Does anyone know which company makes them. Are they good reels?

bustout

If you watch eBay . Reels can be had for far less than some stores. Revos stx's were going for less than $100 for 7to 1 new in box. Other Brands were close. BUT watch for scams. I would stick with Tackle Warehouse catch one of their sales and be sure to get their MIL. discount if you were in the se...

Hi All,
Looking to get a new baitcaster. My last one was the old green curado and it was great so I was assuming to buy a new curado. The curado is $149. I was hoping to get something a little lighter, can anyone recommend one?

thanks in advance

Hi Everyone, I recently purchased a 2006 Ranger boat where the trailer tires had extreme wear on the inside tread. I went to replace tires as tread was starting to show on the inside....all other tread was 70-90% still there. When the new tires were installed (same size), they rubbed on the inside f...

Anyone been to McClure and can tell about water clarity, temp how the bite is? Thinking either camanche oe mcclure ...what is fishing better right now

bustout

Anyone launch at both of these places? Which is better? I have launched out of tiki many times and the thing to watch is the ramp ends and can be an issue at low tide. Was wondering if turner cut launch was any better also, is this section closed? I wanted to fish the mildred area thanks in advance

Hello everyone,
I have a hook3 lowrance connected to a universal minnkota transducer and it often loses track of the bottom. Most times it eventually comes back but it is not acceptable. Is there a fix or is the fishfinder defective?

bustout

Hook 5 and Hook 3

Is it the same make/model axle that you replaced? What problems have you had? bearings? I just bought a 2006 w/ single axle (6 lug) and just changed over to vortex grease hubs (from oil bath). It seems that Ranger has had many problems with oil bath hubs from 2005 to 2014. New ones are back to greas...

bustout

Did you do any good? Any tips? I heard that the river arm is very muddy whereas the rest of the lake is pretty clear. Also, it has risen about 20ft in the last 2 weeks. Shall I focus deep on existing structures or fish newly flooded areas

thanks in advance

bustout

It is also cable steered

bustout

The ultrex has adjustable pedal tension/resistance to your preference

bustout

ditto on the Ultrex. Its the best trolling motor I have ever had. Best of both worlds...power assisted cable control and the ability to control with remote. Spot lock and jog (move over x feet at the touch of a button) features are amazing. Also it can link with fish finders charting (works with cer...

Received new vortex hub from ranger and it has a diiferent diameter cap. The hub seems to be smaller too. Part #'s are different. Called around and it seems that there are 3 generations of vortex hubs and i may have 2 on my single axle trailer. What sucks is that i will probably need different beari...

Hi Everyone,
I am looking for a coupler lock which would replace the non locking pin that was supplied with my trailer. Anyone able to find a locking pin for this?

A link to a picture for my style of coupler is below:

Mike,
Did you have a 1 piece or 2 piece disc brake assy. ?
Did you have to replace the spindle too? Ranger said I had to as the spindle/grease seal wont work on the oil version

thanks

bustout

I have a 2006 Ranger trailer with oil hubs. Ranger said they don't carry any oil hub replacement parts and are recommending me to change over to grease when my maintenance interval is up. They also said I have to change out the hub and spindle with a grease version. Some trailer places say you can j...

My concern is can you control without always having to look at the dial on top of the motor? With cable, I can memorize my foot position and this is how I know which direction it will go. Another way to explain this is when you fully push down on the toe of the pedal, the steering is pointing the fu...

bustout

Anyone have an ultrex? How is the steering compared to a cable control?

bustout

Sorry i meant the ultrex

bustout

wanted to get feedback on this trolling motor. I never liked the motorized control and they say this one controls like cable but pedal movement is much easier to move. Also, has many GPS/control features.

Thanks...wanted to do some research before I went out and buy one

Anyone know of a good marine canvas shop near stockton? My boat cover needs to be replaced as it is worn and leaks.

That road to Tiki has always been like that. In the last 20 years or so, I remember once where they re-paved the road but it was only smooth for about 1 season. Same goes for hwy 4 from stockton to inland drive....they have re-paved it a few times over the last decade or so and it doesn't last long....

Is mcclure open? What are launch ramp conditions?

Hi Everyone,
I have a friend in town from ORE and he wants to go bass fishing. I haven't been out this year yet. With the recent rains, would the delta or melones be our best option? Just looking to fun fish, which place has best chance to catch fish, qty. over quality. thanks in advance

which is best for towing a tandem axle boat trailer?

can you run bias on 1 axle and radial on the other?

bustout

Anyone use bedliner coating for the bottom interior of the boat in place of carpet or marine vinyl flooring ?

Aside from the black color, looks durable.

any one know of problems going this route?

I have seen it in bare aluminum boats, but how about on wood floor of an aluminum boat?

I use 2 basic colors, junebug and watermelon in all my plastics. I use both all day and a catch fish....most days 1 works better than the other.....I probably use junebug 70% of the time since I fish dawn to noon or 3pm to dusk as there is some darkness in sun up or sun down.

bustout

Great news if they are still in business....thanks for the update to all

I was told this by Outdoor Sportsman in Stockton. They had a clearance/closeout on keeper/wrights worms and that is what they told me

Found out that they are going out of business. Anyone know of a similar make worm? I use their 4" and 6" strait tail, especially in the original green weenie and purple ghost colors

Looking to find an alternate brand...

it used to be unsafe....I had my trailer tire AND spare punchured w/ a knife one time. This was several years ago. I tried to go last year but it didnt open until 8am and the cost was $15. I won't be going there anymore as a result. If you go there, be careful as the ramp ends.....at low tide can be...
