Thanks, that makes sense now

Question- what do you mean when you say they were mupped?

My wife tells me " It's not the size of the ride! It's the motion in the ocean LOL

I don't know about "Unwritten Rules", but the one I try to live by is treat other boats as you would hope they treat you. Not always the case though. If you ever fish in front of the Salmon River in the fall you will for surely have an incident or two . The googans will be out in full force then! Other than that time of year most everyone you fish along side of in Mexico Bay anyways will be curtious and helpful:) Dave

BHufnagle, I have a 21' Trophy walk around and I used the 24'' bags and could get down below 1mph with no problem, went with a new kicker this year and i wish I had done it long ago! Dave

Scotty mini power grips, love them!

Nice job Fish Hunter, we stayed out til around noon had to be home early, but it was fun new kicker worked great, we stayed in front of the little Salmon did manage two hits but didn't stay on long. Hope this weekends weather is better. Dave

Flurocarbon leaders make a big difference also, especially if your fishing outside the muddy water

I run 1000' feet of Malin on 47lc's with no backing, just the tape as mentioned about with no problem. I run snubbers so then I can have the drags alittle tighter, but some people don't, which ever you prefer. But just like everyone has stated they are fun to have a 20-30 salmon just taking off, the feel you get of the power these fish really have is amazing! Have fun and hang on
