Grey Wolf

I have fished out of a 17' bass tracker with the same diminsions of the Lowe's your looking at . We fished OHIO RIVER and large lakes with no problems at all. If your getting a good deal, go for it . The boat will serve you well.

Reading this forum and keeping an open mind .

WELCOME!!!!!!!

Welcome to the best fishing forum on the net. You will get the info your looking for . I'm sure ROAD WARRIOR will chime in soon on small mouth in rivers. He fishes for them on the Tenn. River.

Chris, thanks for a very informative article . You noted a few things that has opened my eyes about retrieving cranks and I sure appreciate it.

You handled it correctly. You just don't know if idiots like that are packin or not. They may have been doing that on purpose , trying to pick a fight or are just so d**n stupid that they just didn't know any better. There are more important issue's you will have that you will have to stand your ground on. This wasn't one of them.

WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think you'll enjoy it here.

Versitility is my weakness. I depend way too much on cranks and spinner-baits. I've got to use plastics more.

Welcome aboard !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From what you are saying , I would say the other boater was out of line.

WELCOME BOONE . I HEAR YOU ARE A BIG KISTLER FAN. I'M THINKING ABOUT BUYING A SPINNING ROD LATER THIS YEAR AND KISTLER RODS ARE DEFINATELY ON MY LIST.

Keep it simple . for carp use canned corn , fish them on the bottom. for cats , use chicken livers , also on the bottom.

THE TRACKER IS JUST NOT WIDE ENOUGH , VERY UNSTABLE. ALMOST LIKE A CANOE . I LIKE A BOAT WITH A MINUMINUM WIDTH OF AT LEAST 48". DO YOU INTEND TO USE THE BOAT ON SMALL WATERS ? IF SO THE SCORPIO IS THE BOAT I'D BUY OUT OF THESE THREE BOATS . I WOULDN'T WANT TO USE ANY OF THEM ON A LARGE BODY OF WATER.

Believe aquatic birds such as herons , will bring differant fish eggs into the quarry. When they are wading in a lake , the eggs will get attached to their feet or legs and they are unwittingly transported to another body of water.

Are you talking about catching carp , catfish or bass? You are not real clear on what your trying to say.

When do you fish , early morning , during the day , late evening ?Low light conitions , use an amber color , sunny conditions use grey color. Are you only interested in the coastal del mar glasses? Go to WWW.LUREEYES.COM .They have excellant glasses for 120.00 .

One way to solve your delima if you fish out of a boat , is to have at least four rods rigged for differant techniques (soft plastics , cranks , spinner-baits , top water) , don't leave your spot until you have thrown all your set-ups , this should help you put bass in the boat and to set a pattern for the fish.

Shamino twintowers.

ANY WHERE FROM 2 - 12 HOURS. The situation dictates how long I'm on the water.

PALOMAR!!!

Tie your line directly to the bait. I use a palomar knot.

NWGABASSMASTER............You do have to admit that it might be a little easier to remove a hook from a LARGE-MOUTH than a crappie. Now with that said , be assured if the hook is in a vital area , I just cut the line just like you.

If you are using spinning gear , it wouldn't hurt to tie one on to help reduce line twist.

The last bass that I hooked deep , I was able to cut the hook off and take it out without any apparent trauma to the bass.
