I know your situation well. Went from the slowest to the fastest. Might be throttling back to a 520 though since winning the co-havasu event and need to do something with the cert. If not it might be a good option for you to buy a cert to get into a new ranger for less. FWIW I purchased my 21xhp us...

Hello Ben, I recently moved to Texas. Do you insure boats here, or are you strictly in California? If your reach doesn't extend this far, do you have any recommendations for companies/agents/underwriters back here? FWIW, I am currently insured through State Farm but looking to change

Hey Joe, you should join the Ranger Bass Boat Owners group on Facebook (if you haven't already) and ask your question there. Lots of folks there are willing to help you out. Just be sure to give as many details as possible, you should get some good answers.

hey Travis, you might add that if you buy the Navionics + Regions card, it comes with free updates for the first year. Since I moved to Texas, and since my current Navionics + card is over two years old and has never been updated, I bought the Navionics + South Region card. Should be here next Tuesday

Here's some more reports, from the lake report pages of WesternBass:

http://www.westernbass.com/lake/moses

Another lake worth checking out is Potholes Reservoir, almost within spitting distance of Moses Lake. At one time, it held a good population of walleye, don't know if that's still the case.

Two more names to consider: Bobby Barrack and Rich Tauber

Another shop I've seen mentioned a lot on here is Bragg's Marine in Anderson. I have never used them, but Gary Dobyns and others swear by them.

B&W Resort in Isleton has cabins, also a 2 lane boat ramp. About 30 miles/45 minutes by road from Russo's, a lot less if you launch there and head over to Russo's in the boat.
