  1. So no one knows.
  2. I put some heads in the mail for you so you can try and see if you want to get that mold.
  3. I didn’t pay enough attention to the link. The regular mold has several cavities from 1/16 to 1/4 oz. Sorry about the link.
  4. I want the 2.5” swing impact, not fat or skinny.
  5. That size is working. I’m wanting to order some but can’t find out how many are in a pack. Do any of you guys know?
  6. I am partial to the Midwest finesse mold. If toy don’t like the keepers a bit of super glue gel and it sticks to anything. I’ve used from #2 to #1/0 in mine. https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Do-it_Jig_Mold_Midwest_Finesse_Jigs/descpage-DMMFJ.html
  7. When I bought my Z20 I had been to the Ranger dealer 3 miles down the road. I thought I had a deal made on the Ranger. It didn’t turn out the way I hoped. They held fast on their msrp and offered me 25% below trade value on my Champion. The Nitro dealer was below msrp and gave me $6,000 more for my boat. The Nitro was $21,000 lower than the Ranger.
  8. I don’t normally carry rods in the truck, however, yesterday I met a friend to go fishing in his boat. I had a 6’, 6 1/2’, 7’, and a 7 1/2’ riding shotgun and it was fine.
  9. Thank you. My wife saw it and insisted that I buy it. Then she said it didn’t look good behind my white truck. I was told to go find a red one.
  10. They used to be low grade and didn’t hold up. Things have changed. Evidently Johnny Morris made some changes a few years ago. I have a Nitro Z20 that is pushing 7 years old. It is holding up well.
  11. Experiment with wire angles.
  12. Totally awesome from Dollar General is a very good cheap cleaner.
  13. You might want to research first. When he redid Wonders of World it took 7 years.
  14. Have you looked at Atwood, Springfield or Overton’s?
  15. It may be possible. I don’t have those but I do have several different Shimano spinning reels and the handles are interchangeable.
  16. If you spin a hub (I have) you can still idle back to your truck. You just can’t power load.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. I use the yellow ones. They don’t mark my boat. They are good for about 200 power loads.
  20. 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.
  21. Jig trailer sometimes but mostly Texas
  22. That looks like a new rig. Congrats.
