Yeah........i do like to ride hard, but could tone it down for a HSO ride!!

gr8, just jerking your chain! I do think when you ride with a lot of newer people that you should take it easier the first time out! wink

What about a preliminary ride this year for FM'ers (HSO)?

If we could plan this soon is anyone up for it, I think we should make the riding easy with some access to Mudd for (GR8ice) just kidding....

Everyone can look at the DNR wesite and give some ideas for trails or a weekend and lets do this.

Someone has to set a date to go for. I started a post like this for a FM snowmobile outting last winter and had lots of talkers at first but no one could come up with a good date for everyone. We ended up going with just a few guys and it turned out to be one of the best rides for snow and comaraderie I had taken in years! wink

My wife and I will be staying at McQuiods on Mille lacs over the weekend of July 4th. We are going to hit the Soo Line South for the 1st time. It looks pretty straight and flat, but we are running out of new places to go in MN, haha. Is there anything we should know about the area? Do most of the towns along the trail sell gas?

    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • 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?
