Hawaii
I like Maui. I would go back in a heartbeat if not for ride. I hate airplanes and boats are too slow.

Fishing With The Wind VS Fishing Into The Wind
99% of the time I am going to fish into the wind. I am a boat control freak and can’t get enough control going with the wind.

credit cards with rewards.
We have been using a cash back for years. It beats the rewards cards by a lot.

hot dogs
That is one thing that I don’t ever eat. Even as a kid I never liked them. Now give me a good ribeye or KC strip and no telling how much I could put away.

Screw lock bait keeper question
Humm I’ve never seen a chatter bait or spinner bait with a screw lock on them. Can you provide a link or pics?
-
WIYB
I have a system similar to A-Jay’s. Mine are color coded according to application in the spinning rod box. The others are by length.

Fishing The Same Spots/History
If we followed that rule we’d be in a world of hurt. We’ve been catching up to 30 bass in the same deep (40-70’ deep) since the spawn ended.

Trolling motor?
That may be farther away than you want to go but it might be worth it to call Scott or Brad at Marine Repair Center in Springfield to see what they have in stock. They are a 2 man shop and may not be open until Wednesday. I don’t know if it will help you but you are welcome to say Dayne Saunders said to call. 417-933-9191

Minn Kota vs Power Pole
I’d only be interested in the MK since I have a one boat network but I have too much invested in my Ulterra to be making any changes right now.

Theft proof mounting bolts
Get non deductible replacement theft coverage on your boat and forget about it.

How is Tackle Warehouse for pricing on large items like Minn Kota Ulterra's and Talons?
I wouldn’t buy those kinds of items from any place that is farther away than I would drive. Too many things can go wrong and need repairs. My Ulterra has been back to the shop 3 times. I get repairs and quick turn around.

Keitech substitute…
I do that. It doesn’t seem to help much. I tried one at the end of the day as I already had 6 setups rigged. I only caught 2 on it but it is still intact. I’ll know more after the holiday weekend when I get to go back.

Fishing very stained water ?
I have never fished tidal water but I do fish the upper James River on Table Rock Lake in Missouri. The visibility is less than 2’. Typically a few early ones on a spinnerbait then shaky for most of the day.

Schools Of Bait In 10-15ft, How would you fish them?
Yesterday up the James River on Table Rock shad were everywhere and only gar seemed to be feeding on them. The bass were close to the bank in 2-5 fow. There are miles of the river with millions of threadfin shad.

Mono vs fluoro
I’ve used both. I never noticed a difference in knot strength. I have noticed a difference in fish caught. Fluorocarbon way out performs mono in our Missouri waters.

Keitech substitute…
Ok thanks. We went through a bunch bass fishing today. I’ll get some ready for tomorrow.

Hook Sharpening & Replacing Baits
If you fished where I do you would see the need to be able to sharpen hooks. I carry an Eze Lap in the front of the boat all the time. I only sharpen single hooks not trebles.
-
Keitech substitute…
So is the cut behind the hook bend, in front of it or is the bend in the middle?
-
Football jig or no for dragging bottom?
I’ve used a lot of different types of jigs. The football is my favorite for most everything except swim and bladed jigs.

Keitech substitute…
That would be great. I’m having a little comprehension problem.
