What's the 101?? Is that a code name or sumpin?

I cant speak for whats best but i have it in 5 foot lengths, one for each side on 25 foot of rope. Am gonna get 2 more 5 foot lengths to add to them when needed but it was whitecapping pretty good Saturday and I was only moving .3 MPH with the trolling motor off. One thing to keep in mind, BIG chain will hang easier too.

I don't have a clue!! I thought it was a code name Fer the Asstro or sumpin. Since I know now I'm gonna call mine "the 54". Sounds cool as a fan to me. Thanks bud.

I ain't got the money to have such a vessel as you Rees. Mabey one day I will but I really don't appreciate the insult. I have been banned for far less.

I am not tryin to step on any toes or stir any pot, but there Aint no way I would rather run my trollin motor to have to move when I can just drop 1 or 2 socks and just sit back and watch the poles go down, that being said me and Feesh dont have no terrova or nuttin, but If a terrova makes you catch that many more fesh, If I ever buy one I might otta go ahead and buy another deep freezer also. Gonna keep on runnin my 13 yr old 24 volt MG till it blows up. Feesh has got a set of chains if we ever need them but we use them as weight in the front of his boat to hold it down, when we fish in my boat I just pump the big livewell in the front of my boat full of water to hold it down. Works for us.
