Best Soft Plastic Craw?
On a TW binge I bought some Molix SV craw Magnums I just haven't gotten around to actually using them only because my Rage Tails are in the same bin. If I'm reaching for a craw I can't stop myself from grabbing the Rage Tails if I'm not using it as a jig trailer.

Like A Lost Puppy
Whole new ball game isn't it? We got our boat in Nov and I'm still "lost in the sauce".

A Reminder
I don't care how big or small the bass is I don't hold it horizontally without supporting its body. Why run the risk of killing it? My biggest thing is watching shows professional or tv personality swinging them around or like a previous poster mentioned talking for 5 minutes on the gear just used to boat the fish. Ike holding em horizontally with zero support to where the viewer can see down the throat of a bass is just stupid. I know what a bass's throat looks like no need to make sure they get it on camera. The frustrating thing is knowing younger generation fishers are watching and just like sports "do what the pros do".

I pray for your nerves in dealing with Houston traffic!!! The Katy BPS is better than Pearland but it's still nice.

Considering Buying A New Nitro
Nice, we have SI/DI, how to use it? I still have no earthly idea.

Considering Buying A New Nitro
I don't blame you. We kept the black and white flush mounted and it's surprisingly accurate and on par with the hds7 as far as depth and temp.

Considering Buying A New Nitro
Crankbank, I believe you're right with the 21 gal. I've had 4 people in the boat, 3 of em were... Oversized myself included, it took a tad bit longer but we were able to get on plane but I really had to horse it at the beginning. When you mentioned that above it made me remember that was the only reason I was "if-y" on the z6, 2 people fish very comfortably but with 3 it gets a little cramped. I can't imagine having the small Lowrance on the bow lol, I'm 6'4 that's a long way down. I had a HDS 7 Gen2 on a ram mount at the console, need something for the bow though.

This is why I don't set goals if I know I'm shopping for fishing related items. I will always just disappoint myself for not sticking to my guns.....

Considering Buying A New Nitro
My fiancée and I got a 2015 Nitro Z6 in November with the 115 4 stroke. The guys I bought it from took it out the day before I picked it up and said he got it to 55MPH. I've gone 40 fully loaded down and sure I would love to go faster but it doesn't make a difference to me. It planes quickly, has adequate storage. The only problem I have found is if I want to store my rods on deck where they put the strap (port side) it interfers if I lay the trolling motor down, they gave me an extra so I can mount it on the starboard side no big deal. I am a first time boat owner so to me this little boat is outstanding that fit in our price range without runnin the risk of going used and getting a lemon. If we could I would of opted for the Z7 but for now the 6 is amazing. I've only taken it out maybe 5 times and the winch on the trailer broke so that will get fixed tomorrow but other than that we have loved it.
