  1. Thanks guys... In a 16 footer, I wanted to go without the steering console. I wanted max floor space.
  2. Xcalibur XR rattle baits - Good, tough finishes, good hooks out of the box. And I like the Xcaliber rattle baits because they seem to have more resistance on the retrieve than most other lipless baits. It helps to keep them higher in the water column and still allows you to get away with a heavier model for absolute BOMBING casts. 'Stick to the 5/8 oz. or 1/2 oz. sizes unless you are wanting them to get deep, fast'. I also think the IMA Rock N' Vibes look the best, but have not used them yet... I hope they catch as good as they look... The colors I selected: Another bait that is causing a big stir on an Ohio dedicated fishing forum is SmartTackle's Flitterbait-2's. (Voted flat out best bait of 2013 for one of the guys) In his opinion, nothing else he owns even came close to the productivity he got out of this lure. I picked up a complete set. You should replace the 'clip-on' size 6 hooks. I opted for some red extra wide gap Owner Stinger's size 6 hooks... And size 2 split-rings...
  3. I have not had a walk the dog topwater type bait yet. Some good advice, I will have to look into that.
  4. Wow man... You are a mobile bait store!
  5. Thanks!! My favorite feature is the under floor live well. Super rare in 16 foot boats.
  6. In love with my 2014 Lund Fury... Under floor 34” 10 gallon livewell, storage compartments, casting deck, dual wired for electric trolling in both front and rear, bilge pump, lights, electric start, power trim, and horn... Has the new Lund seats for 2014... (2) 7' 6" Rod lockers, that hold 6 rods each... It has a gray vinyl carpet for its main floor. ( Easy to clean ) 40 HP with the new standard prop they use as of 2013. 55lb Minn Kota Dual on board battery charger Had a Humminbird 798ci HD SI Combo installed... Me! The deck has a real solid feel when walking around up there... ( I am 6' 2" and 185lbs ) My wife likes it too... Not too bad of features for a 16 footer! Some stats: Boat Length = 16' 2" Min/Max Horsepower = 25/40 HP Boat/Motor/Trailer Towing Weight (lbs) = 1081 lbs Beam Width = 73.5" Chine Width = 56" Amidship Depth = 30.5" Bow Depth = 35.5" Transom Height = 20" Standard Boat Weight (lbs) = 520-565 lbs (Mine has no steering console, so probably closer to the 520lbs. ) Maximum Persons = 5 Capacity (lbs) = 1200 lbs Lund's Integrated Power Strake (IPS) Hull Marine-grade treated plywood (bow to stern) My boat will go 30mph with 2 guys onboard along with their gear.
  7. Thanks for the offer... I will keep you in mind KDW96, if the clutter gets too much out of control.

  9. Thanks for the input... I will look into picking up some new bullet weights... and some glass beads too. I don't keep my spinner-baits in that tackle box, but I have them too...
  10. Hellow all, just joined, and this is my first post. I live in Ohio, just bought me a new 2014 16' 2" Lund Fury this year, and getting back into fishing. I have been working hard at building up my Tackle Box. How do you think I am doing? This is how she currently looks: Tray 1 Tray 2 Tray 3 Tray 4 My next order will be to fill this tray up: Megabass Ito Shiner - Length 4.5", Weight 1/2oz, Hook #4, Depth 8-9ft. (Suspending) (1) Color: GG. Perch Megabass Ito Vision 110 Squarebill - Length 4.35", Weight 1/2oz, Depth 6-7ft. (Floating) (1) Color: GG. Gill Rapala BX Balsa Extreme Jointed Minnow 3-1/2", 5/16oz, 6-8ft, Hook size 6. (1) Color: Smelt (1) Color: Gold Shiner I figure I will move my Smithwick Limited Rogue in the Nuclear Clown color, into the same slot as my new GG. Perch Megabass Ito Shiner, as both are suspending class baits. That will give me (2) 'Big Boy' Suspending Jerkbaits... And (4) 'Big Boy' floating... Cotton Cordell Red Fin - CHR/BLACK BACK Bomber Long A B15 - Silver/White/Red Bagley BangOLure Jerk Bait - Baby Bass Megabass Ito Vision 110 Squarebill Jerkbait - GG. Gill Probably a healthy ratio of Floaters to Suspenders... This will also scratch my itch for some more natural looking jerks. I will just line up the 4 floaters on the left side of my tray, so its easy to remember. My 2 suspenders will go top right. I wish TW had those old school jointed Rapala minnows. I would buy one. Tray 5 Tray 6 Also have these in the bag too... I now even have a new Terminal Tackle Utility Box going...
