new ride, watch out crappie

got me a new ride this week just in time for the spawn.Thanks to score for giving me the heads up on the boat. Had a blown motor so I swapped my honda out on it,and put on my I pilot and rod holders. Still have some work here and there but are boats really ever done? TNT whats the name of that stuff you used on your boat? the gel coat on this boat is in good shape but could use a little brightening. going to try it out tomorrow and see how everything is working on it. Plan to troll a new color grub a made up that just hammered them last week when I went out with score.

Nice boat Keith, just in time for the spawn, I know you will enjoy it. Jimmy S.:)

Very nice boat Keith, i like the way you have it rigged. like the jigs also. See you guys soon :)

come on over to lanier one day DI if you run out of slabs on the hill

Now that you got a ride again, I guess I need to put an add out for a new fishing partner.:rolleyes: I'm happy for ya buddy.

watch that throdle sticking on that honda.lol

nice deal you go there. speaking of the the top jig, that is similar to a jig i use alot that bass pro makes except its not a curly tail. its my all time favorite. its called squirmen squirts and the color is watermelon green, red snowflake.

Good looking Grubs would be nice to get out for a while and catch a bunch of slabs, but I've done my part of catching and had my day so you young folks go and enjoy it while you can. I've got better things to do this spring like enjoying the best Gift God ever gave me.

nice ride keith when you goin to take me for a ride btw i got a anser yesterday about the cnc ill pm later

sure, come on up. bite should be wide open in a couple of weeks

You are going to love the way that boat fishes. It looks just like the one I had and it fished great, fast too. I sold it to smitty couple of years ago and he's still fishing it. Sets deep in the water and the wind didn't blow it around to bad. mine was 14' with a 50 yamaha and it wou8ld scoot, cheap on gas too. Good looking boat, hope you enjoy it.

Yep, I think your gonna like fishing from that new crappie machine. I really like those grubs too. Congrats on both.

congrats on the the boat keith! from the pics it looks great. hopefully next weekend i'll see you and wes on the lake in your boat.

Thanks Bobby, are you still coming by the tourney on sat. I have your stuff ready and can bring it or mail it if you want

I think you'll like your boat Keith. Those boats were built well and fish good also. I loved the one Schief bought from me. The stuff I used was Poli-Glo, but I ain't formed an reliable opinion of it yet. The part of the boat that was in good shape and not oxidized is still looking nice and shiny, but the top edge isn't looking as good as it did when I first put the Poli-Glo on. Sorta faded and milky looking now. I am thinking that maybe I did not prep it correctly, so after this fishing season, I am going to wet sand it and get it down to the original finish. I was going to gelcoat it, but I think I am going to put Poli-Glo to the true test. I guess it will be this summer before I can form an honest and reliable opinion about it.

when is the tourney if it's this sat. i can't make it familly stuff to do. just drop it on the mail. let me know how ya'll do in the tourney.
thanks

Good looking boat! Where did you get those jigs. Look good to.

Thanks Budman, I make jigs and plastics

Keith...nice looking boat AND jigs.;) Looks like youre rigged out & ready for the weekend too.;):)

Wow nice ride as well Keith, good to see everyone and everything is going well.

I followed the instructions in this post and my boat shines like a new one. Lots of work but it is worth it.
