Has Anyone Used The Havoc Backslide?
Yes, I tried them...for about 10 mins. and that was all I could stand. They have literally no action, although they do drift away from you as advertised. I just felt it looked like a dead stick falling in the water. I suppose it has it's time and place, but I would opt for a Slug-Go over this bait if I wanted a stick bait with little action. Just my personal preference.

The Ever Popular Fish Finder Question
Have you checked out the Raymarine Dragonfly? It should fit in your console, has crystal clear DSI, and costs less that other units. Not only that, but it's simple to use. Check out the other threads on this little gem on this site. It's worth looking into before you plunk your dollars down.

The Price Of Free Advertising
As a business owner that offers decals (stickers) for sale, I feel compelled to chime in here. First off, I offer decals because members have repeatedly asked for them. Not because I feel they're some marketing gimmick. As Matt said above, decals are not an impactful form of advertising. People like to show their affiliation with products/companies, and many members here are proud to display a BassResource decal on their truck/boat/trailer/wife's forehead, etc. I'm happy to incorporate the wishes of our cherished members. Again - they asked for it. Second, as a small business owner, I don't have the buying power to get discounts on huge volumes of decals. At a cost of $1 - $4 per decal on average (depending on size), I can't afford to give away hundreds of decals. In addition, when you add the mailing costs of $3-$8 per order, it adds up pretty quickly. So I "sell" them, but not at a profit, at cost. I'm just recuperating the expenses. As for our gigantic line of embroidered apparel that we sell - we get none of the money. None. Nada. Zero. Zip. The orders are made-to-order through a third party that handles it all for us, including shipping and customer service. It's a great small business just a couple miles away from us that offers outstanding, personalized customer service. Ensuring our members get top-notch quality and service is more important to me than making a buck off a shirt. As for our tournament jerseys - same deal there. We make zero dollars off every sale. We don't get a dime. Again, quality made-to-order garments from an outstanding company. Bottom line - it costs $$ to manufacture these items, and while larger companies might be able to absorb some of the costs (which I doubt, given the volume), small businesses like ours can't. So the costs are passed on to the consumer - at cost. If I could give it away, I would. But I don't have thousands of dollars of extra cash just laying around. I don't know anyone who does. Hopefully I've shed some light from the other side of the fence.

Site Issues
Our data center is currently experiencing network issues and they are working diligently to resolve the issue. This is causing intermittent connectivity issues today. Unfortunately we do not have an estimated time of resolution, but hope to have it fixed asap. Thanks for your patience. Glenn

Seller Rating System
No need to copy other forums when our system, which has been in place for many years, works fantastic! We are not even considering changing it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Stereo On A Boat? Yes Or No?
Having Sirius radio (stereo) in my boat was a requirement. Now I can fish and not miss any NASCAR races. Yes, I listen to music too, but sometimes I like to have it off and just listen to the sounds of nature. Whatever mood suits me. Yes, I have my cell phone with me at all times. Caller ID let's me know whether or not I want to take a call while I'm out on the water. But it's a must-have safety device in my mind.
