When spooling fluro for a flipping/pitching reel how do you recommend doing it?

I have two old humminbirds 788ci and 788c would I be able to put the new lakemaster in them the ones that have hotspot (might be wrong term but helps give high percentage areas) im asummkng they won’t take it right?

Lol I like cheap does this also work for a solix 15 and a 12?

What is your favorite brand? Lb test etc for flipping wood?

sorry if this is a basic question but what is a slack

When you hear people talking about leaving dirty water for clearer water how exactly can you determined that do you just drive to that one spot and put your lure in the water and see how far you can see it go down?

What would you recommend for helix 12 mouth at the bow and at the wheel? Kvd kong are so expensive and just wondering what most do or would do?

Are these the ones you can stand in?

How much is it to buy/install a jack plate roughly for a 150 hp mec? Sorry for the basic question just hoping some one has experience this

I really like this idea actually! Which exact models would you recommend? CHIRP MEGA SI GPS G2N at the helm and which at the bow?

Lol Op does not have 10k he wants to get the best electronics he can for around 4000. I'm pretty sure I'm getting the gen2 hummingbirds 12 and 9. But wanted to hear everyone's thoughts and opinions.

I was debating getting a lowrance 12 new gen or a humminbird 12 new gen can someone explain to me the main difference between the two units? Not trying to start a debate just wondering the main befits of both

I'm deciding between these two rod brands and was wondering what people's thoughts are for which one is better? I know this is just your opinion but I'm curious to see how people side thank you

Thoughts on this swimbait?

Des Moines Ia. Thanks everyone for the replies. I don't know if I pay for a water pump replacemeant I pay for a full winterizeing every year is all I know. Water does shoot through it soomthly every time

I bought the boat and motor used. The guy used it for tournament fishing it has 100 hours on it do I need to break it in after it has been winterized

When you say trim the motor all the way in does that mean past what the gauge says because it tells me to trim down to where it says OK ? thank you for spending the time and helping me

I have a mercury motor 150 4stoke and I've been driving it around 5 mph max and figured it's time to speed up and test it out. I have a gauge that tells me to lower or higher my trim and my RPM well it's always been stuck on the number two for my RPM but last time I took it out I got it up to about 7 mph and the RPM read perfect but after that it always wanted me to go higher than two where it was normally set every time before what could this mean? also is there a RPM I should stay under while I'm picking up speed sorry if this seems confusing and I'm just not exactly sure what to do with the rpm reading. I'm sure this is really basic stuff I'm just trying to understand though since this is my first year with a bass boat

Do you spool your reel with mono before braid? If so how much. This would be for any top water rod. also does it hinder anything?

Why would it depend? Don't they always relate to structure? I live in Iowa

What's a hard water season?

Is there really a time of year where these are just not that good

There is so much black stuff on everything this can't be right can it? It's like water/oil everywhere
