RE:Looking for someone to share time in my boat

Kalefish, No gas motor yet. I am on the Minn Kota. Had the maiden voyage to Lk. Ballinger (snohomish county) last night. Had a great time it's perfect for trolling. Not gonna break any speed records for sure, but it gets you where you wanna be. Nice having the flat bottom on the boat, makes standing...

Looking for someone to share time in my boat

Ok.... I've been reduced to grovelling (sp?) Basicly I want to learn to bass fish. I've got this new boat and only one buddy who even fishes, so I am wondering if there is anybody out there who has been bank fishing this whole time, but would like to get some time in a boat? Only requirements would ...

RE:How many secret lakes do you guys have?

CK 14, I see that you're in Edmonds? I grew up out there. Are you a lifetime resident? Regarding a couple of "Secret lakes" you have... the one where people walk around you all day, but your the only one fishing. I was wondering if you've ever thrown a line in at Chase lake on 84th and about 212th? ...

RE:Pontoon trolling

For fly shops also check out The Avid Angler. They are located in Lake Forest Park. I know you are new to the area... so this would be Bothel Hwy. going around the North end of the lake through Kenmore, once you round the lake, it's the first traffic light and in the little mall.

King County lk. to check out

I was going to write up a big to do on a very unknown lake I recently visited. I am not posting this under the secret lakes forum, just because I will say that the lake I refer to is Totem Lake here in Kirkland. But instead of going into a lot of stuff I will just say that I'd love to see a few peop...

RE:Deep cycle batteries

DH I don't know what your boat set up is.. but I just was at Costco about 1 week ago. I bought their Deep Cycle 12 volt marine battery. I believe I paid $62.00 when I got home to my 14ft. Lund, I realized the Costco battery was twice the size of the area that holds the battery. Went to GI Joes and r...

Boat seats

Silly question here.... but I am putting two seats in my 14 ft. Lund. These are the kind that swivel and the back folds down. Of course the rear seat is where it is obviously. Do people put the second seat on the bow bench? Or the middle bench? I mean the bow bench has enough room in front of it to ...

RE:Catch and Release when fishing with bait....

This is an interesting thread which makes me think of the many times I see people fishing in a particular place yet completly disregarding the rules. i.e. Whenever I go to Rattlesnake Lk. (Snoqualmie Pass) I see the fly guys in float tubes who I am pretty sure are doing the right thing and following...

The funny thing about this story is that I caught a nice fat perch 4-5 lbs, 20" ?? When this thing came...

Tiger M. in Greenlake

Got a question here... So many of you know already that the dept. of fish or whatever they're called did put Tiger Muskies in greenlake (King County) at what I think was two years ago. As a predator against the common carp. The report that I read said of course that they were fairly immature. I beli...

Ok, so I got my Lund 14 ft. last weekend. Along with the Eagle Fishmark 320 ff. I feel a little embarrased to ask this question, but am I REALLY supposed to attach the transducer to the very bottom of the transom by drilling to holes into the boat and then running a couple of bolts through this with...

RE:NEW: 55# 12v Minn Kota Endura Trolling Motor

Do you still have the motor? Also can I ask how come you are parting with a new motor, and if the warranty is still good, and transferable.

thanks,

Cole, You are talking about my lakes! I know Coal lake well. Unfortunately I have only caught little fish in there, i.e. 7-8 inch. What you want to do is go up to the end of the road, maybe a 1/4 mile. Take the 1/2 mile stroll into Lk. Independance. Quite a few years ago this lake was really good. O...
