Thorne Bros Midwinter Sale and Art Exhibit - Sat. Feb 2


Recommended Posts

Thorne Bros will play host to a Midwinter SALE and Art Exhibit...

What better way to celebrate the midwinter doldrums by showing off some art, discounting everything in the store, and offerring up FREE food to all who attend? \:\) (for those who are there between 11am-2pm)

Don Farrell, Thorne Bros Pro Staffer, is going to exhibit his new artwork throughout Thorne Bros on Saturday, February 2. Don is a photographer who turns his work into high-quality prints for the avid outdoorsman. Hunting and fishing prints. This will be a new endeavor for Thorne Bros and we're excited to show off and sell Don's artwork.

There will be appetizers served between 11am-2pm. There will also be music and a whole lot of fishing and outdoors chat!

So, mark your calender for Feb 2 and stop in at Thorne Bros/Fly Angler to check out the new artwork and join in on the fun!

Any questions please give Thorne Bros a ring... 763-572-3782

    • 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.
