Lithium battery for TM?

Hello Westernbass, Now that Lithium battery prices are coming down, I've been doing some more research. I'd be using 36V system for Ultrex for 21 ft Triton bass boat. Some companies list their 12v 100 Ah battery, but also have one that says Trolling Motor on it, or is labeled as for Trolling Motors....

Re: Does it get any Better!!!!!

that is great! I am trying to do that with my nearly-4 year old boy. I was fishing from shore with a drop shot and got a bite while he was standing right next to me. I set the hook and put the rod in his hand (with one of mine on it just in case) and let him bring it in. It jumped 4 times before I l...

more "reliable"?

I thank all for the feedback on 4-strokes vs. 2-strokes! Lots of great opinions. I have heard the 4-strokes are like auto engines, and as such are more reliable and less prone to breaking down. any thoughts? I wonder because I have some buddies who used to ride motorcycles alot tell me about this is...

why so few 4-strokes on bass boats?

Why do you think there are so few 4-stroke outboards out there? I have heard about the problems with the Verado. But what about the Honda or the Yamaha?

Re: Launch fees at markeley cove??

Our club launched there yesterday (sunday the 10th). Launch fee was $15. There are actually 2 docks there, not too long, about 4 boat lengths. When cold, watch out, that metal grate that connects the dock to the launch ramp is really slippery!! with good drivers, you can launch 3 at a time, but 2 is...

Re: Footware for the rain

one thing to remember about feet getting wet and cold is....the rain getting your pants wet. If the bottom of your pants get wet, then they can wick onto your socks (gravity, plus they are right next to each other), then this wetness drains down into your boots or shoes. You may have waterproof boot...

Saw a few ponds on the maps, like Green Valley Lake Park (just north of this intersection). I was looking for a pond or two to fish, either from shore or from a float tube. Anyone familiar ...

Float tubes and kick boats......where to go?

for those who like to float tube or Kick boat for bass, where do you like to go? I'm looking for moderate but safe access, with low boat traffic. I don't mind catching just 1-2 pounders to do it. I have heard Rancho Seco is good. I am looking for places in the Delta where there is less big boat traf...

Re: kaenon kore sunglasses help

I looked at all the different tints, and decided on the yellow. this allows maximum light penetration while still being polarized. Note that these glasses give 100% protection of UV rays. so the only differences are how much visible light you want or can tolerate, and how they look on you. (Remember...

Good input! thanks! Yeah, those fish that swim up from deep we can't help. all you can do is keep tight lines!! that is an interesting point....if a suspended fish 30+ feet deep comes up to nail a spook, then maybe it doesn't get bent the way we can. I think the key is....the fish is swimming up. we...
