Learn from others mistakes
Just wanted to post this to try and stop what happened to me today. I was launching early in the morning and it was foggy so i idles till the fog cleared. I got upto about 50 or so and saw a small fog patch and was like ill keep speed and pass through it quickly. Dont do this, just slow back to an idle! a pontoon boat with no lights was in the fog and i didnt see him till i was literly 20 feet directly behind it heading right at it. I swerved thanks to my partner yelling and barly missed it. Just trying to help others learn from my mistake so no body will die making the same mistake. I got very lucky.

Need Some Guidance
If you drop out then that will be a major wow moment when you look back. You will regret doing that. Stay in and find a major that you like. Your not always going to be motivated to do something but you just have to do it, dont quit just because its hard.

New Crankbait Rod
you dont need a super high end rod for crankbaits.
-
new dt colors
they are advertising it as out of stock.. they told me that repala gave them a date that the baits would be in and the baits never came on that date. Tackle warehouse is an amazing company so i doubt that its their fault.

How I Got My First
Ill add a little bit to this also. If a small just starting company takes you under their wing as a sponsor to you, then stick with them even though they are small. If they happen to make it big, there is a good chance that if they are good people that you will be rewarded for your loyalty.

more old pics
great photos, since im an ocean engineering major it is shocking at how much abuse a carrier can take before it submits to the sea. I once saw a show where they were showing that a carrier had 3, 2-5 foot sections of solid steel wrapped all the way around the bottem of the boat to protect from torpedoes. They also in the case of a breach had air pockets to keep the ship floating so the torpedo would have to go through all 3 to sink the ship.

new dt colors
if repala would keep their stuff in stock id be happy but when im waiting for 3 months for a biat i needed for a tournament 2.5 months ago its kinda makes me mad.

im suprised your skid fin didnt push the log under your prop.
-
Adding transom floatation
my nitro when it sits in the water then back is only about 1 inch off the water if that. you just have to gun it right when you see the wake coming back at the boat for a split second then this will stop the water from coming over.

Swimbait/Frog/Flip-Pitch Rod?
If i were you id look at getting a flip/pitch that would double as a frog rod and then get a swimbait rod. you will be much happier doing that.

new dt colors
The reason though that this got me mad is because i really wanted the lure for a tournament i was fishing and never did get it.

new dt colors
That doesn't necessarily mean that it's Rapala's fault. *** got on the phone with me and pretty much said they do not have the stuff because repala in not the best at shipping things in a timly manner.
