grey matter may have greater mass, I might not be using as much of it as I would like. Sort of evens the playing field if you know what I mean. A-Jay

Hello and Welcome to Bass Resource ~ My input is - Buy a Minn Kota or a Motorguide Just so it doesn't "Costway" more in the long run. A-Jay

Hello Matt Welcome to Bass Resource from up in Otsego County ~ A-Jay

Those baits have a salt impregnated ElaZtech body ~ so removing all the salt might be a little tricky. Although it does look like you did manage to get most of it. Nice job. A-Jay

The bass don't really seem to mind but the cashier at the Quik Mart certainly had a lot of questions .. .. .. A-Jay

Blasting across open water means I get to do my best Peter Parker impersonation. A-Jay

I'm calling this one The Sargento Rig. The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. A-Jay

Congrats on the new Rig. Best of luck to you. A-Jay
