Nylon Nitro Boat Trailer Glide On


About a month ago I installed E-Z Slide Trailer Pads from Bass pro Shops. These really make it easy to launch and load your boat. Before I had these installed I would need to speed up when putting the boat onto the trailer. With these installed now I can ease up on the trailer and and it slides right one. Although I almost lost the boat onto the ground, the boat ramp was very steep. With these installed the boat will slide right off.

Just Plain Lucky

About 2 weeks ago when we were fishing at our hot spot on the Tennessee river I was fishing with a Bomber Crankbait and ended up getting hung on a tree. I yanked and pulled for nearly 5 minutes until I finally admitted defeat and cut the line. 2 weeks later Darren and I returned to our spot and we had been fishing for a couple of minutes and Darren said "What's that floating in the water? It looks like a lure." I looked over to where he was pointing and sure enough my crankbait was floating in the water. Somehow the current must have worked it loose, and the line somehow tied itself around the log because it was just sitting there not moving. I pulled out my knife and cut it loose. It was dirty and the hooks were rusted but I'm sure I'll be able to clean it somehow.
