    New boat

    I dont believe they have any LEAN manufacturing process down. As I mentioned, they show from 10 feet how they are able to cut prices. They have "overall quality" and do fish quite well; however, finish is missing sorely. Some quys would rather buy new and spend 40k than spending the same 40k...

    New boat

    Larson is far from a new boat brand. They just jumped into the walleye segment 6 or so years ago.

    New boat

    Larson meets a price point with a great layout. It is evident why they meet the pricepoint... Gelcoat isnt fantastic, hinges are visible, electronics have no protection (tillers), and they dont sparkle. However, they fish quite well and have a great layout. They also have some features...

    New boat

    Boats and boat owners are fickle beasts. Helping at boat shows I have found that owners and manufacturers are very "cult-like". Many guys refuse to look at the obvious positives AND negatives of brands other than what they run. There are many decent boats out there. Skeeter, Lund, Ranger...

    49th Annual Bismarck Tribune Sport Show

    It will likely take me awhile since I plan on being there Fri and Sat pretty much open to close both days. I am pretty sure they will have a couple more there this year so you shouldnt be disappointed.

    Columbia River?

    Maybe I misrepresented what I found vs what I was looking for. I contacted a couple you listed and was less than impressed with them over the phone. I never got a clear answer to some of my questions ie: "depends on time of year", "depends on tactic", etc. Answers were mushy to me. I even...

    Columbia River?

    I am also interested. I have been looking on-line for over a year to find where, when, and how. I have yet to find a guide that targets Eyes as his/her primary species or even has decent and consistent Walleye reports. Id go out for just a trophy fish trip if I could find the info I desire...

    Open Water Fishing Fever

    EVERY DAY!!! I'd give up 10 days on the ice for 1/2 day in the boat.

    Considering New Trolling Motor

    Find a way to put a 2nd batt in!! There is no such thing as "too much bowmount". I have had the old and new generation Terrova. The new generation is a game changer. The spot lock just plain sticks. I used it more than my Talon for shallow anchoring and locks me in whether flat calm or 2-3...

    What outdoors stuff did ya get for Christmas?

    Monster ATV box (with 2 rod boxes to attach) and digger auger carrier for my sled, weathertechs, and tungsten. A great Christmas.

    Cool Article Captain Brad!

    I thought the same thing last year until I networked my Birds correctly.... All I was missing was 1 $65 Y cable. Birds are able to clear up sonar interference within the unit; but cannot run standdard imaging on 1 and the down/side imaging on the other unit without clutter. Once I got the Y...

    OK....I WILL BE THE FIRST...maybe not

    And cheese. Anything aged (beer, wine, cheese, aged meats) is bad for gout.

    Observations

    Everyone has different priorities and shouldnt be shunned for it. My wife and I choose to travel little and I have pretty much given up on hunting. We, however, do spend 3-5 days a week on the water together from ice out to ice up. It is what we choose to do. I do not pay cash for boats...

    Favorite Kind of ice shelter

    Each option has its plus' and minus'. I love my sled style flip over. What I hate is everything being beat up on a run across the lake and the hole in the sled (2 year old Mitchel Thermal...shoulda bought an Otter). I love to run and gun and have well set up 4 wheeler and snowmobile that...

    Observations

    I have always thought it would be fun to pull a 86k boat with a $1500 pickup for much of the summer..... I have, it was fun, and I got a ton of great looks (many of the judgemental type).

    Ice Rod Case

    I apologize as this doesnt help your question; but how do you like your monster box? Is it the medium size? Would you be willing to take measurements of it for me? I am thinking about fitting one to my snowmobile and dont want to spend the $300 and find it wont fit... Overall width and...

    new rig question

    No need for the Panther electro-steer. Set the kicker straight forward and use your Terrova/Ulterra for steering. I have had multiple boats with remote throttle/steering and my latest order is a tiller with Trollmaster throttle control.
