I'm hitting lake of the woods this weekend as a form of a bachelor party, just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on must-haves for a weekend trip like this one. We have rented a sleeper out of sportsmans lodge and will be bringing the usual equipment for fishing/sleeping etc... but what do you recommend to keep 6 guys entertained when the bite isn't hot?

I like the stripper idea just get them from the cities so they have all their teeth and are under a buck forty! Or if strippers are not in the budget some porn and a DVD player.

Last thing I'd want to do is be in a sleeper shack on the ice for a couple of days with a bunch of horny guys and porn.....Now if there were girls around it would be different. However it doesn't sound like it.

With 6 guys there should be enough B S flying to keep everyone entertained without much else necessary. I like the Grumpy/Grumpier Old Men idea on a portable DVD.

Lots of good snacks and a camera would be on the top of my list.

Jenga is a blast, and the pieces float. (Dice don't)

How funny, I'm heading up there tomorrow morning with a bunch of guys for a bachelor party, 11 of us I believe. We are heading out of Morris Point and staying in some sleepers. I've heard rumors of a bar out on the ice, but haven't seen any proof yet. Everybody in our group is throwing in 10 bucks for biggest fish so I'm gonna be working on winning that.

Lmao!! I would definitely leave the porn at home. The only poles I want my fishing buddies handling should have line and a hook attached to it.

Dale Doback: Dad, we're men. That means a few things - we like to s**t with the door open, we talk about p***y, we go on riverboat gambling trips, we watch porn, and we make our own beef jerky. That's what we do, and now that is all wrecked.

If any of the guys has a rod without line on it in his hand in my fish house will find his own ride home.

I have never rented a house , so I dont know about the bathroom situation. But I know when we take the wheel house with a bunch of guys, we bring a portable with a heater just for going #2. It goes a long way when 5 guys wake up and have a cup of coffee......You get the rest....Bring some kind of outdoor fun, we were so bored one time, we made a bocce ball set out of duct tape balls. have fun....

      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?
