  1. senko worm or shad shape worm
  2. the pond prowler boats fit perfectly between the wheel wells in my pickup truck, i would think since this is how most people transport them the bass raider boats would be made them same.if your not in a hurry to buy a boat check Craig's list occasionally you might find a deal.
  3. i think you would be happy with either boat.to me they seem similar.i have two 10 ft pond prowlers and they are comfortable and sturdy and easy for me to load in the back of my truck.i cant think of any negatives about them.
  4. i don't own a 230XS but i have two 180 xls that i have had for a couple years.i use them all the time , Ive never had a problem with either of them.
  5. welcome from willow springs.
  6. first of all Ive never had a custom fishing rod built and was wondering what the advantage of going to someone to build you one ,especially with all the rods that are on the market .would it be cheaper? more sensitive? the reason i was asking i see a local guy who always has an ad in the paper every week and always wondered what the benefits.
  7. google quick lift boat dolly .looks like a handy thing.
  8. freedom hawk kayaks makes a nice looking rig.
  9. i would think working for the post office is a good job. probably better job than alot of us have right now ,me included .i cant believe some goof would risk that .
  10. you guys are some tough fisherman .i need to travel more. I'm in Illinois and i always figured some of us in the Midwest would get snow before alot of you other guys ,yet we have had nothing .i guess i could try shore fishing in those temps, but that's because i could hop in the car when i get cold, but to be on a boat out in the water .wow ! it sounds painful.
  11. i read this morning in the paper that ten of thousands of fish were killed and so far one Asian carp found dead .they really didn't have much choice with so much to lose .hopefully they haven't made it into lake Michigan
  12. go ahead and post some pictures steezy you have some nice equipment ,you work hard for what you have like the rest of us .it was around 36 today here in Illinois, i couldn't talk myself into going out fishing either.
  13. does your husband post on here regularly .the reason i was asking because not to long ago under the everything else heading .some asked ,what do you guys want for Christmas i was thinking maybe your husband was one of the guys who responded and spilled out his christmas wish list.otherwise like the others said ,we all like a bps gift card.
  14. Ive never been to Texas and always thought you guys would be safe from snow ii give you credit for going fishing ,i had today off and i couldn't talk myself into going out shore fishing the highs are around 36. this cold weather messes with my concentration .if you go out i wish you good luck.
  15. i had read that so far no Asian carp have shown up dead mostly drum and channel catfish so hopefully they haven't reached lake Michigan.
  16. i was thinking of making a stabilizer rudder for fishing on windier days with my pond prowler. the boat is 10 ft long . anybody have any idea of what dimensions it should be, Ive never seen one before to go off of.
  17. aceman387 replied to Tin's topic in Everything Else
    wow! i was all geared up for a war of a game .i was surprised that it wasn't even close.
  18. i love those boats i have two pond prowler boats at two different locations chained up.they are comfortable and easy for me to throw in the back of my truck for whenever i want to try somewhere new.this winter i want to make some kind of dolly or rig up some wheels for it and maybe make a stabilizer rudder for it because you do get blown around . it looks like paradise where your daughter lives ,if i were you i wouldn't leave until she asks you too
  19. i almost went for a laptop at walmart myself .i kept thinking about it all night .in the end i couldn't justify buying a new one when all my old one needs is the dc plug to get soldered .but i kept waking up and looking at the clock during the night ,I'm glad you grabbed one for your son.
  20. this site helps me catch more fish and also cracks me up alot . like now. what more could you ask for. happy thanksgiving to everybody.
  21. don't look now but the rain is back,at least close by Chicago.gray skies and rain . thank god for bass resource.
  22. what great news to hear especially going in to the holidays.I'm happy for you and hope you have a great thanksgiving.
  23. i had a couple of them and never had any problems with them i used them for a couple years ,the reason i sold them was i didn't care for the v shape bottom with my fishing gear sliding to the center .i prefer a flat bottom like a Jon boat or my pond prowler which is what i have now.
  24. i just looked up the flashlight on cabela's website it had over 150 reviews. some guys would give it great reviews, some guys say don't waste your money it doesn't work ,i didn't expect such mixed reviews.
  25. I HAVE A 10 FT POND PROWLER BOAT I BOUGHT FROM BPS AND FOR A MOTOR I HAVE A 30 #THRUST BOW MOUNT TROLL MOTOR THATS OVER 20 YEARS OLD BUT STILL WORKING I SAW ON BPS SITE MOTORGUIDE MAKES A BULLDOG TRANSOM MOUNT FOOT OPERATED TROLL MOTOR FOR SMALL BOATS LIKE MINE, ITS GOING FOR $375.00 SO IT ISINT CHEAP . THIS IS THE ONLY BOAT IVE OWNED AND I GET BLOWN AROUND PRETTY EASY I WAS GONNA INVEST IN A WIND SOCK AND MAYBE THIS MOTOR.IVE NEVER HAD A FOOT OPERATED TROLL MOTOR BEFORE AND WAS WONDERING SOME OF THE BENEFITS BESIDES FREEING UP MY HANDS SO I CAN FISH MORE. I WAS WONDERING WHAT SOME OF THE OTHER BENEFITS ARE?
