Sick of the heat and milfoil


ATM

Recommended Posts

Too Hot, It was approaching "HOT" on Vermillion yesterday (Sat). The wind died about noon and I got the first taste of the Dog Days. The wind picked up later in the day and the smallmouth got on a good bite which took my mind off the heat. Fall fishing is good with me. It's way to early for me to even think about ice.

We have been typically getting down to the mid- to high 40's at night and the upper 70's to lower 80's during the day here. This summer has been great, I really can't complain. Last year and the year before we had numerous days in the 90's crazy.

Try fishing the river after midnight. Around 3:00am as of late, the winter jacket is on ones mind for the next trip grin.

Been that way most of the year.

That's exactly what I'm talking about....this morning felt a lot like fall is coming, compared to the ridiculous dewpoints we've had the past few weeks and you wake up to a rain forest like steam hanging in the air. 70 degrees is one thing....70 degrees with 70 degree dewpoints is another! You guys up north live in a different climate than down here. Love that cool, dry, northern air blowing in. Bring it on!

It's funny, the Laurentian Divide is just a little bump but it seems to have some sort of influence on the weather. I have actually been going around the house at night and shutting the windows otherwise it gets too chilly crazy

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
