The only "roll casting" I know of is done with a fly rod. Raise the rod slowly till it's 100% vertical and then you throw the tip down quick making a huge loop with the line that rolls forward and gently plops the fly down.

Glenn, are those bassresource colors custom or did you design the site to match the boat?

I like to use a fine looking woman to watch the boat while I park. ;D

lol

Just did this one for quantumpt

I used microsoft picture it. The newer version is called digital image and it's super easy. First I pull up the main picture (will be backround) then I pull one of my friends pics and a. crop b. soften edges c. right click and select "add to collage" and it puts pic on top of my pic and you can size it and move it around. Then I put the text in. Really simple! I bet these programs can probably do alot more, I just don't know how yet.

alhuff- try these for ideas and google "jon boat conversion" http://www.myjonboat.com/gerry.htm http://bassresource.com/fishing/bass_boat.html second link is part 1 of a 3 part article, see link at bottom of part 1.

These are the friends that caught on my boat this year. I make one of these each year and mail one to each person. Great way to preserve the memories of the year in 1 pic. If anyone wants me to make them one, send me the pics and the title you want.

Kiddin,right man? Payback? lol!! TOTALLY playin here, thought the joke was everybody pretending not to know that you da man for the toothy critters!! Trust me, I just might be looking you up. I always thought that the primest pike fishing would be a fly in to Manitoba or somthing but I'm learning that htey are much closer and just as big so....... Don't be offended or embarressed, would never want you to feel that way, just harmless ribbing. Sorry man. We good?

ok, 1 more for the list max-in-mn- musky lol

off topic but does anyone,..I mean,..ANYONE know where I can get some good musky advice?

my 1964 restore

sounds like that guy either wasn't catchin' or was catchin' but got called home by the wife. And you got the brunt of his frustrations.

What else have you tried other than a buzzbait?

I've had a great year so far. No PB's or anything very notable but lots of 5's (pretty good for new england) Had a super ice out and a very steady spring and summer with things just slowing down in the last few weeks. Waiting now on that fall feed. Good luck to all you tourny fisherman, especially shad_master,...way to go setting a goal and not being distracted, I can see you in the top ten. nick-way to go with that 9-6!! FALL IS ON IT'S WAY FOLKS!!! I'LL be expecting some nice pics in the next few months from you guys. CATCH 'EM UP!

Raul- Tell the monkey.lol you'll probably have one in a week!

I've also used the slide rail system and they work great. Does th boat have to be put on the roof upside down?

SAME HERE, Pat's are on!!! woo hoo!! Added: madhouse27-director of beverages

I'll definately throw a jig as deep into trouble as I would a SB, so that's not a reason for me. I swin a jig slower than I retrieve a s/b. Pretty close to "slow-rolling" a s/b but the appeal is a "craw" look instead of a "baitfish" look. Jig also has faster fall rate

Actually, I posted this as a reference for folks who might want to ask a question about somthing in particular. As far as I am concerned, everyone here is equal. We got rookies to guides to pros. We have computer wizzes, firemen and nurses. We got kids, granddads and moms. As for post count, I wish mine wasn't so high because as I see it, the more your typing, the less you're fishing! We don't judge people on this site and certainly not by post count, I think that's one of the main attractions to most here. A "noobie" is a good thing here because we know that person will recieve the advice needed to further his/her passion for fishing as opposed to some other forums that would have the same person running for cover in a week. And as for "what about Glenn?", Glenns specialty is designing and maintaining the atmosphere I just described. Anyone here knows how well he does this and that's y you're still here. As for hurt feelings,...c'mon guys, you know me, this is a list for reference in case you want someone personally to answer your question. These are also the people I have PERSONALLY been helped by and feel confident in refering them. An anonymous angler asked me to add these: earthworm77 jigs Chris jigs & crankbaits Brad_Coovert C-rig Sweetwater C-rig Bowjunkie35, welcome and I look forward to getting to know you and pick your brain. Glenn- feel free to delete w/no hurt feelings, potential to go awry.

My buddy that went overboard last week , was partially blaming that mount. Granted he leaned too far, but if the clamp hadn't let go, I bet he would have stayed much drier. I'm refering to them lifting as Ben said. I would just get by w/ cushions for now, but otherwise for the same money, ($11 7" pedestal and $10 swivel), you can mount them much more securely and they can still go on the roof.

This site has a couple guys who really know there stuff when it comes to certain aspects of fishing. This is the BR pro team as I have it so far Dr. Raul- everything veterinary Asctech- everything guide related reelmech- any equipment questions, especially reels. Lowbudgethookers- diy jonboat guy roadwarrior-soft plastics and anything smallmouth related. GamblerOH- paint repair and finishes. Any type of cosmetic repair. Who have I forgotten?

That will be 1 very heavy jon boat and will cost you as much as a used aluminum one, but I know what it's like to get a project in your head,lol.

I did this one this spring. They hold up terrific, this one is a 1964! http://bassresource.com/cgi-bin/bass_fish/YaBB.pl?board=boating_ID;action=display;num=1119359773

LEFT- idle down RIGHT-idle up HOWEVER, this sounds more like a frozen throttle cable.
