    Good day fishing

    Those hybrids are, in my opinion, sorta mediocre table fare compared to their white bass cousins. I haven't eaten that many of them, but I think they taste a lot more like stripers, but maybe I'd like the ones I've had more if they were from cleaner water. I cleaned a 6-lb one earlier this...

    Mounting options for Helix 9

    I have used the swing-arm RAM mount that you are showing on the left for my 9" Helix unit, and it works well. I have it mounted to a plate on the T-rail of my Xpress duck boat. I like the ability to pivot it to the side, as I definitely have a multi-use boat. If I wanted something rock-solid...

    Somebody explain priority points for waterfowl

    I was just reading that they are averaging the points for all applicants this year for the waterfowl hunts. In the past few years when they had 4 person minimum groups, they took the highest point totals. I didn't see that listed anywhere as one of the changes. I'm emailing one of the area...

    1652 seaark 25hp Yamaha

    Whereabouts in middle TN are you? I keep finding rigs like this that are 200 miles from Memphis in all directions, so I can't get too excited about going to get/look at them. Would you consider selling the boat separately from the motor? I'm leaning towards getting a newer 40 hp on the...

    Aluminum boat painter referral?

    OK :D With a name like that, I thought you were doing a thinly-veiled promotion on your jon boat specialization services, and I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing an opportunity that I needed to be watching :)

    How "Specialized' are you? Do you do work far from home? :)

    You've got a point! I outlined what I was offering, and he agreed, so... 🤷‍♂️

    Sold/Expired 1442 Jon boat with 15 HP 4-stroke

    Sale pending to a family member (sort of surprised…). I’ll leave this up for another day or so until it finalizes, but he sounds pretty certain.

    Sold/Expired 1442 Jon boat with 15 HP 4-stroke

    I just realized that I didn’t put the price at the top (edited to add). That was a copy/paste from my Facebook Marketplace listing, which has a separate field for price. Sorry about making everyone read a novel and then do math 😀

    Sold/Expired 1442 Jon boat with 15 HP 4-stroke

    2013 Alumacraft 1442 NCS (no center seat model) w/ 2011 Mercury 15 hp 4-stroke - $3,300 Great small water setup that has been good to me as a hunting & fishing combo rig. I'm finally going to upgrade to a bigger boat and don't want to let this one sit. The original owner barely used it, and...

    Declining duck hunting

    Interesting to hear that perspective. I was talking to a guy at work the other day who hunts at a pretty $$ club in the Jonesboro area (slightly north, I think?). He was saying they had their second-best year in 17 years, killing around 1400-1500 ducks on a 150-ish acre club that primarily...

    Anybody ever?

    Are you allowed to use a canoe/kayak even?

    Aluminum boat painter referral?

    Does anyone know of a good person/company that does camo paint jobs on aluminum boats? I'm not really at a point in my life where I've got the time and inclination to pick up a first-time DIY paint job like this one, especially given the fact that it will be in February or early March. I...

    Bootheel Report

    It's frustrating to put all your literal and figurative ducks into one basket (January), but I've found myself in that position before also. This year we got some colder weather earlier, so west TN hunting has gotten better earlier than it has the past couple of years. We'll see how January...
