    Transducer cable?

    Yeah, I use electrical tape and a piece of bungee cord. I absolutely can't get the damn old cable to budge! It's either clipped to the underside of the deck, or pinched between the deck and a tube. - - - Updated - - - p.s. no need to cut the ducer off, it is up at Sak in a couple feet of...

    Sak question

    It justifies your purchase of a big water boat that can safely take you across the main part of Sak. But yeah, I too fell like there's just better fishing on average the farther north you go.

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    I still can't believe we haven't had at least one person (outside of Marbleyes, for the wrong reasons) come out and say that they regret going to glass. :;:huh I figured there would have to be at least a couple.

    Tax dollars being put to good use.

    Right, these critters are working their way up and down the Missouri River valley in that area. I've seen some pretty nice animals using these kinds of crossings in the past.

    Transducer cable?

    Anyone on here ever successfully spliced one? Basically, it's just a pair of telephone wire sized aluminum wires surrounded by a stranded shielding cable. I'm discovering that replacing my transducer and cable on the Toon is one hell of an undertaking! It will involve removing a bunch of...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    Some of the talk here makes me think back to when I drove a 16 ft beer can around on Sak with a 3.9 hp Merc. It would keep up with a person on a fast walk, and almost hit jogging speed when going with the wind. There were a few times where I got blown across Little Knife Bay and had to wait...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    ndlongshot, that is probably my biggest concern as well. I totally ripped a transducer off of my Toon last weekend having to put her on an island because someone needed to take a leak so bad they were worried about peeing their pants. As we left, the Toon "gently" bonked a rock and that was it...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    This is good stuff, fellas. Outside of Marbleyes, it doesn't seem like anyone went to glass and then back to aluminum. And that was for all the wrong damn reasons. I am merely vetting the options, and am nowhere near the buying stage. However, one can't do enough due diligence when dropping...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    Yeah, part of the problem for me is I fish a heck of a lot of different waters each year. Everything from White Earth down to the dam on Sak, the river near Bismarck, Lake Oahe, and all the smaller lakes in the area. I'm starting to really like the Toon for fishing Sak and big waters, but when...

    Hunts that haunt you

    Fall of 2005 I was hunting the southern part of the Badlands for a WT buck. This was the year of the Deep Creek fire and we (the ex and I) were hunting the public land near where some of the private stuff burned. I knew there were whiteys in the area, but in this one draw I had only ever seen...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    I'm just curious here if anyone (I'm sure someone has) regretted going from an aluminum hulled boat over to a glass hull? I'm contemplating getting a different boat over the next year or two and have really been thinking about going glass for the ride. But that's only one part of the equation...

    Storage Net Options - 2017 Lund Boats

    https://www.norsemenoutdoors.com/product-category/stowmaster/ I have the walleye 108" version for the Toon. Great net even if it's a little on the heavy side. Overall though, I don't know if I fully understand your dilemma. Are you storing your net vertical in a holder only to have the motor...

    Missouri River rise

    This latest development makes me laugh, out loud even. The only reason I brought it up is because there are people in the Bismarck/Mandan area that are awfully sensitive to the word "flood" and I want to make sure that we all understand that this little bout of high water does not meet the...

    Missouri River rise

    p.s. Mclean Bottoms is Corps of Engineers owned for a reason. It was purchased specifically for inundation when they were to run Oahe at full pool and into its Exclusive Flood Control zone. It's a bit of a stretch to refer to it as "flooded" when it's supposed to be the bottom of the lake...

    2-4D

    Lots of industrial applications of it to dicamba resistant crops have been really putting the hurt to trees and neighboring non-resistant crops. I'd have to think those farmers opting to not use dicamba resistant soybeans, etc are really pissed when their neighbor costs them 5-20% of their...

    I'm addicted to Power Pro

    I agree, thus I buy the stuff by the 1500 yd spool. It took Cabelas and PP some 5+ weeks to deliver a spool I ordered back in early June. I'd been waiting weeks to spool a couple of rods that needed new line, and another that was just a new addition to the boat.
