You still can….just scratch a check.

Ultrex!

After the FW stopped hyperventilating I thought I made out something like “you’re not spending that much, you already have a boat, divorc….” blah, blah, blah.

Let’s just say it ain’t over.

Leeches and crawlers. I am running low on 3/4 ounce jigs too.

I bought a bunch of bobbers for my kids since they were very difficult to find last summer.

Told the FW I’m getting some new line.

i’d like a new locator for the boat…..like a helix 5 with lake chip capabilities…..and a new GPS.handheld version. i wasnt told DIivorce like EPG yet……

New boat for me. Have had it out on the water in chamberlain SD and the fox river in DePere already.
Recon 895 DC with a 150 go Suzuki on it.
Heading to Green Bay on Thursday for a few days.
Then put it away for the year and head to south Texas for work.

I got a boat. The wife says I’m done buying toys for the year now. ps Thanks Dean and the crew at TBC!

Haha. Hard to beat a new boat purchase.

I bought a warrior 2090 last fall, so nothing too big. Upgraded a couple units to some new lowrances. Next big thing I upgrade will be my truck… So not directly fishing related, but it plays an important roll lol

Just got rigged up with some new graphs, ulterra and on-board charger…. I think I am done spending money for awhile

Thinking on new power plant for the SCRATCHER brand new Suzuki 60 hp

Will be interesting to see humminbirds version of live. Some rumors are it could be a mega 360 live. Guess we will wait and see.

Myself I got a new helix 9 si mega

Lovin the boat and gear pics!

Traded the work trailer for a 14′ and small Suzuki.

Mom and her hubby bought a new 30′ pontoon, plan on breaking that in thoroughly with the kids this summer

I like it a lot. It handles very well. I don’t think I have had a boat with more storage then this one. It definitely has no shortage in that department. The rod locker is over 9’ long.
With the trailer they match it up with it’s a breeze to load.
It has a rear deck extension. That when folded up has two seats under it. I didn’t even bother buying 2 more pedestals for the 4 person seating with that option in it.

The only thing I didn’t like is the two pedestals behind the councils were only 12” pedestals. So I put in a pair of adjustable ones that stretch out to 18”.

Put an order in to alumacraft today for a matching fourth seat so on the rare day the whole family comes along they all have a seat.

I ended up buying the Voyageur last year so far I love it, just like the way you can secure the electronics better on the competitors.

Been going back and forth with buying a new boat. It’s hard to justify spending 90k+ on a new one, when the one I have does exactly the same thing. I mean the extra 2ft and the extra 150hp of the 622VS would be nice. I don’t know if I’m getting older and wiser or what, but I’m a lot more responsible with what I buy nowadays.

I did put all new Helix on this year. I finally made the switch from my old Lowrance units. Went with a Helix 12 at the console and 7s at the bow and stern. I wasn’t going to put one on the stern, but I was out with a buddy who has that and it was nice that he could be anywhere in the boat and easily see a graph.
