Scent lok tote


walleyehunter80

Recommended Posts

Ok I have used scent lok for 3 years now, I have only had the medium weight stuff for mid to late fall. I just purchased 2 late season full suits. I have always kept my mid weight stuff in a air tight bag. Now that I have so much more and there is not enough room in my bag, I was thinking about buying two of those scent lok totes for 79.99 to keep all my gear in.

Question 1: Do you have/use these totes?

Question 2: if so is it worth the money and would you buy them again?

For the price I am leaning toward getting a plain old Rubbermaid tote for 20.00 that is big enough for all my stuff and just throw in a scent wick maybe earth or dirt smell.

What do you think?

I have the tote and I like it for fitting all my gear in it and how the lid locks down.

Does it work? Well if you find something that is air tight it will be the same only difference is the carbon piece on top but when I put my gear in there I open up some Earth Scents to cover anything anyways. I wouldn't buy it again.

Make your own! I too looked at the scent lok totes, but I ended up just buying some plastic totes of the same size from wally world for 10$ each. I bought the ones that have the handles that keep the lid on. Bought one for the early season "light" clothes and one for the heavier clothes for later season.

I also bought some rubber door/window seal and super glued it around the rim of the tote, so it is basically water and air tight. Now I have 2 totes that are air/water tight for under 30$.

    • 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?
    • 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.
