  1. You aren't going anywhere if you launch into Three Legged, besides Three Legged, lol. However if you're in a canoe, most people will hump over to Spider. Good laker fishing, I've done it through the ice, never in the softwater.
  2. BillM

    Smelts

    Perfect spring pike bait!
  3. I had a 12V Powerdrive before I got my Terrova and had no issues with it (besides it's lack of power)
  4. 24V/60in/80lb is the easy choice. You can never have too much trolling motor.
  5. Tell the fish to turn around and go home
  6. What motor are you starting that with?
  7. Yup, you got it. When my AGMs die I'll happily buy some cheap Amazon lithiums and not worry too much about it.
  8. Dakota is a absolute waste of $$$. All that extra for what? They could charge those prices because they were one of the first in the game. People are finally waking up to realize their batteries are just like all the rest.
  9. I'm going to say no after looking at Google Maps.
  10. I'd be fishing much lower down the river.. Think NOTL... No need to hump down (and back up) those stairs lol
  11. Look up NikWax. Your old gear needs to be washed and tossed in the dryer. It will bead water once again
  12. The lower on the Canadian side has a bunch of spots, barely any wading required.. Art Park is a good drift (US side) but that involves the border, blah blah blah.
  13. Cabelas Guidewear. With any Goretex you need to do a bit of maintenance to reactivate the waterproofing. I usually do this once a year, been going on 6 years with my stuff and dry as it was on day #1.
  14. I'd find somewhere on the lower (Use Google maps for parking lots) and rip big swimbaits off the bottom.
  15. I thought the same when I looked up the OPs trolling motor. I guess it's good though, like how many options do we need LOL! The new brushless Terrova is going to be pretty slick I think. The prob is my 10 year old Terrova won't die.
  16. There is no Link anymore. All new motors have Advanced GPS/One Boat Network, which will follow the contour with the properly connected HB unit.
  17. You'll want a Humminbird sonar up front then if you want to use features such as follow the contour etc. You'll need a lakemasters chip or use Autochart Live to create your own maps in order to use that feature. Won't follow the contour on Navionics maps.
  18. Same with spring pike lol. Basically sight fishing.
  19. Exact opposite where I am. 8in of snow followed by 8-10 degrees the next day.
  20. Yup, no complaints when we used Hearst Air to fly into the Sutton. Great outfit.
  21. Not compatible with Lowrance. You won't get any of the smart functions on the graph unless it's a Humminbird.
  22. The lithiums are becoming a lot more attractive now that the prices are dropping a bit. I'd love to get rid of 3 group 31 AGMs
