Last year I bought the XPS® i 5/5 battery charger and it worked fine up until last week when i went to plug it in and there is no power.... I tried plugging it into several different outlets etc and there is nothing there no lights lighting up no charging of the batteries...anyone know if there is a fuse other than the ones on the wires i can check or a reset breaker? THanks

You should try out the Jigs from Knuckle down Lures. They are made very well and at a good price. They also offer the living image skirt. A huge variety of skirt colors to choose from.

Im gonna wait til the spring classic sale at either BPS & Cabelas, hopefully they will be a few dollars off.

I got these jigs from a fellow fisherman on mine from stanley bait co. Since then they must have discontinued this and now for the past year i can not find it anywhere. i bought 25 a couple years ago, now i am down to 2. It is very unique. i have contacted stanley and they dont have it. i was told that maybe a stanley dealer can get them. thanks!

I have had a lot of success this year using the flukes around the spawn when you can sight fish for both males and females, I caught a ton of them rigged weightless and using the "bubblegum" color. Twiching it like crazy, skipping it up under things, and mostly irratating them until they move it away from the beds. A good fast hook set, you got em.

Looking to see who likes/dislikes their fenwick rods. I am looking into buying a bunch of HMX's or the HMG's to replace my current spinning rods. Also looking for a flipping stick, im looking at the Allstar, Berkley series one, and fenwicks (HMX & HMG) due to the fact a buddy is getting them for me half off. THanks for all the input.

Well i see that your are the president of HPBB, so im sure you are a great contact to get in a bass club down here. Also if you have the time as i mentioned before, i wouldnt mind anything you can tell me about these lakes, it will give me a head start studying, learning spots on these lakes.

Yeah, I plan to pick up the Triton w/ 125 merc. in January sometime. I think he will have it especially with the way the economy is. He told me before he sold it to anyone, he would give me a call if it is before middle of january. Im gonna keep my Sea Nymph, I would like to fish Wilhelm & Arthur a lot. Since I live in Cranberry, its not a far drive afterwork at all. My wife and i love to fish so i can basically go anytime afterwork & weekends. I can work any hours I want at my job (as long as i get 40 hrs a week in), so i can make plenting of time to fish. What lakes do you fish in this area? Are you in a bass club. Im originally from the Johnstown area, so i fish raystown a lot. You got any good lake information for Wilhelm, Arthur, Shenago river lake, or the rivers? im looking for any information i can get to get started fishing down here. once i get familiar with these lakes, ill join one of the local bass clubs.

Thanks for the advice, thats the same thing a buddy told me to do. I might now keep my Sea Nymph with the 15 hp, its the same thing as a bass tracker bass boat just a little more narrow which i have customized it with an extended deck etc. With that smaller boat, it gets on plain fine and the motor runs great. I am currently talking to a guy in Va that has a 2002 Triton TR17 w/ 125 Merc. He is asking 7500 and it looks to be spotless.

Does anyone out there have this boat with a 90 hp? Just want to get some reviews on what people think of it. For a 17'6 boat, it seems to be a good deal.

I am purchasing my second boat this spring and I'm not sure what to do. I live in an area with 3 very well-known local lakes and the "3" Rivers within an hour drive with awesome bass fishing. The problem is 2 of the 3 lakes have a 20 hp restriction. The other lake and rivers are unrestricted. I want to start fishing local tournaments, but im not sure what to do about my boat situation. I have a 1996 Sea nymph 16' alum. bass boat with a 15 hp. I want to upgrade to a wider all-around bigger boat to fish out of that can handle all of my equipment along with better fishability. My Sea nymph is really naroow (beam 61"). A lot of people are buying the Bass Tracker 175 w/ a 20-25 hp restriction. The problem is thats a big boat for such a small motor. With the hp retriction, speed is not the most important thing, i just want to make sure its just enough. I am really looking for opinions on the bass tracker & other boats I should look into. I also thought about the G3 fish eagle 175. The last possibility is keeping the Sea Nymph and investing the money in a new or used fiberglass boat with a 90 or 115. I have thought about the Stratos 275xl, Ranger 170vs or 177vs, Triton 17 Explorer. Thanks!

Well if you were to compare the Premier & the Mojo, is there a big difference? Basically, there is a $20-$40 depending on which model you choose.

What auction site are you referring to? Ebay?

Thanks those articles help, I think they are basically the same rod as the premier, but with a little more appeal. Nice feeling rod. I may pick one up or spend a little more on a crucial or carrot stick. Not sure which like more.

I saw this rod at Bass Pro Shops yesterday and i was wondering if anyone has this rod or know anything about it. Did this rod replace the Triumph series? It seems nicely made for the price (100.00).

I think I am most concerned about the memory of the Fluoro line being on a reel over the winter (PA Weather - NO fishing for me for 3 months)

The reason is with the cost every year to replace braided line on 4-5 rods, fluoro on 4 rods, it is an expensive thing to do. im not real concerned about mono, its pretty cheap. Power pro and a decent fluoro can add up each year.

Does everyone re-spool all of there rods every year? Out of Braid, Fluoro, & Mono, can any of them last on a reel for more than a year?

I have the oppertunity to get great deals on fishing equipment this year (50% off) from a friend who owns a bait shop. The deal includes fenwick, berkley, Abu Garcia, etc. Last year i bought 6 Revos and Berkely series one rods to go with them among other tackle. THis year i want to buy additional equipment. If you were to choose between the Berkley series one rod & Fenwick HMG, which would you go with? Has anyone used the Series One? I really like them, but I wonder if the fenwick would be better. He reccommended the Series one for the money.

Looking for opinions on the best fluoro lines for dropshotting, I am currently using Gamma Edge which I really like, but it is expensive.

Looking for opinions on the perfect shakey head worm. I like to use the Roboworm FX straight tail. what about you guys?
