Re: Still have questions about the California Boater Card?

It is definitely silly business, these cards. I am due at the end 2024. But I took advice from another old guy and tried the thing online. I used the Boat US course, it was $27. While sipping bourbon in my lazy boy, I took the course, did the quizzes then passed the final test in one evening. My lit...

Re: St Croix Bass X Swimbait Rod- Like New!

Rob, this sounds pretty good. I am outfitting newer high school anglers. This could be a good rod for one of them. I live 43 minutes from Browns Ravine. Let me know.

Re: FLW HIGH SCHOOL EVENT - Clear Lake

I met one of your boat captains at New Melones last year and heard about your shortage of boaters. Anyway, I will be ...

This is a very nice boat and you get a lot for your money. But the biggest bonus is you can get it from a real boat dealer. I got mine from a place that knew nothing about Phoenix or boats in general.. Get yours right here.

Re: High School Student Anglers need your Support and Help

This is terrible news Phil. A lot of the best high school sticks come from the Delta schools. Our school treats the team well but we never tried to qualify as a sport. We are a club. They allow us the use of a classroom for after school rod building and repair-but they drew the line at melting lead ...

Mercury Trophy Plus Prop 24P SOLD

This was my spare for over 15 years and was almost never used. I have a different spare now so this one is more than I need. My 200 Pro XP is too much for it. I believe it would work best on a 150 or maybe 175. Price includes the thrust washer unique to this prop. $200.
