:D I like the rod wraps on my rods. I've been using the wraps used for tennis rackets (much cheaper in cost). They seem to grip better when wet. They also keep the cork better looking (would help in resale of high-end rods) I also use the reel grips. Again, better grip/feel in the wet or...

Has anyone got any experience with the recessed trays for your trolling motor foot control on a tin boat? I've been thinking of upgrading my tm and even going with a hand control to free up a little more room on the deck? What do ya think?

I like BPS over Cabelas, BPS seems to have a better fishing department atleast the one in Grapevine does. Cabelas does seem to have some better sales and clearance type item. Both store are like 3-3.5 hours away from me, but when we go see family, I make a point of going to each. I can drop a...

I put the easy view system in my G3 165. I used a 1x4 and mounted it to the deck lid through the sides. I had to cut down the ends of the 1x4 to allow the lid to close. I then screwed the mounting tabs to the 1x4 and mounted the system. I was able to put about 36 bags of plastics and about...

PC Ribbed Paddle Tail Special. Looks good for a "shakey head" presentation. I'll be happy to try 'em out for ya. LOL

I took a "volunteer" shot with our new department issued taser a few months ago when we went though our training. Since I've been a cop, I've been shot, stabbed, and torn my ACL/MCL in my knee in a pursuit, and none of that compared to the instant pain of being tased. It hurt like a BI***...

I've also got the Eagle 480 on the front of the boat. I've just got a small Garmin unit on the console for now (came with the boat.) I'm going to upgrade to the Eagle 502C combo unit this summer. I've been very impressed with the Eagle units. This is my 2nd 480 (had one on my previous boat)...

Hey JIMMYT got my jig head and worms in yesterday from the monthly drawing. I plan on using them this weekend in a tournament. They look good and I'll let you know how they work-out. Hopefully will get me some money. Thanks again.

I take "Bassin" and "Bassmaster" both have good articles and info.

I'm police officer for a small central Texas Town. I'm currently assigned as the School Resource Officer for the school District. I've been a cop for a 11 years and am also a member of our SWAT Team.

thanks for the update. I just started using an auto-inflate PFD and really like it. Keep the info coming.

I have the color GPS/sonar (eagle 502c) on the console and an eagle fishmark 480 on the bow. I use the GPS feature more than the sonar to get to a particular spot. I then can "zero" in on specifics using the sonar up front. But I fish alot of treelines and shore lines so sometime the sonar...

It's supposed to rain here in Central Texas the rest of the week. I'm not complaining though, all of our lakes around here are way below full. I guess my lil Aluminum boat will come in handy when those glass boats can't get up the rivers in a few weeks. But I would give that up for some...

What would someone recommend for a wax for my G3? I don't care about waxing for "speed" as much as I want it to look good.

Well I did find some wires at the front for a trim switch (which I will install when it comes in) so the depth finder is up and running. I will eventually have the wires run directly to the battery, by someone more technically and mechanically gifted than me. But I'm hooked up and ready to...

Well my projects never stop. I'm trying to install a depth finder on the front of my G3. I've got the wires run from the console to the front, but I'm having extreme difficulty running the wires from the console to the rear to the batteries. There is a small channel that runs just under the...

I have a six year old boy and future tournament partner. We've started already working on the congratulation speeches LOL.

Well I jumped off into it and put in the Easy View System. I had to install a set a 1"x2" wood stringers on the underneath of my deck lids, so that the system could be attached to something. Spray painted the wood to match carpet. The system was installed easily after the fabricating the wood...

I would like to see Swindle or Evers take it. Both of those guys are hillirious, and can flat out fish. You can never count out KVD

Thanks guys. I look forward to many posts and information. If I can ever help with anything let me know.
