Jig Man

I use Seaguar Red label. I change it yearly except for 6# it only seems to last a few months.

I glue my TRDs to my jig heads. I use super glue gel. It holds all day. The lock down cap keeps it from drying up for several weeks. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Loctite-Super-Glue-Gel-Control-0-14-fl-oz-Bottle/19289668?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&wl13=1009&adid=22222222420449455996&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=t&wl3=501107745824&wl4=pla-293946777986&wl5=9023764&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=local&wl12=19289668&wl13=1009&veh=sem_LIA&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrKzem4P68AIV-AqtBh0_5AWmEAQYBCABEgJvUfD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

For a trolling motor battery you need to consider reserve capacity. That is what will keep you on the water with power. Sams usually has some good deals on agms.

I’ve seen that in several states. I stopped and asked about it. The guys manning it said they spray the boat and trailer with hot water which will kill invasive plants and animals.

You have been given some sound advice. I do a lot of Ned rig fishing with 1/16 oz. jig heads so I also have a very light bait. There are a few things that I do that haven’t been mentioned. When casting a bait like that I allow the rod tip to drop as i feather the line with my fore finger. I stop the line with my finger and hold it on the spool as I close the bail with the other hand. Then I slightly lift the rod tip as I take up a little slack. The line never has a chance to become loose or get looped. I do a lot of fishing on windy days. This method saves me a lot of grief.

It isn’t always the case about color. I’ve seen many times when they would take most colors and also seen the time when they only really wanted a specific one. That is why I have many setups for the techniques that I use. I can have multiples with different colors rigged up.

I hope this comes across right. Your stuff is worth what ever you will take for it and what ever someone is willing to pay. You may be able to get some ideas from the for sale forums here and at Bass Resource. Normally the seller is more proud of his stuff than the buyer is. With this crazy market, I’d be inclined to price it a bit high. You can always come down in a negotiation but never can you go up.

I wouldn’t mind having a Caymas boat but I would want a Merc 300 instead of the Yammy. But I will have to keep my Z20 for now.

I don’t know where you are that fishing is going out of style. It sure is not around here. Campgrounds are full and used boats are scarce. Hundreds of tournaments are held each week. Even the high school tournaments have hundreds of boats in them.

You will find many variations in the same body of water, sometimes even in the same area.

What size outboard do you have that flops around? Do you have a real light weight boat?

It’s a largemouth.

They sure are good at doing that with boat companies.

Baits...bps most choices

Bubble gum is a great pre spawn color.

Like JFrancho said Aurora Canvas makes a great cover. I had one that was still good after 14 years when I traded boats. However, I don’t think $400 will buy one.

Need more information plus a pic if you can get one.

I prefer the tie to be in the middle of the spool what ever type of reel that I am putting line on.

I tried every digital version that I could find. I never found anything that was consistent so I bought a Boga Grip. I am extremely happy with it.

I fish shaky here in MO all year long.

Even the body shape is nothing like a spot. I catch them nearly every trip.

I have 2 grandchildren in the police department in Springfield, MO. My granddaughter is second shift patrol and major accidents. My grandson is a SWAT sniper on call 24/7 as well as a full week’s work. He can’t be more than 30 minutes away from the office at any time for rapid response.
