same thing i have done my whole life if ems is not on scene get out and help, didn't do all that emergengy first aid for nothing, seconds count to save a life. can't blame your friend in his own judgement he believed that everything was ok -
i went through this many times and your gonna get all kinds of advice. My advice spend the 260 get a st.croix legend tournament strong sensitive and very light can pitch it all day, only thing that comes close is a nrx without the pricetag

-

Upgrading older trolling motor - worth it?
ecmilley replied to MSBruno's topic in General Discussion
the two bow mounts i had worked ok both 56lb replaced due to age have a 28lb transom that leaves something to be desired mind you. my maxxum always get's tangled up with weeds even with the weedless prop but so did the mg which prop you running on the mk most likely the difference think i have a weedless wedge should update to ww2 -
Upgrading older trolling motor - worth it?
ecmilley replied to MSBruno's topic in General Discussion
gonna be tough for both requirements with what you have, there currently isn't ant TM from motorguide or minn-kotta over 55-6 lb with a 12 vts system. what I would suggest is having a couple props for the motor, a 3 bladed machete prop will give you the speed and they have a smaller diameter 4 blade for chopping up the weeds. Some advice i can give you is to sharpen the leading edges of your current prop, you won't believe the difference a sharp plastic prop can make in chewing through weeds and trust me i take my boat place other's just won't follow. old t.m on my ranger was a MG I liked it it worked well enough and was a little on the noisy side after bouncing it off a dock i replaced it with a maxxum minn kota, quiet decent power cuts through weeds good amazing battery life, downfalls, lost 2mph top end motor way heavier than motorguide and have had some electrical issues like failed armature and burned brushes. overall though good motor. on another of my partners Rangers' we put a newer motorguide digital on it 84lb er, new one's really work nice, it's light no need for lift assist gimmicks, great battery life, and one of the things motorguides were known of old for were overheating/shorting out circuit boards when they were in the foot pedal, electronics now housed in lower unit greatly increasing it's life. In the end it will really be up to you which brand you choose i wouldn't hesitate on either after spending timie with both major brands -
New ice fishing case by Ice Fishing Innovations
ecmilley replied to e-z-out's topic in General Discussion
had a ugly stik ice rod, that thing was indestructable ran it over with the sled couple times still never broke, wasn't the most sensitive though. that case looks awesome think you may of cost me near 300 bones been using one of those ht rod bags good for the closet but not so much travelling around -
passports it is then, thanks guys never know who to believe, since i got champlain on hot maps it's a good enough excuse to go
-
Not sure have been told i need a passport or a new drivers license, if time allows want to go to lake champlain this year for pre-spawn buckets
-
found myself without ant appointments friday afternood, decided to hit some ice on sturgeon, drilled around 10 holes before locating fish and kept 8 nice one for the frying pan. small spoons with minnows and a drop shot and minnow rig tie to a tip up were both productive as well a plain 1/8 oz jig, using mostly TJ's spoons and jigs good producers really like the red/white jig head. been nice having the lake to myself
-
you mean the one above the spare tire? fairly common issue with all the salt calcium on the roads.
-
try seafoam as randy said to clean it up. several days ago you posted about a light issue on the truck, did you resolve it? were you playing with any wires under the truck, it is possible that a ground could have been disturbed that's tied into the fuel pump, also were all guessing it's fuel related also possible crank/cam sensor is dropping out checked for schaffed wires in engine compartment. or just make make life easier get a gmc
-
of the last 30 perch i've cleaned only one had white grub in them, and can't buy a crappie on sturgeon so far, gonna get out sunday have 3-4 more spots to check may find them yet!
-
had the lake all to myself all winter no one bothering with this area the lake, managed to find to nice weeds located in 7-9 ft of water and have been having great success moving through weeds to find the fish. some days they want set lines and minnows other days flashy spoons Thanks T.j red/white jig tipped with minnow has been deadly and taken a large number of fish on that purple flutter spoon
-
also seen that with brook trout, white flesh always filled with minnows and orange flesh usually freshwater shrimp and other shelled thingy's ate a 7-8 lb trout out of chando's few years ago white flesh tasted like a old boot guess it ate herring, same as quinte walters eating shad greasy and pretty much tasteless
-
mmmmmmmm smoked trout
