Maybe I'm just all emotional and s*** 'cause I quit drinking, but FishingMN.com is the best. Until I started fishing hard and having some success this summer (MN is very different water from everywhere else I've lived), I thought Minnesnowta was my reward for some hideous crime. I can't remember how I got linked here...oh yeah, it was trying to find info on carp feeding habits after I noticed some largemouths schooling behind feeding carp. Anyway, Thanx. I'll do my best to patronize the sponsors.
Peace and wet lines,

Minnesota is a great place to be. We can't ask for more lakes and we get to open water fish and ice fish, best of both worlds. Welcome to the land of fishing and I'm glad you joined the forum.

Good fishin, Matt.

QUICK CLARIFICATION:
I grew up in Vermont, and then lived in Colorado and Florida. I couldn't get used to the flat, and the L O N G, sub-zero winters here. We came here for family and security for raising kids and let me tell ya, I'm glad my kids are growing up here. Good economy, good land, good air and good people. My truck is gonna last a lot longer too, without all those pesky hills to wear down the tranny wink.gif
Ever since I was a lil' kid, I wanted to feel a Northern Pike on my line, and this year I've nailed about a dozen. Still haven't had one over 3', but it's just a matter of time.

Your insinuating only riff raff watch college hockey? I totally disagree. The riff raff could not afford it. I saw nothing but classy people when I was at the Xcel Center last spring as we watched the Golden Gophers take the national title.

MAN ! This is great. A semi-emotional post about my gratitude to the Fishing MN family and staff, and about how fishing in MN so fantastic has turned into a thread about college hockey!!
MINNESOTA IS GREAT !!! A Wood tick on the scrotum is still enough to make me wanna put a few more thousand feet between me & sea level, though.:eek

    • 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
