      Tracker Boats

      Anyone know the best (most active) Tracker boat forum? I think there are several, but I need one that is very active. I just picked up a 2012 Tracker Pro Guide V-175 WT and want to find some good advice and information as I set it up and equip it for my preferred types of fishing. Thanks!

      Anyone know a locksmith in the west side of Indy area that would have a decent price for a replacement key fob?

      Fontana Lake Questions

      I'm looking at renting a house near Fontana Lake in NC. I plan to fish quite a bit but also my kids want to tube and swim during the day. Is this lake warm enough in early July to enjoy swimming or does it stay pretty cool due to the mountain streams feeding it? Also, what kind of fishing is...

      Vacation Rental Recommendation

      I'm planning to take my kids to a rental cabin or house this summer, either the last week in June or the first week in July. I have a small beagle, so it has to be pet friendly. I'd like either a lake house/cabin with a dock for my fishing boat. We like to fish and tube, so the lake must...

      Does DNR Monitor VHF (Marine) Channel 16?

      Do Conservation officers monitor that channel when out on lakes and reserviors in Indiana? I'm picking up a VHF Marine hand-held for my boat, as I intend to put it on the Ohio River at some point. But I'm wondering if it has much, if any, use on lakes and reserviors. I've seen a couple...

      Any Hendricks Co. Gun Stores with CCI Mini Mag or Aguila .22 LR Ammo?

      Any with these in stock? My favorite stores are Fort Liberty, Copperhead Ridge, Plainfield Shooting Supplies, and Lizton Trading Post. Also, does Rural King carry any of these? I've ordered some online but would love to have a local source. I've gotta feed my LCP II .22LR some good ammo. Thx!

      Ruger LCP II .22 Problems

      I picked up 2 LCPs yesterday and one is flawless and the other is a hot mess. Sadly, the hot mess is the more fun gun to shoot. It's the .22lr version of the LCP II. The .380 LCP Max popped off its first 50 rounds without a hiccup. I guess if one was going to struggle it is better to be the...

      Anyone See a New Marlin/Ruger 1895 (.45-70) in the Wild?

      I've got a Marlin 1895 and it's great. Never an issue and a good example in terms of fit/finish and it's a great shooter. BUT, that new Ruger made Marlin has caught my fancy. I was just wondering if anyone has seen one on the shelf at a gun store yet. I really don't need one. BUT..... :cool:

      Men's Warehouse vs. Joseph A. Bank--Opinions?

      The last couple times I've bought suits, I went to Joseph A Bank. Previously, I bought from Men's Warehouse. The Jos A Bank suits were of better quality (better, thicker cloth and they last longer). So I saw today that the Jos A Bank in Plainfield is permanently closed. I don't really want...
