All GPS units I have seen show speed over ground (SOG) including the H2O. All four that I own show speed. The speed relating to flowing water is not indicated though like the speed sensors on some sonar units and speedometers on boats.

Garnet, what principal is involved that will not allow for doubling the amperage when connecting like batteries in parallel? I've never heard of that not being the case. Does the same principal apply when doubling the voltage when connecting like batteries in series?

I have one and it works great with Navionics software and LEI Hotspots. I always carry it with me when I am fishing with others especially if they don't have a mapping GPS. I use the larger combo sonar/gps units too. I use it for non water navigation also when hunting. I would recommend the H2OC though since it is color and has a higher definition screen.

My hand guns prefer the Federals.

schootermcbob, I can't reply to your last PM (function still screwed up and the suggested remedy still does not work) so send me an e-mail so I can respond. Thanks for asking purdum43@aol.com

shootermcbob, the PM function keeps screwing up. The picture you requested is at: http://charlottesville.craigslist.org/boa/940141952.html

I only do it with braid and I do it by tying to a fence and walking away, around a tree, then another tree unitl I get to the end. Then I disconnect it from the spool, go back to the fence, tie on that end to the reel spool and reel the line in under tension.

BARON49, that was discussed over a month ago on a thread about rod tip groving and braid. Fishing in muddy water a lot has the most effect since the many fibers of braid will hold the water suspended sand particles. The sand particles are harder than most of the less expensive rod guide inserts.

Thanks Strike King, my perception must be incorrect. I don't record his shows so don't have the benefit of HD, slo mo, and replay. No, I don't have the blooper DVD.

That has never been a concern of mine. In the summer, rod locker heat buildup will probably cause more line damage than sun exposure.

Largemouth are the primary species that I target with the Silver Buddy. At the present time, the Silver Buddy is the only brand of blade bait I use.

Judging from the background, most of his shows are at non-public accessable phosphate pits in Florida. Those are the ones where he mainly has his boat in one position and makes numerous casts to a particular spot and catches 4#+ bass every time. If you watch real closely at the end of his show, you can tell that the "blooper" where he falls out of the boat is staged as you can see the rope disturbing the water that pulls him in.

"The wire going up to the TM switch" originates from where, how far, and what is the switch for?

If a fishing line has the qualities you are looking for, the cost if it should not be a factor. It is the only connection you have between your rod/reel and that high priced lure you have tied on. It will also be your connection to that fish of a lifetime when you hook it.

To make the cord last longer, before installing, treat the cord with bow string wax to reduce friction. Eliminate any rough areas that may be causing too much friction.

I don't recall ever catching a bass or crappie with them on the bottom. All the hits I get with them are on the fall. Yes some fish are snagged when it is pulled off the bottom and may be any species.

From an old advertizement, all the Bomber spinnerbaits in all configurations were called Bushwhackers.

Its a navigation term that determines right of way. Coast Guard Regulations Stand On Vessel: Rule 17 (a) Where one of two vessels is to keep out of the way, the other shall keep her course and speed. The latter vessel may however take action to avoid collision by her maneuver alone, as soon as it becomes apparent to her that the vessel required to keep out of the way is not taking appropriate action in compliance with these Rules. ( When, from any cause, the vessel required to keep her course and speed finds herself so close that collision cannot be avoided by the action of the give-way vessel alone, she shall take such action as will best aid to avoid collision. © A power-driven vessel which takes action in a crossing situation in accordance with subparagraph (a)(ii) of this Rule to avoid collision with another power-driven vessel shall, if the circumstances of the case admit, not alter course to port for a vessel on her own port side. (d) This Rule does not relieve the give-way vessel of her obligation to keep out of the way.

It is a Bomber lure. The head paint is the identifier. I'm surprised that the skirt hasn't disintegrated by now. I have several single and double Colorado spinnerbaits that are the same color. The skirt is vinyl.

Adapting a smaller prop to fit your motor may solve your speed concerns.

Max, Booyah's version of that spinnerbait is called the "Counter Strike".
