Chronarch Ci4+ As A Jig Reel
I fished lighter jigs with a Core 50 , so I would have no issue with the Ci4.

Battery Charger Recommendation
I have a Minnkota 460PC had a 460D before, and a 440d before that. I think MInnKota probably makes just about the best charger out there.

Open Challenge To All Fishermen And Women
so a "one PB per trip" clause would behoove me, since Jeffro is under your training?

How Close Is Too Close?
If I cause a dent or you hear the splash of mine 3/4oz jig then you are too close. I nod or speak to everyone, but I also give everyone a wide berth, even bank or dock fishermen. that said, seadoos and wake boats get the 6xd....

Best <2500 Lb Rig
I have seen cameros tow 16 foot jon boats with a 25 on the back I have a friend that towed a tracker tx175 fully loaded down with gear for 2 people he towed it with a GMC Canyon, which is a small s-10 type truck. those two example should give you some points of reference.

Talk About A Lack Of Respect...
I go one step further: the higher you are on the leader board the more likely to be poached...... Boom boom probably wasnt going to get poached, but he caught that 9# then here come the spot burners like sharks smelling blood.

Pb Beard Strikes Again....
well we had a good weekend forecast this weekend and I had a new trolling motor, so fishing I went........ got up at 3 30am and headed to Pickwick. going it alone........about half way there I realized I left my scale on desk in the shop. I had that sinking feeling, I just new I was going to catch something big without my scale. trying to calm myself I thought I had an extra one stashed in the boat.......again, no joy. pressing on, I launch...... new software on the humminbirds didn't work, so I reinstalled some older software. pressing on, seeing no baitfish, after the massive shad kill I move to a spot near I caught good fish too. Classic spot to fish with warming water, long rocky point with scattered grass, with a secondary point leading into a spawning cove. 3 foot on top dropping back into to 15, then 25 foot. Throwing big hammer up on top and slow rolling it then letting it fall off the ledge. Pausing it one time I reeled up some slack..... I thought it might have hung up in grass, I ripped it out...... quickly realizing it wasn't grass since it never budged..........IT WAS A HORSE!!!! the fight escaladed quickly, with my Dobyns 735 and Lews TP spooled up with 20# tatsu being the victor! After a few runs I led the beast around the trolling motor to the other side so I could lip at the side of the boat......... not only did I forget my scale, but I never replaced my net when it blew out of the boat last fall! lifting it into the boat I felt sure it was a new PB, the fish was heavy, thick and heavy..... admiring the catch I put it into the livewell until I could find some in with a scale. About an hour later, I found someone idling by with a scale and weight and photo the fish. woke up this morning and shaved the beard.......... an accomplishment in its own right! the beard might have weighed more than this 6 pound 10 ounce donkey!

This Scale
I assume you own this scale and are positive it only does ounces? I ask because my scale does hundredths..... but like a dummy I didn't have my scale and had to borrow one on the lake.

Jig Setup Question
the core 50 will be fine, especially if you are pitching and flipping a lot..... I had a core 50 on a casting jig set up and I still had plenty of line. 15# of quality flouro will be fine.
-
This Scale
http://www.rapala.com/Digital-Scales/Digital%20Scales,default,pd.html?start=11&cgid=rapala-toolsAndMore-scales ok, this scale......... does it only do ounces or does it do hundreths? if a fish weights 6 10 on this scale is it 6 pounds and 10 ounces...... or just over 6. a PB hang in the balance.

Done With Bass Pro Shop
I rarely shop at BPS unless I need somethign right then and there. I will say the Memphis Store, the fishing section is ran by fishermen. They know where everything is and if you have a question on rigging, baits, ect ect they are happy to help and share their experiences.

Random Thoughts And Questions
I contend they did see the possibility of it getting this bad, and that's the way they finitely worded it the way they did.

Random Thoughts And Questions
actually Madison(if memory serves) argued AGAINST the bill of rights. He feared exactly what is happening today........ everyone thinking they are so durn special that they are protected by the bill of rights to do or say anything, thus the entire concept would be perverted. simply, our founders were the smartest men EVER. even with the arguments they had over how to write or word our founding documents, they all made sense... unlike here in gun forum sometimes, LOL.
