I've never taken a boat loan. they run way long right? like 10 year financing?

5" Yamamoto Senko. #925

brand reputation and price.

I've never paid attention, but Greg Blanchard is taking his Native on/off his truck all the time. you ever watch one of his videos?. I can't remember which end he sets on the ground coming out of the truck. I think it is the tail end. and he upgrades his rudder to the bigger aftermarket one.

I love the smell of new tires in a tire shop. The other two are awesome too. Spent shotgun shells are a great memory smell.

It’s official. You all can take any topic and run wild with it. End experiment. Haha.

OP. boat, kayak or from shore. local easy to get to spot.? i simply dont do well after big storms. the turbidity is not good for me and bass fishing.

hahaha.. not the best idea. i got a Vision 110 stuck into my Patagonia sleeve and it was a total mess. i almost had both arms hooked together at one point. DUH!! now i have a small hole to patch. goggling Tenacious Tape.

this is my hook. exclusively for this use. tex rigged drop shot. easier to find locally than the Covershot. (for me)

i use 15 - 17 lb flouro. seems fine. bass hate it tho.

dang. that sounds like a nightmare. best of luck. can you call one of those (house) mold mitgation companies? i think i've seen them us an aeresol bomb. and a spray that foams up so you know you got the area covered. again. good lukc.

i woke up to seeing stars poking thru the dark morning sky. i walked out into my driveway, and saw no rain (with my untrained eyes) i went in and woke my wife up. "i'm gonna go fishing for a little bit". i took a chance and hit a remote spot. i risked downed trees and a very difficult u-turn on a tiny, narrow twisty road. whatever. i got there and a ramp i am usually see 300 yards from the water's edge was in the water!! the lake truly came up 60+ feet. i launched my kayak. super windy, the water was nasty. if i put my hand into the lake and scooped up a handful, it was full of grit. i imagine it is like us in a heavy duststorm. eating isnt a priority. i know where the trees are, becasue they are typically sticking way up. nope. all underwater. miracle, but i didnt lose my jig at all. i thru it to the trees and there were some close calls, but i got the jig back everytime. i stayed out 5 hours until i felt the wind approach "dangerous" and i went back in. happy to be out. no jerkbait, jig, dropshot, a-rig, tex-rig, lipless love at all. (rain tomorrow)

they were on my list. i am going in October. good luck!!! please keep us posted. i just sent my deposit this morning. i am going with Hooked on Adventures. relatively local guy, so i can knock on his door if he acts up. hahah..

Hypothetically. Say a guy posts up a pic of his favorite wrist watch. And next to the fancy time piece, you see a large raised, blue/black mole. You saying anything? sorry I might be suffering from cabin fever. I had a total stranger tell me my constant small cough might be cancer. I had my doc scan my lungs. She determined it was asthma. Oddly, that’s how the doc found my stepdad’s lung cancer. Same nagging cough.

If Find it hard to imagine a kayak designer drafting up a boat that can’t lay flat on a surface because the rudder stands proud of the bottom. my friend throws his Native into the back of his box van. Tail in first.

I need to streamline my creature baits like I did my worms. Get it down to two. I’m all over the place. Maybe three. The new PittBoss. I should try it. I do punch with the Palmetto Bug because it is so tough.

I have regrets. I used to let them bother me. Now, not so much. They are more “life lessons”. My regrets now? More financial. Like why did I not buy Apple Stock instead of the vintage FJ40. Or why didn’t I start saving for retirement earlier. Stuff I still “feel” on a day to day basis. Stuff I can’t say “I’m playing the hand I was dealt”. Haha. I hit on 17 way too many times. And I’m paying to catch up. But. Whatever. I’ll retire at 63 instead of 55. Wah.

I should change the title of my thread. Looks like my local big lake is full. Could make a big impact on my spring time gasoline bill. I might not have to drive so far to find big waters. thanks to Mom Nature. Such a fickle thing. I remember when the section of bay bridge failed. The headlines was. “Bay Bridge Collapse!” I suppose boring news won’t sell.

Nice. Don’t fall out while under power. That thing will leave you in a hurry. My friend has that setup and the lack of a kill switch lanyard isn’t great.

Haha. Yea I see the news and I think I’m gonna die. Thanks for asking bud. while I feel awful and sympathetic to those that are feeling the full brunt of this storm, it’s just been rain for me. More work due to damage, but at least I’m working.

Clearlake came up 6 feet!

Some. Not great. They could use 60 more feet to get to 2020 levels.

G. does that kayak have the four threaded inserts in the back for a powerpole? if so, you can use a torqueedo type..or the newport vessels version.

thanks. free rig. check!!

bellows gills? man, i am total goose-egging that one. i thought it looked so good on a drop shot. the bass however, felt otherwise.
