I couldn't agree more. I've caught more fish on Rat-l traps than anything else.

I've got to cry BS on this thing. It might as well read 'I know of a guy who works with someone who's dad used this one lure that caught so many fish they (you never know who they are) asked him to leave the lake.' Bleh. I'm as much of a sucker as the next guy when it comes to new lures that are...

I think it really depends on what you're doing--are you fishing from a boat or from shore? Are you bait fishing or using artificial lures or both? I've been a bank fisherman until recently and found that the bigger the box I carried the less water I was covering. I don't want to carry something...

My feeling is that once you find something you have confidence in you'll catch fish with it providing you're in the right water at the right time. my two favorites are a Zara Spook and Ratl traps. I've caught Musky and bass on Spooks and stripers, walleye, bass and musy on ratl traps. Both of...

I had another question about the evinrude--when I looked up the model online it said that it was a saltwater motor. What is the difference between a saltwater motor and one intended for freshwater only or is there such a distinction?

I can take my time and start high but I can't start low and increase the price. I'll be happy to let...

So based on your feedback I'm going to start the price out at $975 and see what kind of interest it generates. Since I can still fish Dawson and Clinton with the 25 I won't be rushed to drop my price too soon. One more question for you--you said that you had a 10 with a 15hp carb. Is this...

Good point about location--I forgot to add that info. I'm located in central illinois as well. Bloomington to be exact. I'm trying to get something I can fish Lake Evergreen with and trying to figure out if I can pick up something like a 5 hp without breaking the bank. As it would be just a...

I recently purchased a 16 ft V with a 1971 25 hp Evinrude on a 1993 shorelander trailer. I'm limited on where I can use it because of 10hp restrictions on my favorite lakes. The motor runs well and I've had it out several times without any problems. Here's what I'd like to get some advice on. 1...
