I didn't mention anywhere that "hearing gunshots" was a concern of mine, but thanks for the reply. Hi All, but admittedly, the thought of bringing my son out where there is potential for gunshots makes me a bit uneasy. Thank you for your feedback! Chris You kind of did.... As a bass fishe...

Did any anybody buy that Bass cat of ken mah yet wasn't that valued at around $108,000 and it was offered for $87,000.00 That was given as a prize boat + cash. Cory Johnston $101,000.00 in the bank Monday morning. And there more that one still for sale. Only Pro I see that fished this tournament Wa...

Did you also notice that the Bassmaster Elites paid a $5000 entry fee... WON Bass is giving away a fully rigged Ranger\Mercury package that is actually more money than the boats they were giving away in the prior years..... Several of the pros you mentioned didn't fish Tosh is recovering from some ...

Big names like Byron Velvick and Ish Monroe, Kyle Grover, Joe Uribe Jr, Greg Gutierrez, & Christian Ostrander and I am sure a few others that have been on the national stage a time or two. WON bass did a great job with the Live Stream, Social Media updates, Video Clips etc... some of the best c...

Who said that ??.....Never seen a post about guys getting off work...

I think his question was not how many boats fished the tournament he was asking why there weren't alot of big name pro's that weren't fishing this tournament. Not sure what big name weekend pro's he is talking about here in ca. I understand that and I commented that "I too notice several of th...

Pretty good showing with 175 boats... 350 guys! I did notice several of the more popular names were missing... seems the rest of our "pro/ams" are drawing 40 to 50 boats and 100 guys... wonder what won is doing to pull the higher numbers..payback with over 100% ?? Maybe the others should b...

I like how stickbait has no dog in the fight but yet is always there.... I guess you’re right…. I do have a dog in this fight…. I would never by a product from this company nor do I want any of my friends or family or fellow bass fishermen to spend their money with a company that has crappy custome...

Does anyone know the individual who runs this nextgen company? They have literally stopped replying to any emails? They used to email back and lie about when it was coming.. but now it’s just silent. Sorry but I am pissed. I have a feeling, and have for awhile, that this is all just some shady game...

stickbait

This has been an ongoing issue for a lot of people. I personally know more than 10 people waiting on replacements. It’s the same answer every time “2 weeks out” “stuck on the ships” “any day” and that’s if you’re lucky to even get a response. Lots of times it’s zero response regarding the issue. Ho...

stickbait

Thank you so much to all the folks that have replied and commenting to defend my position on this. It is beyond frustrating and I really appreciate the support. I would accept a refund on the warranty return, but I have been told that is not an option from the company customer service representativ...

stickbait

Nope, no issue for any customers as none of them left the manufacturing facility which I clearly stated. Beautiful twist though.. Hi Riverguy225, Yes our 36v batteries have been on an extended back order. And yes, back orders suck for all involved. Many of the delays have been unfortunate, for exam...

stickbait

I would ask for a refund in full. That still no excuse for a product to take that long to be restock. The Covid excuse run out over a year half ago. Where I'm scratching my head is the OP has been waiting 10 months...Nextgen doesn't have any batteries in stock ? I mean.....if they had none in stock...

stickbait

How’s the warranty…? Any shipping problems???

Hi Riverguy225, Yes our 36v batteries have been on an extended back order. And yes, back orders suck for all involved. Many of the delays have been unfortunate, for example we had an entire shipment of 36v and 12v cranking batteries pass all of our rigorous testing and inspections but failed the fi...

Thank you everyone for the responses, I’m glad it’s not just me. This has been very frustrating. There have been several people I have talked to off line who say they have had issues with NextGen as well. I would rather it be “just you” having a problem but when I read many many people are having a...

If I had to wait that long…. I would be making a house call….. not good for business for sure!!!! Hope they get u set up soon!

Aahh. I see. So Ish is not only a great angler, but also an excellent business man. Snatch up an easy $5700 and let the big sticks battle it out the following weekend for New Jen. Lol. Not to throw shade on anybody who fished ABA, but if you look at the qualify list for new jen, clearly the big gun...

"The Bilge" is simply one of the best Elite Pro-level podcasts. Trait and Chris bring the good bad and ugly into the conversation, and quite frankly, it's refreshing. The West was lost a long time ago, and the fact that Elite pros say they cant afford to travel tells ya everything you nee...

Since everything is a frick'n secret at this lake I found out the hard way this morning that the lake was closed to boating today. The guy in front of me drove 3 hours one direction for the bad news I only went 6 miles round trip. He towed the boat 6 hours round trip for nothing. Ka-ching costly bu...

It's like anything that is used or ran in saltwater/brackish water ..... a fresh water hose is your friend !!

stickbait

Simple...who ever paid for the permit first the other org needs to move their date for the fishermen that support them.

stickbait

Ok,,,

Is it, scoop, stab, slide or stick the net under water and let fish swim in ???
What's the program in your boat? Most of the time I prefer the gaff. but I'm a slidescooper all the way !

stickbait

Never scoop at a fish. Have the net out. Have net man hold net under water. Swim the fish into the net. Long as net isn’t moving the fish won’t rush. it’s way better than stabbing at a fish. Huh??? Read Fast Eddie's account of his netting attempt! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Oh I read it......

So they admitted that they cannot pay out the money won on this week in the tournament either. Great business plan lol Bass fishermen are a funny bunch....might be a few that buy into it...

Just talked to Wild West and the selling of Wild West is still in escrow. When it’s in escrow no funds can be paid out or transferred. So there it is.
