AKRISONER

we are in need of a bank charger for the alumacraft. So...as such what do you guys have in the boat? What are you experiences with them?

great report mike, thanks for posting, and holy crap impressive breaking 5 that many times in one trip. Right on.

unreal bill...im still waiting for my first chunky one from that neck of the woods. Glad to see everything worked out with the unit as well! Im still actively shopping for an upgrade on the graph for the front of my boat as well! The muskys have indeed been active, I caught one two weeks ago (not nearly this huge) and saw multiple surfacing this past weekend while trolling eyes...Pops also slapped a 40+ inch pike this past weekend. I think the mild summer has got the big fish frisky.

to top it off buddy was purposely hiding his over limit walleye in another location of his boat. Friggin dink I think the even bigger problem here is that these dinks do this, get caught and only get a 1,500 dollar fine? Im gonna go drive 200kmh on the 401 what kind of trouble I would be in? Your car gets impounded, your license gets suspended and you get between a 2-10 thousand dollar fine. We need to toughen up the regs on these bum holes...With how little enforcement exists out there, the penalties need to be much much more severe. Their fishing licenses should 100% be suspended for a very long extended period, heck suspend their boating license as well. The fines need to increase as well.

stayed at pigeon lake resort last october...place was legit, dunno about pricing? but had everything you could ever need and the musky fishing right in front of the resort is bar none.

I only paid 5 grand more for the eco? and resale on diesels is way way way higher than gassers...

not to mention when diesel is cheaper than gas a lot of the time Did a 14 hour drive down to Alabama in the spring, total fuel cost was absolutely stupid...i think we filled up twice? $200 bucks between 3 people, and then we camped? I literally drove and then stayed in alabama for 4 days for less than $100 lol

a lot of this has to do with variable valve timing and the 8 speed transmissions they are throwing in rams. The eco diesel 8 speed just gets ridiculous mileage. it gets a quarter better mileage than my 2.0 litre in line 4 banger protege! that car was stripped down like crazy too weighed around 2,000lbs!

yes sometimes, but it has actually reduced my number of hook ups...sounds ridiculous but i notice a difference for sure.

This... i literally used 1 single yum dinger for an entire weekend and caught over 15 fish on one worm. Its true the yamasenkos have that ridiculous wobble, but i get p-oed when i cast and they rip in half.

you dont say???!!!! i was asking about imperial vs US gallons...see how stupid that system is...not only do 128 ounces make a gallon...we have two types of gallons? whatever idiot came up with this garbage needs to be shot. How about 1000 mililiters is a litre, 1000 litres of water is a cubic meter of water, a cubic meter of water weighs one ton...H20 freezes at 0 and boils at 100...nah...this is all too confusing lolllll

ahhhh fisherman, youve got the eco diesel just like me...now i understand. I thought you guys were all saying you were getting that mileage on V8 half tons...which would be a lie...i believe you 100% When i was driving down to alabama we were getting 8.2 going 110 as well. 25mpg in a tundra is total lieesss Eco diesel team representing those low mileage ratings! been loving the fact that diesel has been 10cents per litre cheaper around where i live too! ha ha!

im sorry but seriously, how in the heck can you guys claim to be getting an average 8.x litres or even 7.something litres per 100 in a v8 half ton...i call Bull you may be hitting those for a second? but lets talk long term averages mixing city and highway. Something doesn't add up here? You cant even get 7L/100 in a friggin naturally aspirated 4 banger sedan..you think you can pull that off in a truck? you can make all the claims about efficiency you want but science is science and something is fishy lol For the sake of the fact that we are indeed canadian, can we agree to speak in Litres per 100k. the metric system is nice like that. Not to mention, are we talking US gallons or imperial...like forget that garbage...lets talk in a language that actually makes sense...AKA canadian english.

jesus that is ridiculously bad i get 30 lol! or 25 US whatever you use...the truck reads in Litres per 100...i average about 9.2

im driving a 2016 eco diesel and i friggin love it so far...better looking than the ford, drives better than the ford and gets stupid mileage. Ya if i could afford a GMC id buy one...but who has 100k for a truck?

im using a g loomis GL2 jig n worm 7 footer with a Shimano Ci4. Fast tip as i dont think you need extra fast for wacky, its not like drop shotting where you need that power right off of the hit..usually i like to let the bass eat the worm for a sec before setting the hook meanwhile while you are drop shotting especially deep, your hook sets are a lot shorter and can be required immediately if you get a good tug. I prefer to rig my whack rigs weightless using a gamakatsu whacky hook...they just seem to hold up better than anything, especially the wire. I pick apart pockets and edges, the bass cant seem to resist that slow wiggling fall.

gotta love how simple it can sometimes be. proof that it doesnt take a heck of a lot to just get out there and get fishing. Thanks for the report and to many more personal best fish to you guys!

still the best clamp on out there IMO https://www.sail.ca/en/down-east-salty-rod-holder-down-east-409858 hits muskys going 4.5mph and doesnt even budge

you can go ahead and send 300 people on a wild goose chase 2 days into the bush to try find some lake like a needle in a hay stack...at best 1 will find it...who cares

mike has now got his own thread on the US bass boats forum and was featured in the conservative tribune! http://conservativetribune.com/man-refused-to-locate-fishing-hole/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=WesternJournalism&utm_content=2017-08-08&utm_campaign=manualpost As grimsby said, you hope this exposure makes it all worth it for the headache that mike is dealing with.

my flight to yellowknife is already booked...got a great deal on airfaire...maybe an OFC group buy??? shows how much I know! although, i swear to god ive used a regular hose to level something before with my dad (old farmer trick) although im sure 100% accuracy was also not a requirement.

ive been creeping this thread for years but have never commented and I dont know why. Its perhaps one of my favourites though. keep up the good work! i still remember when you were leveling your foundation posts using a water hose!

Amen hahaha people will read things how they want them to be read, that also means they will change your very own words to make it say what they think they want you to say. It was pretty clear that you were pointing out that this guy eats all the musky that he catches regardless of size and legality.
