    Livewell Light color

    I’ve been adding some LED lights inside my boat for nighttime fishing. I’m looking to add some to my livewell to see better as it is black plastic. Wondering what color would be best? Thinking of red or blue…..not wanting it to be too harsh?

    Howdy!!

    I haven’t been logged in for quite awhile. Years probably. Is there anyone still around from the early days??

    Running Lights on trailer

    My running lights are working intermittently on my trailer and I’m looking for some direction. They will work sometimes and then stop working once turn the truck off and come back and occasionally come back on while driving. I started by checking grounds and looking for wiring issues. I have a...

    Launch to myself!

    Packers bye week....perfect fall day. 33F in the morning turned to mid 50's and a light breeze, and I had the launch and the lake to myself

    Engine mount 80lb Minn Kota

    I have an engine mounted 80lb thrust Minn Kota hooked up to 4 group 27 deep cycles. They are set up in 2 12 volt banks with 2 deep cycles in each bank. Then the banks are wired in series to get 24v. Today while trolling I lost power. I turned the motor off from the remote at the helm and...

    Automatic boat latch for launch/retrieval

    Has anyone used one of these before? I don't often fish alone, but when I do I have a decent system for getting the boat launched and retrieved but if it works as advertised this would be significantly easier.... http://www.boat2trailerhookup.com/

    Trying out the GoPro

    The video isn't anything crazy, but was impressed with the video quality.....specifically when the sun gets right behind the boat and the light change at the end when getting into the harbor

    Meet Avery....my newest fishing buddy

    It's been awhile since I have posted.....and with good reason. 6 months ago my wife and i had this little bundle of joy. After a C-section and spending a couple weeks at Childrens Hospital due to gluclose problems and some complications from being early and small (4 lbs 7oz), she has become a...

    Man did I get lucky....

    Brought the boat home from storage today and happened to notice grease all over the rim and my dust cap was off. At first I figured the cap had just come loose and I would just have to get a new one. I then noticed that the spindle wasn't centered in the hub and realized that the rear seal was...

    Low Battery Alarm

    I have a Huminbird 997c and a Huminbird 597ciHD at the helm, and both have low battery alarms. I had it set at 12.0 volts at the start of this season. On the first couple of trips, it never went off. My starting battery (which also runs all of the accessories) started to go bad sometime after...

    Finally! Its been a long two years....

    2 years ago, I made the choice to go back to school and finish a degree that I never finished. I originally went to college for architecture and urban planning, but switched to business and then never finished because I decided to work instead. I started getting promoted and the $ made me...

    Backup Camera

    Before the upgrade there was a post about backup cameras, and I thought I would post a picture of what my after-market camera shows at the landing....obviously not everyone has one on the older vehicles and this gives an idea of what you would see if anyone was looking to add one for this purpose.

    Bought a smoker over winter.....

    Re: Bought a smoker over winter..... Made some venison hot sticks yesterday. Wonder how many people still have and use these old cast iron stuffers. Not sure how old mine is, buts its been in the family forever. Only date stamp is from a patent in the 1860's.
