Questions About Deep Cranking
i agree. i use a low ratio Revo as well. i think its the constant rod undulation of a big crank swinging back and forth that also wears me out. plus i have to fight constantly to keep my kayak in position. a big deep crank moves me.

Adding length to power cable
i wish fish finders had shorter transducer cables. i have 25 feet or so wadded up and tucked into my kayak. i could get by with 5 feet. the clump will occasionally fall loose and jam up my storage area. power? i run my battery nearby. 2 feet away.

just got off phone with Travel Advice nurse. traveling sounds scary coming from her.
noise cancelling headphones changed the game for me. i just go to my happy place..last time it was binge watching two seasons of the Mandalorian. flights are cool..the anticipation for me is a drug.

treble hooks with barbs on outside. "outbarbs?"
i dont know how they affect fish mouths, but they are night/day difference in ease of untangling from my fishing line. you can almost shake the line out of the hook. inside barbs, not so much. i kinda love them.

Questions About Deep Cranking
6-12 feet is medium depth for me. i use 12 to 14lb flouro and i do okay. got my 2nd place PB on a giant Megabass crankbait in the most ridiculous color ever. it was lime green. the big Strike King crank bait is exhausting to me. it spins me and my kayak around the it wears out my rod elbow holding the rod.

i think Airports are the first peek to the city you are about to step foot into. the airport at Lima..it was "oh-o". yup. pandamonium. the cab ride was like Death Race 2000. without the hot chick co-driver and machine guns.

Parking And Charging A Boat At An Apartment Complex
i think i would ask the apartment manager..not a forum full of bass anglers if its up to me, i would give you access to the apartment downstairs..Mrs. Bixby's place. 1B. just unplug her TV and run your cord there.

What techniques/baits shine with a Curado K 200?
it is a multi-tasker. i kinda feel at this point, it is more beneficial to choose the line you want to match to a series of techiques more.

i think if the entire planet traveled and got to peek at each other cultures we would be way ahead of the game. and vaccines are time proven. take polio for example. we can thank a scientist. my title was sarcasm. i dont scare easy..unless it;s bigfoot or something.

i travel a lot (before pandemic). going to Brazil in october. i am fairly well protected with vaccines. the Travel nurse was delightful, right up until she started talking about rabies. what the heck? there is a human vaccines now. pills or injections. i declined for now. Malaria. just a series of pills. she said it isnt the old pill that gave people mental issues..she said it is new and can only cause some GI issues if you dont take with food. okay. other than one more vaccine, i am going in with some anti biotics - just in case. i am pretty sure i wont run across any rabid bats..or monkeys. geesh...world travel is fun, until it isnt. hahahha

What do you throw when bait fish are jumping?
a popper. i feel i got to make some racket to draw more attention to my bait. i'm not good enough to walk the dog quickly, but my seizure like popper moves seem to work.
