Do you have a Bonafide? I was really wanting one but wanted to test drive one first but couldn’t find anyone in Roch area. So I bought a Jackson Big Rig

What Was Your Favorite One On Saturday Morning?
Bill Dance(bloopers were the best) and Hank Parker were my favorites. Bassmasters put me to sleep. I met Bill Dance at a Fishing University two day class. I learned how to use a baitcaster from him. Man that was a longtime ago. There was another show nobody mentioned called Fishing University. I don’t remember who hosted it anymore. It was a very technique based show not just look how many big fish we caught.

Pork ... Is back!?!?
Here is a message from Dillon I got about delivery “Shipping is $4 dollars total on the end of your purchase and I have sold all of my frogs I have complety made so it will take 2 weeks to get your batch done but I would order quick if you want some or it will take about 4 weeks if you order later because I'm getting close to selling out of my and batch as well”

Pork ... Is back!?!?

Pork ... Is back!?!?
I was just FB messaging with him (Dillon) last week. I loved fishing Unlce Josh pork on my flipping jigs so I’ll probably will be buying some of these. I wish he had a side photo of these. They don’t look like they have that thick pad of meat like UJ did.

Most embarrassing moments
I fished tournaments with a small club. For two years I won every tournament -12. I joined a bigger club for more competition. I got asked by a non-boater to be his partner at the old club. I was very cocky that morning at the boat launch. I got My butt handed to me. Big bag weights were coming in and all I had was 2 small bass.

Best terminal tackle storage ideas
Thanks for this link. Being that I’m a photographer by trade I’ve always used film canisters. No more film-no more canisters. Bonus is you can see through these

Which kayak?
I wanted a Bonafide 127 so bad but no one has one in my area so I could test drive 1st which I highly recommend. I made that mistake the first time last year by not test drive in a kayak first that I was not comfortable standing up and even though everyone says it is per I made that mistake the first time last year by not test driving a Kia first that I was not comfortable standing up in even though everyone says it is. I did find a Jackson big rig to test drive and man that thing is stable. What type of body of water do you fish because that’ll make a big difference for recommendations from other people?

Thinking About Giving Up
Is the I-Boating app free? “It says In-App Purchases” US $19.99 and I wasn’t sure what that meant Is the I-Boating app free? “It says In-App Purchases” US $19.99 and I wasn’t sure what that meant

Dick's Sporting Goods what are they thinking
My wife had to go return something to the mall so I took a walk through dicks just to see what was going on. Gun dept had 10 and 5 pistols left. All ammo gone. Nothing else hunting related. They have started moving a swimming dept into its place. Fishing dept is some what scarce. Only clearance I saw was one end cap that had “buy 5 get 5 free” but the prices were high.
