It is quite apparent that you look but do not see and hear but, do not listen.

its amazing to see how far out this thread goes and how it has turned to a discussion about tournaments. Whereas it is about fees on tournaments. Not the whether tournaments are just or warranted. But, the fact another increase of a FEE. We can complain but, will it do any good probaly not. I do wonder how much the DNR is raising the pollution permit fee that 3M pays. I have heard it was 400 bucks- if that is true fees should be based upon impact to the water. Rather than because we can charge. I support NO fees period on any recreational sport. As we all have paid dues to get there. I would support more fees on pollution. Then we’ll be back to economics- 3M and others like them will move to China if the FEES warrant it. Then we will all be fishing!

The question is not the tournaments but, rather what does the DNR going to do with the money? As we have had everything under sun taxed and fee’d to the hilt I am growing sick of living in Mn. Everything since Pawlenty came has been nothing but pay-plenty. Unfortunately, most of the working peons are lucky to get a 3% raise and if they do they hammered with 30% Medical care costs not paid by employers. Some say what is a couple of bucks here and there to do what we like to do. The couple of bucks turns into many bucks to do anything. Hopefully this is not considered political! But, the fees are political!

thanks – looks like I’ll be spending more money to get the map reader and card hook ups. Lowrance is not stupid. Its like I downloaded Internet Explorer 7 right after it came out- cost me $300. to get my computer right well, mostly right after.

the best contrary to other posts is a Quantum fast cast-around 25 bucks at wally world. The best advice with all spinning reels buy a new one every couple of years.

tell me more- is that where you disconnect it from the battery and then reconnect-if yes, I have done that.

fuses are good and terminator is good- and I’ll check the placement of it but, I think it is correct. I have not rechecked the connections- thanks will let you know.

I really feel for you as you can also download a worthless program: gitmore 2.1 as gitmore 2.1 really is a version of getless 3.1 the best advice for download is honeydoo 4.1 and yesdear 5.6 should relieve your problem although vistagirlfriend has some advantages but also comes with alimony 9.1
