Lures you would use a snap with?
Never used snaps and never will. I prefer to just cut off and tie, that's just me.

battery wiring?
I have always turned my TM to off and speed control to 0, never had a problem. However on my outboard, I have a switch that I turn off when charging.

Med Lt spinning rod
I thought I needed a ML but it did not work out for me. I ended up with 3 medium power rods. i can throw 1/16oz Ned heads farther than I really need to with 10# braid and 7# leader. Like most said, it is up to you really.

Senko type lures why popular when it’s inefficient
I fish a reservoir that has a lot of rip rap. The weightless Senko is one of the few lures that I can can use without getting hung up. BTW, I don't necessary fish them slow. The fish in my avatar was caught on a weightless Senko.

Thoughts on wearing a jersey even if you're not in a competition?
I say, if you like wearing it, wear it. If it protects from the sun or it is just comfortable, wear it. Personally I would not but I don't even like the pros looking like a bill board or NASCAR diver but I do get it. In the end it don't really matter.

Glue?

Bow fish finder pedestal?
What you are looking for is a RAM mount. I think they make different heights. This is the one on my boat.

trolling motor?
If you are going to just use one 12 volt battery, you will probably be limited to 55# thrust. I would suggest the Minn Kota Edge. It is your basic trolling motor but a good one. I have used one for 4 years with no trouble at all.

Looking for a <6’6” casting rod
Got this rod, it is a killer for dock fishing. My buddy told me that rod is too short, I told him that it is 3 inches longer than I use to throw back in the 70's/80's, thought I did OK with that length then.
