    Electric hook sharpener

    Anyone have a small battery powered hook sharpener they like? Want something to quickly tune up a hook point on jig or crabkbait while fishing. Looks like berkley and others used to make these but now they are all called "line strippers" with a hook grind stone. Been fishing a long time and...

    https://www.kxnet.com/news/local-news/winterkill-in-lakes-what-napoleon-did-to-save-the-fish/ Found this interesting. Didn't know the locals had done that there. Did a search and saw the NDGF fishing waters directory notes winter aeration occurs on a couple lakes.

    $50/yr for Navionics mobile!?!

    Navionics continues to disappoint. $50/yr to use the app is insanity. It appears maps saved for offline use are still viewable for now but everything else is gone unless you subscribe at the ridiculous new rate. Unfortunately I was not aware the change was coming and did not have much saved for...

    All horsepower, no brains

    These people and all those like them deserve the most aggressive form of rectal cancer. Aside from the fact it's illegal to drive your wake boat within 100 feet of another boat that is working a shoreline with the electric motor deployed, only a true bottom feeder would do it twice. The sole...

    Bucket for insulated tip ups?

    Looking for a 5-6 gallon plastic pail with bottom inside diameter large enough to fit round thermal tip ups. Every new bucket I see at big box stores has bottom inside diameter about 10.25" which is not quite enough. I had one old bucket in my stack that is about 11" at the bottom and works...

    More Snow Next Week?

    Another Colorado low coming week of December 12? Since I've been watching this model routinely the last few years, it has accurately predicted almost all of the big snow makers up to a week out. It's very early and the impact area, intensity and duration always fluctuate, but something to keep...

    Interference on Side Imaging

    Looking for ideas to track down this interference issue. Side imaging gets a washout effect when trolling motor prop is on. The photo shows a darker band which is the short interval I turned off the prop on the trolling motor to take the photo. It is definitely electrical interference as...

    Federal CWD Spending

    For a politician that claims to fight against overspending and federal overreach, this sure seems like an open invitation for the feds to meddle in something that is already being mismanaged by the state while spending even more money...
