Seat Pedestal Cushions - Which is BEST?

I have tried two pedestal seats cushions from Cabelas that said they were hi-end, but when I use them, they are not firm enough and end up flattening out while fishing....very uncomfortable. Does anyone have any reccomendations on aftermarket pedestal seat cushions? I don't care what they cost, 8 hr...

HELP - HOW TO REPLACE A BILGE PUMP?????

First off, why in the world would they put the bilge pump under all sorts of heavy hoses and crap? It is so hard to get to, unless you are hanging from a harness from the cieling or if you really talented and can stand on your head. Anyways, my bilge pump turns on. I can hear it make noise, but no w...

Re: Trolling Motor Issues - Sometimes doesn't work

I think this is it! I am not sure what an armature is, but from looking at a parts diagram it appeas to have some gears on it which I think is probably worn down in a certain area. When fooling with it in the garage, while hitting the button, i can hear its trying to turn, then when i just barely mo...

Re: Trolling Motor Issues - Sometimes doesn't work

Is this something which I can do myself? Or do I need to take it into a service center?

I have a 80lb thrust Minn Kota trolling motor and lately it has been failing on me when I press the button on the foot pedal. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't work I pull it out of the water a few times or press the pedal up and down and stuff, and sometimes it starts to...

Seat Pedestal Extension for Tall Folk?

Does anyone know where you can buy an extension for a Swivl-eze 3/4 in king pin pedestal seat? My current one only goes up 30 inches, and it is uncomfortable. Or does anyone know of a Taller Pedestal Seat Manufacturer?

THanks,

Josh

Re: Delta boat launches near Sacramento?

Thanks. This is my first bass boat, but I have fished and launched on the delta with friends boats for years. I just haven't fished the areas towards Sacramento. I would prefer a "beginner" launch area for my first delta trip though. I have heard Wimpys is fast current, and very steep. Som...
