Drop shotting is one of the most successful techniques for many types of fish. Its even used in salt water applications. you can use plastics, dead and/or live bait. Another Bass technique I will be trying for 'eyes this spring is shaky head. inject a bit of air in a big crawler and bounce it along the bottom.. Super finesse technique that just has to work.

With all the Boats and RV's firing up for the summer there's no doubt why the fuel prices go up every spring.

Hey bud, most of this kind of hardware is made by one or two manufacturers (Perko comes to mind). If you can find the brand and model number, call Marine Outfitters in Kingston. They should be able to order it and they have reasonable prices.

This shows how the surrounding sand rubs on the gel-coat but the keel guard protects the pointed edge of the keel as it moves over and into the ground.

This is the one I have and I beach the boat all the time. You never know what's lurking under the sand.. Ranger Factory install

Just do a search for it on uTube, its there.

Not sure about the coverage he has but Ranger bass boats are like insuring Ferrari's. I have a '15 Ranger 620fs (multi species) and it runs me about 1200/year full replacement value and 10k in contents. Compare that to a 100k sports car? That will run north of 2K/yr.

I did.

Excellent to deal with. Call them if you don't see what you need in their online catalogue and they'll try and find it.

Check out the walleye central forums. There's one for canada and its frequented by Americans that travel to Ontario all the time. Tons of advise on outfitters w/American plan offerings. Lac Soul is a popular destination for trophy fish. They may also have recommendations for northers Manitoba and Saskatchewan outfitters because these provinces are world famous for trophy pike.

And they love perch patterns for some reason...

That's a good point. Baitcasters are many times more complex than spinning reels which means you have to spend a bit more to get something in the middle of the bell curve. Curado yes, Tatula yes... I have a Tatula type R that I just love and it works in all kinds of senarios (and looks better doing it than the shimano...lol).

As previously mentioned, your application would help us with a recommendation. Also, as previously mentioned there's really no 'bad braid" out there. The only one I really didn't like was PP super slick as I found it would dig in on the spool which made casting problematic. Generally, I use plain old Power Pro Green (spectra) for everything from Bass to Muskie. Its the benchmark/industry standard braid and can usually be found on sale. Also, the mono backing idea is a great way to save a few $$. Another option is that you put on a full spool of braid and after a few seasons you run it off onto another reel so the unused portion is now on the outside of the spool. For mono backing, Berkley big game is an economic choice.

you dont' lubricate the belt. Keep the shaft clean and spray it with a silicone lube from time to time. The Gen 1 issues were around the position sensors. If you ever end up needing repair, the only place to go in southern ont is Rocky's in Orillia. I had a very bad "Minn Kota" experience at Aikmans.

I've owned several different MKs over the last 5 years so based on that, here are my comments: Don't limit yourself on features, you will grow into them. I would never buy a bow mount w/o a transducer for example. Although the Ulterra is pretty slick and safer to deploy, because you travel as far as Nip, I would go with a Terrova as they have fewer parts that can go bad. FYI, I have a gen 2 ulterra that took 3 trips to the repair depot last year to figure out an issue. As others have said, 24 volt is enough, 36 is better. Go 36 if you have a spot for 3 grp 31 batteries. If you don't, 24 it is. Also, get an on-board charger with an extra bank to charge your starting battery.

Didnt end up finding a victim to join me - after-all it was a Sunday with 1 days notice... I have my eyes on LSC now if only the damn wind would die down..

Good point, the numbers don't add up. Unless..... multiple offenses going to one hunter. It looks like each offender had the book thrown at em.

Seriously considering going out tomorrow (Nov. 4th) for some fall muskie. Temps look decent and not much wind... Not sure if we'll get another day like it this year.. If you're interested please PM me. Will be leaving from Courtice (between Oshawa and Bowmanville).

I'm currently running 2 Evinrude HOs,, a 250 gen 2 and a 15 kicker. Both are 2 stroke and they are fantastic. Here are my comments: You'll love the auto winterization mode. There is a way to do it even if you don't have the ICON gauges. 2 stroke torque - cant beat it. My 250 goes into limp mode once my oil tank (internal) hits 1/4. Something to keep in mind. Dunno about the 15 as its still on its 1st tank. Fuel and oil economy (post breakin) are exceptional around 3000 to 3500 rpm. My G2 is very fussy with fuel quality. I didnt add enough stabilzer last winter and it complained through the that tank of fuel. New fuel, no issues. Very solid performance and super easy to start (both). I would take in every 2-3 yrs just to get it hooked up to the diagnotic system and to upload any software updates that came out. Enjoy

And you can probably guess where I was...lol

Will do! We fished 10 FOW mostly but I did end up getting a follow from one that was a pretty decent size. Thank you!

Picked one up at Natural Sports today - they are $20. Small and heavy, should cast a country mile. Apparently you can rip it or jerk it with a slow sinking action... I'll report back if I get any takers...
