Quite a few things I would imagine.

Aren't you fishing IFA? You get to sleep in your bed and trailer to your favorite ramp for less than the entry fee for IFA - right?

You made enough money last year fishing to sponsor two teams this year - http://www.redtroutshootout.com/results.html

Pay your money and quit bitching :lol: :lol:

$300 is a lot of money for those of us on the low end of the working world totem pole...even if we do win it back a lot of time. 8)

I guess I need to get me one of those high paying military jobs! Can you float a brother a loan???? :beer: :beer:

It is only $200 without the side pots.
Think small.

High paying :smt005 :smt005 That is why I buy used boats - cause of all the money - I don't have :x

Didn't you just buy a new boat? Where's the pics - lets see it.

Haven't fished shallow a whole bunch but never caught one of them red trout, only the ones with spots. Guess you have to fish JT's super secret holes to find 'em.

Brian there are a lot of 16' poling skiffs that fetch way more than that. Check out the price tag on an HB.

I just don't see how you put enough stuff on a 16' boat that'll drive it to that price.

Oh, I'm aware of new boat costs. I just thought the generic reference to a 16' skiff was a little weird.

Thanks for the link Creech!
