I just enjoyed a Little Debbie Nutty Bar. Chocolate covered wafers with peanut butterish filling. Hmmmmm good and only $1.39 a box. Works out to about 12 cents per individual Nutty Bar. Soooo good and soooooo cheap.

Anyone else have a favorite cheap food?

After the 8000.00 investment in hunting supplies (yeah honey, I think I've finally got everything I need ;\) ) a venison sausage costs about a buck-a-bite.

Ramen, and other asian noodles (look carefully at those packages in the asian markets, there's some incredible stuff for cheap) are a real value. Throw away that seasoning package though. It has your recommended daily allowance of sodium, but only if you measure it out over 2-3 days.

Try the rice noodles in the cello package. There might not be english instructions on the bag. Just boil until al-dente.

Al dente, the Italian terrorist...... grin.gif

I bought a shotgun for $120 when I was 18.

I used the same gun for over 20 years. I have another shotgun now...and it is another "cheap" one.

Yes, I have to buy shells...but when you add all the deer I shot it those 20 years along with pheasant, ducks, etc that gun has got for me...pretty cheap food. We also process our own meat.

That gun has shot over 30 deer and hundreds of ducks.

Road kill.....

Done that. Actaully pretty tasty.

When I was in college I hit a little button buck. I was driving an old Oldsmobile with a real metal bumper. Poor guy didn't have a chance. I found him crumpled up in the ditch. I called the sheriff and he said it was OK to take it home. So I feld dressed him and had him ground up into venison burger. I worked at a grocery store at the time and the butchers ground it for free. I think the key to road kill is to make sure it's fresh. \:D\:D

I love the canned spicy chipotle refried beans with a ton of cheeze in between to tortillas in a frying pan... probably costs 6 bucks for 5-6 meals... mmm... with hot sauce... i'm hungry now.

either that, or crappie... that only costs gas and minnows.

Totino party pizzas were one of my favorite. Before they got popular, we had a store in town that had them in a big bag of non individually wrapped, there were about 30 of them in the box. The box of them costed $5.

      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?
