    Knowing that launch, Im sure you had quite the wait! I hate that launch. And having 19lbs in the well makes it that much longer!

    This thread makes me want to fish. Bad.

    I hate the transition between good ice and open water.

    I can't wait man. I need to do some bait shopping. My tackle bag is looking depleted.
    Where do you buy your baits?

    2096 SeaArk with a 90 hp Mercury. Custom deck welded for bowfishing with 6 150 watt HPS lights running from a remote ballast box. 110 lb thrust saltwater troller. Galvanized trailer since previous owner ran it on ocean frequently. Just recently stripped the decals and repainted the hull. We have a removable filming deck for bowfishing that stands an additional 4 ft off the shooting deck, but I only put it in when we used to film for the show.

    Sadly, we are putting it up for sale this week as I've used it 4 times the past two years with out time for use in the near future.

    If they're in there I haven't seen them. It has some big crappie, but the only bass I ever catch are spotted bass and none of them are over fourteen-sixteen inches.

    It fantastic and big enough for three guys to walk around and not have it tipping on you.

    Snook. Tarpon. Snapper. Redfish. Everything. I've gone off shore but inshore is really great.
    Brackish water where I live.

    All over the place lol. Theres some things that are better to get at cabelas, others at bps, and others at tackle warehouse. If I could only buy from one place ever it would be tackle warehouse. I buy a lot local also. Never found many deals at ****s (and dont like shopping there anymore) or gander mt but will shop at gander if I have to.

    haha yeah I think I would fish more personally lol. But I guess if I had hogs around I would spend a good bit of time chasing them also. And an extra day hunting is cheaper then a day fishing with gas prices these days!
