Hi Jill,

Welcome! Its nice to hear from other women on here. You fell free to come back and talk to us any time. Its hard to get women to come back here to often. I love to fish!! I just got home a little bit ago from our camper that we have in southren Mn. We go up every chance we get. So do you do much fishing in Texas? <><Mary><>

Thanks for the response...Nope, no fishing in TX. I grew up in MN and I guess I am spoiled. I just can't fish for bass and stripers or catfish. I'm used to wallys and the toothy little critters!!! I think the fish here taste funny too, must be the warm water.

So did you catch anything???

Hey welcome fininjunkie
Always nice to see some new women stop by! Especially a Texan (my mom was from Paris, TX). I know my uncle use to fish on lake Texarkana. They use to talk about the water moccasins trying to get in the boat on one lake they fished. My great aunt was in Clarksville and I remember going fishing down there someplace when I was just a little kid and we ran into Hoss's (from Bonanza) son on that lake but don't remember where we were. Hope you have a great stay in MN and come back and visit us on this site! Hey, we saw 3 pairs of geese herding their kids around the lake begging for food today - they were really cute.

I am from Burnsville/Lakeville area. My grandparents lived in Glenwood. I remember going to Lake Minnewaska and catching sunnies all day long. Good to hear from everyone! Happy Monday (Augh!)

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
