I never made it over there. I turned around at the highway and headed back after fishing the waterway all day. Caught 2 small large mouth bass and a few Pike. The wife and I agreed we would come back, but not to fish.

I haven't been able to locate anything other than pike so far on Mullett Lake, one more try tomorrow and then off to give Burt Lake a try.

Thank you for the suggestions!

My family and I are going to stay off Indian River in a rental with a slip for a few days. We are planning to bass fish, but we will perch or walleye fish if bass fishing is slow. Anybody on the forum here have advice for where to fish this large area or any advice or suggestions for me. I...

Where you located?

May and October are not very warm. Our Mother's Day fishing trip this last weekend, we all had on winter jackets, it was 38° when we hit the water. Brrrrrr!

I had the same issue! I know I'm late here, but I have found something that works great and was free for me. Maybe useful for others who stumble across this post like I did. The suction tubing used at hospitals / home health for suction canisters. I get the extra tubing that was not used in...

Absolutely get it fixed. May I make a suggestion? Tell them not till the off season though. Don't give up any of your summer for this, which in my opinion looks like your fine to use it. I don't think you have a leak from what I see. Have them fix it during the winter. Dealership might...

Bum sagging, don't like the looks but I bet the performance is awesome.

I haven't had any issues so far. There's pretty good clearance between both the arm and the head of the unit and the fence. I could always throw a strap between the arm/head and the eyelet on the toon on that sideto keep from going backwards. edit: I put a strap on per your suggestion.

I went with a 57 inch. The depth of the trolling motor is adjustable. You can always run it up a little shallower if need be but can't add extra length later. If I were to do it over again I would keep the same length on my Garmin Force.

I have a 3D printer. If anyone can get me the thickness / basic dimensions I could make it.

Your post was where I got the intuition on how to make mine. Yours looks great, thanks for sharing .

Thanks guys, it was fun to do. I think it turned out pretty good. I ran dual 2awg wire from the Garmin up front to the back where I have a single Nextgen 36V lithium battery. Their stealth charging system will charge the lithium battery off the main battery as needed till the main battery...

Garmin Force trolling motor 57" with a Garmin 10" fish finder. Made an aluminum hitch style mount that is quick connect, and so are the electrical connections. It uses a hitch style locking pin to keep it on the boat and hopefully from walking away lol. It works with the trailer so I don't...
