I had to think about that question for a minute. My body is at work but my mind is definitely on the lake. If my boss is reading this, I should be back by Monday, Tuesday at the latest.

Guilty as charged! blush.gif

My brother often asks- "what do you think people did at work before the Internet?" I guess I can only assume they actually worked! grin.gifgrin.gifgrin.gif

Have a great weekend everybody.

guilty I think.

Can I consider this fishing research and say I'm not working? grin.gif It might make me feel better because I don't get to fish this weekend! mad.gif

I am working, but surfing this site is kinda my job as a network administrator. I guess you could say I am monitoring our internet connection to make sure it is running at optimal performance. laugh.gif

Er, not me, but I was here early and often.

My function got eliminated Monday morning after Easter.

As of 7/29/05, I'm still on severance/vacation but that time is running out.

By current trade, I'm a graphic designer; most recently with a central Minnesota private college that eliminated my position. Long story, but one of my current freelance clients is putting together Wisconsin Waterfowl Association magazine.

I've been with WWA for about 7 years. Interestingly, their board had the foresight to clean up accounting and avoid a near shutdown like Minnesota Waterfowl Association (their top guy was making $57,000 according to a recent StarTribune story). WWA's board recognized that it needed to tighten up accounting in order to get right with government money. It worked, they're doing great.

Oh, and I'm looking for a new job, too.

      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.
