Thanks for the input been searching the forums now...had IE problems for a few and wouldn't let me do a search so i posted instead. Should be better than some rods though on the market right? Kinda in a pinch for money right now....bought several guns over the last few months at shows and my new AR!!! haha

I did mine yesterday and talk about getting the bucket bug quick! All I can think about is breaking the oil film on a bubba for the first time this year!

Any one have any experience with these? Says Gary Loomis gave his input or design on these. Seems like a great deal at Cabelas for 100 bucks and a lifetime warranty...

Well finally made a decision... Remington BDL 30-06 w/ Leupold glass and rings. Thanks for the help guys!

Thanks for all the replies! I have settled on either one of the following... Remington 700 SPS Weatherby Vangaurd Held and fired a weatherby today and was very pleased with it. Darn decisions!

I deer hunt only, but eventually will start black bear hunting in the next year. So the 30-06 is a must IMO for that. I just threw the Ruger 14 in because i shoot a friend's from work quit often and its a BLAST!

I currently own... Sig SP2022 9mm Remington Gamemaster 760 30-06 Winchester Xpress 12G. Semi-Auto I am looking to get another rifle but I am torn because I really want another pistol but the wife was hard enough to convince for this one. haha.... Anyway I would like to get one of the following rifles... Ruger Mini-14 Ranch Remington 700 SPS Remington 770 Stainless Remington Model Seven CDL Or finally... Remington 7600 Pump (Something about pumps I like) All would be a 30-06 round...perfect for me. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks again!

I use Hoppe's Elite gun oil and their gun grease. It works wonders for my 53yr old Remington Gamemaster 870 and my Sig Sauer SP2022 so it is like silk!

Most all boats of that size...my Pelican Bass Raider 10E included call for no more than 3.5 HP. I saw a guy on the Ohio river the other day in the same boat with a 3HP and he did fine. Scooted pretty well and did fine with all the coal barges that went by him. Matt

Two words.... LOVE THEM!!! I use both them and the Glass Shad Raps with tremendous success! The fat raps are better around timber w/ very little hookup issues. Use them when nothing else works and you are sure to get something before you leave the lake! Matt

I am not trying to hijack this thread...but.... I have always fished with the good ol' ugly stick 6' Med action spinning rod. I have used it for everything from spooks to cranks to spinners. Some know I started a thread a few months ago looking for a new rod between Loomis and St. Croix. I have settled on a Croix but my concern now after reading all this...will I not be able to do all I was doing before with good success? Or am I over thinking it? I was looking at the St. Croix Avid spinning 6'6" Med. Thanks!

Great looking rig! That is the exact way I have my transducer mounted if anyone is wondering about mounting theirs! Well worth it and you don't have to worry about pinching your wires in the motor brackets! Matt

Question.... I installed 2 seats from Cabela's that we got the other day and left the swivel bracket centered on the bracket. Very similar to the seat you have. The wife and I went out today and I felt myself being further over the side of the boat while fishing and along with this, the boat was leaning farther to the side we were fishing. Should I off-set the seats a couple inches and designate one side for fishing more so when having someone with me it will be less likely to have a tipover? Thanks! BTW...fishing today was dead! One crappie and no bucket heads!

x4 I have the Endura 55 w/ the wal-mart battery and never have an issue ever! Good luck! Matthew

Rapala Glass Shad Rap for shallow and mid-deep. It has been the most productive lure I have ever used and is always my producer when everything else fails! Matt
