Ok, I have not made it out with the FL-18 Yet (I'm sick) but will get out sunday. My question is roughly how much gain do you end up using when fishing small lures 1/200th oz. to say 1/100 oz. when fishing shallow water 10-15 feet to see the jig? Its a given that the smaller the lure the more gain you will need. And is it helpfull to use normal power for these small lures? Thanks guys I can't wait. Unfortunately the water is so murky that you cannot see a foot so fishing will be slow.
We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha
motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor, wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will
want for this boat? Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke
Mariner motor) I will appreciate any help with these questions.
I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage. Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.
Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
