  1. My 2016 ZX225 that this forum helped me pick out.
  2. I bought the skeeter. Couldn’t be happier.
  3. Mine is 18’5” and I’d sell it for $5500 as is. I’m all but ready to pull the trigger on a newer longer boat.
  4. I paid $6200 for it 3-4 years ago. It’s bern a great boat. Ol Merc 2 stroke still runs great. I had to add a couple fish finders and fix a live well but overall zero complaints. What size boat are you looking for?
  5. I played college football. Wrestling has its plus’s but he’ll get more girlfriends playing football.
  6. I have a 2003 Triton and couldn’t imagine finding another boat better around that year. Everyone has opinions and their personal loves. My advice is to find a boat that has the options you want as much as possible at the price range. Some upgrades ppl have done theirselves. A boat and a motor and a loaded boat are $10k in difference.
  7. 2013 Legend Alpha 211 SRC Has a Merc 2 stroke 250 2016 Phoenix 819 Has a Merc 200 2 stroke 2015 Nitro Z-8 Pro Has a Merc 250 2015 Skeeter zX225 Has a Yamaha 225 Nitro has all anyone would want added on. Legend is really close and has the best look to me. Phoenix is a little smaller without power poles but is a nice boat. Skeeter is nice overall. What’s your honest unbiased opinions. All within $1,500 of each other.
  8. If I didn't go everyone would call talking about how much everyone weighed in. If I go I usually find out they lied the week before. Lol
  9. I played college football. That my squad OU. Football-fb. I was number 90.
  10. I love all my local spots within an hour of my house but I take the wife, camper, and boat every spring and fall for around 4-5 days to further spots that I hear or read about. It's fun.
  11. Love my shaky head and a 7" black ribbon tail worm. I dip the rail in different colors and scents. If I can find a drop off or a weed bed I feel confident I'll catch a fish or two.
  12. I try to take a 4 or 5 day trip to somewhere I've read there is good bass fishing that isn't a huge lake. Went to Big Hill Resevoir by Cherryvale, Ks last year. Had a blast. Caught my top 3 or 4 smallies. Going to Sardis this year in SE Oklahoma. Looking at google earth preparing for my trip and I noticed an island that looks like a cemetery. Anyone seen this in person? Is it an island cemetery? Any spots I should fish? PM if you want. I'm 4 hours from there and won't steal your honey holes.
  13. I had a game warden here in northern Oklahoma tell me an average largemouth grows a little less than one pound per year here. I'm sure it's different in different areas.
  14. If someone asks me what I'm catching them on I'll tell them every time. I want everyone to have fun. If they ask where I caught them I tell them I caught them all in the mouth. I try not to give up my spots. And if if someone were to go through my stuff I would slowly break their fingers.
  15. Anyone in that area know of anything?
  16. I use the Berkely FL and have never used conditioner. I always throw it out gently a couple times and get it wet and then regular fishing. Love it. I don't care for braid but I know I'm odd.
  17. I was under a dam catching sand bass on an ultra light with 6 lb test one time and foul hooked a 22 pound spoon bill in the back with my jig. Best fight I've ever had. All but ran out of line a few times. A group actually formed to watch me finish it. Thought I had a monster striper but no sir.
  18. I wonder what a guy with concrete shoes on would look like on my DI. Lol
  19. I have a friend I fish with. We have a gentlemens agreement that we don't hit each other's spots without the other unless by ourselves. It works for us.
  20. I appreciate the info. I'll definitely have a look at both before I buy this offseason. Are boat dealers as bad as car dealers whenever it comes to trade-ins? Should I just try to sell it out right?
  21. I assume going from my tr175 (under 18) that any 20+ foot boat would feel like it had a lot more storage but I feel like I have decent storage now for a boat that size.
  22. The boat I have now is a smaller triton and I like it quite a bit but I've heard the larger tritons put water on your face in choppy water but I hadn't been on one.
  23. I have a 2003 triton tr-175 with a 115 Mercury on it that I like quite a bit. It's gotten a bit small now that I've gotten into some tournament fishing this year. I'm thinking of getting a 4-6 year old Skeeter zx200. Seems to be what I'm liking the most for that price range. Any preferences for a different boat or dislikes of the zx200?
  24. I'm from a small town in northern Oklahoma named Shidler. Our high school has about 80 kids 9-12. I'm volunteer coaching this year for the fishing team another guy started. We won the state championship last year. Had more kids come out. Any idea how to try to get sponsors to get some underprivileged kids some equipment? We finished middle of the pack the last couple years at Pic Wick for nationals without much knowledge of the lake.
  25. We used to go just for frogs with a small piece of red cloth and a treble hook from an old flat bottom boat.
