How many pound test are you using for frogging? I'm thinking you would spool that PX since the spool is so shallow. I couldn't imagine using it for frogging because of that. I can almost spool a 200 series Curado with 65# PP.

Wait..... you saw a random guy bank fishing, a guy youve never met before, and you offered him a seat on your boat?
If you ever stop by Minnesota, let me know son!

The legendry sportsmanship of a BASS member. Good for the sport, and our reputation. Well done Nitroman77, and tight lines for the tourneys.
Re: Some Recent Pics from Travels (tournies)
The pics are awesome, but it is really something special when you just pick a random dude up and take him fishing. My hat is off to you sir!
Re: Some Recent Pics from Travels (tournies)
That last pic of the building u found with the structure scan is ridiculous! Wish I could afford the same unit??

Yea I was cleaning up the boat at the motel and he walked by and started to ask questions and how he lived right by the lake and always fished from the bank and never got to go out on the lake so I offered to take him out the next morning since I was going out anyway. he was a good guy and really appreciated it.. The backseat of the boat is always open to whoever wants to fish.bassmaster_flex wrote:Wait..... you saw a random guy bank fishing, a guy youve never met before, and you offered him a seat on your boat?

Sweet pics and nice fish. Also props on taking some people out, thats a great way to keep this sport going strong. I only wish I had a boat so I could get out and get other people out.

Re: Some Recent Pics from Travels (tournies)
I have thought the same thing for a while now. So, my wife told me she is paying on a jon boat for me as a birthday/anniversary gift, both of which recently passed by. She is the best. I'll post pics when I actually get it, probably around Halloween. The bass fishing should be dynamite here around that time. Next on the list: an outboard. Christmas IS coming up shortly. I'm just sayin'....bassinmaumee wrote:...I only wish I had a boat so I could get out and get other people out.
By the way, nice road trip pics and story, Trey!
