Just a plain jane Sun Tracker 18ft Bass Buggy with a merc 60ct. Going to be just right for us, will spend some time getting it rigged with a Raymarine Dragonfly Pro 7 and a Minn Kota 68# trollmotor and a modest sound system. Other various goodies. I think if I go with a 55# 12v troll i"ll find myself wishing I had gone 24v. Any tips tricks are appreciated. I would like to catch some of the spring striper and hybrid bite here in central Texas.

We are at Cranes Mill Marina. I will be heading out to fish also. My last four times I have caught nothing! Committed to using lures. Of course, I don't need to eat them. Ha!
