Very sorry to read this. Our prayers for you and his family.

Thanks - that's in the works. I decided to fish with it a season to see where I might want it, with FFS being such a big deal now.

Excel 230 Elite. It's just a big center console bass boat. I've given up nothing as far as tournament fishing, and I can take the family fishing much easier now.

I think it's a lack of design specifically for bass fishing - low sides, rod placement, rod storage, and a lip on the front deck. Very few center consoles set up well for bass fishing, but the one I...

I switched to a center console this year. It's so much easier to fish out of, and land fish. Makes me wonder why I waited so long to do it. Just a lot easier to move around in the boat.

Hope they get you to a hand guy that can do a flap to cover the end, instead of just shortening it. Will depend on how much bone you have left in the last segment.

I agree - as a TD, I will monitor this and ask guys to clear out so that people can get launched. When I first moved here, I was pretty astounded to see guys just shoot their boat off the trailer at...

These are my people, and I couldn't be prouder. Having spent a number of years there, I'm surprised they didn't pummel them. Free Speech Alley at LSU had always been a place where all view points are...

I think bass tournaments are the best it gets at a crowded ramp - everyone seems to know the way it works. But throw in recreational boaters when the weather warms up, and it gets pretty chaotic.

Thanks- it was an ugly duckling that turned into a swan. Took a long time for my wife to not think I bamboozled her lol. She wanted a neighborhood house, and I needed some space.

On my 5th of 7 years. Very few things I've spent money on have made me this happy.

So ours was painted a tan color when we got it.

We added on, and painted it white, with black trim. We love it now. Something about a soft white painted brick that looks great. We're...

Just water them with a bucket of salt water every night. Eventually they won't be a problem.

Ours is painted white. These days, having it repainted isn't that horrible - they do it in 2-3 days with sprayers. If you use good paint, it makes it a lot easier to clean. We figure 7-9 years, maybe...

I'm sad to hear that. I've never fished anywhere better for big bluegill than that.

I'd hate to know how many huge bluegill I've caught in those cypress trees on the north end of Lake Verret. My dad would take 4 of us in our aluminum boat, and I'd sit up front and scull with a short...

Grew up in that swamp. Got a nice scholarship to college doing my science fair project on sediment pollution there. Most of my best childhood memories have something to do with different parts of the...

Disappointed to read this. Was hoping for better. I had heard a few similar things before I made my last TM purchase.

I can't realky tell any difference between my Quest and my older model Ultrexes. Is there a new motor that turns the head? The foot pedal is virtually identical. Both have worked well for FFS.

If money is a problem now, it will be a bigger problem when you get the hospital bill for several injured fingers. The saw stop is a loss prevention device lol.

I agree with this. The motor is quieter. The bracket is a bit beefier. Other than that, they basically just used all of the same stuff off of the other Ultrex. It's a marginal upgrade, and now up to...

I can't even imagine. Every building is a demo and start over situation. Every business shut down.

Drone video from Oklahoma tornado last night. Just wow.

We have 4 houses, and 3 of the 4 had sucessful nesting this year. We now have baby geese, baby ducks, purple martins laying eggs, and our killdeer babies are starting to fly. Been our best bird year...

Wondering if that pole in front is for independent FFS, or if its on the troller.
