I love your thinking Hop! If the selection group picked me to be in, I'd hope for the 12 seed. Gotta love that 12 vs 5 match-up. An upset special in the making. I'd need plenty of luck against these heavy hitters. I'll be waiting for selection sunday.

If Gander Mountain, Reed's or Fleet Farm want to be a Corporate Sponsor, that would increase the Scholarship fund...

" Gander Mountain's 1st Annual Battle of The Guides"

" Reed's 1st annual Clash of Brainerd's Fishing Guides"

" Fleet Farm's 1st annual Lakes Area Fishing Championship"

What a great way to help the community, advertise your business and promote the area. Children benifit(scholarship), Guides benifit( business), Charities( donated money)

Let's start seeding.........

Jason, I think having a blind draw would be best. We could seed the next year, after we have the first year results.

I think I could sit at Zorbas and have some cocktails, watching the weigh-in.

Maybe, it's

"Zorba'z 1zt Annual Big BoyZ FiZhing Contezt!!!!!!!!!"

      Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.

      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?
