For those of you in Northern Iowa, SE and southern MN and western, we will be at the Northbridge Mall in Albert Lea this coming weekend, both Sat. and Sun, Oct 16 and 17. We will have all sizes at the show for the Camo and Red/Black suits. If you want to see what the PLUS suit is all about, we will have one on display.

So stop on in, try them on for sizing. We will be set up for you to take immediate delivery.

See you there.

No size chart that I know of. If you tell your size I think any of us that have the suits would be able to help you choose the right size ..... although the best way to go of course is to try on a suit before you buy just to make sure.

Had a successful trip to North Dakota in my Arctic Armor. While the weekend was pretty warm, our first day afield leaving the truck read 29 degrees, so I was happy to have it packed. Plus its so light that you won't stick out and be all puffy when you put your waders on. We carried into this spot, so I needed a place for calls, shells, my cell phone, wallet, and shooter's gloves. Thankfully Arctic Armor is loaded with lots of handy pockets. Everything fit and I was set for the day. I'd like to see some shell loops in the future, but otherwise, it passed the test with flying colors.

So far it has passed the test stand bowhunting and sitting in the duck blind. I'll get some more use out of it this fall and then it's on to the hard water.

    • 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.
