1986 Bassmaster Classic.
I'm pretty sure the book Bass Wars goes through the whole year of 86' including the classic. It's a very good read.

Misshapen Plastics?
They have great customer service, I'm sure they'll make it right.

Is this deal worth it?
For $150 it's a steal. Batteries cost $75-$100 ea. A used trolling motor is worth at least $50-$100, plus all the rest and the boat.

New bait
Looks good. Nice paint.

Lure company seconds???
Grey Wolf is 100% on this. Go used, classifieds or ebay. I find online forums and classifieds have been better than ebay as of late. Ebay still has some good deals, but you have to weed through and get lucky.

Anyone own a fishing game for their Wii
My son says, Rapala Pro Bass Fishing 2010. The Bass Pro The Strike was also very good. I played that with him a few times.

Re: Can I test you guy's new lures
Did a little research and basslover has a webpage. It doesn't give his age, but it does say how he runs a middle school fishing club. I know my son is really into fishing (he's 15) and it keeps him out of trouble. I think he just needs a little forum guidance.

A couple new baits

Size wire
Gman, I start with hobby store wire on spools, but went to .025 stainless wire. Bends and twists real nice.

TackleWarehouse Excellent Customer Service
I ordered some skirt material about 3 weeks ago and only got around to making them this weekend. I come to find out one of the packs is the wrong color. Mislabled by the manufacturer, not TW's fault. I explained what happened in an e mail and get a response this morning that their shipping a new pack out, no questions asked. Great customer service.

25hp Electric start or 30HP Pull start?
Had an older 25 Evinrude electric start. Best move I ever made. I don't think the 5 hp will make that big a difference.

Jigging Rap
Been using them for deep water smallies for years. Guess the secrets out now. When the Buddy bite stops, you can normally add a few more with these.

Birthday gifts!
You must have told her what you would like. If not, bet you can't wait until Christmas.

Spinnerbait storage
Like you mentioned a worm wallet/binder works well. Some companies make one specific to spinnerbaits, but any will work. It keeps them neat, untangled and takes up little space. I do one for spinnerbaits and one for buzzbaits. If you dont carry a ton of baits, they stay relatively compact. There are also plastic Plano/Falcon boxes that do the job, but I've noticed in the boat if they get shook up or turned over, you still have a mess. You could also just put them in individual ziplocks and keep them in the bag you have.

striped bass tips please
Here in ny and ct we get them in the rivers on flukes and sluggos. In the salt water poppers and larger jerkbaits, like bomber A Salt work well.

Hand poured/ Hales craw worm style
Seems everything that works for me goes this way. Hales Craw, Berkley 4" finesse worms and Culprit finesse worms All great baits, but hard to find anymore.
