Best of luck Great job Catch of a lifetime Congrats Tom

Very nice job !!! Largest Spring King I ever remember was taken by Bill Ruttan back in the late 80's out of Oswego, I weighed the fish in for the ESLO at 30.6 Good luck Hope your nerves hold out, been there !!! Tom

A reward fund is being set up and I will keep you posted. I would be more than happy to add $500.00 to any reward fund being set up to bring justice Tom

I heard earlier today of this........ UNREAL !! This is a Lose Lose situation for all, Woody's shop, the monies lost for the LOC and the community The tackle shops of today as well as David Chilson have a hard enough time as it is to keep operations in progress for us to enjoy, and some scumbag has attempted to take this away from us Other items were taken like more cash and all the menthol cigarettes in the place Let's hope the perpetrator is caught and dealt with accordingly. Tom

Woahhh Amungus Pigasus !!!! That bad boy hurt the forage for a few years !!!!! Nice job Congrats, hope it holds up for you Jeremy !!! Tom

NO BRAINER

Yes you need to be 18 You can share with me Greg !!!

Awesome Greg !!!! If your on any boat other than ours (if we make it) please bring your cam-corder We will watch it together at a later date Tom

I concur, awesome chance to cut a huge lap out of the learning curve. I use to do it, keep in mind, the top 10 boats from an elite field, in-valuable info circulating among these guys A Definite No Brainer Tom

Attaboy Bob Way to "stick it" on the 1st take !!!!

Consensus that shops with us say's that too GAMBLER, they outsell the Moor (which is 2nd favorite) about 41 to 28 !!!

The Moor unit and the Fish Hawk seem to be most popular: Just a few specifics off the top of my head on each: Fish Hawk: More expensive (average price $600.00) Digital head unit Less precise of a reading, bounces around a bit No coated cable Can get away with running braid on riggers More expensive replacement probe (average price $235.00) Upgraded last season Transducer installation needed Surface temp. http://www.fishhawkelectronics.com/ Moor Unit Average price $400.00 Use of a coated cable needed Dial type head unit, analog Very accurate reading Better availability No transducer Average price replacement probe $170.00 No surface temp. http://www.moorelectronics.com/fishing/fishing.html

Nope, its really big brother Vince

Screw the diet, I'm making some popcorn and grabbing a pepsi, this is good sh*t !!!!

Vince is on a mission.............

Agree Tim !!! We sold the the 50L model for about 3 to 4 years, they still make it in the 50 version but took the level winder off ): Would hold 700' of our heavy copper with 300 yds of 50# braid (for the Hajecki's of the bunch) (: It was a popular reel, but guess I couldn't sell enough to keep it in production, lmao Loved the over-sized handle as you mention Tom

Fish will arrive this coming Wednesday the 21st (forgot to post) I believe we have the help we need in place unless someone wishes to help me divvy up the first couple batches of food for a week or 2 (an hour or 2 tops) about 11am if interested. Tom

Just a note to the guys that still love the old Daiwa 47 counter reels, I think we all agree they are a reel that served us very well for a numerous amount of years. It's hard to store something away that doesn't owe you a penny and has gave us years of service. However in comparison to a Shimano Tekota 600LC leaves for one to give it a pretty hard look, side by side comparison my forearms thank me after a core fish or a screaming wire diver King made its way out to 600' - 700'. Can't wait to see the verdict on the Saltist, we have sold a couple dozen so far and they haven't been on our site for very long. Time will tell, we're hoping for the best as newer technology usually does end up serving our needs to a higher degree. Year after year dealing with all our expensive gear that next best thing is always out there. Brian, the retired Okuma Titus 50L (L version retired) was a hopeful, too bad there wasn't some interest in an upgrade in that neighborhood, could be a reasonably priced reel that may take the haunting feeling away from the Penn 345 era. Tom

Attaboy Vince WTG !!!! First time I asked Vince to send me a copy of his THRILLSEEKER logo while chatting on the phone he said "No problem", so after hanging up I hit refresh about 10 times, no logo ...................... 2 days later the mailman handed it to me on my front porch ROFLMAO The mention of a new ride measuring up to the old one ??? Is that even possible ??? I love it, love that whole theme ..... Not only possible I might add, but somewhat to a degree expected !! When as dedicated to our love to compete as Vince, as well as to perform, anything is possible, and that leaves that chance in a staggering category !!! All the best to the man, from the grasshopper that first shook your hand July 14, 2001 !!! Tom

Better luck next trip up !!! LO can be unforgiving

Very Nice Job

Yvan with a Y
