John Zvorak and Mike Larson take the win two days in a row. The team won on the previous day on Washington/Stella, and came thru for the win on the second day on Clearwater with a very tough bite. Zvorak and Larson bested the field under some tough fishing conditions. The team reported catching all their fish by 10:00 am, fishing plastic on drop offs. This is the first time the team has fished Clearwater in 3 years. They had a game plan before the tournament and stuck to it, fishing jigs and plastics. They reported catching their fish off of the main lake. John and Mike brought 14.82 lbs of fish to take the win.

2nd place team, Zeppelin and Zeppelin with 13.90 lbs of fish. Wayne and Jason decided to go a little deeper than normal. They felt because of the tournament the day before, Clearwaters shallow fish may have had pressure on them. The wind was down so it helped the team. They put their boat in 12 feet of water and casted shallow and fished very, very slow. They caught their fish through out the day, but caught their big fish about midway thru the tournament. The team used soft plastics through out the day. The team didnt do much pre-fishing and the fish caught tournament day were not fish they had pre-fished for.

3rd place team, Peterson and Hefti with 13.21 lb of fish. Mike and Bob reported fishing a deep weed line and staying on the main lake all day. The team fished 3 spots all day, they caught their limit within the first twenty minutes of the tournament. An hour later reported catching a few more fish. This was the 2nd time the team has fished this lake. The team used black and blue jigs and green jigs. The team pre-fished one day.

    • 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.
