Anyone recommend a good realtor?

I guess the “finger” things in the “crank” box are more of a novelty than anything. So yes!

I wish they would make a normal 3700 size box for cranks such as squarebills. The crank boxes, while awesome for a select few baits, don’t seem to hold a lot of baits.

Today is the day to buy Plano Edge boxes if you want them. They are on sale for 25% off at BPS/Cabelas and there is a 10% off online purchases code for CLUB card holders. These discounts do indeed stack.

Take your time. The R-series is an excellent entry level boat.

I will say that I have a knack for finding great deals, and in general, electronic accessories, no matter their retail value generally don't change the price much on used boats. Your find is still a good deal and one to consider. However, I think if you were to miss out on it, another one equally could become available in a reasonable amount of time. I doubt you will find many (if any) 17 ft R series (R70-73) boats with Ultrex on them for sale. What's your budget and how far are you willing to travel?

The last upgrade for a while. I added a TuffSkinz motor cover. My vision for this thing has been realized!

$5500 for a 94 Ranger R72 with a 90 HP Mercury is a high average price. For reference, I bought a '96 R70 with a 2002 Mercury 125 hp and ultrex for $5500 from a very reputable dealer last year. The boat was in excellent condition with a small blemish on the keel. The R72 boats can only fit 6'6" rods in the lock (the R70 single console can fit up to 7'3" comfortably). The R series are great hulls and very affordable (and were designed to be affordable). Lots of them on the water.

Forget it (referring to what I was going to post). There are just too many uncertainties.

The mortality rates of threads infected with coronavirus on this website is very high. I just pray that this thing, whatever it is, and it's impact both whatever the media causes and whatever it physically causes is short-lived.

Sounds like you are building a 1 acre aquarium.

Thanks for the detailed reply! I suspected something similar to this. Very busy with up to weeks at a time without a day “off” or at home. In high school I wrote an report on NASCAR and one component of it was the “day-to-day” lives of the drivers. Back then I was surprised to find out just how busy they were (PR, prep, travel etc). I suspected something similar in the fishing world, which you have confirmed. Thanks for the info. If a follow up questions is ok, what kind of professional demands do you have in the “off-season” is a less busy time of year? What would a similar stretch of time look like?

Flex Seal may solve it temporarily. A better solution might be some stainless rivets and a healthy bead of caulking.

I messaged him on Facebook on the 28th and he told me two weeks.

What's your day-to-day work/home life like (other than tournament/practice days)? How do you structure your time as a pro angler? I don't imagine everyday is the same, so give can you give us a few examples of your time commitments as they demand you?

Duracell 31 AGM at Sam's Club. They might still be on sale for $159 (usually $179) and are absolutely the best bang for the buck even at full price.

How "new" is the unit? In the last year Humminbird has released an upgraded HW (High-wide) with a "Low-Q transducer. The technicalities of how the hardware and function compares to other brands, I do not know. However, this is the 2D sonar technology that Humminbird claims produces the best returns. I have it on 2 of my units and I think it is fantastic.

For people who need a battery Sams is having a sale on Duracell AGM 31s for 159.99. 20 dollars off each

Challenge accepted! Hahaha

Took a detour home today and HOT DIGGITY we’ve got open water!

Na, there’s rumor of a Live 360 from Humminbird coming soon. well unless my wife gets the job at Garmin for which she is interviewing... that may change things.

I believe 50ft is max depth and 200 ft Range. The Facebook video shows it pretty nicely. https://www.facebook.com/GarminMarine/videos/879210002510017/?vh=e

I love Humminbird 360 and just got the Mega, but Garmin has beat Humminbird to the “Live 360.” I think this is a technology that’s truly worth the phrase “game changer”. This is just cool! Scanning the bottom in front (or whatever direction) of the boat in real time with apparently high quality returns.

Pretty sure this designation means it must be worn at all times to “count” as a PFD in the boat. In other words, if you are not wearing it and don’t have another appropriately approved PFD in the boat, you are out of compliance.
