Gettin' Ready

Gettin' Ready - 08/07/18 02:14 AM

Got 4 New Rippin Lips 7'6" MH Rods in today and a 3 bank onboard battery charger. banana My Boat Rods will be a Mix of ProAngler and Rippin' Lips - I like them Both and find them Pretty comparable. Pro Angler may be Better on Fish over 50 lbs.? Got circle Hooks, swivels, cigar floats and more lead coming, put new Hubs on me boat trailer Last Week....... Meat Hunters are going Away, Cabelas Whuppin Sticks went away Last Year, and Cabelas King Kats the year before (All Good rods but I don't like guide inserts cuz they come out and ProAngler n Rippin Lips have better action)..........

I pulled 372 lbs of saturated foam out of my boat Saturday. It should have weighed less than 20. I bet I'll crack the 40 mph mark this year!

Oh Ya-Fun Times - I did my transom last Fall - in my driveway. Poured an Airjay transom. And did floor from console back but my foam was Good.
