Super report TD, thanks.
Sounds like some fairly tough fishin but you managed some keepers. I liked the pic of Ironworkers setup on his toon...looks just about what I have in mind for mounting a minn kota...I was chatting with my brother and he is upgrading his and offered me his 28lb thrust for FREE...
On another note I know about tough fishin as I was in the Bass tourny here yesterday as a backseater. 1 keeper Bass for me in 7 hours fishin was tough (pic attached). My boating partner caught only 4. A few caught their limit and it was a tie for first place with 8lbs each. The lunker was 3.8lbs which is a good size for here.
I truly realized yesterday when you guys talk about the slower pace of fishing from a toon or tube. I personally felt my partner fished way to fast. I am sure I would have had a better catch rate if he had slowed down or better yet I had been able to fish outta my toon...now I have thoughts of adding livewell after getting setup with motor and a way better fishfinder...but all in good time...
Thanks for the link to those pics from Ironworkwer, wow thats awesome work...
