Boat Cover Advice
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.

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

Yes, another Scale Q
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.

Cops, Sheriffs, Deputy's, any LEO
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.

Spooling up for Bull Shoals
You might want to have a look at the Ozark Anglers fishing forum site. There are some Bull Shoals guys on it. What part of the lake will you be fishing? A guy who calls himself fish24/7 evidently lives on or near the lake.

Trolling Motor on a Pontoon - Speed?
I’m guessing that your pontoon would have more friction drag than my fiberglass boat but I really don’t have any way to know for sure. With that being said I have the same trolling motor on it. I have 3 new 31 series batteries on it. Sometimes I put it on high to cross a cove or move down a bank. My gps rarely shows 3 mph. It is normally 2.8 or 2.9. You might want to keep the outboard.

On that size reel I either use 8/1 Power Pro or 6# fluorocarbon depending on the situation.

Top 3 Baits Throwing Right Now
Right now one is out doing the rest...NED. Yesterday my neighbor and I had 45 bass in 3 hours with 9 nice keepers. All were caught on Ned. We also used swimbaits and spinnerbaits...0.

Lures that you use that others probably never heard of?
Once in a while I throw my Fincharoo.

Bladed Jigs
All it take is on Cease and Desist order then things look different. I’ve been down that rocky road.

Bladed Jigs
It really doesn’t matter if he is selling or not. Zman has the patent and get very picky about people making baits like theirs.

You can but it may be a patent infringement.

Power trim issue possibly fixed
I have no clue. I’m not a tech. I thought there was only up and down. I was in sales and just watched them when I wasn’t busy.

Power trim issue possibly fixed
I have always been told that when you have a bad relay, replace both at the same time.

Shocked by ned rig success?
Ned saved the day for me. They hardly hit swimbaits today and would not touch the shaky. A keeper smallmouth took Ned on the first cast. I wound up catching 17 with 4 nice keepers. Molting craw and Alabama craw were the best colors.

1st boat- Solix/Transducer Options
I’m not sure about seeing both at the same time. It may be a possibility. I haven’t tried it. If you have more than one Solix, you can network the via ethernet and see anything that is connected . To control a trolling motor from a depth finder you will have to have an Ipilot link trolling motor.

Rod Socks
So you are actually talking about shrink tubing instead of shrink wrapping, correct?
