Re: trolling motor battery life

Heya! I always hate to bother everyone on the forum with these newbie questions, but I would certainly appreciate if anyone could give me a general idea of that to expect in regards to run time. I think a big/great part of sites like this is people asking questions..we all get to learn something, ho...

Re: Any YouTube fishing channels watchers here?

Re: That was close! Thank god for boat rules!

wow! glad you are OK! I would say that saving that stuck hook is not really worth it, you don't have to dig to deep to find serious injury or death with similar situations this guy died: http://6abc.com/archive/6295825/ this guy was injured (warning graphic pic): http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...

Re: Watching 39 hours?

39 hours has been awesome so far!

and so is pretty much all of uncut angling. it seems to be always entertaining, well edited, well shot..and usually at least somewhat informative. well worth checking out. https://www.youtube.com/user/uncutangling

Solo 'outpost' fishing camp?

Heya! I'm looking to go up north to do a fly-in (or boat-in) fishing trip in end of Aug or Sept,which is fairly last minute. ideally it would be an 'outpost' cabin so that I either have a small lake to myself, or if it is boat-in, at least not a lotta people around. I'm having troubles finding a pla...

I threw some rocks at a high height, and they didn't start breaking through until ~30 feet out. there was ...

Re: Rod Holders - advice, install, positioning

I've been pretty happy with these: http://www.basspro.com/Cannon-SideMount-Rod-Holder/product/59200/ . (they have them at Sail/lebaron's as well) I have them mounted on top of my gunwales on either side of the boat. I've used them for trolling musky and walleye for a few years now, and they have hel...
