    50 or 100ah Li Battery?

    Ken, its really pretty simple Glue on a Scotty Pad using NRS PVC glue then add the Outcast motor mount. The only downside is that when you do this you can't use the Scotty anchor mount anymore as the TM setup goes in the same place. Once I get all the parts and install it I'll try and post up...

    They need to INSTALL free boats on various lakes

    I have no clue what you are talking about. None.

    PSA - Heads up on MT Boat Inspections

    I could contest it but not worth the $135 to have to drive up to Bozeman to go to court. Just paid the dang thing.

    50 or 100ah Li Battery?

    So I AM modifying my Outcast Fish Cat Scout. In talking to Outcast its a fairly simple process. So I have ordered a TM on Prime days this morning and need to also order a battery. It seems like a 50am should be sufficient for a 50# thrust TM and its half the weight of a 100ah battery (and less...

    PSA - Heads up on MT Boat Inspections

    Yes I did. And BTW the station that was closed is run by Idaho but co funded and accepted by MT.

    PSA - Heads up on MT Boat Inspections

    For a long time I have bought AIS and boat registrations for my power boat and pontoon for use in MT. Did so again this spring. Last week I was headed to fish Henrys Lake. As anybody who fishes there knows at this time of year its typical to have a decent early bite. But we knew heading up there...

    They need to INSTALL free boats on various lakes

    Sounds good on the surface. But lets pull the sting here. 1. How is this funded? Out of tax dollars or license sales? I can hear it now. No way in hell do I want my dollars paid toward that. Want a boat then buy your own like I did. 2. First come first served? Going to have a lottery system like...

    NFR World Cup

    A ton of fans complained about Pochettino from day one. Then the complaints magnified clear through this March. Team's not progressing. Doesn't play well together. Haven't figured out an identity. Blah blah blah. From the day he was hired Poch made it clear that his objective was to try lots of...

    NFR World Cup

    I was a certified USSF ref for a number of years. During the match I thought the ref was too lenient with not carding the Aussies several times sooner than he did. I rewatched it yesterday when I got home. All in all he did an ok job but he for sure could have carded the Aussies more than he...

    NFR World Cup

    First off, thanks for hosting a fantastic event. I went to the last game of the 1970 World Series and it was not near the rocking going on at Lumen yesterday. Now as to the match itself. The US played terrific in the first half. Tons of patience and smart play. The second half was more of a...

    Pontoon with Motor Mount Advice

    So 90% of my fishing these days is on my boat. And I wouldn't trade that! But there are still some circumstances where I use my Fishcat Scout pontoon which I really like. However, having to rely 100% on rowing and flipper power is a bit problematic on one of my main go to lakes. It has been...

    NFR World Cup

    The US played a terrific match. The defense we are a bit worried about was solid. Another record was set Friday night that to me was the most impressive of all. Chris Richards set a new WC record for the most passes completed with a 100% correct passing rate. He was 83-83. For those of us who...

    Another Two Fly Question

    Matt thats actually close to the system we use at Pyramid Lake except that the upper fly. Tie it on with a loop knot but extended on a short piece of leader (4" or so) so its away from the main leader.

    Potential Upgrade Fish Finder for Outcast Scout Pontoon

    Thanks for the replies all. I think I am headed to either a Humminbird Helix 5 or Garmin Striker Vivid 5. Mounting with an all enclosed fishfindermount.

    Potential Upgrade Fish Finder for Outcast Scout Pontoon

    I currently have a Fishin Buddy Max on my scout but for a variety of reasons I am thinking about upgrading to a different system. Contemplating going with a Humminbird Helix 5 and a mount/battery system from fishfindermounts.com. I'd consider going up to a 7" screen but since I bought my boat...

    Another Two Fly Question

    Yes I do wear reading glasses for tying all my knots now. Every since I had lens replacement surgery. Maybe I need an extra strength pair....lol

    Are you saying that its illegal to fish two flies on a single fly rod in BC?

    Another Two Fly Question

    I have two issues with tying both lines to the eye of the upper fly. 1. The first one is just me. But I have a really hard time getting the second tippet through the same eye especially when the upper fly is a smaller balanced leech. Just can't see the hole well enough. 2. For whatever reason, I...

    Another Two Fly Question

    So over 60% said they tie the second fly off the bend of the hook of the upper fly. So does that mean that most of you are using barbed upper flies? I have had trouble with using barbless flies and having the line slip off the bend of the hook. Anybody else have this issue to the point where its...
