Or if you're a bowhunter, do you go after deer? And about the time you're sitting in a tree you see ducks going into the pond! or you hear pheasants cackling! Its a great time of the year!!

Myself, I'll be after pheasants in South Dakota!!! Yes!!

My place of employment forces me to take five weeks of paid vacation every year, so right now I'm into ten days off. I hate it but have no choice. Just got back from sturgeon fishing in Wisconsin, next is duck hunting. That is followed by Walleyes in SoDak. Then we have a group that is goose hunting at Lac Qui Parle. Mornings in the goose blinds, afternoons either duck hunting, Pheasant hunting, or Walleye fishing the river. Pack for everything and just go and keep your options open.

Icehousebob....you're killing us...

I'm heading for the stand. Hunted fowl after work 3 times this week...not many moving at all.

Moon's gone and I've been seeing deer at sun-up on the way to work...it's time to put some venison in the freezer!!

What are you folks going after this weekend? Looks like warm weather and bluebird skies. My first reaction is pheasants but with corn still up, maybe ducks are the way to go.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

      By Wanderer · Posted

      If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...

      Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
