MN Fisher

Add in the Patriarch 7.1 I purchased used a bit ago and the Supreme-30 my MIL gave me - and this is the (planned) sum total of my purchases this winter...rest of my money goes into the boat. Fury 765FLIP 4ea RES in 1/2 oz 4ea Terminator 1/2 oz Swim Jigs A new inflatable PFD Ya, the bait-monkey is being held down by the boat-monkey.

In MN there's a few different regs. Muskie, catfish, splake, brookies, brownies and rainbows must have head and tail intact for measurement Bullhead, sunnies and crappies - fillet-away without restrictions All other species - no more than 2 fillets per fish...extras will count as another fish...1" square piece of skin for ID purposes. Though Sauger without head and tail will be counted as Walleye

Rattlin' Rap 05 & 07 Storm Arashi Vibe 09 Bill Lewis Mini-Trap Picked up some 1/2oz RES with a BPS gift card the wife gave me for my B-Day - we'll see how those do next year.

Capital One card - cash back, total protection...pay off the purchases ASAP...just like using a debit card with more security.

It has been pretty light. Even Scheels BF sale is scarce in fishing gear, and most of that is clothing or ice-fishing stuff.

That's what I did in the canoe. The 'new' boat will have a livewell...

Don't forget to check with your state DNR/DFW/whatever - Minnesota requires a permit with associated fees paid to the state for tournaments. Plus, depending on the size of the lake, there's a limit to how many tournaments can be held in a year as well as the total number of days.

If it's a Lithium battery - 7-7.5 hours...don't want to go to 0amps If it's a Lead-Acid - 4 hours max.

You have to send an e-mail to diawa @ Legacy's address to get the code

Tentative being the operative word. They won't ship any until ALL backordered items are in - I cancelled part of last years order because one item of three kept getting pushed out. So mid-March I told them to forget that item, they shipped the rest. Academy had the item in stock, got it in two days while TW was saying a month more wait on it.

I ordered on Monday Rod should be here tomorrow Rest should be here Saturday That's if UPS tracking is accurate

Some things on TW ARE on sale, but because of agreements with the vendor they can't advertise or even show the marked-down price. Put it in your cart, start the checkout with PayPal - before you commit, you should see the sale price...if you don't, then it definitely isn't on sale. You can back out of the PayPal payment and pay with normal credit/debit card once you've confirmed.

Tackle Warehouse, Bass Pro Shop/Cabelas, Legacy all have sales going on now.

I use a medium/fast (Fury 703C) for my jerks, squarebills and lipless. My 705CB is for regular crankbaits, Zara Spooks and Whopper Ploppers/Choppos. If you're set on the Fury - go with the Kaden 735CB over the Fury - $151 with TW's 20% off so just a titch over your limit...but worth it.

It's called BFS - Bait Finesse System - small reels, light power rods. Far as rods. Kokanee series has 8' Light and Medium Light - Moderate-Fast casting rods. https://www.lamiglas.com/collections/kokanee-trout-trolling-rods

dunno - haven't tried

Hope it's a big screen - I wouldn't be able to see it on my Galaxy A-51 phone.

I dunno if the app can run on the Striker - haven't tried it with my Striker Plus 7cv I do run the app on my 8" Galaxy Tablet.

No previous plans to be with anyone else - so it's just the wife and I as well.

Gods, I remember those when I took Fortran back in college...'floor sorts' were never fun.

Yes you can - basically you're creating your own maps with contours. You can set waypoints, follow courses you've recorded - everything the Echomaps do...you just have to create/download community maps instead of having pre-loaded maps in the unit. From Garmin's site - this for the Striker 7sv - the 7cv has the same storage "QUICKDRAW CONTOURS Nobody knows the waters you fish better than you. With the STRIKER Vivid 7sv fishfinder, you can store up to 2 million acres of maps with 1’ contours."

Only those that have been uploaded to the Garmin Community, made by others using Quickdraw.

They're at least putting up stuff on YouTube MidwestOutdoors TV on YouTube

...and you end up with no eyebrows...

Nope - that's a weightless T-Rig. Zoom also has a Finesse Worm - shorter and slimmer than the Trick Worm...I use Finesse Worms for both wacky and drop-shot/split-shot
