    Expert opinion needed....

    The only time I believe the person in the back has an advantage is when you are fishing colder water. Sometimes the fish don't bite until that later cast.

    New Congress Bill to Limit Bass Boat Horse Power!

    Most of boating accidents involve the general public and they were drinking. But as usual, the goverment lumps everyone together. Sometimes, they should do things for the general public and don't take the money from the specialty groups.

    Just One Rod...

    It would be a Kistler LTA 6'6", medium heavy with a Diawa Zillion. 12 lb P-Line floroclear on 1 spool and 15 lb. P-Line Floroclear on the other. The Kistler is an older model. I don't think the newer ones are the same quality.

    Livewell and bilge odor...How to clean?

    If you want, use vanilla extract on a sponge and wipe the sides and bottom. It gives it a nice smell and doesn't harm the fish. Don't forget, do this after you clean your livewell.
