    Lures I'm dying to throw

    I love crankbaits ang jigs, but since starting my jon boat conversion, having a new trolling motor and fish finder will hopefully take my fishing to another level. With less than a month to go until all the lakes open around here, I just wanted to start a thread with our most anticipated lures...

    Since I'm in college, I come across many people with aluminum jon boats who love bass fishing in my area. Shouldn't be anything wrong with posting a few here and there for some more exposure. Needless to say, if you have a spare moment, print one off and post at your school, work, or place of...

    new boat i might buy

    Pretty much a brand new rig. If it's in the condition you say, that guy is biting the bullet. The 2008 25hp Yamaha looks like they're going for $2000+, so I would say it's a deal that would be hard to pass up.
