    Who Drinks Alcohol While Fishing?

    The cooler always has some in it just in case. Usually prefer a gatorade/powerade or water though (something you can put the cap back on and stick it back in the cooler). Seems like I'm too busy running the boat and end up wasting a half a can because it gets warm or flat. Now shore fishing...

    Open Face Spin Cast or Bait Cast Reels

    I prefer baitcasters for trolling and spin casters for everything else. I have some of each at all times cuz you never know who you're gonna have on the boat and what they want to use. Yep, first rod was a zebco :)

    Power Pro, Fire Line or ???

    Power Pro for me. I can usually go for 3 or 4 seasons on a spool. Doesn't deteriorate as fast as fireline.

    Transom Savers

    I just set mine so that if I backed up to a curb stop it wouldn't hit the lower unit.

    You're Catching All Dinks

    nothing wrong with 15 inchers if you have a boat load of kids along, otherwise half hour of poking around to see there are any bigger ones in the area.

    I'm intriqued. A little spendy for a chunk of plastic/rubber?

    Transom Savers

    I've always used them on my boats without any problems. Reason for adding one on previous boat was the oil reservoir being on the engine. Propped on the kickstand and the oil would leak in the cover. My current engine has a scuff on the cover due to using the kickstand where the front of the...

    Boat Overhaul

    Don't need a livewell unless your fishing no-kill tournaments. I hardly ever use my livewells for anything but storage. Grab a cooler and some ice or freeze a couple of 2 liter bottles of water to keepem cold. As for trolling motor, I wouldn't go less than a 24 volt 80lb.

    Walleye Taste vs Northern Pike Taste?

    I agree that many at the cleaning station on Grahams Island have been confrontational or at least let out a groan and give ya the stink eye. They probably have been at a station where someone didn't clean up very well, either that or they have a little sand in the crotch.

    Walleye Taste vs Northern Pike Taste?

    I generally like the taste of northern better. However, it seems the flavor of a northern can vary a great deal from lake to lake and time of year with water temps and sometimes they get a little gamey tasting. Walleye is pretty bland and I've only had a few that picked up a bad flavor over...

    What is the biggest Walleye you have ever caught?

    8.5 lbs, 28.5 inches as seen in avatar photo. Guess I was Ahabbin before it was cool.

    What brand of boat do you run?

    Ya, I had to take the turret off for walleye fishing :) Hopefully it will get put to the test at the Jedi this year.

    What brand of boat do you run?

    1998 Starcraft Pro Elite 2000 with 225 Merc EFI. Upgraded last year from Starcraft 170 superfisherman with a 90 Merc. Always wanted a little more leg room and a little smoother ride up on Devils lake.
