    Lets see your nature scene pics from the boat.

    My fishing partner... He's up and bending his head over the side when the drag goes on any rod/reel. He also likes greeting each fish with a lick and celebrating it with a Milkbone each time! lol

    New addition to the family

    I hear ya, but squeaking out that much cash for something is a hard thing for me to do. I might pop out $300 for a step system, but $580? (dizzy spells) I do fish by myself @ 40% of the time, so having something like that would be beneficial when it's just me and the trailer getting loaded...

    New addition to the family

    The last 'first mate' didn't put the boat onto the trailer well at the loading dock. She got fawwwwrrrd! Now I'm back to the basics and a quick Google search found all kinds of options, from $40 - $599. Geeez, six hondo? I don't need a royal step system for Queen Elizabeth, dammit...

    New addition to the family

    I like that step-up ladder attached to the front end. God, where does a guy find something like that??? I'm always stepping over the trolling motor and hoping my feet touch the strap crank so I can reach the front plate. Something like that step would definitely be on my Christmas list.

    Whats your max wind speed?

    Yup, 20mph here, too. Under that just depends on the location and the boat ramp location. Just remember, the forecast's prediction of 15-17mph wind is "CONSTANT WIND" = no less than, but most likely more than that. So, if you look at the other chart posted by Shorthair, you'll see gusts...

    SOS

    I know that Schwans delivery service did/has a chipped beef and cream sauce. I'm unsure whether it's still in their available selections, but it was there and I've ordered it a couple of times four-five years ago.

    SOS

    I agree, the SOS I had back in the 80's and 90's in the mess hall was fantastic. If there was enough bread to run through the conveyor toaster oven I'd pour gobs of SOS on top. It's even better when you plop down a ton of scrambled eggs in there, too!!

    WHOOO Finally joined!

    Welcome. More info shared here 10x over than at FBO. Those thin-skinned need not type a word in these forum's, tho. ;:;rofl You are truly 'in the middle of nowhere', aren't you? Oyyyy, every fishing event is a haul for you!

    Where do you get your weather?

    I tell ya, wind is something that's elusive to the meteorologists, will always be. I continually see forecasts saying 10-15mph wind Saturday and Sunday, only to pull my boat north 65miles and have trouble launching/landing with 22-26mph wind pretty much late morning to supper time. GRRRRR...

    Drift socks

    Own two sizes and have used them both. With NoDak wind I feel you can get a better and consistent troll speed. I remember my old Triton 189 was a pig on the water and very difficult to maneuver (cable-drive bow mount & manual drive kicker in back) where you could NOT use both. That was when I...

    Flathead lake/Polson Montana

    Later in the summer (end of July) the Flathead cherries will be harvested and you'll find people up and down the highway on the east side of the lake selling bags or lugs of 'em. Went by years ago and we bought a lug of cherries for $22 and had them finished by the end of the week...

    ND spring weather

    Wind above 15mph at least 5 of the 7 days per week. ;:;banghead I purchased a high-wind designed US Flag for the flagpole last year April, at $54.00. Yeah, that already started fraying by September. So much for the labeling, huh? I'll just go back to buying four flags from Menards when...

    Minnkota Terrova iPilot Remote Control Buttons

    My iPilot isn't doing that so much, but it now is blinking the LED display on the remote. First battery was removed last October and a new battery went in just two months ago (March). I know that as my old battery was going dead I had to be right at my seat and couldn't take one step back...

    Have you had the boat out yet?

    My boat, 6-7 times. Others boats, 3-4 times. Once shore fishing. Ready for lake water, tho.

    Potty training puppies

    Same chime, here. Porta-kennel trained for the first few months. I picked up my pup the first week of November. Just hated seeing that puppy face down on the floor looking up at me. Picked him up into my lap. He's now a 68# lap dog when I'm in my recliners; not allowed on any other...

    New state record paddle fish? It looks like one!

    Listen, if any of us were up there and snagged this PIG of a fish we would all consider mounting it. Ugly? Hell yeah. Once it's gaffed, it isn't going back to the river anyway; might as well process it / get 'er stuffed (literally speaking, too)! Paddlefish is okay for consumption only a...
