    alumacraft competitor question

    Looks to be available as an option.

    St. Croix Legend rods

    I don't have first hand experience with this series of St. Croix rods but it appears that the $630 version is their Legend Extreme. Looking through that page, they list Legend X, Legend Elite, Legend Tournament, and Legend Glass. The Legend Tournament Walleye Spinning are in the $250 range which...

    Walleye Rod Setups

    A good portion of my rods are Scheels branch. I've had to warranty them at least twice for guides inserts coming out and didn't have any issues. Just brought it in and got a new one. I've heard some chatter on how they have changed their rod warranty policy. Need to ask next time I'm in the...

    Trolling motor upgrade

    I have a Bluetooth Ulterra iPilot Link. Previous motor was a non-Bluetooth Terrova iPilot. The spot lock is definitely better on the Bluetooth version. I do wish I would have went with a 72" shaft vs the 60". I can get the motor to pop out of the water when spot locked with a stiff wind.

    Humminbird Helix 7 G3

    I would say go for it as that seems like a fair price. Will be a heck of an upgrade over your old Eagle. For mapping I would recommend the LakeMaster Dakota's card (especially if DL is your go to lake). This is what I have and found to be pretty accurate on DL. It's also a High Definition lake...

    Gas Prices

    That reminded me of a few years ago when I went to fill out my boat with fuel. Gas at the time was $4ish/gallon and the pump stopped at $100 (wouldn't let you pump more without starting a new transaction). Told myself I guess $100 is enough!

    Sciatica?

    I struggled with sciatica issues a few years ago. Started by going to the chiropractor but after a few sessions I didn't see any improvement. Went to the doctor next which recommend PT. Ended up going about 6-7 sessions of PT which eventually cured it. They would put me a traction table which...

    Fargo, West Fargo to issue 'stay at home' directive

    So what does this "directive" do that already hasn't been done? A lot has already been closed but people still need to get to work and buy grocerys. What's next no sex after midnight?

    Electronics....Opinions wanted.

    The Humminbird unit could go anywhere in the boat as long as it's networked to the MinnKota trolling motor through ethernet. I would put it wherever is the most convenient. The remote that comes with the iPilot units allows you to do quite a bit but not select a specific depth contour to follow...

    Is now the time to stock up on ammo?

    Same here. The only ammo I really ever stock up on is when 12 gauge is on sale since I shoot at least a 1500 rounds during the summer trap season. We'll see if that even happens this year but if it doesn't I'll be ready for next year. Not sure if those are stocking up think some sort of zombie...

    Landing net

    Call the dow (5/1)!

    The way the market has been moving for the last few weeks, I don't know if anyone knows what it will doing the next day let alone 5 weeks from now. Even though there has been a decent rally this week, I still feel it still has room to go down some. Market seems to be bullish about this upcoming...

    Transducer Placement

    Is the higher transducer for SI? If so, does the lower transducer cause interference? Seems like it would be in the way of the SI beam angle.
