Woops!!

I got my paperwork today for the Banquet.

And there it is in big bold letters.

All adults must be members to attend.

You also need to send in your dinner reservations asap.

So it looks like you have to be a member before you get to the banquet pauly.

The membership is $10 for a year and the banquet ticket is $15.

yep merks mom won a camera and my wife won a ladies watch.

This banquet was a really great time and my wife and I met a lot of really great people and laughter was pretty much non stop. The meal was exellent also and man did they give away alot of prizes. I would highly recomend that if your not a member you should become one.

My son had a great time-they give away prices to all of the kids under 16. We need to get the kids involved to keep this sport going. Dinner was good and there were a lot of great prices. I finally got to meet the infamous (I mean famous) Merkman. It was good to see Elwood also, I really thought I had the winning ticket for the fish house-maybe next year Good to see you guys won some prices-my son took home a Crossman BB gun and was just tickled, was asking when the next one was

    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • 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?
