Fishing / Re: Ice fishing for walleye
« Last post by Russ McDonald on Today at 07:05:13 PM »
So a lake for walleye has to be fairly decent sized.  Stream fed.   Tips ups don't work as well with walleye. Jigging off the bottom.  I am talking from years of experience fishing in Northern MN though.  Not so much out here.  Most mountain lakes will be trout and stuff.

Elk Hunting / Re: good area for idaho elk open to public
« Last post by Berner5 on Today at 06:48:35 PM »
My brother in law is in charge of over 17,000 acres of public hunting land above Priest Lake. It must be good due to the number of big bulls that he and the family has pulled out of there.
What does "In charge of 17,000 acres public land" mean exactly.  Just curious.

This is what I was wondering too 😅

Did you happen to get a picture of this buck head on or facing away to see his width? His tine length is off the charts

Here he is in 2016 and 2018. A friend who's a scorer said he might have hit 200 at his peak.

Deer Hunting / Re: Quality deer hunt

First, congratulations!
I also find it childish when members are so protective of sharing GMUs for tags that thousands of people apply, are statistically impossible to draw, and they will likely never draw again. It makes the story (and this forum) a lot less interesting.

 :dunno:  nearly all the quality permits are rut hunt timing with open general seasons. The bucks are there just much more difficult to find. Start blasting gmu numbers and expect more company next fall.

Makes me hate demoRats even more, all they do is spread their disease.  How can a dem that hunts be proud of what’s going on?

It isn’t democrats, it’s republicans from California. A republican from California isn’t the same as a republican from Idaho. All Californians love them big government.

Power Equipment & RV / Re: Anyone own a Hewescraft Sportsman 160?

I keep my top on all the time.  It acts as a sail.  Once the wind starts turning the boat it is slow to react.   I'm retired and have a busted up body.  I run my boat at the steering wheel.  I troll with my 70hp about 75% of the time.  If you ever want to get in one before you buy you're welcome to come fish with me.

Rated 90 hp 4 stroke.  No I wouldn't go 90 on one.  The 70 is perfect.  I wish when I bought mine I would have went with the 9.9 High Thrust electric start power tilt.  I wound up putting electric start and charging system on mine.  I have 2 batteries and use Scotty electric downriggers.  Top speed per GPS I've had mine up to is 37 mph.   I went with the 160 sportsman and a roller trailer because I do a lot of beach launching at Freshwater Bay.   I've been in some rough water and never felt like I was in danger.  The only thing I dislike about my boat is it rides rough in choppy water.  I cut a stall mat to fit the front open bow area.  I bolted a small aluminum box to that stall mat and I keep 3 extra 15 lb downrigger balls and a 23 lb pyramid anchor up front and that really helps smooth out the ride.

Why the high thrust 9.9? I can see getting the electric start and power tilt. I was also planning on a bow mount trolling motor.
