Johnny Morris Platinum Signature Series (red rods)
Just checked the website - they don't name the guides on the Furys. Sierra Trout and Panfish and the Kadens use Sea Guide's XO Colt, Hyperlite and Maverick use Sea Guide's regular. Every other line uses Fuji.

The hair police.
I had long hair in High School and College - when I got to AF Basic in 1980, the T.I. looked at me, smiled and said, "I haven't seen one of you in ten years."...then he made me Dorm Cheif. After getting out in 1984, I let it grow again...still have the ponytail almost 40 years later...wife gets on me occasionally, but not really hard.

Trolling Motor and DI Graph Wiring to Batteries
It looks right far as I can see - wiring is a little messy. But yes, you can direct wire the graph to the battery...don't forget the fuse - as close to the battery as possible.

Trolling Motor and DI Graph Wiring to Batteries
Don't have to worry about voltage issues...connect everything you want that way...you'll just run the batteries down quicker. I'd balance it by having one graph connected to battery #1 and the other graph connected to battery #2...then you'll get more even draw. One thing...you might get interference on the graphs when the TM is running. I avoid this by having a smaller (35ah) deep cycle to run everything BUT the TM...TM gets it's own, dedicated battery(ies) .

Tackle Warehouse July 4th/Labor Day Sale
Well worth it - since I'd picked up a Tatula 100 and a Supreme XT over the winter in the same (or close) gear ratio...and I didn't need 3 of that IPT class.

Cover
You can find really good covers for 'next to nothing' on Amazon. This one cost the wife $70...she got it for my birthday last fall. Trailerable, elastic rim, adjustable straps, 600 denier...top of the line, just from an 'unknown' company.

We are loving the strength and durability of this affordable braid!
This week. Comes with getting paid sponsors - you gotta hock their stuff or they'll pull their sponsorship...just like the multiple Suzuki posts...ya, it gets repetitive and bothersome to us - but it helps Glenn pay for the server and bandwidth needed to keep BR alive.

There was just enough things that I wanted to give me free shipping after the discount. Some plastics, a reel cover, some more Owner Block Heads and some barrel weights.

The drop shot
Drop-shot - toss it out and LEAVE IT ALONE - kinda like bobber fishing...you stare at your line instead of the bobber. Ned/Finesse jig - slowly work it back...at least you're doing something besides sitting and watching. Gim is young yet...still hasn't learned patience.

The drop shot
For me, a finesse T-Rig is a light jig with an off-set hook and a Zoom Finesse Worm...slowly drag it along the bottom and through the weeds. Runs 3/32oz to 1/4 oz https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Gamakatsu_Offset_Hook_Finesse_Jig_Head_4pk/descpage-GOHF.html
