I have a 2009 Triton 19 express with a 200 Merc Optimax... I love the boat. I have always liked Triton boats. If the hours are correct, I would get it inspected by a real marine mechanic. That sounds like a good deal if the boat is nice and doesnt need anything. Was it garage kept?

I had to find a picture online of my Para... I didnt have one of my gun. This is the same model... LOVE it!! No jams... very reliable, I have probly put 1500-2000 rounds through it.

I usually have 8 rods on my deck, all B/C... I do have 2 spinners in the rod box at all times, but I bet I havent used one in 2-3 years...

I hope some of TS Lee's rain has made it to the Bend... were in south La and we have been getting rained on since Thursday... I know the Bend could use a few FEET!! Stay safe out there, watch out for all those stumps!

But I absolutely believe “When in doubt set the hook” I agree 110%!!! You cant take a chance!

those baits should come with scuba gear... You know I'd go swimmin after one of those!! AWESOME work!! I am amazed at some of those. Beautiful!

Very NICE FISH!!! WoW!!! Congrats! That is a day to remember forever.

that is a strange looking little fellow... I would imagine he was caught at a young age and hooked really bad or had something take a bite out of him... I think he is looking at me!

Here is my 2009 Triton 19 Explorer.. 200 Merc Optimax...

Is it? I don't have one, and I guess I've never really paid much attention to them. I've seen them advertised as eliminating chine walking. How do they do that if they're out of the water? Majic!! lol I dont know, I dont see it helping chine walk if its out of the water.. :-?

we are fishing there the 17th-20th... were staying at the North State Park... I think we will do some scouting Thursday and then try a more specific attack Fri, Sat and Sunday... unless someone has a suggestion! (hint hint, wink wink)

I will be at the Bend 17-20th!! I heard the same thing about the water levels. Were staying on the north side National Park... I guess we will have to drive around to launch... :/

those are some beautiful picures guys...

Skeet22, I do most of my punching with a Zoom speed craw... It has a little action with those claws but nothing too crazy. It works for me around here.. GL, where are you fishing your tournament?

cool, thanks guys. The motor is a 2009. I will call my Merc dealer and see what he thinks. Thanks for the suggestions.
