My Fish Toys saw has seen 7 years of service and it was time to get it sharpened so I sent it out to Wayne at Fish Toys and I just got it back and WOW what a great job and the turn around time was great.

Bring on the next season I'm ready to cut some holes grin

Thanks Fish Toys

I need a new one, it's over ten yeas old, never been sharpened. I found out this winter that the handle can't withstand being run over by the truck.

Next year a trip to NoDak or Montana is in order.

Spearhead I think I have a extra handle iffin you want it.

I'm going to build a floor for the hub, I have to finish the seasr I just build for my self, but I can't decide between gun blue or powder coat black finish. Other then making more decoys, I that's it for next year. I have to finish putting together my wireless remote spinner, I'm soldering wires together now, but it works great.

I appreciate the offer but it may just be time I fork out for a new one. I may recycle my old handle into a decoy or two so it lives on forever. And may make a new handle for the old one as a backup

      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?

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      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.
