At only 10 lbs., the Totally Portable TailGator® sports a 24cc 2-stroke engine which generates enough torque to whip up a pitcher of your favorite frozen beverage in just about 15 seconds. Its 60 oz. plastic pitcher is light-weight and detachable for easy pouring and clean-up. Now, could making girlie drinks be any more manly?

Won't the exhaust noise overpower the volume of his TV & bite alarms?

I saw one of those in Cabela's last year Newt. Made me laugh out loud.If the yanks can find a way of burning fossil fuels, they will!

BTW, I went out to meet up with my friend in Philadelphia last weekend, we drove out to Candlewood Lake in Connecticut to fish a 2 day tournament with his bass club. Had a great time, He had just bought a new truck and boat, and I was there to help him christen them.
He'd had the skunk monkey in residence so far this year, and I had to help him evict the little devil. After a thorough search for bananas we headed off and I pretty soon had a 5lb small and large in virtually succesive casts, followed by 4 other fish to finish off the pre-fishing afternoon.
Come the days of the tournament though, I had a bad run of luck and while Luke has nice limits each day I could only manage 3 and then 1 fish in the boat, still Luke got 3rd place, so a bit of money, but most importantly, the skunk monkey had been shown the door permanently (despite other members of the club repeatedly trying to sneak bananas into one of the storage lockers at breakfast time!).
Oh yeah, and his Nissan Titan is "awesome" as they say, and the Avalanche did an eyewatering 59.5mph according to my GPS with its 150 engine. Bugs hurt at that speed. I told him he was a tightwad not getting another little windscreen for his partner, but he didn't seem to care?

Hello, my name is Tim and I'm a Yankophile.

Mmmmm....does that-there satteelight dealie work with fish-finders, Pete? You could avoid your watercraft from the comfort of your rocking chair, mate!

Tim - sounds like you had a good time anyway.

The concentration it takes to fling lures all day when things are slow while knowing a win or lose may depend on putting a hook into a single hit can get a little wearing, can't it?

What part of the lake?

Hi Newt

In a 60mph boat you can certainly fish a lot of spots! We launched at orange and caught fish in the blue spots.



That kind of wearing I can live with! Had to endure another day of torture on Saturday, caught 3 perch, an allis shad and a 12lb salmon on a 3" grub and a trout and 4 more shad on a mepps #3. Torture me some more please, I think I like it!
