Met John Morris Today
You might want to research first. When he redid Wonders of World it took 7 years.

Boat pedestal
Have you looked at Atwood, Springfield or Overton’s?

Crazy Shimano question
It may be possible. I don’t have those but I do have several different Shimano spinning reels and the handles are interchangeable.

Spare Prop
If you spin a hub (I have) you can still idle back to your truck. You just can’t power load.

Favorite cold water bass lures?
In the winter I fish Table Rock in SW MO. The water temp usually stays in the mid to upper 40s. I go up river or into large creeks where the water isn’t deeper that about 40 feet. I almost always use several baits but the best for the last few years has been Plastisol worms from Strike King and Zman. Yesterday I caught 16 bass on them rigged weedless shaky with a Midwest finesse head and a VMC EWG 2/0 hook.

Time for Some Truck Maintenance
It is good that you have the skills to take care of that stuff. I don’t. I depend on a friend who works at the local dealership. When he says something needs replaced I say ok.

Bow roller
I use the yellow ones. They don’t mark my boat. They are good for about 200 power loads.

Off The Grid
I used to do that all the time until I could afford to not do it. Now I require a paved ramp and a courtesy dock thank you very much.

You Cant Make This Up
Why do you take the key out? I never have.

make shift handrail
I’d make two recommendations. The Ulterra and Millennium seats. I had to go to the Ulterra because of broken ribs that didn’t heal properly. I just added the seat for comfort and safety.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
I certainly hope so. I suffered through the bad times when Lamar Hunt brought in has been quarterbacks who couldn’t win. His son has turned the franchise around by being willing to spend money and bring in quality people.

boat porpoising
I don’t know if there is a fix. Skeeters have that reputation. I’ve never been in one that didn’t porpoise.

Road To The Super Bowl 2023
It’s been years since Super Bowl halftime has been entertaining, to say nothing about the commercials.

2 Steering cables ?
Don’t fool around with safety features. There wouldn’t be a second cable if it weren’t necessary.
-
Ribbed Paddle Tail Swim Bait Molds ?
Yes I have one that came from a shop in Wichita. I think it was called a ripper. I believe it is a Do-It product.
-
Hard Jerkbaits : Bait Cast or Spinning Set Up ?
When I throw them I use bc because I like the way it feels and I have more control.
-
Baits for suspended smallies in a reservoir?
I find them occasionally at Stockton suspended like that. Swim jigs with beaver trailers work for me.

White bass screenshots
It’s been a while since I’ve seen whites stacked up like that. We used to see them a lot in the fall and winter on Bull Shoals and Table Rock. I’ve caught a lot of them around 30’ deep and spooned them as deep as 60’.

New boat.
Nice looking piece of equipment. I had an 18’ for several years. It was a good boat.

How is that different from a Texas rig?
