Jerseys for St. Jude

A fundraising drive began on Sunday, January 23 to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Named “Jerseys for St. Jude”, the effort includes a series of tournament jersey auctions in addition to a drawing for free fishing gear and memorabilia.

Autographed jerseys of many touring pros, including Kevin Van Dam, Mike Iaconelli, Forest Wood, Anthony Gagliardi, Jonathon VanDam (Kevins Nephew), Clark Wendlandt, Dave Lefebre, Byron Velvick, Kim Bain-Moore, Jim Moynagh, Pam Martin Wells, Boyd Ducket and others, will be auctioned on HSO-Classifieds. A gift certificate for a free Gemini tournament jersey is also among one of the listings. Four to six jerseys will be auctioned each week through late-February. Prospective bidders should search key words “Jerseys for St. Jude” and/or the name of the angler they are interested in bidding on to locate the appropriate auction.

On deck for this week are past FLW AOY, FLW Championship Champion, Bassmaster Classic Champion and the only two women to fish the Bassmaster Classic. Anthony Gagliardi, Boyd Duckett, Brent Ehrler, Gary Dobyns, Kim Bain-Moore and Pam Martin Wells.

For those anglers wishing to contribute to St. Jude outside of the HSO-Classifieds auctions, donations will be accepted through: www.mystjudeevent.org/jersy4jude. For every $25 donated, one entry will be placed under the donor’s name for a drawing featuring several prizes:

1- Dobyns Savvy Series Rod.

1- American Rodsmiths Rod (donated by Legend Boats).

3- All-Terrain Tackle packs.

4-In-Depth Outdoors Hats & T-Shirts

Several autographed photos / trading card sets of various anglers.

Several other prizes will be added in the upcoming weeks. The actual date of the drawing will be announced in mid-February.

    • 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?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
    • I went ahead and watched some of the MLF coverage.  Wheeler didn’t make the cut but the bigger story was the Poche/Avera fallout.   Kinda funny listening to both sides of the story and putting together the scenario, reading between the lines.
