Tubejig

Nice rig. Been thinking of getting one for the river.

The looks might take a tad more time than most, for me!! Hope it takes less time to get the kinks worked out. Been there--done that. Bought a new Ficht. Hard lesson learnt about buying the latest-greatest. Uglier than homemade sin LOL

Try a bobber stopper above the weight. Slide it down against the weight. Cheap, easy and works.

My brother has PolarKfraft. No issues and he's had it and used it a lot over the past several years. I'm kicking around the idea of a flat bottom for the river. I'd also prefer welded over rivets. But I would not hesitate to have PolarKraft as they seem to be high quality.

I'd go new. Warranty is/could gonna save money and peace of mind. I've had several boats. Spent a bunch of money on them too. have had 2 Rangers. Great boats. I've heard good things about Triton, too. New and get extended warranty on engine and good to go for several years. My 2 cents

I like to fish jigs too. Thought the video was very informative. I don't have time to do this but maybe someday I will try it.

Nice informative vid. Seen it before and will likely view it again. I really like it if he talk a bit southern LOL

Seems like a nice boat for the price. There's probably a lot of people who can pony up $1,000 for down payment and manage small payments that would be happy with this boat. I can remember when I'd be lucky to scrape that together. Family guy with mouths to feed and trying to keep a roof over their head might see this boat as a way to take his children fishing. New boat with warranty at this price....... BPS/Cabela's will make their margins on the boat. Never met a successful business owner whose business model didn't include good margins. A loss leader isn't going to retail at 10K.

Nice bug boat! I have 2013 FX21 and love it. 250 SHO and I do not miss buying 2 stroke oil!!

Congrats to winners and to all of you that fished in that weather

Congrats! Like to meet you guys sometime, maybe next year.

Partner had a death in family. Won't fish this one

I'd like to fish Black Friday. Besides showing up, what do I need to know?

Thanks. Glad you like the ALX Rods. I really like the customer service from a small family owned business. Rex does have a good sampling and can order any rod from the offerings. If anyone here would like to see a few rods, let me know. I've got a few and glad to let folks look them over. 31-old friend- I hope we get to fish together and catch a few soon.

Rattle traps or a reasonable facsimile of such.
