m.t. - I'm not going to invest in Bump sticks this year.I'm going to buy some decent/good measuring sticks (24") and make a bump stick.Hek of alot cheaper than buying alum bump sticks for every boat!

Yea - I agree a bullet or football Bass can make a huge differance in weight.

I've got a couple of tackle shops in mind for next year that might kick in some tackle or gift cert.
