    I’ll have to watch the one from today. You are right about him making it look easy.

    if you are into YouTube watch Tom Boley as he just put out a video in the last couple of days of him pulling spinners.
    There is also a video from 9-10 days ago where he was drop shotting and catching Walleye.
    Good Luck

    Sorry for your loss. It’s tough to say goodbye to your family member, friend and companion.

    I wouldn’t hesitate to buy the Competitor tiller.
    My boat is a ’94 competitor 170 Tiller with a 60 h.p.4S Yamaha. It is 16’4″ long, so it is similar to your future boat, however mine has a max h.p.rating of 60.
    I fish a lot of the big lakes in Minnesota like Mille Lacs, Leech, and Winnie and it handles all of those very well.
    As far a trolling, mine with troll down to about 2 mph depending on conditions.
    Love my boat.
    Ron.

    You could pose that question in the Garmnin Sonar/GPS section on bbcboards.net. They have some very knowledgeable Garmin people there.

    Tom, I’ve used the Jawz traps on mice on a few occasions and like you, I am a big fan of them.

    I believe the H.P.on any of the manufacturers that have high output motors
    cab be as much as 9% more H.P. than what is stated.

    The newer Lakemaster chips do not work in Garmin units, as the newer chips are made for Humminbird.
    I however have a chip I bought back in ’08 that was a the time compatible with Garmins hand held units. Two years ago I needed a new hand help unit, and was able to buy new one that the Chip works in.

    No.
    As others have stated, if you don’t like a post don’t read it.
    Also agree with Randy about a Sub folder.

    I also have a 16 foot tin boat with a roller trailer.
    The launch access plays a big part in how deep you back the trailer in.
    Normally I back in so the back of my trailer fenders are in the water. I usually don’t go deeper as this way I can push my boat off the trailer. If there is dock access that makes things a lot easier as you can back your trailer in just as deep when pulling out the boat. I’m not big into power loading as I like to winch my boat up by hand.

    Sounds like a great hunt, with a couple very nice birds.

    That looks and sounds good.
    I just finished a batch that I made a few days ago. It’s great comfort food

    I owned two Olds 442’s back in the day. My first was a used ’66 442, with a 400 c.i. and 2 speed automatic transmission.
    My second was a brand ’70 with a 455 c.i., 4 speed manual, along with functioning hood scoops. It was forset green in color, with the scoops being white. I used to take it to the track and won my share of trophies running pure stock. It also served me well when I did a little street racing.
    Unfortunately, I never had pics taken of the car. Pics would certainly be nice to have today.

    I had never fished much for crappies until 11-12 years ago. A good friend invited me to go ice fishing and the rest is history as they say.
    About a year later I started fishing them open water with a couple of friends, and now we take a few day trips each year.
    Along the way we have refined our techniques and patterns thanks to fishing shows and youtube videos.
    So, I want to thank all my friends that I have fished with. I know we have gained knowledge from each other for both Crappie and Walleye.

    FryDog, I wish your wife and son a full recovery.
    I know a couple that have had/have lymes, and know it is a tough recovery.
    One of my best friends had Lymes and never fully recovered.

    When I was a kid we had a large wildlife area across the street from us.
    One day when I was back there I found a bunch of Elderberry bushes that had ripe berrys on them. I told mom about them and she said if I picked them she would make a pie out of them.
    We’ll, to this day I still think that was the best pie I ever had.

    I’m heading to Lake of the Woods tomorrow. So I’ll get my last ice fishing
    trip in for the season.
    The friend that I am going with called and wanted to know if we were still going. You can bet I told him that we were still on.
