I have a bass tracker classic xl 2019 40th anniversary edition its 16'9 long. I also came from a kayak a nucanoe unlimted. I prefer my boat by a wide margin but miss the kayak's ability to launch in alot more places, but I woudlnt trade the ability to get up and go for anything. The classic xl cant handle rough water at all, I almost died my second time out. Im already planning my next boat, I fish big water and want a 20 foot lund pro v.

Wife and Kids and I went away for the weekend rented a cottage with a dock so I brought my boat. Wife and I managed to sneak out at 530 am for 3 hours. We got on a nice senko bite and my wife caught her first bass a LM dink but it was great. I was en fuego for about 30 minutes catching some small bass 1.5 to 2.5 pounders, but it was great as I was teaching my wife how to recognize when the fish has actually taken the senko and how to set the hook properly as she was getting alot of bites but getting to anxious with the hookset. Then it gets to be 8amish and of course the time is getting to be time to get back to the cabin as my mom was watching the kids. My wife does not know "last cast" is actually about a 30 minute time period. So then I say "Ok this is the last cast for real......" I bomb the watermelon red fleck T rigged senko to the heavens and it hits the water and no lie 2 seconds later a 3 pounder jumps out of the water about 2 feet flapping its tail as the sun is shining on it, I did't even feel him take the senko he must have hit it from below and just kept going into the air like a champ. It was like something from a movie... the fish goes back into the water I set the hook and just start laughing in amazement as it was actually the "last cast" and I say to her "This is why we fish baby" I land the fish and just laugh at him and toss him back into the water. Was an amazing moment I got to share with my wife that I will never forget. I had been in a massive slump bass fishing and had been targeting perch just to be able to catch something, this weekend I got my mojo back and am happy.

Ive used japan Lure Shop, I use my bank via pay pal to avoid the pay pal conversion fee. They gave me a nice tahnk yuou note and a free jerkbait, I plan onn buying more tatulas from them. Hey man I know you from Reddit!!!!

That's a tank

When I was like 14 bank fishing, I thought I had a massive bass. As soon as it appeared i cut the line. The hook was stuck in it's foot.

My 100ah power queen has served me well. Never close to running out of juice.

They are ALL built in China. My Power Queen battery is JUST as good as a DL that costs 3x as much

I'm going to pick up a bass tracker classic 40th anniversary edition tomorrow for many of the same reasons. I just want to be able to boot around and stand and pitch t rigs and skip docks without having to worry about falling into the water.

Nucanoe unlimited is a great choice. Comes in a 10 amd 12 foot model

Found a good sale on garmin ultras. Trying to decide between, two 10" screens or one 12" for my nucanoe unlimited Thinking of upgrading to LS maybe next year and think the extra screen just for that could be beneficial.

I think for me its just watching video's and instagram shorts. I have a NuCanoe Unlimited so its made to rig out. Im having some really cool ideas about rod storage also.

I will ask when I soeak to him later on, are you saying that as it is an aerator and bidlge pump issue it could be a "pump issue" thats effecting both the bildge and the livewell? Thanks

Spoke to a guy today who has a 2010 bass tracker 160 pro for sale, has a 40hp EFI Merc and has been kept inside when not in use. It looks to be in pristine shape. However the guy says the last time he took it out last year the bidlge pump and aerator for the livewell just cut out and he has no idea why. I have never owned a boat and am NOT handy however my son is an electrician. Is this cause for great alarm and should I run away? I did a quick search and seen it could be a simple grounding of the battery issue? He is the second owner and bought it off an old man 6 years ago. He is asking what would be 8k USD.

Thanks for the response. I fished as a kid, but am practically brand new again. I generally fish for Pike, Perch and Bass. I will check out that link, Im trying to absorb alot of info, I got a Bass U TV subscription and listen to a lot of podcasts. I used to bowhunt and am now starting to see alot of paralells with respect to understanding seasonal patterns and feeding habits etc. I will check out that link you put in your reply. I understadn things take time, Im just eager to make every outing on the water a learning experience along with enjoyment of getting out Thanks again for taking the time.

I practice pitching in my backyard. I'm in Canada but have a cousin who lives like 20 min from Lake Conroe and I'm headed there on the 28th for 10 days. Gonna be tossing alot if T rigs
