Thanx Bosman, Is there anything around Lawrence lake for public?

Is the ramp at the Wildcat park in Minnesota side a good ramp? If the tourney is limited to 7 and 8 pools I will probably stay in 8 and run around observing. I’m hoping though they can come down to 9

I have the 597ciHD and want to use it to only locate my waypoints while ice fishing. Do I only need a power cord and if so can I get away with a small battery like we use for our ice flashers?

Hey duck we responded same time so you r saying I can do this?

Thanx guys for quick response!! Can I scroll to my hunting area and when I get to the position I want to waypoint will it hold true for when I arrive? Do I need to acquire satilites b4 I do this from my door step?

ER, I opted for the 597ci HD. I want to use the US2 and the DI probably would’nt be used much. Thanx for the info.

Thanx for response ER. What unit would u recomend utilizing the US2 on my Terrova? I would like gps/sonar combo and prefer internal reciever and not break my bank account. I tried running a a seperate transducer on this unit but the cord was wrapped around everything!

Thats too easy I already have the internal rebuild kit just thought someone may have done repair project on their own.

Is it ok to soft reset w/a navionics chip in?

They have priced matched before and I’m sure they would have done it this time but 5%of a $350 purchase wasn’t worth it.

Luv, I signed up for Lacrosse a couple weeks ago as a co and didn’t have a guarentee. I am taking each tournament as I go so don’t know if I’m fishing all due to work schedule. Will be fishing Prairie and Lacrosse super. I see you are from my neck of woods. E-mail me and maybe do some pre-fishing or expense sharing. I am off that whole week.

I posted a couple of weeks ago for anyone needing a co for Lacrosse BFL. I haven’t heard from anyone so just call and register and I will be your guarentee. R.D.

Thanx Lee, I was over to Johnnys Tues am and checked one out. Pretty cool idea. Will get hold of Matt for a demo. RD

Wade, I have Nav north but was needing more road stuff. I will be using it from mid Minn down to southern Iowa both on rivers,lakes and roads. I have a PC w/card reader stuff just not sure what to do to get Mapcreate w/out the disc or whatever is needed. Thanx, R.D.

E -mail at [email protected]. You’ve got your co-angler.

You the man!! Thanx, R.D.

Decaying fish = no O2

DNR=LMBV=Dead Bass=Decaying=Other dead fish?!?!

May have to pull boat up and fish as boater but on second thought may just fish my a$$ off at Stren and qualify for day 3 & 4

Just checked CUSA results pics and none there but I think you get the idea. R.D. It was 2003 that we were down there. Man time flys.

Rainyman, I am not much of a walleye troller but fished a crappie classic in northern Miss. a couple of years ago. Down there trolling cranks for big slabs is norm so I rigged my 20′ bass boat that runs a 225Merc w/drift socks so I could stay around 2mph. I took a drift sock and tied to my front dock cleats, did this on each side and used a trolling bar attached to back seat post. Able to maintain different speeds and with a sock on each side your steering isn’t affected. There still may be a pic of us doing this on Crappie USA .com and search tourney results for 2004 or 05′,Classic,then find pictures. I will try to find and post back.

Sorry boaters gotta work that wknd. Will check out BASS web and see when the other tourneys are and may be able to fish some. : Thanx, R.D.

What is the date for this tourney,non-boater entry fee, any membership required, check in time???? I’m fishing Stren series as a co and may be able to fish this one as well. Thanx, R.D.

Our yellow lab started having seizures around the age of 2 also. He was having them about every 4 months or so. At first he was having them when there was a full moon. Weird. The seizures only lasted 5 minutes or so from start to finish. There are alot of websites out there. We finally gave into the meds, and have been seizure free since. We delayed given meds because of his age, but began to get worried we may be doing more harm then good by not giving him the meds. If you do put your dog on meds, make sure he is given a yearly blood test. After the first year of him being on them, we had to raise the dosage. In the morning he gets a pill and a half in his food, and then 12 hours later he get the same amount with an apple. Good luck, and if this vet thinks it’s normal, find another one again!! Labs are known to have seizures, but your vet must be concerned! My wife use to work at Petco and a customer told her once that she gave her dog a raw hide from Target and her dog had a seizure. She was also told that raw hides that are made in other countries seal the raw hides with arsenic. We only give american made pigears to our dog now. Every little bit helps, whether it’s the raw hide or not, it has given us peace of mind. Hope you get good news!

I would wet myself too if I was lucky enough to catch those pigs!!! NICE fish.

Photos were taken and fish were released in the Cedar at Palo. Nobody had a camera at the weigh in and needed some memory photos of my dad and I. Looking forward to the Coralville open May 13.

HH, I called down to Mcbride DNR station and they said it would be best that way we can cull our fish if needed which as a registered bass tourney we are exempt from state cull law. I sent it in Tuesday and will either pick it up Thurs. or Fri. Let everyone know its a go!! Thanx, R.D.

HH, I have posted on Iowa Outdoors about holding weekday tourneys and having one on May 3 at Mcbride. You stated day time tourneys might not work for many and I was wondering what time frame might be more convient? At this time I have 5-10 people who says that they will be fishing the 7am-2pm tourney. I am trying to get an idea on number of fisherman so I can get ahold of Paul Sleeper for the permit. As for Coralville bass my Dad and I won the Hawkeye Hooksetters tourney there on the 22nd with our limit of bass at 15.50#s. They’re there you just have to fish hard. Bear Creek is having an open tourney on the res May 13. Last year 1 fish took first place. $1800 to the winners. Well organized tourney and good people. Cedar river out of CR can be a good bite. Hooksetters has held many there and good fish have been caught but its more of a summer bite. As for Palo I was thinking of holding a paper tourney where you split up the teams and measure/weigh fish that are 15″ and of course bring in fish over 18″. You will still be a team and at end of tourney you add your measurements/weights combined w/partner and this determines winner. Like you said still working out details. Thanx, R.D.

Hey guys thanx for the thoughts. I also wanted to congratulate My rooming/traveling buddy Rick Herold for winning the co side of the Everstart. He wanted to drive me home Thurs. and come back up but I said I could handle it so he could consentrate on the final days. GOOD JOB RICK!!

I think the guys that pay more are better fishermen!!
