Tips for civilians from the military

Demonterville is a catch and release lake for Bass. I wouldn't eat any fish to save my life, YUK! I'ld rather catch a fish that puts up a fight than one that feels like a clump of weeds.

Hey WalleyeSlayer:

I've got a friend and sometime fishing buddy who I don't believe had been registered on this post, and who chides me about my love of bass and calls them grass carp.

I see you've only lately come to the post. You wouldn't have a place outside Roseau, a 14-foot Crestliner and a love for all things Canadian, would you?

Oops, cancel that question. I see from your profile you're not who I thought you might be.

Never forget: Grass carp are cool.

Bass are those bait stealin' bastards hanging out in all my walleye holes! (smalleyes) to be exact. Now i'm not much for politics but let me say this. This country and everything it stands for puzzles me at times but I live here, I love here, and I wouldn't give it up for anything. I've been known to be an upstart at times but what happened on 9/11 is just an example of what happens when you let your guard down and what we as a nation are up against. DON'T KID YOURSELF, THEY ARE OUT THERE AND THEY WILL TRY TO HURT US. Veterans, not a military man myself but you gave yourself in the name of my freedom and I thank you. BIM LADEN COULDN'T FISH HIS WAY OUT OF A PAPER BAG! This will be my only and last political post on this board.

    • 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
