cost of running a bass boat
kb here again you guys nailed the deal with the cost of having a big bass boat. i thought a few years ago that i was a pretty good tourney fisherman. so i invested in a ranger boat boy i was going first class. had a great partner to fish with. going to split all the cost even. wife kept track of all the cost. gas,oil,enter t expence, motel room , eats,ins,etc we would win a few tourneys, some where in the bigger money to me $1000.00.. and at the end of year wife would talley up the cost of tourney fishing and the money we won.. and we still lost money every year. yes you can catch a lot of fish in a flat bottom, with a small engine. and have just as much fun doing it. the last ranger i bought in 2002 was $28,000.00 with a 200 hpdi yamaha and gas was $1.50 now $3.00 but the boat is paid for. but if i had to do it all over would probably get a boat for about 1/2 that price. as you guys know that ia'm a old man and cant keep up the pace of tourney fishing any more. but i go to the boat ramps and see some young guy have a $40,00.00 truck and a $50,00.00 boat. dont know how they do it. but more power to them kb man if you can afford it go for it we are just going to do this once in a lifetime kb

cost of running a bass boat
avid kb here its like the old saying when it comes to our play toys, if you have to ask how much, then anyone might want to think hard about buying a boat.the things you ask about the price of gas . to me has little meaning, with upkeep, insurance,batterys. depth finders and so on and on. it has to be just a hobby the biggest part of this hobby is not going to make you money yes there are a few.that get good enough but must have sponcers to make it. when you go out fishing for a day and have a great day and catch a lot of fish you release back. just might cost you a $100.00 a day everything included just another vice. but everone has to have something golf,travel, camping etc. will cost a lot of money,avid its just money kb

white cedar where to buy kb
big m you are correct about kiln dry as far as cedar is concerned its the only wood that does not have to be kiln dryed but you have to stick it and air dry for 3-4 years if i get any wood that is not kiln dryed ill take a small amount and you can kiln dry in your microwave in obout total time 5 min. kb

Poe's crankbaits
kb here i did what one of the guys suggested to do about what kind of cedar they use in poes crankbaits they answered me today WHITE CEDAR is the wood used. i have never caught a bass on a bait that does not have a bill i have not used one a lot in my serious bass fishing in the past 30 years . but i did order 3 xcalibur xr75's one crawdad,royal shad,firetiger colors going to give those lipless bait another try. and also going to copy design of it to make a few of my own. i know some of you guys dont like a person who steal's a design from someone else and ia'm guilty on this one going to make them out of cedar kb
