    My guess is the lure will make the difference. Not many thousand dollar bills in my tackle box. Maybe some boater bucks. I do have some salt water striper lures that have bin tested and approved buy 20 pound fish. Luck not skill was involved that day at Beach Haven NJ. Lew

    Lake Yellowstone storms

    The wind usually starts to pick up in the afternoon. I go fishing early and come in when it starts up. if you wait to long to get one more fish it could be a longer ride in.

    Moving to Colorado

    If you can, run your boat at the highest elevation you will be using boat. Get a WOT rpm. From that you can get an idea for a prop. Also see how it runs. You may not need to change the jets. If you change jets you will have to change them back for sea level again.Going up in elevation just makes...

    A cautionary tale, overboard and boarding ladder.

    I have picked out a ladder then looked at the price and though that is too expensive. It took less than a half a second to change my mind. That is CHEAP. Lew

    A cautionary tale, overboard and boarding ladder.

    Long story short. Trim tabs didn't work and 115 hp honda cover is slippery if it is well waxed. No hand points of purchase. 35 hp Honda works very well with a permatrim. I am not sure if I can still swim. Some years ago (5) several miles was not a problem. I don't think I like the idea of a...
