That looks great put i can just see a game warden having an issue with that on a boat. Shouldn't be that hard to build a red neck version, base it off of a tater gun. pvc, grill ignitor and spraynet and it could work.

Ok, I know yall will laugh at this as i would if it didnt happen to me so im ok with it, but i have an important question. I have a water tender, the under 10ft version. How do i dock it on shore and not fall out of it again? I know that is a stupid question but i am really serious, i fell out of mine last trip and i dont want to go through that again. on top of falling over the side as i was trying to walk out of the rear of the boat, my eyes were blood red because of a contact lens issue i was having. So, all the people that came to my aide that i was drunk, high or a combination of both. They wanted to know if i was ok to drive, one guy even offered to drive or follow me home. oh btw i lost two of my 7 fish , it was a rough day. so any advice that yall can give a klutzy fool like myself would be helpful. I had the same issue with my boat but I now simply wear rubber boots in the winter and wading shoes in the summer. Reggie

Why don't you just drive the boat up on the bank and just walk off the front?
If you are at a dock why don't you just tie it off before trying to get out?
I don't see the problem here.

Its the desgin of the bottom of his boat.
Its a tri-hull so the "skegs" will hit the bottom well before he gets close enough to the bank to jump out (without gettin in the drink).
It will not draft as shallow as our Hunter boats.
That hull design makes it very stable though. You could have a mosh pit on that boat without flipping it ha ha.

I think it has more to do with how much that battleship weighs, it just simply runs aground.

Your not going to catch big Bass at Luna............ Your correct, no good fish there,and a really hard place to fish. Best you just stay away. I agree. I think everyone should stay clear of that place until May. I will personally watch over it until then. Carry on. LOL. Kolton, I plan on holding you to that. I won't actually make you eat one from Luna as I don't want to be charged with attempted murder but I'm sure we could find an acceptable substitute.

If you do fish Luna right now, Fish the very back creeks, thats where they are hanging out right now. Under the bridge there is no action.
Thats a fact Jack!!!

Do any of you have a trailer that you use to transport your buster? I'm 6'1" and 220 so lifting the thing in and out of the truck isn't the problem. I am sick of loading and unloading it to do so. I already have a dolly to get me to the water but usually just back right up to it so I really never use it. If anyone is looking for one hit me up. Nothing fancy.
My rig is a 10 footer. I saw a trailer on the Northern Tools website but it doesn't look like the sturdiest of utility trailers but it is only $400. Any suggestions besides Craigslist?

Sorry onthebank, I don't eat bass. I "fixed" DPJ's post for him.
I have a trailer for mine, it's gonna come in handy for sure. Light weight and easily moved by hand when loaded. Only problem I see having is if I put it behind my F250 I'll need to remove the tailgate in order to see it at all...

Keep checking with Craigslist. I was able to get a Jet Ski trailer for $75. I added some bunks and use it to haul my boat around.

I wouldn't eat anything from that water.
