Why Is A Bass Boat A Bass Boat?
bass boats are good for stand-up lure casting. since 99% are carpeted they are not good for any messy, bloody fishing. and most dont have a way of putting out a trolling spread. their live wells are not made for bait. this why many striper and cat guys use saltwater boats or aluminum.

Ever Seen A Bass With Red Eyes

How Do You Eat Your Bass?
blackened: dry your fillets. rub a small amount of olive oil on them sprinkle a mix of {onion and garlic powder, lemon pepper,}equal proportions [black pepper,and red pepper.] i would suggest 1/3 proportion in relation to the other 3. mixed this way it has some kick but not bad. place in hot black skillet and leave on each side for good bit you want it to burn. bass on the half shell: cut the fillets off the fish but leave the skin and scales on. place on a couple of layers of foil or in one of those fish cooking baskets skin down. sprinkle your seasoning of choice on them. i suppose you could bake them but i like a fire. the trick is getting the fire hot enough to cook but burn them. i use a indirect fire with my coal on one side and my fish on the other and cover them. when done the meat is flaky. you can scape the meat off the skin or vise versa

Roboworm's... My New Favorite.
the salt is only in the bottom layer and in the front half so the tail is just plastic.

Essential Must Have Plastics
baby brush hogs, trick worms, finesse worms, u-tail worms, flukes, 4'' ring worms,pit boss, paca craw, roboworms, 4'' & 6'' lizards, senco, and simbaits. you will need a variety of tackle. besides classic trig. i would get slider heads, shakey heads, weighted swibait wooks, some bell weights for dropshot, and swivels and beads for crig.

2000 50Hp Yamaha 2-Stroke Problems
i have eliminated the fuel system. i had a friend who is a mechanic come over and look at it. we went through the electrical system. once it got warm it started its run and cut off routine we unplugged a thermal censor and it would run much better not perfect but better. part #12 on this diagram. http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Outboard/2000/C40TLRY/ELECTRICAL%201/parts.html using the ohm feature on a voltmeter you can tell when it gets hot it completes a circuit. does anyone know what temp this circuit is supposed to operate at?

Trade Off Of Fluoro And Braid
braid works great with topwater. have seen and read of many pros using it for that purpose. and 1 downside is certain knots slip with braid.

Open Letter To Boat Fisherman
so if you ever get a boat you will never fish in this area you know so well? who is to say that the boaters weren't banks fishers at one point and like the spot. i personally avoid bank fishing spots because of the excessive broken lines in the water and litter. but if i've payed to enter a tournament and your bank fishing spot fits my pattern tough luck.

2000 50Hp Yamaha 2-Stroke Problems
tried a few thing i have read and was recommended. it took much longer for the symptoms to show up today. it did eventually start stalling at idle, but i could keep it running with throttle which seems to me to eliminate electrical. i cleaned the carbs one more time and believe i found trash in 1 of the carbs. so i have my fingers crossed and will try again tomorrow. how there was still something in there with all the flushing replacing and cleaning is mind boggling. when i say cleaned the carbs i take them all the way down removing everything and spraying out all jets and passage. these carbs look new they are completely spotless.

2000 50Hp Yamaha 2-Stroke Problems
im am out of ideas and need help. from the top. about two weeks ago i was out fishing. about dark we cranked up to head to the landing. about a minute into the trip the outboard started skipping a little and got worse quick. within 100yds i dropped of plane and it stalled it cranked but would immediately die. so i put my backup plugs in and it fired right up and ran good. back on plane no problem but within 400yds it died again. it would fire up and die within 3 seconds but i could keep it going with a little throttle in neutral. so i thought i might have trash in my carbs. i was able to drain 2 of the 3 carb bowls and it fired and we were able to putt back to landing a little faster than idle speed. i have never put anything but no ethanol gas in my boat. before this trip i did purchase No E gas from a different station. that paired with it seeming to work after draing the bowls made believe i had a fuel issue. i purchased and installed a 10 micron fuel/water separator and siphoned my tank out and put fresh no E fuel from my usual store and treated it with marine stabil. i cleaned the carbs and installed all new line from the tank(10 gal plastic) to the outboard. i took it to the lake and it seemed to run good but minutes into my test run it started skipping and got worse. i circled back to the landing and came to a stop. it died but fired up and started to get on plane again but was running rough put died before getting there. it would crank with no hesitation and die within 3 seconds. back home i figured a little trash had somehow got in the carbs again so i cleaned them again. went back to the lake and had a repeat of the previous trip. i did make 1 mistake. i took apart the fuel pump on the block to clean any trash out of it and i believed i damaged it as it later leaked in a test. i got a new one and installed it. another test run seem to be its self ran good for a mile or to then the old skip started again and this trip ended like the last one. cranking and dying within 3 seconds. last things i have done is borrow a hanging gas bottle from a mechanic friend and hooked it up inline right before the new fuel pump eliminating the whole fuel system.with the foot in a barrel. let in idle as the engine warmed it started running rough.this test ended with it again cranking easy but dying within seconds. even with increased throttle in neutral. the spark seems strong but quits when the engine starts dying. i had a friend mention the power pack and they can break down and act strange with heat. is there anyway to test or trouble shoot that. and lastly i have not messed with this electronic thing on the side of the middle carb. can someone explain what it is and can it cause trouble. in my reading and research i have not figured out what it is or even seen it mentionedweb pic mine are in better condition

Brandon Palaniuk Dq
i read somewhere else that culling was banned in Wisconsin back in the day. to honor this Minnesota banned culling in boundary waters. Wisconsin later ratified its old law and it has just fallen through the cracks in Minnesota. culling is legal in Minnesota except for where Brandon did it.

Yin Yang?
the article might be exaggerating some. i went and watched the take-out for the alabama river charge. swindle came up to the dock and changed line on 4 rods and piddled in the boat for a while before trailering his boat
