Yeah I buy a lots on Wish some are free just pay shipping just takes about a month to 5 weeks to come very cheaply made too!!!!
Best thing to do is go you YouTube and watch any and all fishing videos 101 up to pros!!!!
You didn’t say your age but I’m 70 and I tried a hand operated one day and bending over all day killed my back for a week after so I put a foot operated on the boat next time I went great move no back issues also 45 lb really moves the boat well and battery lasts all day!!!!
I’ve been to ponds that I know have bass and had the same luck, if they aren’t hungry or pissed off they’re not gonna bite or even move when you pass, go back there several times before you decide theirs no bass in the pond (good luck)!!!!
Yes! I use swivels all the time I’m forever changing baits so I fish not retire!!!!
