    Trolling Motor Opinions

    No I hear ya. My boat didnt come with a bow mount so I had to eat that bullet. I tried to run with just the transom mount and found my boat control skills laughable at best. DM...that made me laugh out loud!!!

    Midlife crisis? Epiphany? Or am I insane?

    Best of luck to you Duck...I think you have adopted an excellent attitude. This is an opportunity and it sounds like you are going to take advantage. Teachers are needed everywhere...I don't believe they have ever gotten the respect or appreciation they deserve. Good on ya Sir!

    Wolf Creek Ice-Sak

    We maybe in that mid-winter lull? Maybe the warmer weather/stable pressure will help the bite? Although if this warm weather sticks around, we'll be thinking about open water!
