I'm done at 11am tomorrow till Tuesday. Can't complain this year is much much different than last. My work is very flexible and is letting me work half days and adjusted my half day to be 9:30 to 1:30. I've moved twice this year, got married beginning of September and closed on a house 10 days later. Since then unpacking, fixing things and getting a house ready for winter.... I'm not sure I even care if I see a deer I think I'm looking more forward to some quiet peaceful mornings and nights in the stand for some me time without having to worry about anything else needing to get done for 2 weeks. Meat in the freezer would certainly be a bonus though wink

Not liking the 51, 53, 51 high temps forecasted with plenty of sun for Sat, Sun, Mon. That tells me night time rut activity as there will be little need for them to get to a field to soon as they'll be bedded enjoying the warm sun, but it only takes a moment, good luck guys.

Right on Finlander, I'm Finish as well and hope to fire a single 180 grain core-lokt pointed soft into the neck of a mature buck. If the neck isn't available I'll go with the traditional placement. Then to Frazee for processing saving some for the world's best jerky in Eagle Bend.

      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.

      New boat question

      By Wanderer · Posted

      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.

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      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?
