I was always under the thought that you really didn't want the rigger weight to be as noticeable as your rig, I've had many false releases. Only to find out my flasher, dodger took the hit?

Our local lake is way down at least 30-40 foot of shore line showing, the loading dock sit flat on the ground. Only little aluminumm boats are able to back way out beyond the docks, I can't because there is a 10" lip from were the forms for the pad end, I'll tear an axle out. Hope it gets better before the ice comes.

That's our wonderful government hard at work, makes me sick!!!

This is a steel!! And probably the Best Buy on LOU. That is very generous of you Prof T, I can't believe someone didn't jump on this, in case someone needed a power plant, could make a quick $300 and still be a bargin!!!

What I find really disturbing is that the stores becoming more generic means when you make a special trip and they do not have an item you want to look at carefully before purchasing you wonder why they even bother having a store in the first place. Been burned by Auburn several times This is so how many time did Hamburg store advertise specials, that never existed!! I've had this happen twice, but I didn't get as pizzed as the guy along side of me did!! They advertised that they had the 17 mag on sale till there gone, open at 8:am, we left my house at 6:am 1 other car in the parking lot. Now this is the Hamburg store only this other guy came from Delaware and we were after the same gun, well I left the guy go first. 8:am they opened up and the 3 of us marched back in the gun area, nobody there, waited 10 minutes patiantly 3 more not so mean while there guys stocking shelves, finally we get someone to notice us. They guy said I want to buy the new 17 mag that's on sale, make a long story short, they didn't have any!! Maybe they ment the 17hmr I don't know but they wouldn't rain check us, give a $25 voucher let alone a $50 the other guy insisted they give him for his efforts to get to the store, he said I figured it would be 1 gun now were out but none!! You gotta be F'n kidding me none!!! I have gone down for Spro swivels notta. Fluro line ya the $45 for 20 yards, no North Land harness making floats, so ya I've made a few lost cause trips. Till I started calling with my list and it always seemed what I wanted most they didn't have. They advertise they carry Macks smile blades and carry their line of products, well if you call 3 rows of Macks 1" black blades, carrying Macks full line of products?? Like B.S. Says if you want to see before you buy and you go there and you see nothing, that really grinds my gears!!

Hey congrats to a slammer year there Final Flight, one thing I learned over the years is Never say Never!!! Hey when yer good yer good!! LOL. Quite the accomplishment there. May the fish gods reward you for another crack at it next year. PAP.

The Cabela's Hamburg store is only 45 min away, a little to convenient, LOL and a Bass Pro about 1 1/2 hrs away, Cabela's has a lot more stuff for the trollers and a great amount of stuff for the walleye fisherman. Where Bass Pro carries NortLand products, I prefer Cabela's over Bass Pro but that's me. I would imagine differant species of fish would pull one way or another. I was in both more than my wife knows!! Shhhhh!! Cabela's is way more oriented towards the deep water and fresh and some salt water. They also have there own brand of lures, that look as good as the main brand but a lot less money, but that's why the old saying, "you only get what ya pay for" stands true as far as Cabela's brand hard bodies baits are terrible, also Cabela's makes you think your getting a good price on any of their products, well that's not the case with everything, I buy most of my hard body baits at our local bait shop as they are up to a dollar less than the big box stores. I really don't know what to think with the two merging together. The last time I was in Cabela's you could tell something was up the shelves were bare, I asked a rep in the store what's up you have nothing, he said management only wants 35% of what's in the catalog. Well I might as well order it off the main store in Nebraska. With that said I'll use the mom & pop shops, at least they carry what good for the area waters.

Who on here has a Cabelas credit card with the points? I have a nice sum of points which equals a nice sum in Cabelas in store money?? Maybe go shopping quick. Last night on the news they claimed Bass Pro bought Cabelas for X amount of $$$ .

So for $599.00 you would have what a fish hawk does 1 temp 2 speed at the ball 3 another prob that could be run higher telling temp and speed ? Right then I could use one of four the 4 iPads that float around for a screen? Does it fill the iPad so you can see it from the back of my boat, like are the numbers larger than a cell phone

X2 PLUS catch and release, pull the female or the male till it gets back to the nest the gobies have it destroyed. You don't even s need hook on, just put a worm on the swivel and you'll catch a smallie. Guys talk about sportsmanship and ethics, well where the hell are they. Here's a prime example of no sportsmanship and no ethics if one calls this fun. One is only thinking about themselves and bragging rights, it's not that hard to catch a 6#er off the nest!!?!!

Totally awesome Buck, way to get jr into the scene!!!!

I agree BS. Word down here in Pa. Is already not good, the smallies aren't what they used to be, doesn't really matter what the reasons are, the eye fishing is tuff for the average person, now there talking cutting the salmon stocking, not a good pic. Painted for LakeO. I personally know 5 differant guys that pulled their campers out of campgrounds and looking towards Lake Erie or two of them got into Seneca already and caught more fish in a few outings then they did all year out of LakeO so??? Don't look or sound good.

Why is the basic $599 and the next kit is basically 1 more probe that's not speed capable, for $435.00 more does a probe cost $435 a piece, I'm really leaning towards this outfit in the near future!! Thanks pap

Excellent job guys, those are some stout eyes!! Some nice eyes starting to put the feed bag on for the winter!! Thanks for posting
