Lost a rod case with two rods/reels in it with about $30 worth of line in it also in the channel of South Lindstrom and Chisago this week. Went back an hour later, only one or two people had left, talked to the people around me and someone leaving, everyone said they hadn't seen it. My fault for not looking back I guess. I've seen like five posts since about people losing stuff on the ice. I'll also post on here if I find anything!

i lost a small tackle box a fue years ago. it eas full of buckshots and other spoons. i looked hours and hours on the ice. and i knew exactly where i lost it because i set it on the tail gate and drove my truck 100'. but i didnt notice it was gone till the next day.

i posted it on fishing minnesota one night and the next day a guy that lives across the lake from my dad called me and said he and his buddy found my tackle box. i couldnt beleve my ears. and they didnt even want the reward money i offered. there are still honest people around.

I had my otter lodge fall off my trailer this year on I-35. It had all of my gear in it. I got a call the next day from the State Patrol, someone had found it, he found my DL# on the card on the shack, called TIP (he did not know who else to call but hey, it worked), and they called the State Patrol who let me know how to get a hold of the guy.

There are good people left in the world, I have proof of it!!! Much thanks to you Scott, if you read this site!!!

    • 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
