    Translates to Walleye?...

    Early 90's used skirts with live bait on Sakakawea and they worked better than just a spinner or lindy for 2 0r 3 years. Then seemed couldn't get many fish after with them. It is funny you posted this as I was looking online a couple weeks ago for different colored squids/skirts as I was...

    Casting rod

    I will continue to buy Scheel's regardless of what the WARRANTY policy says. They have always treated me right, and I have no doubt they will treat me right if there is a MANUFACTURER'S issue after the 3 years. If something happens in the future I don't like, I will just quit buying rods, as I...

    Casting rod

    Like I said I have both. It cost me 25 or 30 dollars a few years ago to ship one back to St. Croix. A 150 dollar rod just became 180. That's 20% more and waited around 10 days to get it.

    Casting rod

    I have both St. Croix and Scheels. I will stick with Scheels, as they have been nothing less than great with customer service. Have used the warranty 3 times in 22 years. If you have an issue, you walk in and get one off the rack. With the others you pay to ship them back, then wait and hope...

    Buying a boat.

    I find it really hard to believe the previous owner would put 3 new batteries in it and have it winterized at a dealer if that was the case.

    Boat Wiring~ Onboard charger and trolling motor

    Amps per bank is the key to me. The above Noco is 5 amps per bank. Like everything you buy, everyone has different needs. Do you want the batteries charged up fast, if your staying at camp and want to take late arrivals out after you have been out, you want more amps per bank. If you are just...

    Boat Wiring~ Onboard charger and trolling motor

    You need a 12v charger not 24v as the 2 bank /3 bank/4 bank/ all charge your batteries individually as 12's. I wired in a receptacle, no breaker, as first thing I do is unplug the TM before plugging in the charger (which also has a receptacle). I have had a 2 bank pro mariner for 10 years with...

    Getting Started Trolling Cranks

    One other thing. Use a glove of sorts that a hook can't penetrate easy when unhooking a fish. Saves on buried hooks in the fingers. Don't ask me how I know and how many times I know. ;:;rofl

    Getting Started Trolling Cranks

    If you are going to use snap weights anyway, the easiest way in MY opinion is start moving at your desired trolling speed, clip on your snap weight, wait till it hits bottom , crank it up a couple turns and your fishing. Just be flexible and experiment how far or low you go. The fish one day...

    Getting Started Trolling Cranks

    Not saying that does not happen once in a while, but a little effort saves money, and not having to recalibrate, which does make a difference to stay consistent

    April Blizzard Predicted next week

    You could always move down to where the tornadoes have wreaked havoc for weeks, massive destruction and loss of lives. I am guessing you have food ,water, and evidently shelter. I would consider you lucky and blessed this holy week. :;:huh

    Getting Started Trolling Cranks

    I use mostly fireline, 3 different colors. That way if you happen to snag a paddlefish or a big northern that crosses all the lines before you get a chance to get things cleared it is easier to untangle. :(
