I am planning on coming down on the 5th, hitting a hockey game that night and checking out the show on the 6th. Gotta get over to the thorne booth and get some rods for the winter.....I am thinking a brand new 24" power noodle...:)

The main difference is the additional 500 watts and the better interference and seperation detail. On the surface it is still the same looking LX-5 unit as before... Stop by say hi... I will be there all three days in the booth.. Then I will also be out on the High Power Challenges.. I will be on Red and Gull this winter for those events..

The Arctic Armor suits -no. Last year the Ice Armor was on sale as they didn't move much due to the Arctic Armor suit. The Ice Armor was reduced quite a bit the last day from what I noticed as I worked there that day right across from one of the booths.

We will be at the show. Free Gloves and RFO hats while supply lasts. We are also participating in the Poker Run sponsored by IDI Gear. We are the largest stocking dealer of Arctic Armor in the Upper Midwest and will have all sizes and all colors in stock at the show from XS- XXXL.

Stop by and talk with TO, Matt, Katy and myself. If you haven't met all of us, we are the South Central Forum Sponsors.

We will also have Strikemaster re-conditioned augers and Nils Augers at the booth. Recieve a free 4 1/2" Nils hand auger ($89 value) with every Nils purchased.

See you at the show.

PS: We have also updated our web site and now have on-line ordering.

Joe

    • 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.
