    Power Pole

    I'm thinking of ways to put a home built power pole on my Jon. I have a motor from a small motorized movie screen. It's a up and dowm motor. The problem is what can I use for a pole or some sort to dig into the ground when power is applied. Any open suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Bullet weights

    I was just wondering what you guys do as far as bullet weights. When do you peg it, when don't you. Do you match the color of the weight to your plastic or mismatch. I personally peg in heavy cover and not in open water. Also the color combos I have been experimenting with. What do you guys do?

    I took my son fishing for only the third time. He is only 3 1/2 years old. I would set the hook on some sunnies and let him reel them in. Well he decided he wanted to do it on his own. Sure enough the next cast he saw the bobber go under, yanked back, set the hook and reeled it in all by...
