Proper line for Jigs
I use fc for jigs. Better slack line sensitivity than braid. I use P line tactical or Diawa J Flouro Samurai. No line conditioner needed with those 2.

Trolling Motor’s
I had the Minn Kota 55lb EnduraMax and it worked well when I had my Pond Prowler. Had a 30 lb on it before that and it wasn’t enough going into the wind. I’d find a used Minn Kota before I’d buy a brand new off brand trolling motor.

Getting new tires for bass tracker 175
The Goodyear Endurance doesn’t come in a 13 inch. I put Carlisle 8 ply radials on my 175 trailer and they are holding up well

MECHANICAL SAFETY: How to Prevent Engine From Starting?
I just changed the prop on my tracker with 60hp mercury last week. Never considered the engine starting on its own while I worked on it. The key was out of the ignition though.

15 lb fluro sound about right for chain pickerel?
I’ve caught quite a few chain pickerel while bass fishing, including a couple of big ones. All were caught on 12lb fc or copoly. Never had one break me off.

Favorite Jerkbait/Mid-Crank/Topwater Rod
I agree. I used a 705cb for jerkbaits once and wasn’t a fan. Like it for crankbaits though

How often do you still use an anchor?
No anchor in my boat. Never needed one

Why can't I cast far?
Sounds like the line is wrapped around a guide or the hook keeper
-
What do you follow your search baits up with?
Most of the time I’ll keep throwing the same bait. A few years ago a nice bass hit a buzzbait at the boat as I started to lift it out of the water. A few casts later I caught her as soon as the buzzbait hit the water.

What’s the best flourocarbon that’s not super expensive?
P-Line Tactical. Been using it for years with no problems. On sale at BPS now

Looking for a jig
I agree. I throw the LC compact jig a lot with a Missile Mini D chunk. Smaller jig = smaller trailer. I also use the Tour Level jig a lot with a Rage Craw.

What do you buy more often, new or used reels?
