Trout
You guessed it. Been running spinners through there for the last couple years with no hits (when water is on). We can catch them when the water is off but I never make it there when that’s the case

Blade bait colors...
Gold, silver, purple and white have worked best to my memory. I’ve heard John Deere green is good.......

Trout
Our stocked trout on a particular tail water won’t eat any fishing lures and sometimes won’t eat live bait. They eat midges almost exclusively and very small midges at that. It’s one of the worst places to fish ever been . Luckily there are one or two other places you can some stockers but it’s slim pickings. I don’t think I’ve caught a single stocked trout in 2020 with my $21 stamp. Now the naturally reproducing trout in the smoky mountains, they bite like sharks and don’t require the stamp.

Lowrance vs HB vs Garmin for Tournament Kayak Bass & Crappie fishing
Hahaha . The way I understand it , they all show the same thing? I’m sure you’ve heard wheeler had all 3 brands on his boat this year and did very well. It’s just different interpretations of the same information, probably all boils down to personal preference.

Fishing Trout pattern Swim baits, where no Trout
If a bass met a trout for the very first time in its entire life, it would try to eat it. Even if it was resting, it will now think about eating that trout for the rest of their relationship. I’ve seen bass follow 5 foot water snakes for quite some time, they only look at other creatures with one idea in mind

Pies
Mom sent me home with some derby pie today. It’s like pecan pie with chocolate chips and maybe a slightly different filling, not sure . It’s really d**ned good, that I am sure of

What size fuel tank to buy?
Yeah but you’ve got that thing loaded down with bullet sinkers for Texas rigs to the OP, You say you won’t be running it for long periods. If this is true 100% of the time, the 3 gallon will be fine. But like everyone said a bigger one will allow you to drive further or maybe one day try bigger waters. The main factor on fuel economy: is your 9.9 two stroke or 4?

Best line for Ned Rigs
No votes for 65 lb braid? I thought I read on here that fish weren’t line shy and would bite a lure attach to steel winch cable ?
