Hey Justin, how are you doing? good to hear from you. Thor-boats do rule, I really like my new one, I think it is exactly like yours. The one I call ice pick and have heard other people call ice pick is the one that is silver with with the real sharp looking blue herring bone on it. I always take off the front treble as well and put the next size up on the back. seems to work good, casting or back trolling. Good luck, also heard there is a bunch of fish in the chehalis at the mouth of the satsop. Peace Superfly
