Vinny Chase

http://kansascity.craigslist.org/boa/1624239981.html I may be getting this boat if it passes inspection. I was just wondering if any of you could give me more info about this boat and it it is a good deal at $1800. I live in MN so that is a long drive i want to make sure its worth it. Thanks, VC

GT70 MH Is that what you were asking for?

I meant action

A few months ago i purchased an HMG for $50!! Yea it was a sweet deal, but im starting to wonder when i can use it. It is a 7' MH (doesnt say the action on it). I was hoping i could use it as my frog/pitching rod, but i havent got one response back saying i should. I dont know what to do because i want a versital setup and a frog rod/pitching setup and i dont know if this fits either. Thanks, VC

I WAS ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT FOR A SECOND THERE!! haha i go to Bethel University in MN and i saw the link and said no way, but of course it wasnt meant to be :-/

I guess my best fishing times are different then the rest of the responses....My favorite time is fish is around 6pm to sundown

How long is this sale going for?

I posted earlier about trying to find a descent frog rod. Cabelas has a buy one get one free on their casting rods. Would the 7'6" version work well with what i am looking for? Also would i get the xh? or H? http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp?id=0065081&type=pod&cmCat=catfeatfish Thanks, VC

Thanks this really helps!

Is there any particular time when i should think about using a more flashy chartreuse color?

What colors should i start looking at in the with the Rapalas and Bandits? And remember i do live in MN where the prime bait fish for bass are bluegill Thanks, VC

I am just starting to get into crainkbait fishing. I am looking for a few lures that are considered the top crainkbaits to through, and preferably at either GM or Cabelas (the local stores here in MN). I would like a shollow, medium, and deep diver in a natural color like bass or bluegill which those matching the environment in the MN lakes. Also i was looking at the Cabelas dig-it crainks has anyone used these?

You don't have children, Vinny, do you. :-? Hey, I still check the listings for kicks every now & again. If I happen to see something worthwhile, I'll PM you; but you really should be checking every day yourself. Once Spring Fever hits (fishing, not baseball) prices are going to shoot up. If you see something you're at all I interested in - call. I just happened to call the guy I got my boat from within 2 hours of him posting it. In 3 days it was in my driveway. You have to be diligent because, like I said, the good deals go fast. And if you didn't know, like I didn't, no title for boats under 16'. Trailer has one though. And lifetime plates transfer to new owner of trailer. That's a bonus to look out for. haha nope i dont have kids still in college. Thanks for looking out and letting me know about that title tip!

Yea i agree the dome was a horrible place to watch baseball, but a great home field advantage. Cant wait though for some outdoor baseball unless its still snowing :-/ BTW i love Busch stadium that place is beautiful

ill be interested to see the response to this. This looks like it could be a very affective bait

I have heard you talk so much about this line, but i just had one more question before i went out and put it on all my setups. I hear all this talk about using different lines with different baits. Does this line work for everything? In all situations? Or do i need to have more setups with mono and flouro on? Ps I have one other setup with braid for froggin

Hey thanks for all the tips! I cannot wait for the day where i can fish till the afternoon, take my boat out of the water and go straight to Target field for a Twins game! This summer is going to be great

Yea i really do not care about the boat year itself, but the motor...I want something that will last me a good ten more years until i can get myself a ranger

I really love what Storm has done with their products the last few years. Before i use to not even think about purchasing a storm product, but i got a hold of the kickin minnows and loved them, and now every storm product i touch leaves me catching fish. I would think this lure is going to produce for ya

Strike King Bitsy Bug are my personal choice

I have seen some in the mid 90's for around 3000 so ill probably jump on one of those soon

You are not going to get a newish bass tracker for under 3000. You are probably going to have to settle for an oldish one instead. Yea i guess i was thinking the newest i could possibly get is a '01

Do you guys know of a brand i should check out that would be an the lower end of my budget. I have been checking Bass Trackers and Lowe, but if you guys know of other ones i could look out for that would be great Thanks, VC

I have looking for a descent frog rod for under $60. I dont fish frogs all that much so i dont need a really nice rod, but do you guys know of a rod that will do the job for the price. I prefer a 7'2" or 7'3" Thanks, VC

One thing i have learned is always be prepared when you fish. If you go in under prepared you could lose a fish of a lifetime. If you are using what you say that you are there is a good chance of losing that 10+ lb that you always dream of
