I’m in a vehicle for a couple of hours a day for 1-hour stretches. I have commuted with some real pile of crap cars and trucks. I purchased a used dodge charger and for the first month, I could hardly get out of the dang car my back hurt so bad.
One day, I was driving and started thinking about my posture. Is there anything keeping me from being straight? I made a few seat adjustments that had minor positive impact. I then realized my problem. For years I always drove with the sun visor down because the defrost dried my eyes out. I realized that the distance between the dash and the open visor was minimal. I was actually crouching my body down to see through the gap. Yes, it was simple enough to put the visor in the closed position.

Dont overlook the obvious sometimes.

This one will hurt…
Thanks for posting.

Area 157 a tad north of Grasston!
Lots of deer around this year. A quick drive at dusk last night produced 4-7 deer in the green fields. Lots of little bucks that will get wasted by various hunters this weekend.

We hunt my land out the back door with my family and a couple of friends.

I’m there to teach and watch em grow! Its not about killing a deer.

I put mine in the house in 1997, and it worked perfectly for years. About five years ago, I struggled with keeping it lit. I tried to do it myself and just couldn’t get it to work. I finally got a recommendation for Perfect Flame out of Princeton, MN. This guy might have shaken his DIY head at me a couple of times and told me to leave it to the pros. In the end it has work flawlessly for the last 5 years again. I would give it a shot, call a professional.

I traded my 1999 lund pro v with a 150 opti for a 2021 1875 Lund Impact with a 150 proxs.

I have two Helix 9’s, ultera, lure lockers, cover, four upgraded seats, vinyl floor, and flip-up rear seats. I’m sure I am forgetting something.

I dont get wet, its a great quality Lund ride. Even to the point when I bring people out, they comment on the ride. I think people get wet due to the driver and how they handle waves.

It serves as a mostly fishing boat with 30% sandbar boat. I can get 48mph out of it and is plenty fast for me.

The rail system for attachments took me a bit to get used to but works.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I’ve been on Big Sandy (Eagle Point Resort) for almost 25 years. It takes less than 30 minutes to unpack, mow the lawn, hook up the boat, grab a beer/cocktail, and sit by a fire. We don’t have bad neighbors, but if we did you walk to the next camper.

We do events for the 4th of July, smelt fry, no tournament tournament pike contest, Halloween, and fall soup cook-off.

Rent is around $2,800, extra for dock and electricity.

If I don’t like what I’m living in, I buy a new one.

Stays year round and we need to keep tabs on it or we get charged county taxes.

The easiest way to get into a seasonal site is to buy an existing camper. Sell if needed. If your seasonal campsite doesn’t have a waiting list, keep looking. Good seasonals have waiting lists. If you want a better spot, bug the owner until you get one.

I have no intentions of moving

A good neighbor and nothing to entice them will at least get you to your destination with a clear mind. After three teenagers… if they want to do something, they will figure out a way.

Great Ideas!

Looks like my pricing is in line with everyone else.

Any chance you have a new mapping card in the G4 unit?
Take the mapping cards out and power up again.

I have a similar problem with a G4 unit and lakemaster card.
It goes away when I take the card out.

Two part epoxy and its fixed.

Final Answer

You can find a free or almost free gas auger all over.

what do you have to lose, other than your right arm when it catches?

@suzuki
Yes, 10 plus miles but you might have to walk. A good sand wagon that works in sand will help.
We got there around 8pm and had good parking with a short walk.

Buddy and I pulled 24 gallons of smelt last night. I got 2.5 hours of sleep and headed into work. I am feeling it!
I gift most of mine with 4 gallons held for the Camper smelt fry.

Park point was on fire!

Shannon

I will be at Park Point tonight and will say smelting is alive and well!!!!
Its all about timing the run.

I’m not that young to pull nets all night and get up and go to work the next day but apparently my mind thinks I am.

I’ve seen anywhere from 15-30 a gallon and up to 130 for a 5-gallon pail. There are still guys that will net all night long, load on trailers and head to the cities.

I only need enough for my annual camper smelt fry and to gift to a few friends and family.

Good luck if you go!

Yes, right after Zorbaz is the palace. We currently have a waiting list for sites. They are in the process of turning a few campers and trying to make a few more spots. Our waiting list was around 80 a few years back. Not everyone is ready when an opening happens. Yes, buying an existing camper is the quickest way in. I was up two weekends ago and didn’t see any listed for sale. But.. not many had been up yet. Runs from first weekend in May to first weekend in October. Dock space is a waiting list also. You can rent weekend spots and just pull rig out when done.
Is it fun? I think we have some of the best events ever! 4th of July is our jam and its a full day of events. We also have the annual smelt fry, campers end of the year picnic, Halloween party, soup cook off and Northern no contest contest. Of course many other things to be active or non-active in. We are a family campsite and pride ourselves on this.

I have also seen the Fishermans Bay bar is now getting into the seasonal game. They are right up the road from us.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

When the wind is blowing you off the lake!

Its a great fishery and you should have a balst!

I do the “shooks shake” on every one of my videos, just because!
haven’t talked to “Ninetoes” in years but still have a picture of the shovel everyone signed at his place.

“Bucketrack”

Abnormal bending of the strip. I’ve seen this when the Lites are used in hubs and slide into a weird area and are jammed into a bag. Also, when they slide over the corner on a flip over house.
Call customer service and a new set would be on the way. Kinda on your own now that its disassembled.

Shannon

My annual trip is scheduled out of long point this Friday.
Stay tuned, I’m sur ethe boys up there will have us somewhere.
Great outfit!

Shannon

7 1/2″ in most areas with currents drawing havoc.

SxS went down in the narrows by Floe Island yesterday.

Jiffy cordless torch spins like the rest of them.

Ive fished off the beach and piers in Cancun many times. Heck, there were people feeding the fish off the pier and I was catching them! Need to be careful of snorkelers. They are not so happy with stuck lures.
No fishing license needed. Some resorts would take our fish for lunch and cook them! You need to ask before you keep them.
An instant fish caught was a treble with a banana…
I brought PK lure spoons and a few cranks. Wash your equipment after every use.

Keep exploring! You will find them.

Replace the white snap in cap with a black end cap and put a bolt through it.

Black End Cap

Let me know if Jake doesn’t go with it.

Where are you located?

Steve,
Labor Day weekend is the last of the last for summer fun. You WILL see a high amount of traffic on the lake if it’s sunny and warm out. Our summer has been that way. The good thing is there is plenty of space! My best advice is to head to the main lake and find some rock humps. Drop a jig and minnow and start probing around. Last weekend I found a quick drop that went 40 yards and worked back and forth with plastics. (Freedom Baitz – Ring of fire) I boated 20 walleyes in 2 hours with my wife. The traffic for some reason picked up in the area and they moved on. I know I could have moved to the next hump and continued my quest, but my better half was done.

Two weekends ago we had a private campsite Northern Tourny. Most were trolling weed lines in shallow bays with cranks. We caught tons of Walleyes.

Lots of ways to catch them, just keep moving away from the traffic.

Good luck and stop in at Eagle Point for a food and drink.

Shannon

Yes, I tested them last year. They work!

Fill them with Insta Foam and never worry again…
