    Tin Boat Caught Catfish

    Here's the catfish I made the other night.. It was two big fillets from the cats we caught jug fishing in late June. One blue, one channel fillet.. I cut them up into small pcs. to make it easier to cook and eat.. I think we both ate about 3 helpings each, and I've still got enough to warm up...

    What's the current best bang for the buck on Fish Locators??

A friend offered a nice, older 12' aluminum (can't remember the brand) fishing boat in good shape.. It's on a decent trailer, and...

    Do you suppose this battery has life left??

    The boat I recently bought came with a 27 series Autocraft Marine/Deep Cycle battery that was purchased new 3 years ago and used for about 2 hours in that time. Unfortunately I think it was charged even less in three years.. I put my 10amp charger on it for a day and a half and at first it was...

    What did you get yourself for Christmas??

    I tend to spoil myself this time of year.. No wife (ex or otherwise) no kids, no debt.. This year I bought myself a 96' MirroCraft 14' fishing boat that already had a trolling motor/Eagle fish locator/and a few other goodies, (hence the reason for reactivating my account here), a very lightly...

    Any Hammock users?? Camping or otherwise?

    I've been a motorcycle camper for a few decades and with experience comes knowing what works and what doesn't.. One of my only complaints is camping on less than level terrain, and the issues that go with it.. Sliding all night, repositioning yourself, and then going back to sleep only to do it...
