Went over to Michigan yesterday morning to fish with my buddy Mike again. All I can say is WOW! If you guy's are planning to go over I would suggest to get there now... Fishing was fantastic and very steady from 120-190 fow. Flies and dogers were the trick. Never seen or caught any over 20lbs, but on this trip we had 6 in the boat over biggest at 26lbs! I ran over in July and the fishing was great, don't get me wrong, but this time the fish were much much larger.

Outdoor, Went out of Two Rivers again and yes I have a bug for salmon fishing. I'll pretty much make two runs over, but only stay for a half day. Works out well with Mike who loves to fish and take friends out on his boat.

Jim, Too bad about you not making it over there this year. It really is unbelievable. Looks like you've been doing pretty good up on the big lake and area. Made it up there once and the fishing was good for lakers.. Take care to all. SB

Awesome fish. I am heading to Lake Michigan tonight and will be on the water by 5:00 A.M. tomorrow. Will be there for 3 days. Hope we do not limit out too fast. I heard the shallow water has been warm, so we will also try the 120-180 foot range as you stated. I will post update on Tuesday. I can not wait to get on the water to catch them salmon. Nothing like it. I do not even want to fish for walleyes and muskie when I get back from the yearly trip to Michigan, just seems boring after the action out there. My friend was just out there and they had 30 in a day and a half had to leave early. They were catching them on spoons and Storm thundersticks with bigger trebles installed.

      New boat question

      By Wanderer · Posted

      That’s an interesting point.  While I understand how Amps work, I can’t say I’m fully versed in the draw of modern on board chargers.   By modern code, outdoor and outbuilding outlets should be 20 Amp.  If your outside or garage outlets are 15 Amp, they’re undersized.  But that is quite possible if the garage was built before that code became enforced.   With heavy use, you may not be able to keep up on daily charging without the 10 Amp per channel charger, however that’s with very aggressive use for consecutive days.  On our June muskie trip we run up to 15 hours a day for up to 7 days on a 24V Ulterra and by mid week we’re starting to see the batteries not reach full charge.  That’s a lot of bank running at nearly 2 mph on windy shores.   We charge at a dock with up to 6 boats per dock plugged in - some with 36 volt systems.  Now I’m not sure if all the outlets are on a dedicated circuit but I’m betting they aren’t.  But they’re all 20A outlets with a lot of draw on them.  At max draw, they’re not keeping up but also not tripping the breakers.   What I’m saying, without a technical review is: you’re probably fine either way.  You probably won’t tax your batteries so much that they can’t recover on a 5 Amp per channel overnight charge and a 10Amp per channel charger probably won’t be too much to plug into your 15A outlet - if it really is a 15A.  If you’re sure, you’re sure, but I would double check if you’re not 100%.

      Another question- I wil be running 24 volts on the trolling motor for this boat, what amperage onboard charger should I buy? Some have told me 10 amps per channel, but at full draw that would be 20 amps, and my outlets at home and where I plug in at the lake is only 15 amps, is 5 amps per channel enough to charge batteries overnite after using spotlock during the day? Thanks for the help.

      Got a look at a condor yesterday at Pinacles national park. This was the best I could zoom with my phone.
