    There is only one real way to tell and that is to take each boat for a test ride so you can see how well you like them. If they won't give you a ride, don't buy. If you decide on the Tracker you might give Pro's Choice marine in Warsaw MO. They are the largest tracker dealer and they usually have prices below anywhere else you can find. Guys have told me that they have saved as much as $5000 on a new Nitro.

    None of the above. Deep for me is a jigging spoon.

    Try the MUD HOLE. I think they may have one. If I remember it is item 3183 but I'm not certain.

    I keep one in an excel spreadsheet and have for several years.

    That must have been some kind of wind storm to make waves that large on Table Rock.

    A bit pricey but I think the Jeep Cherokee in Diesel would tow anything. My wife tows my Champ with a Jeep Liberty CRD.

    I had the same issue as Mike on my Optimax. It turned out to be the upper tank causing the alarm. I replaced it and everything was good to go.

    When you melt down plastic you will end up with green or brown if you mix colors. The $16 outlay is only a portion of what you will need.

    I am by no means a motor tech but it sounds like a fuel problem to me.

    You might also be having a problem with the micro switch. When I bought a new TE 82 the switch had to be replaced within 2 months.

    Of those 2 the Javelin is the only choice. A 16' boat in this day and age of 7'+ rods is way too small for even one guy.

    I looked into having one of my ponds stocked. I was told by a fisheries biologist to harvest 20 bass per acre per year and never throw a gill back.

    The Fenwick HMG rods may be what you want. I have a couple of their bitty rods and love them. I have caught all kind of fish on them using finesse baits.

    There are times you can't beat a red jig on Table Rock.

    The weight is good but the reserve capacity is very low.

    It isn't hard to do but it takes some equipment. You need: plastisol $40/gallon, colorant $3-5 each color, glitter $3-5 each color and size, softner, hardner, heat stabilizer, good gloves, respirator,a mold $ 50-150 depending on whether or not it is injection, a heat source $20-100 depending on what you use hot plate or microwave, containers $5-20 each depending on your heat source (pans, pyrex cups or silicone cups) and some type of powdered salt. You can probably buy a lot more than you will use for less money that it takes to get set up. If you aren't going to make a bunch of plastics it will never be economically sound for you to make your own.

    A friend of mine ran a 16' Lowe jon with a wheel for 25 years.

    This is just a version of the Texas rig. We always called it Tex-skin. This article says Texas rig but it is actually Tex-skin if you read what it says. http://www.wikihow.com/Texas-Rig-a-Plastic-Worm

    Mike at Seibert outdoors makes them with skirts.

    Since Merc has the lion's share of the market most techs can diagnose and service them. That is the way I'd go.

    Check out Stay n Charge. It might be what you need.

    I like to fish worms in the submerged brush using a little weight as possible.

    Have you tried booking it out at NADA?
  24. Jig Man
    It is a Merc Optimax 225.

    If you want to eat the fish then tell the guide up front what you want. If he doesn't want to do that then find someone else. Also, Jerry Snider has a bait shop in Kimberling City and is a guide.
