Things I learned today...

[JohnMickish]

Today I learned to always MAKE SURE you have a set of spare batteries for the gps. I thought I had a spare set but must have used them. Got on the lake today and went to turn on the gps and the batts are dead. Did thru my portable to find the second set and they are gone. Lucky for me I have to much time on my hands and installed a cig lighter in my Eskimo QFII. (it runs off the space vex battery that also runs my lights) I also happened to have my 12 cord along so I wasn't totally SOL.

Here is the learning part. Carrying a spare set of batts is alot easier than walking around in circles dragging the behind me. I must have really looked like a fool!

What type of lights do you use? i have 2 rope lights yukon and its hard to see the hole

Ive got three of those cheap Gander rope lights wired in to a switch, a 28 led headlamp for a bicycle and a 5 led browning headlamp. It's bright enough in there to do brain surgery.
