    For those who do scale, a buddy told me to use a spoon. The shape of a tablespoon is great for keeping the scales more contained than a scaler and you should already have one, you savages :).

    The biggest issue IMHO with Tracker is that they can cost more than the competition. Here's the reasoning:
    Cheap, underpowered trolling motor, cheap fish finders, underpowered main motor.

    The JB weld marine spots on the transom are because the previous owner had trolling paddles on it. The trolling paddles didn't come with it, so it just had the plastic mounts. I wanted to be sure...

    We just came back from Sugarloaf. The dock is either gone or underwater. I was hoping one of the ramps had a dock that wasn't underwater.

    The lake is super high. Are there any ramps with courtesy docks that are usable?

    Thanks. Google maps is how I found it, which obviously isn't up to date :).
  14. How's the water depth on Hickahala creek?

    There is a boat ramp off 51 for Hickahala creek (I believe that's the creek name) outside of Arkabutla lake. Does anyone know how deep the ramp is, how deep the water is, and if it's navigable all...

    Here is my entry. That there is an Asian carp. I think it is a silver carp, but in any case, it's no longer harming the ecosystem.

    I got two today, both by snagging. They are filter feeders,...

    Go with the lightest weight jig you can get away with. I usually stay at 1/32 ounce. Cast it out, let it sink to the bottom (watch the line because it may not make it to the bottom before getting...

    I've found that 110v (120v, whatever) is so much superior to 12v DC (like cigarette lighter or clamp onto the battery type). I use Mister Twister but that's because I'm cheap.

    I like 4# mono AND 10# braid. I can't imagine 4# braid. 10# is hard enough to see and tie. On the other hand, I hate 6# mono because it's too thick and stiff for ultralight, IMHO. I keep...

    The pressb20 is very nice. The only thing I would caution you about is that is about a 500 or maybe 750 size, so smaller spool=more line twist.

    Try casting from 10 or 15 feet back from the bank, so the fish can't see you. If 1/64 is too light and 1/16 is too heavy, try 1/32.

    To answer your original question, yes, 60" is way too long. Even with a 45", you're probably going to have the head about 6-12 inches above the bow. Add another 15 inches to that and low side-arm...
