Lol let the pros and sponsored people run the motors for a year to see what kind of bugs and problems arise. Then make a decision on whether or not to get one.

Re: question on u - 40 cork seal

I use U-40 on all my cork. Keeps the handles from breaking down. I seal the cork immediately when it’s new. The cork is easily cleaned once it’s sealed with U-40. Only downfall is it minimally changes the color of the cork and minimally changes the feel. I recommend it.

Sea Lions have evolved since they spend more time in the delta water system. They definitely target black bass when they can. I’ve seen them go up shallow on berms/spawning flats and chase bass. I’ve seen them catch bass and and bring them out from under mats and ive seen them under docks. They have...

Re: Unprecedented Clear Lake Fish Die-Off: Dead fish islands about the size of three football fields.

Clearlake is getting destroyed by all the pelleting. It's obvious. I don't see why powers that be can't see that they are destroying the ecosystem. Ive never seen it like this in the 40 plus years I've been going up to Clearlake since I was a kid. If they don't stop the pelleting, they will ruin the...

Dobyns champ 735c is an awesome frog rod that would double up for a jig rod. Or the extreme 745c if you are looking more as a jig rod that can work for frogs. Both have a little tip which you need for both applications.
