Minn Kota rope cord
I replaced mine 2 weeks ago. I wanted the G Force setup but it would not work on my boat. I ordered some 3/16 inch double braid poly rope and found a handle that fits snowmobiles on ebay, big handle like the G Force. Both were about $14 total and I got both in blue to match my Cool Foot and Troll Perfect, really pimped out my trolling motor.

Aluminum Bass Boat
Do what I did. I applied for a personal loan. My bank would only finance 80% of the value of the boat. I need to finance all of it so I asked about a personal loan. They said they are harder to get but she filled out the paper work and submitted it. She called back to say that it was approved. It helps to have a good credit score.

Downsides to Ned Rig What are yours
The down side for me is that it catches so many fish, I don't want to use anything else.

A little annoyed at Lund
Maybe everything was there except the horn itself. OP said it would cost $51 extra to get a horn, does seem kinda expensive for just a horn.

A little annoyed at Lund
Glad everything worked out. If this meant something to you then it was worth checking into. Hope you enjoy your boat.

Fishing shirts
Huk shirts, UA shorts, Simms or Columbia gloves, and Sunday Afternoon wide brim hat. I have had skin cancer cut off so I take it serious.

Plastics for Ned Rig?
Only trouble I have had with Zman is sticking together some and this is not a big problem. I live where it is hot and humid, they are kept in my boat under the garage. I honestly believe that the ZMan line can not be beat.

Charging battery without unplugging trolling motor
Maybe 24 volt system is different, but I have never unplugged my TM when I charge on my 12 volt system. I do turn the speed to off and the rocker switch to off. Maybe I am going to learn something.

Website for ethanol free gas locations
I was talking to a friend that works in a hardware that repairs small engines. He said that he gets a lot of engines to work on and most of them use the Mom and Pop gas station down the road. I noticed that when I used them, my boat didn't run as good. I went back to ethanol gas and it does great. I do use the additives.

Favorite Spinnerbaits?
Use a brand that I don't think they make anymore Hart. These are some great running spinner baits. I also use Mr Hootie which is a local made bait.

What weight sinker do you most commonly use to Texas Rig?
I guess I use 3/16 the most.

Loctite on knots
I use to use Loctite Gel Glue when I joined braid to fc but I don't think it is really necessary. I don't use it anymore because I don't think it helps a bad tied knot.

Booyah Spinnerbaits
Tried Booyah spinnerbaits and wasn't too crazy about them. I still have a life time supply of old Hart spinnerbaits, to me, one of the best made. Still wish they made them.
