    Tiger Muskie fishing

    Locally there are two smaller lakes that have been planted with Tiger Muskie. The boy wants to fish for them this year. We know nothing about this fishing, and would you fellows mind imparting some wisdom?

    so did a little fishing today, and made a good show for some launch watchers

    Not in any big hurry to get to the lake about 40 miles out of town that has been the go to trout spot for a few years in the family. There is no dock at the public launch, and we pretty much were able to pull up, get the boat ready, wait a few and pull right down into the water. There is not...

    Launch process at the ramp?

    Before you guys back down with the sport boats, are you totally unhooked from the trailer and it floats free as soon as you hit deep enough water? Have the standard shorelander trailer with the carpet skids, no rollers to worry about feeding it right off the trailer on its own with a slope...

    Wife wants a blanket on the boat

    She would like a couple blankets to make it a bit more bearable in the cool spring we have (50's and 60's) when out on the boat for a few hours.

I'm in a 04 180BR. BTW does that reclining passenger side seat come OFF so you can get full access to...

    Where do you put your trailer plate on a Shorelander

    Picked up the boat Tuesday night and could not find where my plate is supposed to mount on the trailer. No obvious holes, no brackets, no evidence where the prior owner had the plate. So where does it mount, or what am I missing from where to bolt it on? Thanks ALan

    Suggestions requested for 180 Sport electronics

    Picking up a used 2004 in a few days after a quick mount Minkotta plate is attached to the bow. I have my old Sidewinder, we would mount off the side of rowboat rentals, but looking for something a bit up the ladder in capabilities. Not a fan of putting holes in the boat. I think to get by...
