Rage Tail Challenge
Haven't tried the craws, yet. I haven't caught anything on the Rage Hawg. The Annoconda only catches walleye so it is not a bass bait. I am in need of trailers and will pick up a pack or two just to appease RW

What Is The Best Way To Kill A Fish?
Bang on the head. If I'm going to bleed them, I cut the tail off while the fish is alive and let the heart pump the blood out of them.

Different Results With Same Lure
Do what I do. Don't fish buzzbaits. Put on a jig and all your problems will go away.

Bass Boat In Salt Water?
Be aware of the weather. Guys fish out of bass boats on the Great Lakes all the time. You may want to consider a muskie/walleye boat also.

Boat Costs
X2 The other thing you'll notice about boats on CL is the good boats for a good buy get scooped up quickly and there are alot of "Too good to be true" boats which are just that. I spent 6 months looking for a 14-16' jon for my son last year (I refuse to let him take out my boat unsupervised). I found a refurbished 15hp motor that I got for a steal...but no boat. They were either too expensive or had stuff wrong with them. Don;t get discouraged. You'll find something.

Other Species Id (Pics)
J Franco, I know you can differentiate the male and female of the salmonoids by the jaw. Extends past the eye it's a male if it doesn't it's a female. Would you or anyone else know if that applies to other fish species?

Bass Pro Master Catalog 2012?
BPS can't be monetarily competitive with TW or BTD. They have stores nationwide and empoly thousands of people. Overhead means higher costs. They probably push their own brand because the markup is at a higher percentage. BPS also has the ability to sell clothing and boats and firearms which increases their target market tenfold. The other plus about having a physical location to shop at is you get to hold the rods and reels and see how they feel as well as look at the lures to see actual sizes and colors rather than a 1d pic on the computer screen. Those extra "perks" cost money. For me I spend more money shopping online but would much rather go into the big box stores to shop. I also am fortunate to have a Cabelas 10 minutes from the house and 2 BPS less than 45 minutes away. Have used Cabelas for alot of "in a pinch" purchases, especially stuff for the boat. Wouldn't want it any other way.

How To Vent/ground Gas Tank
I'm no engineer but seems that would act similar to cowl induction on a muscle car. Multiple scoops in line with each other would cause a backpressure forcing air into the compartment. Same thing the windshield on the car does.
