Producto Tournament Worms
Thanks guys. I went to the producto website and found out that they are manufactured about 10 minutes from my house. I'm going to contact them and see if I can buy them direct to save on shipping.

Producto Tournament Worms
I love Producto Tournament Worms. They work wonders down here in FL. I can't find anywhere to buy them anymore. Dicks doesn't carry them anymore and Gander Mtn quit carrying them also. Bass Pro never carried them and Tackle Warehouse doesn't carry them either. Does anyone know where I can buy the Producto Tournament Worms or an imitation Tournament worm.

Field & Stream Fishing Rod - Reviews?
I have the 7'6" Tec Spec Flipping Rod. I think I paid around $40 after coupons and points. I like the rod and would compare it to a St. Croix Mojo Bass. It is a little on the heavy side but i'm not one to complain about a few ounces.

Hp Question 16Ft Boat
You will be lucky to get that boat on plane with a 9.9. I wouldn't go any less than a 30hp. If you can't afford the bigger motor, why not get a couple year old boat with a motor that still has the factory warranty.

Outboard Overheating
Is the engine actually overheating, or is just the warning buzzer going off. The engine should feel considerably hotter if it is getting to the point of the buzzer going off.

Let Me Be The First. Jon Boat ???
Me and a buddy routinely fish out of a 1236 or 1232 and don't have any problems with either of us ever falling out. My jon the skinnier of the two has a plywood floor while his has just the aluminum floor. We both fish standing up 95% of the time. Stability is going to be determined by your and your partners balance. We also weight about 430 lbs combined. My dad was a little more unstable when we fished in my boat but he hasn't been in a jon boat in probably 20 years or more. Me and my buddy used to always fish out of a canoe and neither of us stood up all day. If I were to fish in a canoe now I would proabably feel very unstable.

Trailer Light Question
I have a c channel trailer so all of my wiring is basically exposed and available for inspection. I rewired the whole trailer when I bought the boat in 2009. Rewiring will only take me about an hour, but I still believe the issue is a bad ground. Can I check my ground by attaching my ground wire from the lights to the negative side of a 12 volt battery? I don't believe I have a short unless it is on the vehicle side because the issue happens with both trailer lights. I believe because the issue happens with both lights that my ground issue may be with where the ground attaches to the front of the trailer.

Trailer Light Question
It has worked in the past so I know that the wiring is correct. I understand that I most likely have a bad ground. How do I check for a good ground. I have gone over the wiring with the exception of the wiring that is fed through the pvc guide rails and everything looks good. I would like to be able to check for ground so I know where I need to start replacing wire/s.

Trailer Light Question
I am having some issues with the lights on my trailer. I believe the issue is a bad ground wire but I don't know why it isn't grounded correctly. Here is the issue. When I have the lights on my tow vehicle on the brake lights go off when I hit the brakes, but the running lights work fine. Also when I am stopped and turn my turn signals on when I have my lights on the turn signal works but the brake lights still aren't on. I believe I have a ground issue because the lights work fine besides the brake lights when my headlights are on. Here is my setup. The ground wire that comes off my tow vehicle is bolted to the front of the trailer and my trailer lights have a ground wire bolted to the back of the trailer basically using the trailer as the ground. Is there anyway to test the ground wires on my trailer to ensure they have a good ground. The wiring and lights on the trailer are less than 4 years old. The lights are mounted on PVC guide rails and are never submerged under water.

Iphone Vs Droid Razr
Bassclary when I had my iPhone i had the 16gb and also used it as my MP3 Player. It made my phone very sluggish. I also did the same thing when I got my android phone. I have since deleted all the music on my android and have uploaded all my music to music.google.com. The first 20,000 songs you upload are free and available from any computer. I love having all my music available at just about any time I need it. It will also cache recently listened to music for offline play.

Iphone Vs Droid Razr
I have to agree with first two posters. I have a Samsung Captivate and it is way better than my iPhone 3G that I had previously. I am very surprised that Apple didn't make the new iPhone's screen bigger. The 3.5" screen on the iphone seems a little small. I think the perfect size is 4". All the new phones are going to 4.5" screens and I personally think that is a little too big. The bigger screen is nice and for watching movies or playing games it probably makes a big difference but for business purposes the 4" screen is perfect. Do your research on the Android phones. I know the Samsung Galaxy SII which came out in the past couple of months is a really nice phone. Samsung makes some good phones. If I was buying a new phone today I would be looking to get the newest Google Nexus phone. The google phones will be updated first and don't come with all the bloatware or customized OS that the phone companies put on the phone. In a sense you are getting an android phone the way google intended it to be. It will be faster and will get regular updates from google before the other phones get updates.

Credit Card Fraud
I got hit a little while ago. I think the nice take out girl at a local restaurant swiped my info with a card reader and within the hour had a $20 charge for some holding corp. The bank flagged it by 9pm that night and my account was frozen until I could get a replacement card on Monday. Not too much of a hassle with the exception of having to change all my online accounts card information. The bank refunded the fraudulent charge and that was it. My mom got hit with the same thing years ago on her CC.

This Is Pretty Funny :-)
No, I actually love my boat. It is perfect for the type of fishing I do. It has a nice large front deck and decent size back deck and fishes two people perfectly, but can accommodate 3. I just wish it had a 40hp instead of a 30hp. It is a little slow to get out of the hole with a full load and two guys. Fill the livewell and the other guy might be sitting on the front deck.

This Is Pretty Funny :-)
I have never heard of anyone buying a CAR to pull their boat with. I bought a car to drive to work so I wouldn't have to drive my truck to work. Although a car could probably pull my boat (Carolina Skiff J16 w/30 HP Tohatsu 4-Strok) I prefer to pull a boat with my truck. Neither my car or truck are as nice as your two vehicles. 1997 Honda Accord with 207,000 miles and a 1997 GMC Yukon with 165,000 miles.

Help Needed Dvd To Cd
Sounds like you need software that will allow you either record the audio that is on the DVD or software that will allow you to extract the audio from the DVD video files. Google is your friend. http://lifehacker.com/322151/rip-audio-from-a-dvd-to-mp3-with-free-dvd-mp3-ripper

How Often Do You Bilge?
My Dad had an old aluminum Grumman boat that leaked like crazy. Before we had a bilge we used to get up on plane and pull the plug to let the water run out. Probably only did this once or twice a day but it would be a fairly good amount of water. Once I started using it on my own I put a bilge in it with a switch. I would probably turn it on a few times a day.

GPS doesn't have much to do with your location. There is a GPS signal in the middle of the ocean.

Uh Oh May Have Joined The Posse
I may have been able to argue and win but I don't use left hand reels anyway so it wasn't a big deal. Are the computer sale prices set per store or are they set by the headquarters?

Uh Oh May Have Joined The Posse
At my store they only had the display model Citica and Curado. The clerk took the Citica into the back and I assume he scanned it with the hand held scanner. He told me they were not part of the 50% off all clearance tackle even though they were marked at $99.97 and $139.97. I even told him that I had heard online that a lot of the Dick's stores had these reels on clearance for around $50. He told me that only tackle was part of the 50% off clearance tackle.

Uh Oh May Have Joined The Posse
I went to my local dicks at lunch today and the sale was still going on although the citicas and curados were on sale they weren't part of the additional 50% off sale even though they were marked as a .97 sale price. I did get some tru tungsten weights for $2 per pack though.
