I went to west river yesterday.I have been avoiding the placed since I nearly drowned there a few years ago, but heres how it went. I got to Naples, and the road to the launch was closed, skated around the barrier to let local traffic through, got to the launch alright. I untrailered the boat, the motor wouldn't start, so I tried to drop the trolling motor and the release system busted on the trolling motor. I used a battery hold down bolt out of the car to lock the trolling motor from swinging freely in the bracket as it did when stepping on the pedal.Got out in the creek I caught a 3 lber on the third flip to a stump.I caught 4 more decent fish within 30 feet from the first fish and these 2 idiots in a Triton powered down to where I was and told me that stretch was their spot, I told them Bullsh!t, but go ahead, but your not going to catch sh!t anyways if they haven't caught any by now.I tried to start the motor and nothing but clicking noise where I ran the battery down trying to start it earlier.I ran the trolling motor on high up to where they were and started catching fish where they couldn't. A guy in a Ranger trolled over and asked me what the hell kind of bait I was using and I showed him, gave him a few of the baby paca craws, because he didn't have any.He started catching fish and we went up through I fished the right side behind his boat as he fished the left side .I had to dig in the tackle pack to get more paca craws, while the guy held the 2 boats together. The triton idiots powered by us and dropped the trolling motor 10 ft in front of our boats and began fishing. I gave him 2 more packs of baits and told him I am going down where I started from and he said he would follow me .I explained my motor wouldn't start and so he towed me back. we went through what baits I had left and as he was getting my rope cleated off to tow me back in to the launch, I hit the key and the damned motor started right up. We exchanged names and phone numbers to fish another day. There is something to the paca craw design when you have slow current, I used a 1/16 oz. tungstun weight on 17 lb mono line.I got side tracked , but does Larry have the baits made , or doesn't he own netbait. baits ? The second question is have you ever seen them offered in a 25, 50 , or 100 pack ? P N J
