  1. always seen it as gycb
  2. should have gone to boaters world. costa's for 100! JK. i think the revo deal with glasses sounds pretty d**n good.
  3. I met up with Dan (member here) this morning for a Potomac trip. We fished the grass early and landed four. Two on jigs and two on top water. As the bite ended we decided to change spots. Unfortunately I could not trim my motor back into the water. Never had this problem before! It would trim up but not down. I attempted to use the manual release but had no luck. Very difficult to do that while on the water and not being able to see the screw. Long story short, I spent at least an hour in the water trying to fix it. I eventually gave up and decided to use the trolling motor and attempt to get back to pohick. After about 40 minutes and making little progress I called a tow company and was quoted $625 for a mile or so tow!!!!!!!!! Back to the trolling motor we went. A few minutes later I called my mechanic and he walked me through a few steps and the motor was up (trimmed down) and running. I switched the bad relay with the good one. The part will run around $20 which is a little better than $625! So far quite an embarrassing day to have a new friend on your boat. We decided to fish a little longer to see if we could salvage the day. 7 fish later we had a 3.4 lbs fish (picture of Dan below) and my new pb of 09, 5.6 lbs (picture below). I would say we saved the day quite well!
  4. i love them too. I ordered twice this week...
  5. Anyone interested in a morning trip tomorrow???
  6. Hey how's it going? I am looking for a fishing partner for the Potomac (launch out of Pohick). I am aiming to go a few mornings this week. Anyone interested???
  7. i have a few bags of rage shads that were packed w/o the extra packaging and they SUCK!!! The action is greatly compromised in my opinion. The difference is night and day!
  8. I'll definitely give you an invite on my boat. Are you free at all during the week???
  9. got you!!!
  10. I was in the same boat as you until a few weeks ago. It's all confidence!!! I crush the fish with them now.
  11. What lures do you guys use for fishing thick weeds??? I have frogs, rage shads and spinners covered. What else??? I am really struggling at high tide in the weeds (my top water does not work, as well). Any suggestions???
  12. can you use dogs for bait?????
  13. I just upgraded my trolling motor. I now have a MK Maxium 70lbs thrust with a standard prop. It does extremely well in the thickest of weeds. What lbs thrust is your motor???
  14. I think you would be fine in the creeks. I see tons of jon boats in Pohick bay. Check weather reports and you will be fine. Good luck
  15. i just got a cooks tackle to go system for my boat. it's amazing. Highly recommended.
  16. i like net baits and rage tails. they both are very durable in my opinion.
  17. thanks guys! i have caught more fish in the last two months on the boat than I did all of last year.
  18. thanks man. are we going monday?
  19. Here are a few pics from this morning. A buddy and I had a great bite this morning. Top water action was insane. I knew it was gonna be a great day when I landed a 3.5lb on my first cast! In about three hours we landed 13 with our best five going a little less than 18lbs.
  20. wasn't quite the first response i wanted but thanks for the info.
  21. Took me a month but here are some pics of my new baby...86' ranger 370v with a 93' Johnson Faststrike 150 hp!!!
