It looks the cold temps and the snow are going to keep me off the water for the next few days, so that will give me some much needed time to start gearing up for the rapidly approaching tournament season.  The boat is ordered and I was ecstatic to receive the news this week that am going to be a part of both he Mercury Marine and Northland Tackle Pro Teams this coming year.  My new Starcraft STX 2050 will be powered by Mercury Pro XS 225hp engine. Tomorrow I will be working through the Northland and Off Shore Tackle brochures to get geared up for the Spring Valley MWC and the Fenwick LEWT which are both less than 7 weeks away!
