TM and electronics on a canoe

Bandit Crankbait ID
I believe Bandit use to sell a square bill and discontinued it. I do know that I Cast this year, they came out with another square bill. Probably the same one they had before and just re-introduced it.

Soft plastic storage
This is what I use. I believe these were made in the 80's. They have been great bags, wish they still made them.

Frog frustration!
Heavy action 7' rod with high speed reel, 50# braid and a frog with the hooks bent up slightly. Wait until you feel fish, they often miss it the first strike.

Three baits...need help with colors (Bagley and Poe's)
I think the first one is simply called Green on Chartreuse, the second I think is Smokey Joe, don't know about the last one. I may be wrong on the first two. Don't know the value of them.

Fish Finder / Boat Storage
Same here. I have always taken my units off even when they didn't have a quick disconnect. With my Garmin units, I can take both off in less than 30 seconds.

First-time leader user--lengths for techniques?
Same here. When you cast, you want your finger on the braid, not leader. The reason I went with braid/leader is because of line twist. I hardly get line twist with the braid. Also, braid cast much better.
