I thought the performance was so good that's why I wanted to give it a review for more people to see. After having this, Im not sure why motor manufactures don't have more of something like this...
Hello all, I wanted to pass along my review on the Stingray hydrofoil stabilzer. I had seen these on some boats and it cought my attention, wondering if this after market product was good? I have a...
The v bottom handles rough water great, but I've heard they get blown around really bad? Is this true with aluminum v bottoms, a glass v bottom I would think would be very solid. Just curious
Hey Dave hope all is well, getting ready to fish Ky lake next week. Hopefully I will run into you out on the lake!
Well I seen this post and couldn't pass up giving my opinion due to the fact I have a Tracker 175 txw and fish Ky lake 7 days, last week of April every year now for the last 10 years. Ky lake is one...
US Reel has a huge spool
What kind of hook do you use?
Thanks for the replies. I really have no problem with my boat a 175 pro team tracker with a 50 2 stoke. I just thought it could ad an advantage in rough water and stability and plane out sooner? I'm...
Has anybody ever added one of these to their motor??? If so thoughts???
I have tried many fluro and have had a lot of break offs. However I use p line 100 % fluro and its very sensitive and Ive only ever lost 1 fish on it. With that said there was a good point in the...
I read the article, has some good info. On the crankin stick I was experimenting with a soft rod compared to a spinning rod to give the worm action, and I set the hook like a spinning rod just...
I've been experimenting with this technique and does anybody fish this on baitcasting gear? I prefer to use casting equip and have been using a 7 ft crankin srick throwing a 1/4 oz jog head on 12lb...
I would keep them in the house, but I doubt it will hurt them.
Thnx for the help!

Shimano is making a bad mistake if all this is true
I may check out the Clarus, thanks
I bought the tourney special rod a few years ago for like $40 and it has been a great rod for the price! I thought about buying another BPS rod this year, anybody have any pros or cons with their...
Okay thanks for the insight, if they had such a good product why go and mess with it? But who knows that earthquake could be the reasoning.
Whats the deal with the 2012 curado reels? Their priced cheaper and I think their made in Malaysia? Has this reputable reel outsourced and lost its quality? I was going to buy 2 more this year but...
I heard it took 27 lbs! to win it this last weekend? Did anybody fish it?
BPS Tourney Special......good rod!
My buddy took this pic for this guy who caught this crappie at Geist Res. in Sep 2010, just on the outskirts of Indy, he then emailed the pic to the guy and I found this on a website. Although he...

Anyone ever used it? I bought some and going to try it for flipping, but not sure about it??
I would buy a Shimano rod, waranty is worth it alone. However BPS makes great rods for the money and I have several and never had a problem. The Skeet Reese rods are junk imo, had one snap while...
This is a topic Ive often wondered mysef. The last sveral years ive got tons of 14 7/8 fish. When reeling them in you would swear its a keeper! However KY lake has had good spawns, but last year I...
Has anybody ever used the Power Pro Braid in the new venom red color? Just curious??
Yes the Indy show is huge and is great for cabin fever! However it would be great if Dave would come back and do some of the seminars....hint hint. They used to have tons of great speakers there,...
I love to fish with braid, however most the waters I fish are stained to slightly muddy and the color most common with braided lines are moss green. The major problem is I cant line watch, its very...
The quality isn't there any more, that's why Boyd Ducket told them if they were going to change the rod he didn't want his name on it. Ive heard they used to make a good rod, then outsourced it...
Dynamite
Well sounds like I'll keep chuckin and windin the red pattern in the spring and let the fish tell me if they want them or not. I've experienced allot with colors and I dont really think it matters...
Why is there such an emphasis on throwing red/crawfish colored crankbaits/traps and jerkbaits in the spring? Is that the early color of crayfish at that time? Woudn't bass be more concerned with...
I wanted to say thanks to all months ago when I was shopping for a new reel. I went with the Shimano Curado and all I can say is wow! I cant say how impressed I am with this real, I saved up some...
That time of year If I were fishing for blue gills I would be bobber fishing or throwing beetlespins up to the bank. You can catch fish in either Blood River or Jonathons Creek or just about...
Kayak, that could be a problem when setting the hook! You need the leverage set it hard, i've broken 2 rods setting the hook before. Also braid is awsome, however its hard to line watch with most...
Thanks for the help guys
