Northwest Fishing Reports

After a year of looking, finally found what i have been looking for and made the drive down to Olympia last night to pick it up. A 2002 Smokercraft Milentia 162 w/ a injected 70 horse Yamaha..Full walk through window, dual console, dual live wells, bow mount......and I have to be at work this weekend....AHHH. Picks will follow, it was a little dark last night when i finally made it back to Everett...I am waiting on the marina to ship me a new foot control for the Minn kota, and that should be here next week. Does anybody on here have a foot control for a power drive Minn Kota that they are not planning on using on Sunday? Looking to "rent" the controls for a day. Can arrange pickup and delivery. Just really want to get out on the water this weekend...thanks

congrats mate.

Let's see it!

Ask and you shall receive.

LOL. You dont GOTTA be a basser to have/use a bow mount. Trollin for trout, workin the shore line for Tiger Musky, lounging...




lowvw, did you get the auto pilot or iPilot with your MinnKota?

Nice setup. Your going to have years of fun with that boat. Much like mine, but mine is a lowes. Dual live wells are cool, that is my next objective. did it come with two or three batteries?

Most of my fishing is for Bass, but ill fish for about anything. Took it out yesterday, everything ran great. Boat came with 2 batteries,...with a trojan for the bow mount. Ran the bow mount in the wind all day yesterday and didnt even drop below a 75% charge.

LUUUCKY!:joker:

I wouldnt say lucky, that was 5 months straight of 60+ hour weeks....definately worth it

nice boat you got yourself. hope it brings you tight lines and lots of enjoyment

Congrats sounds like you`ve earned it. Have fun.

Nice water ride! Bow mounts are used for all kinds of fishing, not just bass. I use mine for walleye and panfish as well as working certain spots for bass on occasion. Have even caught trout while bass fishing! :thumright
