You can do what I did if you want a FF on a seperate battery from the trolling motor. I bought a 7 amp hour 12 volt that runs my simple Cuda 242 all night long even with the back light on with voltage to spare. I paid a whole 19.00 fun dollars for it at Ace Hardware. It weights just a couple...

Man thats always a nasty job and a painful one too usually. I always put it in the truck and parked it in the sun with a bunch of old towels under it to catch the cosmolin as it melted out. Of course that was followed by a near endless scrub down after wards. Good luck with it!

Thats really sweet! Man I still wished they made some of the down sized ultra light bait casters they made back then. I have gotten back into ultra lights agian and having a blast with them but limited to Spinning set ups. It would be great to have a bait caster that could handle 4-6 lbs test...

Ditched worthless Norton and McAfee a long time ago and wished I would have earlier. I am using Kaspersky which has been head and shoulders better in no uncertian terms. AVG would have been my second choice. Norton and McAfee is just a waste of computer hard drive space and money.

You can always do what I did on my Kayak... I went to Ace Hardware and bought one of those 12 volt 7 amh battery's like they often use for back up power to alarm systems and then wired it to my fish finder so I could just plug in. It runs my Cuda 242 all night long on a fishing trip from dusk...

Dont have one but I have done a lot of research regarding small outboards lately and on this particular one for about a year. Almost every review I read the number one complaint was noise...they are loud compared to other comparable sized motors. Additionally I have noticed that many places...

Thanks for the suggestion danMC. After seeing quiet a few disappointing reviews of the smaller Mercs, this is the next brand I started looking at before looking at several others. It looked like that one was really light weight and pretty good on fuel consumption. I was just hoping to hear...

Been looking at both of those brands as I am okay with buying Japanese made products a lot more than Chinese made ones. I have herd a good bit of good things regarding the Tohatsu. Might consider a 12 ft John instead for the extra 2ft of space and additional 80 lbs of weight capacity and...

Multiples of sadness! That's a real bummer anytime, especially at this time of the year!!! Hopefully things will work out for the better for you and that you can weather the storm. Its a tough position for one to find themselves in. Will be keeping my fingers crossed for ya tho. I found...

I am looking for 4 stroke outboard suggestions in the 2.5-3 hp rating for a 10ft aluminum Jon rated at 3 hp Max (for use in FW) and was wondering i there was a particular model that stood out among the experienced boaters here. I was originally looking at the Mercury 2.5 but after checking a...

Is it neccessary? No. Is it worth it? Yeah I think so. Allow me to explain... First off, when your out fishing it really helps to confirm what you thought and that there really are some fish where your tossing your bait. I really like to know there are fish there today and more...

I voted yes however the real truth is yes and no. Let me explain... I think to an extent that everyone is influenced to one degree or another by Pro Fishermen, some more so than others. I look to the Pros more for techniques and ideas more so than this or that bait in this weight and this...

Nice saucer sized slab Gill. Thats got to be one of my favorite types of fishing when you can locate a bunch of slabs like that!

Man a fish that size on my Kayak would have been an E-Ticket Sleigh Ride for sure. I would have still felt more like a "Bobber" than a "boater"...even in my Ocean Kayak Prowler 13!

Im not tying my own Bass Jigs like you are but I do tie my own Crappie Jigs and find it to be a much more worth while effort and considerably cost effective too. The best part is that I can tie them up in the sizes and patterns that happen to be the hot ticket at the moment. As you know, if...
