Re: Hirz bay launch-Shasta

Thanks for the pictures and information. That’s funny one person said they launched at Hirz bay launch two days ago. We are at a group campsite nearby that is open. I’ll find somewhere to launch the Basscat. Just hopefully not all the way back to bridge bay.

Hirz bay launch-Shasta

Anyone know what’s up with the Hirz bay ramp? It shows as being closed and I have a camping trip coming up next month in that area. Trying to figure out what to do. Thanks!

Re: Miinn Kota Ultrex installation?

Ultrex calls for a larger circuit breaker also. It’s an easy job but it takes a little time. You also have the gps puck to mount and power up. Pretty straight forward.

Re: Have you called Ranger Boats lately?

That’s too bad. I would expect more from a top of the line boat company.
One of the reasons I went with Basscat. They are very easy to reach out to. Online and on the phone, they answer questions. Even for guys like me with a 14 year old boat.

Re: Mid size swimbait rods

Definitely don’t need a dedicated swimbait rod for 3/8 oz heads. Lots of rods will work for this and there will be a lot of person preference involved. What is your current jig rod?

Re: Boat trailer suspension

I replaced mine and it helped quiet everything down. My bushings had fallen apart. The bolts that hold it all on are pretty heavy duty and difficult to remove. Definitely need a breaker bar and impact drill. Or you could take it to a trailer shop and have them dial it in.

I've had nothing but problems with my point one on my bass cat. Its been in three (3) different spots and has never worked the way it should. Five feet from anything electronic as they suggest is pretty difficult to do on a bass boat. Recently bought a new antenna to try to see if mine was defective.
