  1. OK to remove bench but you must make up for it with bracing to replace the structural integrity. Torsional twist can tweak an aluminum boat. When you build your compartments, make sure the framing goes completely from one side to the other to replace the bracing that the bench once supplied.
  2. and when you think you are fishing slow enough,....slow down some more.
  3. If not, I'm sure someone on here (like me) will get a bottle to you if you want it. X2- trig, if there are items you can't get, PM me, I'll help you out.
  4. So,...to fish Yamamoto's, I now need A. O-rings B. O-ring tool C. Glue Nah,....I think I'll stick with the ones that don't require additional purchases to use. 3 different accessories required to get the most expensive plastics to work as well and last as long as the affordable ones. I swear, the baitmonkey and Gary are partners. lol Not knocking Matt though, passing along info for the GYCB users, kudos.
  5. No significant other here,lol. Christmas and B-days are pretty much present-less these days. I'm sure I could talk MYSELF into something special though I plan on having Fletchero craft me a matching baitcaster for my Lake Fork rod as a x-mas present to "Me"
  6. BONANZA!!!! Now THERE'S a memory!! I concur-Deadwood-pretty good
  7. Yea,...that was great,...nothing I like more when I have about 135-140 stops left on my truck is a "Good Buddy" calling in a report,lmao. It's not you Muddy, EVERYONE does it. Some just whistle the theme song to Andy Griffith till they can't hold the laugh any longer. Friends : This one was different though,...nothing better than putting together a pattern man. way to go.
  8. I have been averaging 1 to 2 MK endura 55's PER YEAR for the last 3 yrs. Enough is enough. First the speed switch in the handle goes and if you don't replace it ($40 if u do yourself) then it somehow screws up other things that make the whole unit turn into a smoke bomb at 3am. But only on the day that the paddle is in the "other" boat,lol. I'm very hard on equipment.
  9. the Ika isn't a tube. It has a solid body.
  10. Today is the day Ed goes in to donate a kidney for his sister Maureen. Let's all keep him in our prayers today. Good luck guys
  11. Email sent to his site.
  12. If you weren't nervous, I'd be worried. It's probably the biggest decision of your life. GOOD LUCK !!!
  13. This site is unique because it's actually both. It's a Bass Resource.
  14. Can't really blame him for being off to the right a bit,.....maybe he had trolling motor issues......... ;D : 8-)
  15. Indeed,..... Joe- Where are you in Ct?? Tin2win will be competing in your hood a lot next year.
  16. Matt- Mike and I got to chatting about you. I explained where you were and where you are and he was blown away. Don't discount yourself, you've had some hogs on this year, landing them will come with experience but finding them is the hard part. You've come a long way in a short time, I think that learning the jig FIRST has made you better than you think you are. You can now apply that jig knowledge to many other baits. Our girls are in for some battles next year! Mike,...it was (cough) 10 to 4 (cough) lol.....but as you'll constantly remind me,....you got the big one.
  17. That's a great northern bass! I would guess it's on the 4 lb line, could fall to either side.
  18. lol,....Dave IS the shop!! Nice piece of work RM!!
  19. Thanks guys. We tried to make this one a little "lighter". So how many country lovin' folk have I annoyed with a rap song?? lol Hang tough, I'll get to a country one done,....promise.
  20. Awesome,...get those pics developed!!
  21. I use spinning about 75% of the time. The only thing I disagree with is when folks say that casting is stronger ,....getting fish out of weeds/brush, etc. Nonsense. I have spinning reels that will pull a boat! I would upgrade the spinning set up and keep putting time in on the baitcaster. You'll know when you are at a level where it is justified to upgrade that combo.
  22. It ain't you,....have you seen your old avatar??? You may wanna skip the sticker and go right for the banner,lol. ;D 8-)
