As every one here knows I fish Toledo Bend which one of the biggest lakes in the USA and I generally fish from a small (16-18') boat. Yes you can fish big water in a smaller boat, how boat handles rough water has to do with the driver more than the boat. I've been in 19 to 22' boats where I was totally wet and absolutely miserable because the driver didn't know how to drive under adverse conditions. With smaller boats you learn when to get off the lake and how to trailer to different launches instead of trying to run the lake. I would highly recommend the 75 hp outboard this would assure you get maximum performance out of the hull.

My #1 seller is a Remington 870 Express 12 gauge, 28" barrel, with a Modified Rem Choke at $189.00

My biggest seller at Academy this holiday season has been Magnum Research's Baby Eagle (built by the Israelis) available in 9 mm, .40 S & W, and .45 ACP

With a Jon boat it really isn't necessary to install cleats, just use the bow eye and the rear lift handles as LBH has stated.

LBH, aluminum is too slick for fiberglass to adhere to; while you don't want to remove a lot of metal you do want the sand paper to make small groves in the metal. If the resin/hardener is properly mixed and applied in a timely manner you should not be experiencing cracking. Most problems people have when applying fiberglass is operator error, there is a technique to properly applying fiberglass but it is not that difficult to master. Far cracks in aluminum I always recommend welding over any type of patch but again there are techniques required to achieve proper results

If I'm careful and the item isn't too awkard i'm good to lift about 20 pounds Huh does this mean you can lift a 20 pound bass? :-/

The has been a major disconnect! When most people talk boat cleats this is what they mean When I talk boat cleats this is what I mean

I would have to respectfully disagree as with any product you'll find people of love the product and people who hate the product. I've had nothing but excellent experiences with Boyesen reeds but I will add my experience is with smaller engines 25/75 hp outboards and 125/500 cc dirt bikes.

I carry 8-12 Spinner Baits & 6 Buzz Baits 8-)

Mini Rat-L-Traps = Many Bass 8-) They work on schooling bass which are usually smaller bass.

Sounds like your sleazy attempt at arousing sympathy to garner a few more invites worked ;D Hang tuff big guy, we're pulling for you

In the front I tie my anchor rope to the bow eye and in the rear mount 2 ea cleats to the corner brace.

That would be correct, motor included 8-)

Cool 8-)

Aluminum: Xpress Fiberglass: Stratos Both offer complete packages in that price range

How Y'all Are? 8-)

Flat bottom or V-bottom?

There are certain things about bass fishing that man will never completely understand and color is one of them. Color is affected by light and as RoLo stated Lighting conditions change within a single retrieve.

I agree with Ronnie I own a Ruger Super Blackhawk .44 Magnum 7 ½ barrel, twice I had to pull it for personal protection and both times the looks alone stop the individuals. If you decide on a large caliber handgun have it Mag-na-ported; Rifle style Mag-na-porting consists of two traditional trapezoidal ports and two oval ports cut into the sides of the barrel. This style of porting is available on barrels of 7 1/2 inches or longer and recommended for the handgun hunter and larger calibers. The side ports help by providing additional reduction in recoil and aid in barrel stability.
