    HTS-2000

    The brazing process is going to be similar to soldering. Especially plumbing soldering(sweating). I don't see why it wouldn't work assuming you know how use the product fairly well. The rods are pretty cheap. You can always get some and try it, but I'd test it before taking out on big water. A...

    What are the best rod holders while towing?

    That's how my father-in-law and I do it on his Lowe bass boat. To be safe we make sure the reels are on the bow side of the bungee. Suffice it to say my father-in-law can sometimes be a "spirited" driver even with the boat in tow. We've never had them move around on us.

    1432 restoration / adaptation

    Currently I have pulled out the really bad dents. It's not perfect, but it's good enough for me considering what it is, and what it will be used for. I don't have any more pictures for you today. I do have some more, but they are on my other computer. You'll just have to be patient.

    1432 restoration / adaptation

    In the pics you'll see the rivets have been covered in Epoxy, Tar & some kind of tar patch. Everything blue leaks. The worst of is is a really bad crack at the bow where the boat undoubtedly took a nasty impact...

    1432 restoration / adaptation

    Hey all. Just recently traded another user. On my end I got an Eldocraft 1432 Arkansas Rambler with a couple of plastic seats. This boat is a slight upgrade from my 1232. I needed the extra capacity and truthfully, I still want more capacity and more width, but I can't afford anything that big...

    anyone bowfish from a small flatbottom?

    I had thought about LED's but I'm not sure how well they'll penetrate the water down in Mississippi. I'd like HPS, but I'm trying not to blow the budget.

    Bow issues. How to you break them?

    Exactly. I've had people up in Michigan tell me about ruining $600 recurves by bowfishing with them! I build my bows from heat treated plastic. They are, as far as I've tested, weatherproof. They are also bouyant so If you drop it overboard, you can grab it and keep shooting. They are also a...

    anyone bowfish from a small flatbottom?

    Hey all, I have an old Delhi 1232. I want to start bowfishing local waters next season. I am just not too sure if I'll be able to pull this off with any success because of the weight limits of my boat along with it only being a 1232 It'll be fairly tippy trying to stand up to shoot. I'll be...

    Bow issues. How to you break them?

    I actually build bows, (recurves mostly) and was wanting to get an idea of problems people have with bows. I've heard stories of de-laminating limbs, dropping a bow in muddy water and losing the bow entirely, stepping on a bow thereby breaking it. Things like that, So I can come up with...

    Bow issues. How to you break them?

    I'd like to get an idea of what types of things go wrong with your bowfishing bows. A buddy of mine tells me he is constantly replacing his bows and I've seen other Pros breaking their equipment as well. What keeps breaking? I'm interested in all bows wood, fiberglass, even compounds. Please...

    what kind of speed can i expect?

    that's what i expected to hear. 35-40 is probably going to be plenty fast for a 16' boat anyhow.
