Bank-Owned Boat Auctions?
Many of the actions that they go through are dealer only.

Jon Boat
Nitro summed it up pretty well. Just remember the bigger the boat generally the more stable it will be and if you putting a chair on the deck I would mount it kind of low so it's more stable. Also the deck is usually more stable if out in the back of the boat verses the front especially on a V hull.

Bass Pro Excel Mono
Has anyone used the bass pro shops excel mono filament line? I used berkley trilene forever but now that's its $8 for 300yds because of the "improved formula" I won't used it anymore. Anyways I use 6lb - 16lb test line and I fish some tournamnets so I need the line to be dependable and I've heard some mixed reviews about memory and breaking issues. Any information about excel line would be appreciated.

Budget Rod Coin Flip
Yeah don't worry much about the ultra light combos just buy a couple cheap ones. You didn't state your budget but the diawa arid rods are very nice $60 I think and also the abu Garcia vendetta is sweet at $80.

Trip To Bass Pro Shop
I always just assumed its one of there smaller ones. It's not huge it my opinion but I haven't been to other bass pro so it may be huge compared to those.

Abu Garcia Gen 3 Revo S
I am wanting to get a new gen 3 revo s for my veritas rod. How does this reel compare to the sx and the stx? I mostly want the s because it looks cool on my veritas but I currently have a gen 2 sx and stx I'm happy with them(other than the weight of these gen2 reels). Thanks

Spinner Bait Rod.
I fish more around docks and cover so I like a 6'10" MH. If you're making long cast on long points you may want a 7'3". The MH action works good for 3/8 to 1/2 ounce baits.

Trip To Bass Pro Shop
I live very close to that one and have been there many times. It's pretty decent, definitly worth the trip at least one time. Honestly it's not a huge store but they have way more stuff that gander mountain if you've ever been there. Never eat at the little restaurant there but I would imagine it not great.

Strapping Down Trolling Motor
I know I just hate using it in tournaments. I think I'll keep strapping it for now. I was just talking to one of my friends with a Minnkota on his nitro and he said he's never strapped it.

Strapping Down Trolling Motor
I have a Minnkota fortex trolling motor and I always use the strap on it. The guy at my boat dealership said the strap is only there if you if super rough water like on the Great Lakes. I just don't feel this is right so the question is when to strap? Also every ranger boat I've seen with a Minnkota has a little bar going from the top of the motor and the bottom of the bar sits on the carpet.(called a bow mount stabilizer) Mine does not have this and I think I should maybe get one because mine feels a little shaky.thanks

Rod Glove
I have the rod glove for casting rod and love them but, I need some for my spinning rods now. I've heard many rod covers aren't big enough to fit over the last guide so I'm wondering how these are? I have mostly dobyns and abu veritas rods if that matters.

Reel Cleaning In Nc
Thanks that what I needed. If anyone has another person I would like to know about it because unfortunatly these guys don't do spinning reels.

Reel Cleaning In Nc
I live in Denver, North Carolina(not far from Charlotte). I was wondering if anyone knew anyone around here that professionally cleaned reels? I may just send them to DVT but, I don't like paying for shipping and I need a fast turnaround because I only have a few reels and fish 12 months a year. Thanks

Where To Buy
I usually order tackle warehouse but bass tackle depot doesn't have much of a selection but, they run sales quite often. They had a 25% off everything sale a couple weeks ago.

Might Be A Stupid Question But...
I put it in the thin layer of skin next to the jaw like your buddy. Same with cull rings too. When I was a kid I would weigh them in the net and then subtract the weight of the net.
-
Cork Handles
I wouldn't try it on a very nice rod. I think it would probably dry the Eva out and try to take off the color. This is just my guess though.

Which Would Get Better Mileage?
Usually the 200 will get better mpg and it will definitly last longer because it won't be ran as hard.
