I better go and show off the new qf3 and the laska-brand flooring. However, I've got two problems. 1. I don't have an auger or a saw or even a shovel I guess and 2. I don't know how to throw a spear for the life of me. I am 0-3 right now. I can take care of #1 if my buddy comes along, but would appreciate your help with #2...maybe I can watch the masters throw the steel around for a while?

Hey guys, I am thinking about coming to the GTG if that's alright. I would like to meet the people that have been giving me all the advise, and I haven't been spearing in probably a month.

Are most of you going to be there Friday and Saturday, or just Saturday? I am trying to figure out when I should come down and if I will need to find a hotel room. Can't wait to stair through a hole for a few hours, and see how the pros do it.

This sounds like fun. I haven't speared a northern since the mid 80's when we used to go to Perch lake by Truman when I was in High School. I work about 4 miles from there so maybe if anyone wants to show my 10 year old son how it is done I might bring him over and let him check it out.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • 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?
