Pimp....hmmmmmmmmm.......that makes you my? LOL..... Its all fun and games now, but its gonna make waiting from next weekend till 3rd saturday in May even harder!

Hi all, Went back to Eagle Lake after taking a half day off work as a last minute decision. My buddy Garnet came along...we got a limit, a few swapped up and not as big as the other day but fish for supper...cant be beat. Another good thing is my I-pilot arrived while i was in Winnipeg and it worked seamlessly! Locking on the spot and just fishing is amazing, i still dont trust it even though it held us withing inches of our spot all afternoon. All this effortless fishing will take a little while to adjust to. I now have the lock spot function figured out and am getting to like the Advanced auto-pilot feature (auto-pilot with GPS assist). We had fun saving a lock spot...moving a few hundred yards away then making the boat find it...cool. Next time out i am gonna familiarise myself with recording tracks....will be awesome on a few weedlines i know when the weeds arrive.

Finger...?

IT WAS GOOD!

At work. My co-worker and boss are fine with me leaving early, and i have stat hours to cover a half day off. My son is at the sitters till 5pm, my wife is home anyway. The sun is out and my boat ready to rock 'n' roll....hmmmmmmmmmm....tough call.

LOL......nice Bruce. Cute pups. my dog is definitely giving the cats a run for their money at walleye cleaning time!

Its kinda of a looking like Garmin is the way to go. However the more i dig the more i find. This looks great for the price...my wife would certainly be happier knowing i was always contactable, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

Doc and whiskey....i worry that because they are discontinued future software/maps etc will not be available....but i have heard lots of good things about the csx series both 76 and 60 series. In fact as i understand it the new 62 series was intended to bring the best features of those 2 'older' models together into one unit. dabluz...i have agree and disagree....i too owned an etrex legend, and yes it was accurate...but no way was it as fast as the 62stc. Also some features like 16gb internal memory with upto 32gb sd capability would definitely make the machine better than the etrex legend.

Thanks for the replies guys. I too am leaning towards the Garmin for many of the reasons stated above. I have not had the chance to see the lowrance powered up yet but have held one and its ok weight/feel wise. Nipfisher and Fishindevil have brought up why i am considering the Lowrance units...(and yes blair....i too have been warned a lot about not touching magellan units) and that is because they support navionics. However Delorme for the same price as the Garmin offers really good mapping options plus a satellite messaging/text service too, but the screen is small and my eyesight getting worse. Anyone own a Delorme?

Very disturbing content.

Hi all, I am looking to buy a handheld Gps. I am leaning towards the Garmin 62stc or the Lowrance Endura Sierra Please chime in with any and everything you want to.

Thanks for posting doc.....interesting thread. To answer your question Jigger, Cliff was using them as rainwear.

I did say something to him, he still wanted to wear them At least he was wearing his life jacket all day. I was wearing mine all day too, dont usually but water temp was just below 4C (39F) and it would not take long to succumb to those temps if you went in.

Hi all, got out in the boat today....can`t believe we did that in March! Target walleye........Mission accomplished. They were hitting the biggest minnows we had most aggressively. Even managed to `drill`a couple of holes in a passing ice sheet with our paddle. 15-18`FOW was where they were at today....jig and minnow the weapon of choice.

He was licking it!

Hi all, Gauranteed way to get snow is to say the word 'boat' in March! Went for a drive looking for some open water yesterday........found some at Eagle Lake As soon as i got home i called my buddy Cliff to say 'GET THE BOAT READY!' We headed back today to cast from shore, with half a foot of snow on the ground!!!! Roloff got his first taste of fishing open water....he likes it! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7oehDYylrsI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Welcome stainer...look forward to yer reports!

Thats it right there.

At least Chelsea have an away goal for their home tie on Wednesday with Benfica, they could and probably will get to the semis, but i think Bayern, Barcelona/AC Milan or Madrid will be too strong for them in the semis.

I'd say try everything thats been suggested apart from getting rid of the dog Matt. As a new dog owner (chocolate lab) i am reading with great interest...some good tips...thanks.

I would definitely find it hard living in a city again thats for sure. Its amazing how clear the lake is at ice out, this lake is the clour of a Timmies double double as soon as the water is 20' from shore! LOL....and moments before that the 60lb beast came screaming across the yard full tilt and smacked into the kid broadside sending him flying!

Awesome....i have to admit i said out loud..."$#@#$ slow down woman", but i guess thats not her style from what i've seen before. Happy for ya both Wayne.

Ice out should be here before end of walleye season....if not completely enough to cast from our shore or in a boat in a narrows somewhere...cant wait. Ice has not receded far from our shore as yet...but whats left is pretty honeycombed, another week or so above freezing during the day and some wind should do the trick. PICS OF IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE FRIDAY. NOT LONG NOW

Mine and the wife's has been through the wash twice now...look pretty much the same as when they went in....lol...my trailer and skidoo ownership not so good.

Never tried them, but that looks and sounds good, you go to jail for 100 years if you so much as say the word smelt in wmzs up here!
