Lost all my Tackle where do I start?
I'd I had to start over and needed to keep it cheap id say fish the 3 water columns. Top, middle and bottom Spook in bone is my favorite top water Square Bill in shad pattern 1.5 size And senko in green pumpkin for Texas rigs, c dog, drop shot etc. So versatile If you didmt want to use crankbait I'd get chatterbait. I do lots it my fishing with just a spook, chatterbait and senko. They are a great combo to cover lots of needs.

Texas Rig Peg Or Not?
Almost never peg unless it is a flipping lure. I will out a bead on most of the time though. I feel like it protects my knots better and it is something different than most guys are throwing. If I do peg it is with a rubber bobber stopper

Thinking about buying a whopper plopper
Very nice bait. The 130 is heavy like 1 and 5/8 oz. I'd fish it on a 7 to 7 6 heavy/ fast rod with 7.1;1 gear ratio. You can get away with 90 on a med heavy.

I've put about double double what I paid for my boat into accessories this spring, but I think it should make it more "fishable" really ready for spring I plAn on just using my tackle warehouse backpack this year. I don't carry lots of year in this boat either, due to limited spAce

20lb. Mono?
All kinds of good stuff really. Any bottom baits would be where is start. Jugs, t rigs, c rigs, and flipping baits. Also a nice deep cranking line for heavier lures. 20 lb is very versitle line

Bass Raider and rudder
I am curious about this too. I've got 10 e raider and 55 lb thrust mk tm. I m wondering of the bull nose mounted on a front mount tm would be enough to keep the pbr from spinning on windy days. I've built a custom rudder for the back, but of I can get away with only a bull nose it would be sweet

Can you fish a crankbait with a spinning reel?
Yes of course you can. I think spinning gear is the most versatile there is. Having said that I've got a bc in my hand 90 percent of time. Spinning gear is easier to use and casts farther. I just like casting

Have any of you guys put rod holders on the back? I am thinking of drilling straight into the haul but not sure. I want to catfish with this boat at times

Ghost Extra Heavy For Flipping And Pitching
I am looking to add to my personal collection and a ghost man. I am wondering who was used the extra heavy and how it held up. Got a season on my med heavy and medium casting rods and been very happy. The medium spinning rod is legit too. I am wanting to learn to flip and pitch this year and hoping this will be a good rod. Looking for feedback specific to extra heavy
