Which one works best for lakes?

Depends on the lake I'd imagine. I'd get a few colors and find out which one works best for yours.

Use blue and white with the red triple hooks , throw some pink stinky garlic sauce on it and troll, have got hits from all sorts with it.

I usually fish for trout, and i've always had good luck with the silver shad color.

Try to match the color of the lure to the natural forage in the body of water you are fishing

I would go with this. I used both and I liked these better. They have the tops you can hang them also if you want to or have them on the ground. I had a ton of flies coming I into from my neighbor's dogs and this took care if them within 3-4 days. I also like that as the flies fill it up you just put more water on them before having to change it out. This one worked better for me personally.

Great in the water. Have not used in the snow. I do have 3 snow tubes from LLBean and they are great. Highly recommend them. Based on that experience I'd say Big Bertha would work but it is big and heavy and hard to move about. Also the snow tubes have an extra heavy hard rubber/plastic bottom and bumper that protects the inflated tube. Given that I'd say buy a true snow tube.

I used the Z03 yesterday and caught 8 crappie and one cat, but the Z03, as good as spincasters get in my opinion, has the same constraint that all spincasters have---they don't hold much line, so they are not a good saltwater choice, where much more line is usually required than for most freshwater use.

Assuming that you're asking "What motor SHOULD I get?", I have to say "That depends on what you want it to do". Just as you can't expect a car like a Geo-Metro to go from 0-60 in 5 seconds (but rather would need a Corvette for such), getting a motor in the $90-150 range that can only provide 18-25 lbs thrust will move you on a lake fine, but be somewhat slow. The advantage of the cheaper/smaller motor is that it uses less power, so you can have a smaller battery and/or it will last longer. If you want one that can handle a rivers current or move you faster, you may need one with 30-40 lbs thrust range that will cost ~$175-250. Going bigger than that is probably not a good idea since this boat manual says "Max motor weight ~20 lbs" and even the 40 lbs thrust model will likely be 25lbs weight (or at least that's what mine is). If you want to know about name brands, look at reviews to see if there's lots of "Poor quality" ones or such, otherwise many will do a fine job.

I wouldn't suggest using them both together. Personally I would use the Nature 2 alone. They both dissolve metals into the water the nature2 has copper/silver/zinc I believe the floatron is just a copper bar but I'm not real familiar with them. I do know you don't have any staining issues with Nature2 although you still need chlorine with it and generally a little higher than what they recommend it does a great job of lowering the chlorine use and keeping the pool clear and algae free.

I cannot compare to the Weed Eater mentioned, as I do not have it. However the B&D; LSW36 is excellent and I am in my second year of use. Does a great job on sidewalks, two proches I have, two car garage floor and driveway areas. Really clears off debris, unless wet grass and then I am not sure any but an industrial gas blower would move wet grass.

It has a "standard" set of inland lakes. I also bought the Lakemaster map chip for my state. Much more detail for the lake I live on...but with that said, the standard ones are good enough to keep you out of the shallows....

I have fished all day on a a big lake on a windy day with one battery charge. I recommend an Optima battery. Have fun!

This is probably not the best choice. For each 33' of head (vertical lift of water plus restrictions in discharge line) the pump will have to overcome ~15PSI (14.7). The pump has ~ 55 PSI. Additionally these diaphragm pumps don't like any trash that may be sucked up from the lake water. Even if you put a filter, the restriction on the suction side may be too much to overcome. Technically speaking the pump should do it, but it is probably not the best choice. Additionally the pump is for intermittent use, so if you plan on pumping for a while the pump will overheat and shut off. - Good Luck

The answer is it depends on where you intend to go fishing. For lakes with a soft bottom, even an 8 lb anchor will hold. If you plan to go into salt water or where there is significant wind, current, then an anchor with some structure to dig into the bottom would be best - at least 12lb - and with some chain attached to it.

Works great to keep my 50 gallon pond crystal clear with 3 large comet and bog plants. I would recommend using a pond aerator as well.

I would go for Jet-600, since it has more spin and grip to it, however you'll have to control your power shots cause it provides extra bounce. Stage Carbon Pro is good too but it doesn't offer you spin that much. Both are professional paddles.

No problem at all for me. I love it, it has cut everything that I have tried. I even bought another one for our lake house.

Outdoor stuff is tough because of all sun and elements they're exposed to (I used to build ponds and such). It may be marginally effective, but it would probably be high maintenance (filter will clog quickly, pump might get clogged). I'd say give it a shot. If it cleans the water you could always go with a better unit down the road.

I drop shot for Bass with my 550C at Belews Lake in North Carolina in 70-80 feet of water...works great!

I've done a few river runs. I would not take the double down a river, just use it to float on a lake. I would suggest the single for a river run if its a quick flow river.
