How Cool Is FishingMN?


Guest

Recommended Posts

Very cool.
I joined North American Fishing Club and while cruising their site as a member I landed in their forums area. It has the same format as this one but with one big difference; Minnesota Nice.

They weren't nearly as open, or as friendly. They have a national format, and I'm sure that's great and useful for folks travelling, but there wasn't the comeraderie of knowing that you're communicating with neighbors. They spoke of scams on their forums, and got downright rude at times (worse than our banters over in Political Power) and I didn't feel comfey there at all. Heck, I even have a different handle over there 'cause well, I feel that "web-caution" over there that I don't feel quite as much over here.

I probably won't go back there for much unless I need something, but whenever I have a tip, or a hotspot, or just wanna brag - it'll be here.

Peace Ya'll,

Yeah FM is a nice place to talk about things related to fishing and hunting. I enjoy talking to various people about experiences and tactics. I would love to meet some of these people but my schedule is a tough one to work out. grin.gif Anyways thanks to all who make it a great site.

Maybe someday I'll run into a couple of ya.

Well believe it or not Rob I am a lifetime member of the NAFC; but I don't waste any time on there message board. I've been to pretty much all the other message boards and I've stopped going. FM.com is the best by far. The really well known walleye one is rude and obnoxious... Anyhow, I fully agree with RobertC: This is the place to go to.

I pretty much stick to two sites...This one and a Catfish one from down south. Fishingminnesota has become a real popular place to go and so has the other one. The only thing that bugs me a little are some of the soap operas, but that won't go away anyhow.....Maybe minnows (do) grow up?

WET NETS! FM IS COOL

    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • 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.
