Needing Some Help
Or find something like this jon boat. This is my brother's that he is working on. It's a Lowe's 16' and I believe it's 5' wide. This just might be your best bet on a jon boat if can find one like this. That's the link to his pics and topic.

Needing Some Help
It not removed it should be a tag on boat listing capacity. Maybe the seller can tell you if still on or give model number and maybe there will be somewhere online where you can find out. On my Tracker 14 the tag is in front of the back seat and it's a 3 person or 375 weight capacity, 15 hp. On my 15' Thundercraft it's rated for 900 pounds and a 90 hp motor.

Needing Some Help
To me if just looking for a regular jon boat 4 people is allot but I would try to get something no smaller than 14 and possibly 55lb trust trolling motor. Not sure if with 4 people if I wouldn't go smaller unless running two a one time but with that more power but more weight. Also make sure you pay attention to the weight and don't try to over exceed it. One more thing if trying to craiglist a boat keep an eye out on some fiberglass or aluminum V-haul or a tri haul like my 15' Thundercraft. Allot of times you can find them cheap with out motors or even with them.

Senkos In Murky Water
Also if can find this color This became my go to color Senko Plum Apple. I buy mine from Dicks around my way. Funny how I had a pack of these fro like two years and finally thought to toss it out this year. I was fishing a always murky pond filled with grass and lilies. I decided to wacky in front of the lilies and landed me a 4.9 and a 3.4 that day. Seemed to be only thing that work and color choice also. I did land a small bass on black/blue laminate but for my other colors nothing. I tried purple/emerald flakes(june bug supposedly ), watermelon red, and a few others with no luck. Also I tried frogs, chatterbaits, C-rigs with no luck near the outside of the lilies. I also landed a 4.8 on plum apple at huntingrun as well. It's definitely my color far as producing but I don't shy away from trying others either. Just as of now been the choice they preferring when I'm out. Also could be your rigging style as well try wacky next time! If not sure about that style guys like Sam and Wayne P are just a PM away. Great guys with helpful info.

Swinging Fish
Exactly what I do Either lip( no gators here), grab line, or use my gripper for fishes with teeth like bowfin. I have a net but rarely use it. I just never think about it.

Topwater Frogs
From what I heard about shrinking the skirt it was for walking purposes but your logic could be good as well. Which to the original thread starter if want to know about this as well there is videos on youtube, Glenn can explain as well, plus many others. They claim Kopper's frog you don't need to trim it walks fine out the pack. I need to get the Midnight walker.

First Baitcaster
You might be thinking of the Extreme rod but the bionic blade seem to have a decent review so I would think it would be good for now till your ready to update later. My advice just keep the receipt. You should have a 1 year in store warranty for just incase but if you did use your reward card they should be able to pull up your sale by using that. That's how I return my brother's Carbonlite and got my receipt for my Pro Qualifier when lost it.

Fishing The Back Of Boat
If all else and if you don't mind let him try up front. My brother never indicated he wanted to and I want to teach my wife how to work up front. My brother working of his jon boat so I might just find myself in the back,lol.
-
Fishing The Back Of Boat
It depends in what position your put in. I try my best to position the side ways like so we both have an opportunity. There are times where fishing from the back out fishes from the front. My brother beats me out on numbers sometimes and not to long ago st13john a member here was beat out by his buddy. Now if your both fishing maybe same technique or even different but the man up front(if have the controlling power with the motor) puts only himself in the best position possible than maybe. On my boat I control the front but there is a trolling motor in the back where my brother or even wife uses to help themselves if needed to get in position. I try my best to make it fair and equally fun fishing in my boat no matter who's in front or back.

Senko Prices Have Risen Like Gas Prices
But that's the Gander mountain brand correct? It's an excellent deal if you like that brand of stick worm.

Hula Popper Question
I like it can't say how effective it is but it did land me a 3.5lber. This was a 3 years back. Lately I haven't used much topwater. I use the coach dog with the orange belly. It landed the 3.5 for me. I love their loud bloop it gives from wide mouth the hula poppers have. Rebel poppers are good too if never use of them. I had luck with the black/silver. Here are the reviews for the hula popper on BPS if it helps any. http://www.basspro.com/Arbogast%C2%AE-Hula-Popper%C2%AE/product/15534/-252151#reviews

Line Twisting
Hope this helps! Other than this, that's all I know. I never had a problem on baitcasters but I get line twist on my spinning gear. I just try to do what I read somewhere dealing with line twists and trolling off your line in the water and then reel it back in but I do think my main problem is over filling with flouro on my spinning gear!

Baits For 5'6" Light Rod?
http://www.amazon.com/Yo-Zuri-Aile-Goby-Lures-Color/dp/B000LF32JA I have this just haven't used much but perch does love it. Small bombers maybe?? When I'm bored and catching dinks for the day I tie on a wacky rig on my 5' ultra lite and go to town. Mine has 6# test on it. I landed a 2 1/2# bowfin on that setup but that was with a real worm and bobber.
