Thanks Hoffer, I will be around, not sure what or exactly where each day though. If you swing up I can at least mark some spots on Pipestone for you to try. If I know for sure that I have a day free before you take off, I will let you know and maybe we can fish a bit. Does your cell work when you are up?

Superbee-

It works sometimes - but very spotty. Pretty unreliable.

If I decided to hit pipestone - refresh my memory - would have to reload the boat? or is that the lake with the mechanical portage??

I have to admit we get kind of into the swing of things while we are up there and may not even get back down to the despair area unless to maybe get more gas or something.There is a bigger group this year - I think the cabin may even be full. Dont want to hijack your post here on this thread...maybe we can start a new one on the canadien area.

Your new fly in looks nice. Dont know if you remember me telling you this...but my brother bruce and I and my Dad flew into one of the L and M fly in lakes a number of years back. We flew right out of the Fort Frances Rusty Myers dock - and I think we went to an lake that isnt listed on your site anymore...like Dogfly? it was mainly a walleye/northern lake. The first day the plane flew us into another lake to pick up some guys there and they were fishing strictly smallies. They had caught tons of them. Anyway...if we cross paths - that would be cool. If you have a chance stop by.

Superbee..

Do you have a map or directions you can show me how to get to the portages etc...and get into Pipestone.

I may not end up doing so...but my friends other buddies that are coming up this time are into doing some day long trips like that. If its not a problem to somehow get me that info - that would be great. I can leave you my email address if you want too.

Thanks!

Hoffer

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • 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.
    • 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?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
