I'll be there. Hoping to have a true firetiger CG made. I will also take this time to address all lure makers out there:

Currect way to do a firetiger blade (colors do not blur when in motion):

I'll either be there Friday afternoon alone or Saturday afternoon with my 3 1/2 year old son (if you see a guy that looks like my avatar with a kid that won't leave the trout pond that's me). My appoligies go out to the all the employees that have to work those hours. If it helps I'll be spending way too much money on stuff I don't need. laugh

I use a lot of the size 5 mepps for pike, and the mepps outfishes other brands by a good margin. Maybe it's the way the lure is made or maybe it's the color. Or maybe I'm superstitious, but just paint them that way for me.

Mepps outfish other spinners because they are awesome. Those #5 Aglias run tight and vibrate and catch everything that swims. If you could get that same vibration out of a double 10 you would have a winner.

I have always looked at a color like firetiger as thought that it was for dirty water and fish really just see a flash and feel the vibration. That's all, just my opinion, I hope you get them the way you want them and stick a few big girls this summer!

I stopped by the store last night and talked with Matt Johnson for a while. There is going to be a TON of stuff on sale this weekend, including a bunch of augers and ice gear as well as all the open water stuff you'd expect. Anyone looking to cash in on some great deals should stop by there this weekend!!

    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
