It was in my 18.5 foot skeeter, then my 19.6 foot triton and now in my current boat. Still works and I am sure it is good luck...for someone th Good Fishing and God Bless “I’d rather be a failure at something I enjoy than to be a success at something I hate”

Very true but the TPWD in my opinion is doing a great job of not only restocking the name brands but if you look off the beaten path you can find some amazing fishing no one cares about! Tournament pressure and popularity of bass fishing have stressed a lot of these fisheries! Ivie is one of my favorite places in the world but I haven’t been there in 2 years because of the noteriety and pressure! TPWD deserves kudos there and many others thru out the state!

This is truest statement of all! Being a child of the 70's and 80's we had so many good lakes that you just went to and caught fish with a worm, jig or spinner bait. #MFGA
