  1. I keep my Pond Prowler in my 3rd garage. No gas motor so that is not a problem but I worry about keeping 2 12V lithiums in there with bedrooms above. I have them out of the boat and kept in a "fire resistant" cover. Anything else I should be doing?
  2. I came around a corner of a canyon and surprised a flock(?) of turkey vultures. I've never seen them in Washington before. A call on Monday to the local Audubon Society confirmed that they do reside in parts this state.
  3. Two guys you never heard of were pioneers of bass fishing in Washington state......Ed T. Frederick and Stan Fagerstrom. Also, Larry Nixon has some ties to this state.
  4. Back in the 60's it was called doodle-socking. I remember my dad buying a 12' bamboo pole and tying on a lizard he made to dangle in the reeds. He was a man before his time.
  5. I've only caught about 10 bass over 6 lbs, but every one was on a crankbait.......including my PB. I hate 'em....no other lure that I throw causes me more frustration and blood loss than do my crankbaits. But I HAVE to throw them.
  6. I had bi-lateral total knee replacement 12 years ago. Still goin' strong........best thing I ever did. I bought an Aflac policy the year before. It paid my wages for three months while I was off. It is imperative that you do everything your physical terrorist tell you to. Full range of motion is the goal......no matter how much it hurts. Good luck!
  7. Flow-Rite Drain Plug Boarding ladder Ratchet handle for winch Added step up to bow casting platform Always have a reserve battery for phone and jump start
  8. Think outside the box little. Some of the biggest fish I've caught...including my PB....were caught on a deep running crankbait in 4' of water.
  9. Always.....if it ain't broke....... Usually a Mister Twister 4" double -tail
  10. Could you post a pic? Thanks
  11. Thanks for all your suggestions.....much appreciated. I believe I'm going to order a Tracker Classic XL without the OB. I think it would be easier for my wife or son to sell after I kick. My question is.....if I put a 36V trolling motor on the bow and run it off of a single 36V lithium battery, should I run the Helix 10 (just one), Live Well, lights, bilge pump etc., off that battery or should I have a second 12V lithium for those? If the latter, what charger. Thanks Again.
  12. "Internal Combustion Motors Prohibited Fishing from a floating device with an internal combus- tion motor attached is not allowed regardless of whether the motor is in the water or not." Statewide Regs
  13. I'm going to be moving soon to an area that is dotted with lakes that have public access but do not allow internal combustion engines. Can any body show me a rig they use in this situation? I'm 75 YO so kayaks aren't an option. The lakes I'm most interested in do have concrete or gravel ramps. Also, The house we rented is a member of an HOA that doesn't allow boats to be parked in the driveway and my Ranger won't fit in the garage. So whatever I come up with will probably become my primary bass fishing machine. Thanks for any ideas. BTW.........Our state record LM came out of one of these lakes a few years ago.
  14. Ditto Gatortail worms. I know, I know, Zoom makes a G-tail but the colors are different and the tail doesn't "thump" like the original.
  15. Yakima Baits Hawg Boss Crankbaits (responsible for my PB), Original Mister Twister lizards, Rebel Jointed minnow in original patterns, BPS Spring Lizards, Mister Twister Slither Worms.
