Nobody said anything about there being some math

20 hp restricted lakes
I’m no boat guy, but won’t a 20hp have more thrust than a trolling motor hanging off the sane boat? sounds like fun.

Berkley powerbait maxscent creature hawg
I just bought the Bunker Hog. I’ll probably try punching, t-rig, and use it as a jig trailer. I’ll snip off a bit if it’s a jig trailer. good luck. Those are perpetually sold-out at TW.

Way off-topic. A cooking discussion?
Perfection!

Way off-topic. A cooking discussion?
Haha. Similar story. I was also buying meat from my butcher. The lady next to me asked me how I was going to cook my purchase. I explained. She asked, “do you do all the cooking?” ”yes, I enjoy it” ”your wife cook at all?” ”my wife doesn’t cook, she experiments on me....” (and we laughed)

Dipping my toe into the pool called “ big swim-baits”
Thanks. I just put it on my wish list. I bet the rainbow color kills them at my trout stocked lakes. Thanks. I’ll get the shad color as well. do. You have a pic of one rigged up? I’m new to this.

How many of your rods have been broken because of your friends?
My truck is like a “friend”. My friend’s power windows broke my last rod. nooooooo!

What is your kayak fishing net?
All nets should be rubber. Mine is. Bare minimum, it has to be easier on the fish’s protective slime coat. next benny is that hooks don’t jam up badly.

I’m interested! Who is the vendor? Only downside is the bigger handle may hang up when they are all side by side in my kayak rod holders.

Boater's Safety Course
Imagine if automobile drivers were just handed keys like boaters? It would be mayhem. No system is perfect. But the example above me is a scooch extreme. Gun safety. Yes. Hell, I took a chainsaw safety course when I bought my tool. I get a boat, I’m buying into the safety course. The lower insurance should be “the carrot”.. now if there was a mandatory parenting course....hehe, I’m joking.

What is your kayak fishing net?
I modified an inexpensive Frabil to suit my needs. I might build another one since I found a really cool fiberglass pole. it floats and I sealed it aggressively to keep water out of the crevasses. No invasive stowaways. It tucks neatly in the bow of my Hobie. I have a trampoline style net up there. what your net kayak fisher-folks? In the process

Dipping my toe into the pool called “ big swim-baits”
New to all of this. I just ordered the Jackall Gantarel JUNIOR. I’m tired of my buddies hauling in the occasional winter toad while I’m pulling dinks while I’m stuck in my finesse stubbornness. If I even get a dink, I’m lucky on some especially brutal outings. Okay. What I ordered is a “swim bait”. what is a Glide-bait besides something I need ASAP.?

What ruins a fishing trip for you more than anything?
To be clear. Waking up to a puddle under my refrigerator will ruin fishing plans as well. d**n.

Stupid Shimano SLX question
Oh-o. Really?

Rod Floats! Do they actually float?
I need to buy ONE and see if the fit inside my tube-rod-holders. Hmmmm. Thx. Six months or so. I lost mine grabbing my paddle to head into a shallow cove to pee. I was in 45 feet water. Bummed.

How do I catch fish in Arizona
Thanks for this. I’m hitting the first lake I’ve ever fished as a teen. grown man with a kayak now!

Rod Floats! Do they actually float?
I’m a kayak fisherman. I lost a rod recently. I can figure how to leash them while they are in the rod holders. (As soon as I find a suitable clip or clamp) but while in my hands?: all bets are off. Fumbling a rod wouldn’t be unheard of. Can I float them?

Jet ski. For their diminutive size the whip up quite the wake. Impressive. but I kayak with eyes in the back of my head. wake board boats. Epic tsunami wakes. I always head nose first into one of those. But I think the waves knock crayfish out if the rocks
- I need to have my head examined!

Tournaments. Good one!

What ruins a fishing trip for you more than anything?
Some of the responses are so extreme. I took the spirit of the thread to be, “what normal event ruins...”. Not some catastrophic random event. ‘’like a gunshot injury. Yea. That would ruin my fishing.

Yes! Rain!
My tiny local lake. The water is up to the ramp!
