Why synthetic oil over the standard oil?

Sold the bass boat, then fished the last three years out of a Jon. Could not take it any more so I pulled the trigger on a 2002 Lowe 180W.

It is a Rapala. The color is Shad I think and I don't think they make that crank bait anymore.

Crank baits are my go to bait. Every one of them can be fished many different ways. Speed him up, slow him down, Stop and go. Jerk or twitch. The same one in a different size or caller. Try different line size and different rods. Bring him across the top of grass or rip him right down thought the grass. Let your mind run wild with a crank bait and don't be afraid of losing him. Put him where you are sure you are going to loss him or brake him. A new crank bait at the end of the day should look like he as been fished with all year.

In the past you have said all the lake's that you are going to fish are small. Tiller steer would be fine and so would smaller motors then you have been looking at.

I asked the same thing on here even asked a boat dealer. I don't think there is an answer to that question.

If they are the kind that sets on top of the trailer and a U-bolt holds them in place cant you drill hole's for the U-bolt in the step.

You can not find one like it in Mo. for $4000.00. Not if it's in good shape

From what I have read it will be low if the throttle is not open

Think I need more time on the water or just lucky. Lost 1 Buzzbait in the last 3 years and broke the bill off a KVD 1.5 Square Bill on a rock.

1999 Stratos 17.5 foot bass boat. Have not seen it yet. Says everything works. New Axle and tires. 2 new battery's. Ferly new trolling motor. 1 fish finder. Said he had it on the water last weekend and ran grate. I think it would be a good buy. What do you think of Stratos boats? $2,900.00

Can anyone tell me about the 2001 Johnson 90hp model # J90PLSIG motor? Are they good or bad motors?

Bass Pro sold a lot of boats with the Mercury- Force motors and they where a lot better then the old Force motors.

I back in the ninety's from 1992 to about 2001 I worked evenings for a boat dealer. There was a lot of Force motors on the lake then. Most of them was what keep the shop working over time. When they where running a 35hp Mercury would run off and leave a 50hp Force even if the Mercury was on a little heaver boat. The lake cop had a Force on their boat and most of the time you never seen him because the Force was being worked on.

How many hours is a 2 stroke good?

Found a 18' 2003 Lowe 180W Stinger with a 2002 Evinrude E90FPLSN FICHT on it and local dealer say's that's the motor that broke Evinrude also has 1000 hours on it. But think he was set on sealing me a boat on his lot. Anyone know anything about that motor?

Is a 1000 hours on a 2 stroke motor a lot of hours? How far will one go? This one is a 2002 90hp Evinrude on a bass boat that was ran on Table Rock for the most part. I could see one on a big lake having more hours on it. Don't want to by one that is all most done.

Found out it has the original TM ,1 original locator and 1 newer one. Say's it's just short of a 1000 hours on the motor.

A lot that I need to know about the boat yet. I am going to be down there the first of next month on a fishing trip. Then I can see the boat. I know the man that has it. He had it up here last year. I seen it run across the lake, but that was all I seen of it then.

The dealer in Kirksville is telling me the boat is a 1,500$ boat. I am having a hard time thinking it is. He has 2 that I am going to look at. 90 is all you can run on Thousand Hills.

It has 2 fish finders and trolling motor. Don't know if the decks are wood or not, that I need to find out. Need to see the boat but it's 6 hours south of me.

Looking at a 2003 Lowe W180 with a Evinrude 90hp. New sets. needs carpet. He is asking 5000. Is that to much for that boat?

I have 1 Bass Pro rod and hat it. Have 9 of the Cabela's Tourney rods and love them and gave more for the Bass Pro rod.

I ordered from them Saturday night, it shipped Tuesday morning. Tracking Says it's on it's way on time.

Sending a bait into the water with out a target and hoping to catch fish is like shooting a gun or bow with out a deer in your sight and hoping to kill one.
