Thanks for the info, Ill check into it.

Just picked up a 12ft flatbottom and I want to paint it Olive drab but am having a hard time finding what I need. Mostly seeing 12oz cans which would cost a small fortune and take forever. I have a gun here I use for body work and what not on vehicles so I rather just get it by the quart and spray it on. I found some stuff on BPS but they offer no info on it. Anyone used it or know of a Olive Drab paint that can be sprayed through a gun? Any help is greatly appreciated. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_87303____SearchResults

^^^^^^ That is the best Ford money can buy.

Nothing wrong with keeping a few for yourself once in a while. Not like its illegal.

Nice boat, I'd like to find something like that in the next couple years but for now I'll have to stick with my aluminum flat bottom boat.

I'm not for sure but I'm sure the marker smell would be pretty potent. I know one of those markers with the cap off for more than 5 minutes gives me a headache.

I wouldn't dare go out for a tournament like that without a net. I would agree with the angler having to land his own fish but as for no net, not a smart idea.

If you can afford about $65 I picked up a nice Abu Garcia Cardinal spinning reel with Fenwick rod at Wal-Mart. Rod is a MH which is what I like the best and reel had 7 bearings. Very nice for the money.

Couple questions, whats a rod like that cost, and why the FC leader over mono? How long did it take to land that fish?

I just picked up one of these myself a week ago. Haven't used it yet but seemed like a bargain at $24.99, sounds like I made a good choice.

Salmon are starting to run in the river around here and I was thinking of trying some Power Pro 50lb or something like that for them. Question is being a leader is need with this stuff, say I were to run 20lb mono or floro what strength do I actually have at the knot? I know different knots have different breaking strengths but whats the point in 50lb braid if you only have 20lb hold your lure on? Last salmon I had on broke my line at the lure with 20lb mono.

....on a BRAND NEW reel that hasn't even been spooled yet? No way I'd send it off for warranty repair. I agree with this. No way would I buy something brand new and send it out for warranty work and I wouldn't even go as far to even try and grease it either, should preform like brand new from the box, not after you mess with it for a while. I'd go back to the store and swap it out for a Abu Garcia.

I'm in Newaygo which is about midway in the state on the west side. There are a few here and there but not real heavy yet. I hear a few guys that went up north used a single salmon egg (plastic) to catch the ones they got. I also know a guy who does pro bass fishing and he went salmon fishing a week ago and bought a bunch of hot n tots and wiggle warts in silver and firetiger color.

I'll add another for Cavitron although I did buy a couple Boo-Yah baits the other day, have yet to catch anything with them though.
