No hate here, just stating facts as most see them.

1. You are not funny. At least not on the internet. Maybe your attempts at jokes are better in person.
2. Your sarcasm and satire are also sad
3. Your posts add little to no value to threads, whether they are encyclopedic lists of links or attempts at humor
4. Every group has at least one person that no one likes. If you don't know who it is, it's probably you

I wonder if I advocated for perpetual easements open to the public and loved Ducks Unlimited and demanded we create more and more public land if folks like you would think differently............

Regarding your #3, my posts are often times fact based information with the links to it that provide a different point of view. Yeah I can see where that is of no value to some on here. And when people have holes poked thru their ideas or claims with fact it often leads to your #4

As to your#4........I don;t worry much about "groups" liking me, especially those "groups" of people I have never met on an internet site that act a bit like a clique of high school girls.

I suppose maybe if I just stuck to "sconi" bashing" and talking about sausage fests and high school type pranks on guy sleepovers it would be more appropriate for the "group".

You're giving yourself too much credit, gst. I just don't like you.

Really?

Get the hell out of here.........your kidding right?

I like you GST, I think your neat.

I am an all inclusive asshole, and try to treat everyone with little respect

yeah - you won't see me using it in areas with debris/gravel/rocks - I think it can handle some 2 mph collisions with the occasional logs

I built it "breakaway" so I can always replace it - I made a stencil and I can cut two or three from a $15 Target brand cutting board.

I plan to lock the main motor in place and steer with the trolling motor (and hopefully leave a lot of it up to the xi5 and gateway mapping system). I do that now and it works great but can be a pain since a guy has to oversteer a lot under certain conditions - the huge skeg will minimize battery usage since it relies more on keel/cutting to make turns rather than rely prop propulsion off to the side.

I doubt that Skegosaurus will work that well in conjunction with the bags

the bags are for slowing me down from my current lowest speed of 1.8mph if necessary

Wouldnt that steering fin deal work just as well above the motor as below it? I could never use something like that, it wouldnt last more than a day, Im always hitting bottom with my motors...

I think it would be harder to store with the fin on top

i doubt the idea is to have it on there all the time, fat black lady.

Already been in the boat, I'm just tired of captain douche. And apparently now I'm a high school girl and he does, in fact, add value to this website....if its somehow political in nature. Fishing, hunting, outdoors...not a chance. Unless he's trying to be funny in a thread that had trolling in the title and he actually thought it was about being an internet troll. Now guy's thread is all messed up. Quickly enough, he'll disappear into political threads, awaiting his next potential prey. Where he will spring into a conversation while not really knowing what we're talking about because its not about cows or tree rows or 10 gallon hats.

Haha.. captain douche from I'm always correct island In the country of douchbagistan. That's a first, unless I haven't been paying attention never have I seen anybody rub DM's fur backwards.

I run aground with the electric when I'm pitching on rare occasion - but never when trolling. Keep in mind this is for non-precision open water or off-shore style trolling - say 6 FOW and more in general.

and yes - good thinking - it should indeed work above the motor as well! Interesting concept.

Stowing the motor would suck though as fish-r mentioned.

I think rivers like Missouri would obviously NOT be a good candidates for this approach - very small/complicated bodies with abrupt changes compared to most lakes in MN and ND.

Haha, true, I am mostly unsavory.

correct - Skegosaurus® is small and easily stored - install or uninstall in less than 30 seconds from inside the boat (a design prerequisite!)

here it is hanging from the 1/4" retainer/pin that keeps it from "walking" out of the robust 1/2" locking pins

it's just a small flat piece of 0.36" cutting board - takes as close to no storage as I could conjure up

fat black lady... LOL

you'll notice the rest of it stays put and sits lower than the OEM skeg

by the way - the rest of it comes off in less than a minute - two shrink-wrapped hose clamps that hold the two transducer mounts I based the design on

Dixie Normous had me laughing pretty damn hard. LOL good stuff.

 

[NodakBuckeye]

Will be interesting to hear how it works, when I trolled on Erie, and sometimes do it on Sak; I just two 5 gallon buckets tied on the forward cleats. Using the electric to steer was not an option since I have no remote. I think the location of the bags will help steering and wouldn't be surprised if it takes only the slightest adjustments with the electric to stay on course. I only tried to stay 1-1.5 when the water was below 55° or so.
