Over one foot of snow fell on southeast Minnesota on May 1 through May 3. The storm snarled roads, closed or delayed schools, and downed power lines. Daily and monthly snowfall records were set in numerous locations. The event will go into the record books as depositing Minnesota's heaviest 24-hour May snowfall totals ever.

Heavy May snow was reported in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. In Minnesota, the heaviest of the snowfall totals topped 14 inches in Steele, Dodge, Olmsted, Goodhue, and Wabasha counties. Snowfall totals in excess of eight inches were reported in Faribault, Freeborn, Mower, Waseca, Rice, Dakota, Washington, and Winona counties.

Holy buckets I am glad I was gone for the weekend and you guys got this all sorted out.  I hope we didn't lose anyone, great bunch of friends here.  A friend turned me onto this page a few years ago.  At first I just looked at the fishing regions stuff, then the classifieds.   Then I made a frig smoker and started looking at different sites online.  I realized there was a cooking thing here and dove into it.  Man what a storehouse of knowledge I found.  AND a great group of guys, maybe even a gal or two, who really knows.  Now this Good Morning thing has taken hold and it is one of my favorite parts of my day.  My wife thinks it is funny and great how I talk to you guys most mornings.  IT IS GREAT!  What a social group we have become.  Lots of humor and that is mainly what the hijacking is all about.  Simply humor!   We get it, maybe some don't but they will if they hang around and get to know us.  

Had a great weekend at my brothers, yup lots of wine and good food.  Had my first deepfried dill pickles too.  They were great!  Had a homemade ranch dressing that was awesome too.  Could have dipped a shoe in it and would have been good...  My brother got a real nice pool table so we played a lot and had a lot of fun and didn't have to dance since we kept busy doing that.  Did have some Outlaw Country playing though.  My brother did a pork loin on his Daniel Boone and we cooked the heck out of it.  Way overdone but we still ate it.  lol  I tried to explain how this group of comedians online has come to be a group of online friends and they sort of understood and thought it was pretty funny too.   I told them it all started with good recipes and smoking and sausage advice.  I told them a retired after 40 years of being a butcher had the best tips and ideas.  Sort of the sausage ring leader.  

Well keep up the good work all, nice to be back.  I am having 3 soft boiled eggs, tacked of course, and leftover NY strip done just right on the grill last night.  See ya all later, I am going to Bemidji to pick up a 14' boat for the early ice and late season here on the river.

OK, quickly here: On the run, typical Monday. Rain Saturday slowed any thoughts of fieldwork for a few days. Bill collecting (fun) and putting up with the nonsense some of these guys dreamt up over the weekend. Swell. Gotta scoot. :crazy:

Not so funny.  I know this will be deleted but I'm leaving HSO again.  This time for good.  nothing has changed.  Backroom deletes Reb's  complaint although nicely put just like they did to me a couple of years ago.  So Limit can change and delete posts but Reb cant even though he is the moderator of this forum and did a pretty dam good job.  I love the guys on this forum and have been positive all this time until Limit came on here and threw his weight around.  Ya I get it, and finally get it.  My information and others that contribute are just being used.  treat Reb like a low life because he  tried hard to get this right but that's not good enough for your little club in the backroom.  Delete his posts there and here on the forum along with mine when I spoke my opinion.  Go get some other guy,  I'm not your guy.  Nobody on here is appreciated and you can tell by those who left.  All this phony talk with the smiley face's is transparent.  Start treating posters who MAKE this thread equal to to some of these so called Pro staff moderators the same and maybe you will progress.  Limit gets away with his talk and others are treated totally different.  Good bye.

Yep everything was just fine until someone with control/power issues had to open its hole, shoulda seen it coming. Rh, I sure wish I could change your mind but I have a feeling a lot of us foodies might be right behind you. Stick around a little bit longer, maybe us regulars of the cooking threads can figure something out..

    • 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.
