What size rod would you recommend for a bait casting setup for using the swim jig? I just recently picked up a kayak and will also be fishing out of one!

I’ve been using 3M VHB double sided foam tape for decades now. Consider that as an option, I used it to attach my 12’ cherry bar rail to the granite bar when my fabricator didn’t route the correct profile on the front edge. That was in 2006, no issues at all with it. I’ve also used it all over our travel trailers.

I live in big bass heaven, Northeast Texas. About 95% of my fishing is done at night. Three tips I have, that I have proven that works at night are, you mentioned the first one. 1)- rattles 2)- scent. I like the chartreuse garlic dip-N-glow, or smelly jelly. 3)-now this one is my own secret, and that is Alcaselzer. Whether a hollow bodied frog, or a hollow crawworm. I just break off a small piece, stick it in the hollow spot of the crawworm, then insert the hook at the end of the crawworm, trapping the Alcaselzer inside. It is usually good for about 3-5 cast.

It is half a san diego jam knot . Same way i tie my san diego jam although double the line thru the eye . But i tie it pretty fast and use that same action spinning the lure around 6 times . Although the san diego jam is much tougher to cinch and clip

I love everything about the 208 except the "ride" screen system. If this rig had regurlar analog gauges, i would love it even more. Having a screen there is just asking for issues for me personally. I'd break it somehow. Plus, i wonder how that screen can handle the sun beating on it all the time?? If the aluminum holds up structural wise, this is a perfect rig. Some of the tin rigs with big HP engines are slowly tearing apart from the stress. If ranger has this perfected, then tjis is a dream boat for me.
@jameslovelace8958 3 ай бұрын
With the Lowrance on the console and vessel view on the engine you can have those gauges on the depth finder. I have that on mine and I love it.
@NCshooter1213 3 ай бұрын
@jameslovelace8958 that's true. Running vessel view on the lowrance solves that issue for sure. I can't help myself I don't trust those screen thr newer boats are coming with. I'm the type of guy that if I buy a new boat I plan to keep it 20 years. That's the only reason I think about that type of stuff. My 98 champion 203 is going strong but if something major ever happens to it the boat your showcasing would be my choice

My RT198 (Mercury XS Pro150 )has just as good of a hole shot. My RT198 with a tournament load, full tank of gas, and 2 people will run 50 mph without putting a strain on the engine. Based on your video, that boat probably runs and rides better between 55-60mph. The boat really doesn't do anything for me that I would considering buying. My Rt198 is now 4 plus years old and has never had an one issue with it. Just about all the new boats manufactured in the last 2-3 years are just built cheaper and with less Quality Control. I also fish tournaments and her other boat owner's complain about their new boats and wished they kept their old boats. When the time comes, I will buy a used boat that was well maintained, before I purchase a new boat. Best of luck with it!

I have a 198P also, but the layout of the 208 looks to have a much wider deck. I have enough deck length with the 198, but it feels cramped and narrow at times. I agree the 198 is plenty fast enough for where I fish.
@notsogood6249 3 ай бұрын
@@stevedennison4438 I agree the deck is a little wider but not by much, for me to spend 70K plus (rigged out) to just go to a little wider deck and a little faster boat, especially with gas prices today. Ranger boats are just trying to compete with Xpress boats. I have owed several fiberglass boats in the past and I don't plan on getting rid of my RT198P. Still runs great, looks good, and has enough speed for me.😁
