    I'd hate to know how many huge bluegill I've caught in those cypress trees on the north end of Lake Verret. My dad would take 4 of us in our aluminum boat, and I'd sit up front and scull with a short...

    Disappointed to read this. Was hoping for better. I had heard a few similar things before I made my last TM purchase.

    I can't realky tell any difference between my Quest and my older model Ultrexes. Is there a new motor that turns the head? The foot pedal is virtually identical. Both have worked well for FFS.

    If money is a problem now, it will be a bigger problem when you get the hospital bill for several injured fingers. The saw stop is a loss prevention device lol.

    I agree with this. The motor is quieter. The bracket is a bit beefier. Other than that, they basically just used all of the same stuff off of the other Ultrex. It's a marginal upgrade, and now up to...

    Wondering if that pole in front is for independent FFS, or if its on the troller.

    Yea it's a good idea. I think there was one re design on one of the boards in 2017 or 18 but don't quote me. I had a bad run with them. They were all repaired at the service center, with me standing...

    I don't think there is any difference between a followup and a "checkup" visit. Unlike after a surgery, there are no global periods where visits are included. If he wanted to see you again, it was...

    Hard to beat the good ol Bandit 300. Small hooks make it pretty easy to use in cover. I've got a bunch of them.

    I'm not good with it - that's my point. Having to bring it to a service center every time for the same problem, when they are only open during my work hours, is a major ordeal. I was just thinking of...

    That's what I've heard. When you look at how it's designed, it just seems like it would be inherently unreliable. Guess they have a different experience overall than I've had personally, thus no...

    My experience is having to replace three of these board in the last 6 years out of warranty. For the same issue every time. I was just thinking of an easy way to address a known failure point. Do you...

    I agree. It's a lot of little things to disconnect and keep track of, plus time in a tournament or the night before fixing it. It would be cool if the boards were encased in a cartridge that just...

    I started bass fishing as a kid, and I don't think I ever called a spinnerbait anything but an H & H before I was an adult.

    Is a beetle spin a spinner bait? If so, it's got to be on the list.

    Unions were so important in the creation of labor laws that exist today. But their time came and went. We're all a part of a big union called the US government now.
