    I am just checking weather or not anyone has one they are trying to get rid of… I looked on the classified section but it is pretty empty.
    Thanks

    Jeremy,

    Did the river eat your Prop? Or are you trying to squeeze
    a couple more MPH’s out of the ol’ Merc?

    Well,
    You know me. Rock pile here, Sandbar there.
    I bet if you were to weigh it I would be a few ounces off what a new one weighs. -lol-
    I have a couple blades that are sure chewed up.

    Oh the Power of Suggestion!

    Last night, in an after work club T, I did some
    modification to my Raker, on a long rocky point, that must
    have grown longer over winter We did take 1st, so there
    is a small consolation, as I write out the check to pay
    to have the Raker made right.

    Congrats you Dog!!!!
    Im beginning to think that FTR brings good tournament fortune while equipment suffers.
    Good Job on the Win.. Were you back on one of your moraine lakes again.. I pitty the guys who try to compete with you in this setting. I remember last year when we were talking about that little mesa / oli lake in my back yard. Your thinking was right on. Thanks again, And thanks for the Spinnerbait skirts you sent. They will work just fine.. The other ones you sent me here a touch greener inthe chart catagory… Almost glowing.
    Later Dude!

    Jeremy,

    Yup it was a classic clear moraine lake setting, and the
    fish were where the book said they’d be . Or at least
    my book. The better fish had pulled back off the bedding
    flats, and were holding on the points, leading into the
    spawning flats. There were some males already guarding
    beds, but more were just cruising looking for a quick
    meal before getting down to business. The girls we boated
    were ripe, but still staging, for the most part. I did
    take two nice females heavy with eggs, in shallow
    water, in the back of black bottom bays. Looking for
    a last meal of amphibians, I would guess, before going
    looking for some stud bass. That BPS tube, you sent me
    a few years back, that is now OUT OF PRODUCTION, did the
    damage. I sure am glad I laid a 10 year supply in before
    they dissappeared These fish up here just HATE that
    tube. So, here is a thanks back at you. As for the skirts,
    send me one of you old tattered ones, and I can match it,
    if I can still get the material.
