Zvorak/Larson brought an impressive 5 fish limit of largemouths weighing 19.60 to the scales. John and Mike caught their fish on lake Stella in 4 - 8 feet of water, with a variety of plastic baits. The team is familiar with the water but did not pre-fish much. The team pre-fished separately and were on about a 3 lb average apiece and were happy with the days catch. The team had to move around a few times, all their fish were not located in the same area. The team reported catching fish all day. With a great tournament win comes tournament expenses. The team reported taking out their prop going thru the shallow channel in Stella.

Second place team, Dvorak/Jensrud also needed a big bag to come up with 2nd place 18.74 for a 5 fish limit. Tony and Ken visits Washington Stella about twice a year. The team doesn't feel like they have fished the lake enough to be comfortable on it. The team reported catching fish on both lakes, the fishing very slow with plastics. The team didn't catch any fish for the first three hours. The team caught their fish very shallow. The team would like to thank their Mom and Dad.

The first event of the U.S. Angler's Choice Glacier Lake division yielded some very nice bags of fish with about 90% of the field bringing a limit to the scales.

    • 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.
