    Trying to keep tabs on Newton. We're not down there for another two weeks, but I imagine things maybe slowed down a bit with the recent cold. Any reports out there?

    WTB - 2023+ Lowe Stinger 178

    I will likely be ordering new end of year or early 2025, but I figured I'd throw out and bump a feeler in the BBC community. Needs to be a 90hp or less due to my lake restrictions.

    Keep the reports coming. Curious how an early spring might affect the lake. In years past, we've always gone down end of March, but seemed to always be a touch early for pre-spawn. Made the decision...

    Good to hear the quality still swims there. That's a special place for a group of us. Normally we head down in March, but opted for the 2nd weekend in April this year. Sadly, I worry we'll miss the...

    Thanks for the setup pics. I went ahead and ordered the boatlogix offset mount simply for adustability. A bit pricey, but I'll get some photos up once everything is finalized.

    Yes I think I'll need to stick with a 12 and 10 and have them offset versus having 2 12s. Even then it may be pushing it. Boatlogix has an offset mount that should potentially work.

    Anyone planning on getting out opening day? Hard to believe it's around the corner. I'm off Fridays but feel like it'll probably be even more wild than normal so I'll sit this one out. Maybe the...

    2011 Merc 90 Optimax 2 stroke vs 115

    Physically, are these motors the same size? I wasn't sure the differences between the two. I'd imagine if they have the same block, they weigh approximately the same as well? I wasn't sure if the...
