    i worked with my broker to make sure that my electronics set up was the primary part of the value of my boat. Because of its age the blue book value of a 16 year old is essentially nothing. But the screens, panoptix and trolling motor would all cost a very pretty penny to replace no matter what.

    I added all electronics separately to my boat policy. Had no issues to do that.

    I'm a HUGE fan of Geigertec mounts. They're hand-made in Aurora, Ontario to an absolutely insane quality standard by people who actually fish. The guy who runs it (Tim Fernandes) is one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Website is https://www.geigertecmarine.com

    I like to support Canadian companies whenever I can, but flag waving aside, these really are the highest quality mounts I've ever seen - bar none.

    Yes, they're expensive and yes, pricing on the website is in USD ... which reflects the fact that's where 95% of their customers are located. BUT ... these brackets will last a lifetime and you'll never worry about having an expensive display bounce around in rough water, or detach altogether (as I had happen a few years back with another bracket). They really are as good as it gets.

    Awesome mounts. Have one for my finder. Quality is unbelievable.

    Good day,

    Sorry for delay with updating this post.

    My trip was very successful. What a beautiful country that area is. From amazing fishing to berry and mushroom picking.

    Funny enough - iboating app had most of the lakes charted which helped a lot.

    Long Point Lake has a lot of pike and bass. Walleyes are in but you have to work for them, same goes with perch.

    Fishing in general is very good on Long Point lake. 

    Area also is surrounded by many small lakes (some a deep with good trout population). Launching boat might be a challenge - had to try few of those lakes with great success. Biggest issue was to launching my 17 footer Princecraft on those lakes. It was a bit of a challenge. Haven't try couple walleye lakes that locals called best ones.

    Already planning to go back next year.

    If someone has any specific questions - please pm and i gladly will reply.

    That is one heavy duty cancellation policy those folks have.............

     

    In that part of the country, for walleye, it is pretty hard to beat a 1/4 oz ball head jig and 3" Berkley power grub.  Probably stained water, and I would go with bright colours like white and pink, maybe yellow and orange, and fluorescent if possible.  Good luck!

    Thank you - got full bunch of tackle ready - from grubs to worm harnesses. Guys at camp have minnows for sale as well. Cant wait really - 2 more days!!!
