They offered it to me as part of negotiations but I can’t match it to what’s on the web. It’s like $1150. The ones I see are all $2,000 plus Quick question re big open lakes and higher voltage… Well, perhaps the question is that, why for big open lakes My understanding is these trolling...

Big subject short: TX waters, ie lakes. Desire comfort, storage, good price point. Fiberglass? Hull shape? Back in LA Jon Boat all day. Ease of use a huge component with health concerns/easy trailering. Any out there that will allow me to hit the lakes hard and bring home to the flats? ...

A few?? But specifically the Benelli Ultra Light 20 for fun, the A5 20 I’ll wait for prettier stocks & the Colt Python revolver. With the Benelli Ultra Light, I’m having a hard time not grabbing the one on the shelves but I know the little improvements go a long way w Benelli’s in my experience. ...

Shot Show 2024 Arrival to Dealers

Posted by LS(DB)U on 2/13/24 at 8:16 pm
Typically, when do we start seeing guns from Shot Show hit local dealer shelves or online dealers? I'm wanting to purchase a turkey shotgun but not sure they will drop before season. Thanks for the info/past experience....

I’d be interested in learning more about the Bring A Kid Fishing outfit. Fishing is my 12 year old Godson’s passion and it’s truly a gift from above for him. An escape and passion. Thanks for any help. Thanks for donating your rods to people that really need it!...

Does anyone know of a good Coyote taxidermist who specializes in tanning hides & making hats near Lafayette/Baton Rouge area? I used to do my own hides but this takes someone far more trained than I and wish to put all of the animal to good use. Thanks Thank you...

I fly fish a lot. I know our lakes and small bayous with a lot of downed structure is where it would spend a majority of the time but would also love to have an all arounder… I grew up with Jon Boats and a Boston Whaler for the coast. Coastal Marsh for reds every now and then and the rest wou...

I know, don't do it. However, if I do: Center Console is a definite. What is the OB opinion (and tips) for an outdoors expert on land, very little at "sea". I would want something short, small, hybrid hull (like a Mako) and under 30k new or used. Louisiana waters, fly fish (so open decks) and ma...
