Some people call it a Kaiser blade. I like to call it a sling blade. mmmhhhmm.

WOW! That is a great looking boat. I can't wait to see more pictures when you get it home!

So far... (OCD) I have found that I like to use the short snack size ziplock baggies to hold lures and dodgers. If I find a combo that works well together I just bag them up together and put them in a little plastic tool box. I find it easy to sort through them when I am in a hurry to find the...

When I started researching kokanee I understood the general rule to be two and half times the length of your dodger. I have seen articles where they had them as long as 43 inches (below). MY general rule... Never measure (especially in front of another fisherman). I like to start out a new...

And those brackets are kinda spendy... Cool. But spendy. Holes are way cheaper :)

Do you mean that black tape that has the no slip sanded texture?

SuperD- The new boat will have a spray down right next to where I am thinking of adding the board on the rear of the boat. I like the idea of tapping into it and having its own water but I will probably test it out with just the existing hose at first. Give it a few runs then tweak it. I am...

That's one I haven't seen yet. I like that it has a drain to get the gunk off your boat. I have seen some decent boards but not many that have the gunk hose.

I took Friday off and drove to the Portland show from Bellingham. It took a while to get there but wasn't terrible. I made it through the snow around 1pm. I picked up a couple rods, a couple reels and met with tons of venders. I think I found someone to build me the cleaning table I want to...

Pictures of the micro hoochies. Packaged ones are the ones I just bought. The open ones are made on the boat or by my fishing buddy.

i will shoot some picks of the ones i just bought and if i can find some from last year i will take some pics of them too.. (in the morning)

The Fisherman's Marine and Outdoor booth in Portland had a bunch of the JJ rods on sale. Red or White for 49.99. I have two white ones already so I picked up two in red. I also picked up a couple cold water reels. I use one on a Fetha Styx rod I have and really really like them together.

I used them a lot last summer. The micros work well when big presentations aren't getting hit. I made my own with some glow beads on either side. I just picked up some at the Portland show from Crystal Basin Tackle. They have pre tied and complete micros spinners. I am partial to the pink or the...

Well, looks like I am going to the Sportsman show tomorrow morning... It wasn't that hard to talk myself into I guess. Looks like that price per pound is subject to change (rapidly)...

The dealer responded to an e-mail saying it had to be a Garmin. I think that was the lazy answer and not the correct one. I may venture to the Sportsman show in Portland this weekend and talk to someone that knows electronics better. Can't decide if it is worth a 4 hour drive though. I guess I...

Dfly, Thanks for the response. I would like the option of using the chart plotter to track routes. I fish a lot of the same areas over and over. I have an HDS-5 now but was going to let it go with the boat when it gets traded in. I can't say I am overly excited about it. I am eyeballing the...

So my brain is over thinking electronics today. I am going to put my one year old Humminbird 1198si on the new boat. When we discussed putting the bow trolling motor on I specified the I-Pilot LINK. I know it will work with the 1198 no problem. The thing that I am stuck on is whether the TR-1...

I like the bottom one too. I would build both just so I didn't regret it later...

Has anyone seen or used on of the "Uncle Norm" fins for the main and/or trolling motor? I added a link at the bottom. There is a short youtube video as well on the site. Looks kind of interesting. I am thinking it would have some of the basic benefits of the Mac prop guard but maybe assist with...

"De-rigging" the old boat today... It is actually a sad process. Lot's of good trips in this boat. She has been very forgiving during the learning process and always got me home. Not to mention (ok I will) she has produced tons of limits of Kokanee and salmon for me and my fishing buddy. Feels...
