    Transom Saver

    When you need a new transom saver check out Motor Mate. I have been using it on my 115hp Optimax and it is a superior product.

    New Concern

    I pulled the seats out of my 2007 Ranger 170VS last night and the fiberglass was blistered behind the seats. :(

    May be getting a boat next year

    I am still fishing club tournaments out of a 1984 Tournament TX and it doesn't leak a drop. I fished a tournament last year out of a 175TXW and liked it a lot. I would not hesitate to buy one if I didn't have plans to buy a Nitro Z6 next spring.

    Power Pole or Talon an a Z-6

    Daddy Don, does the Talon drag in the water much when you take off?

    Which Maxxum Trolling Motor

    Whichever one you get make sure you get the Maximizer. You will get a lot better battery life and the infinitely variable speed control is a plus. I have the Maxxum 55 on my old Bass Tracker Tournament TX and, if I could find room for another battery, I would go to the 70.

    Saw something at Ranger in Flippin, that I thought was surprising

    The City of Tallahassee operated on Monday as if it was a normal day.

    eyeglass wearers and sunglasses

    I tried to get Costa Del Mars or something similar but was told by two different opticians that they couldn't make them with my prescription due to the curvature of the lens. I bought a pair of Carerra precription polarized sunglasses and have been thrilled with them.

    Life jacket ?

    Let me suggest that, if you can, don't buy a rearming kit online. You might get one like I did that had been sitting on a shelf for about three years.

    My first impressions of seeing a 2010 Z7

    Sometimes there are advantages to being 5'8". :D

    So What Did Santa Bring You?

    "Ashame about your cousin. Did they know what caused the accident? My condolences." We haven't heard anything about the cause of the crash, but the weather was a bit threatening when he took off. His father, also a pilot, tried to get him to wait until later.

    So What Did Santa Bring You?

    I got a new drill, a Bass Pro Gift Card, and my wife had someone else paint the house so I don't have to cut into my fishing time to do it. Best Christmas present I ever got. On a down note, though, I just got word that one of my cousins died in a plane crash this afternoon. He was flying...

    What's On Your Wish List??????

    I told my wife that the only thing I needed was the time to enjoy what I already have, so she went out and hired someone else to paint the house so I don't have to take up precious fishing time doing it. That's why we have been married almost 39 years.

    How many of you have Save Phace Mask?

    I have the same red mask as you. Of course I look goofy running down the lake with or without it. For cold weather I use a full face motorcycle helmet.

    new depth finder

    I have a 788Ci at the console of my Tracker and a 778C at the bow. I would endorse either unit. The 788Ci has an internal GPS receiver. If you network the two together as I have done you will be able to see waypoints you have input on the 788 on the 778. The waypoints will be displayed...

    No Nativity Scene in Washington DC for Christmas

    Reminds me of the live nativity scene at New Mt. Zion Baptist Church across from my Aunt Mary's farm in Kentucky. There were three guys dressed up as firemen. Each of them was carrying a stack of books. I asked Brother Lucas to explain that to me and he said that it was straight out of the...

    New 4.700 Software for Humminbird Units!

    Thank goodness they got those Bulgarian fonts corrected. :rolleyes:

    Is this a large bag?

    I have one about that size and I catch a lot of teasing about it from other guys in the club when I am a non-boater.

    HELP - I need a new prop!

    I have a 17' Tournament TX with a new 50 hp 2 stroke Mercury. I put a four blade, stainless Trophy Sport prop on it. It is 10 5/8 X 12. I run a little more than 32 with me and a full load of gear. This is at about 5700 rpms. Hole shot is great. . . well, as great as you're going to get...

    BIG DECISION..Fishfinder

    "If you don't want to spend the $$ for the SI unit, then the 788CI is perfect and around $650. Basically the same unit but no Side Imaging." I just bought this unit at Walmart online for $588. Combined with a Navionics card it is a fabulous tool. Humminbird sells a kit fo about $100 that...
