Insight Genesis Questions
I was experimenting on downloading multiple maps on the card last night and it can be done. Each time I download a map I will get about 6 files that includes; 3 map files, an *.at file, a permit file, and the contour file. I found out I would have to load all of these for each area. For the files with similar names, I would have the PC number them 1,2,3 and so on. On my Elite 7 HDI, only the downloaded maps would display on my chart; the base map is gone. This is kinda annoying since I can't keep the card in the unit and go speeding off to a different body of water.

How Much Boat Can I Fit Into 18 Feet?
That sounds pretty pricey to store a boat. What is a tilt trailer??? I Googled it and it looks like something for cars.

How Much Boat Can I Fit Into 18 Feet?
I live in community controlled by a Home Owners Assoc. They don't allow storage of boats out in the open. I have a short 2 car garage that is 18 ft in length. Considering everything, the motor, boat, and trailer tongue, what is the maximum size jon boat am I looking for? P.S. - This must go straight in. Cannot have it go in diagonal or my wife will hang my nuts out.

Is Tungsten Weights Wroth The $
A cheap alternative: My buddy drills a hole down the middle of a copper jacketed bullet and uses that as a "bullet weight". He let me try one and it was a lot more sensitive than lead. I'm not sure if it is just as sensitive than tungsten since I've never tried one.

Looking For A Good Fish Scale
I have the Berkley. Works awesome! I hook mine under the gill plate, making sure there are no gills under the hook. No problems so far.

Scent
I use Spike-it in a bottle. It seems like years ago, before JJ's came along, this was the Stuff. Since then, the formula has changed and smells more like acetone than garlic, etc. I notice that whenever I use this, a lot of my hooksets are deeper in the mouth.

Any Suggestions For Replacing Treble Hooks On Crankbaits?
Sounds like you need a treble with an extra short shank. I'd recommend the Mustad KVD hooks. They probably have the shortest shank available. These are also the Triple Grip design and are stickier than any other treble I've tried. They're expensive, but well worth it! I've written about my search for the perfect treble in my blog.

Carolina Rigs?
The C-rig gets it action from the weight getting caught and pulled free along the bottom. The longer and the lighter the leader you have the more action you will have. I like using lizards, curly tail worms, and flukes with this setup. I will fish the C-rig when reaction baits don't work and when there is texture on the bottom to "catch" the weight, such as rocky bottoms, sparse grass, and humps. Use no less than 1/2 oz egg sinker.
