Tilt/trim Button Covers?
Never mind, I answered my own question. They are called "circuit breaker boots". Just gotta have the right terminology.

Tilt/trim Button Covers?
My Nitro has 2 push buttons on it's bow to tilt the motor up and down. The switches work fine, I just tore the black, rounded, rubber covers that screw on and hold the switch into the plate. Where can I get these? I searched ebay but didn't see them.

I Was Going To Take A Nap...
I could watch those all day long. My favorite, like most, is the F14 Tomcat. My brother-in-law flew one for 20 yrs in the military. He's a commercial pilot now.

What Is More Important?
Reserve capacity is what you are looking for. The higher the better. I have never owned an Optima but have heard good things about them. Also heard good things about the Everstarts from Wally World.

Princess Pole Success.
It gets real when it goes full circle and you start taking your Dad out fishing. I have great memories of my Dad waking me up early, eating Cheerios quietly so we didn't wake Mom, sneaking out of the house before daylight and hitting the water for a day of fishing. Then, all of the sudden it seemed, I owned a boat, truck, house etc... and my Dad was older. I remember the first time I picked him up before light and drove him to the launch.

If You Could Only Have One Size For A Jerkbait
See, I like the 112 myself. OP, this is why you just gotta get a couple of each and see what the fish want that day. A given size will perform better than the other under certain conditions. The Rapala HJ12 is my 'ol standby for a reason...

Charging A Battery
I think you may mean "when I flip it to the 6V setting", not 6A? No? That charger looks like it has the capability to charge in 6V mode or 12V. You definitely want to be using the 12V side. And what Wayne said about the battery being charged when the needle is down is accurate.

Favorite Television Intro
Dang, so many good ones. Fresh Price, Hillbillies, both good. For recent ones I'd say Family Guy and King of the Hill.

Jig Or Nekid Craw?
Great question. I, too, fish a jig a lot and wonder if I should be throwing a t-rigged craw or jighead craw. No hijack btw... Will wait for answers.

Quite possibly one of the most simple, informative answers I've seen. Well said Brian. Absolutely can't go wrong with these jigs and colors.

Pain Between Shoulder Blades
Sometimes a brace can mask a weak core or weak supporting muscles. Not saying this is your case, as we have never even met but you may also want to look into a light weight training program to fix the root of the problem. Check for a personal trainer at a local gym. He/she could give you some exercises to do at home even.
