Hey everyone names Eric jones new to fishing an boating just picked up a 12ft Jon boat turned bass boat hope to learn more as I go along with you all


What going on??? Just signed up!! Looking forward to it. Come follow us a Father/Son and some times daughter :) Team on instagram @dumoreoutdoors


Going to start cutting Sunday. Eva foam will be here next week. I’m going to put the insulation under it like some of you guys suggested . BUT NOW IT’S TIME TO GO MAKE THE TOP TEN AT LAKE HARTWELL BFL!!! LET’S GO!!!!
How's it going everyone? I'm Will Davis. New to the community and look foward to gaining knowledge on fishing and helping anyone I can with the knowledge I have.


Hey SUF! If money were no object, I would make this purchase. UPDATE: I will pass on this boat; it is a fantastic deal! If you are interested, let me know, and I will put you in contact with the dealer.
Currently running: 2009 Stratos 294XL (19'6", 91" beam) with 2009 Evinrude ETEC 150HO flashed to 175HP on a single axle trailer. The boat's paid off and tournament-ready.
Considering: New leftover 2023 Falcon F215 (21'5", 99" beam) with Suzuki 250SS brand new
- Dealer asking $53K
- Monthly would be $580-680 (versus $0 on Stratos)
- Interest rates are around 7-10%
- Trade-in value on Stratos: $12-20K
Main pros: Wider deck, more power, bigger fuel tank (50 gal)
Main cons: A Higher payment than wanted, 7-10% interest rate
Would you pull the trigger or keep the paid-off Stratos? I'm especially interested in tournament performance difference, newer age, and whether the wider deck is worth the monthly payment. BTW, a Stratos re-power would be $23-24K. One major sway factor - I hate debt.
Thanks for any insights!


here is my schedule for this season. the yellow highlighted are the The Bass Federation tournaments which i plan to spend most of my time. some new waters i have never seen. i hope everyone will help with pre game and post game. appreciate any help given. Happy Hump Day
It’s ok to cry when you lose one of your favorite crankbaits, right? Asking for a less manly friend….






Got a few things done today. Next I have to put the new trolling motor on.


Locked and loaded ready for a stop number 2 BFL South Carolina division at lake Hartwell
