Got a new boat a few weeks ago (some of you might've seen the thread) and it has been sitting in a shop building for the past 25 or so years. The motor on the back is an old Merc 110 (9.8hp) and is in pretty nice condition so i want to use it this year or until i can find a console steer 25. I...

First off HAPPY EASTER everybody! The other day my fiance and I were talking and she mentioned that her grandpa told her that he had an old boat in his shop and if I wanted it I could take it. He didn't tell her anything about it so I was a little reluctant and didn't get my hopes up because I...

Alright guys here we go... last sunday my fiance's grandpa gave me his old Fisher Marine boat for free because he heard that i like to mess around with boats (first time this hobby has EVER saved me money!). The boat is rated up to a 25hp but right now it has an old merc 110 (9.8hp) in prestine...

My Grandparents live about 10 miles south of me and my area is surrounded by farm country. My whole life I have fished the ditches and channelized creeks and have caught everything from 4 foot gar, to eating sized cats, and 6-7 lb bass. When i was younger I always wished I had a small boat to...

I guess the weather and water changes have really mixed up the field because I would've never expected a majority of the top Pro's being far down in the field! Figured I would post this up for anyone curious... https://www.wired2fish.com/Poche-Leads-Classic-by-an-Ounce-WhatsUp6437

So who all has heard of it and what's your opinions on it? Personally, I'm excited and I think it's a great addition to the sport of fishing! I found it thru Wired2fish and you can sign up for online pay per view for 2.99 but I read somewhere it will be on the Outdoor Channel later this year...

As most of you know i was one of the proud winners of a Rick Clunn Signature Series rod by Wright&Mcgill put on by Wired2fish. I figured since this is a fairly new rod and most people don't have alot of experience with W&M products, i would provide a review over the rod. It took about a week...

Long story short i got three trolling motors for free... One is really too old to mess with, the other was a 90's model minn kota im guessing and i ran it over with my boat trailer (i do stupid things sometimes), and one was pretty new minn kota, just a few years old. Well as you probably...

My fiance and i recently got engaged and we were going thru some local flea markets for wedding decorations and i came across these old lures in two different markets, both within a mile or two of my house. I talked to the owner of one of the flea markets and apparently the guy owns a booth at...

Ok i have finally broken down and decided to get an opinion or two on here. For the past year i have been designing floatation pods for my transom and i cant decide to go thru the hassle of building them or not. Since my boat is so narrow (1432) i have really had to work with the pod width, but...

I have an idea for a lure that I want to try to make and I need to find the type of wire like they use on spinnerbaits and stuff like that. I'm thinking maybe some sort of stainless steel picture frame wire but thicker. The lure will be a crank/inline spinner hybrid and the wire will be...

Everytime i go fishing i always seem to go to the same lures in the same color... old habit i guess. A lot of the time its no big deal and i can catch a few fish but when the bite gets tough or im fishing unfamiliar waters im lost and usually go home empty handed. What are some of the basics...

Well i finally had the free time to make my first pizza on my smoker today... i never had made a pizza before but always wanted to try so last night me and the fiance went to wally world to pick up a few things and i had it all done by lunch today. I used a dough recipe that didn't require it...

Hey everybody! Haven't been on here in a while due to life getting in the way but this place is booming more than ever! 20 foot boat builds, charity and giveaway stuff, and now SHIRTS?! I have missed this place almost as much as i've missed fishing weather! Long story short, i had to do a...

On May 7th i'm leaving town for an internship that's required by my degree to graduate college. I did my research and found that there are some really nice fishing waters in the area I will be going to. For my birthday, my parents got me a Pro Qualifier PQX10SHLA with 7.1:1 gear ratio (Left...

I was walking thru Harbor Freight the other day trying to figure out what i was gonna buy but didn't really know i ever needed it and i came across these floor mats. they are REALLY light which would be good for people with weight capacity problems but dont like tripping over ribs, they're...

I'm going on a canoe trip for one of my wildlife classes next weekend and we have heard that were gonna catch the smallies right at spawning time on the Buffalo River. I've fished for them in the summer on the white and buffalo rivers (they're connected to each other) and usually do pretty good...

Been wanting to get into building rods and cranks so i bought a lathe. unfortunately my garage is crammed right now so i haven't been able to set it up. I've seen corded grips used on surf rods a lot and i thought it looked pretty cool so i decided to transfer the idea over to a 13 foot...

My wildlife society at school competes every year with colleges in our region at an event called Conclave. I have been elected to enter the 3 photography competitions: landscape (pic decided), animal (help pick this one), and an event where i have 1 hour to take a pic on site and enter it in...

Found these on ebay and was a little skeptical when i saw they were selling 5 units for 10 bucks! but for 10 dollars i said what the heck ill prolly just spend that money on a cheeseburger (which i don't need!) or something so i decided to buy a set. Let me tell you these things are pretty...
