    Propping a F70 - 17 foot tiller

    I recently purchased a used aluminum tiller boat with a yammie F70. The boat is a G3 Angler V172. The prop on it is in need of repair and/or replacement. I plan on using it primarily on Lake Sakakwea so I’m leaning towards a SS prop with an alloy prop for a back up. The prop on it now is a 12...

    Ramp @ Pouch Point

    Is it usable? I have a 22’ tritoon I’d like to fish that area but I’m not sure with the low water how good the access is. ThNks

    Help Propping 200 V6 Merc on Tri-Toon

    Thanks for the input. No, i didn't get a tone. I was curious at what RPM i would hear it. Also i do wonder with analog gauges (like i have) how accurate they are.

    Help Propping 200 V6 Merc on Tri-Toon

    I'm looking for some sage advice on propping a my new tritoon. I took delivery of a new Crest 220 tritoon and for the maiden voyage we were able to get about 3 hours on it to do the initial break-in period. Overall i'm very excited and pleased with the performance of the boat and motor as its...

    Maps of Sakakawea with bay names

    Anyone ever found a place online where you can order a map with all of the names of bays, points, POI, etc? I’d love to have one to hang on a wall at the cabin. Thanks

    Trolling for Salmon with in-line weights - 5 oz weights -

    Thanks for the heads up Allen! Lol, honestly i hadn't even given any thought about where i would start fishing. I have a cabin at Elmer's Point (McKenzie Bay, Mosset Bay area on Little Missouri River near the mouth of the Missouri) and i'm really sure i'll be the only guy out in the channel...

    Trolling for Salmon with in-line weights - 5 oz weights -

    Last time i was at Scheels i picked up a couple packages of their 5 oz in-line weights. I've been using their 2 oz weights with the Precison App for a couple of years and i really enjoy that. My question for you guys - is there a 'rule of thumb' in regards to adding more weight and getting...

    BRP - Evinrudes parent company, will stop making ETECS and G2’s

    https://boatingindustry.com/news/2020/05/28/brp-exits-outboard-motor-business/ looks like Evinrude outboards will cease production - this is a major blow for some, but it looks like Mercury, an American based company, stands to benefit the most from it. G2 resale values will likely suffer.

    What type of lures are these (Reef Runner 800 knock offs)

    What type of lures are these (Reef Runner 800 knock offs)

    I have a handful of lures that look somewhat like the Reef Runner 800’s but they aren’t actually RR 800’s - they have a “3-D” eye on them. Otherwise they look just like them. Are these Scheels brand or ?? Do they run the same as 800’s? I’d post some pics but I can’t figure out how to do...

    Adding a Kicker - Opinions Wanted

    From reading online, it appears that Tohatsu makes all of Mercury’s motors 40 hp and less. They also make Suzuki’s lineup from 30 and under. The Tohatsu/Mercury/Suzuki 15 EFI is all the same engine, different stickers. This is probably the motor I’ll go with. Just for conversation, what’s...

    Adding a Kicker - Opinions Wanted

    I'd like opinions on which (Mercury) kicker to add to an 1875 ProV. The boat is used (2016) and came without any "provisions" for adding the kicker. So what say you? My old boat had a 9.9 Pro Kicker and i used it a lot. It was a remote steer which i didn't like all that much - the Sea Star...

    Minnows

    Why couldn’t a guy go on BisMan and buy a used aquarium? Seems simple enough.
