I tried, and tried, and tried... to figure out how to edit the post from last night, then found that it can't.

I'm embarrassed that I got your name wrong,JAY! ( I know that Jim is your fishing buddy who tightlines from the front) My fingers were still numb, and my brain hadn't completely thawed back out yet.

Yes sir... whatever trolling motor that I decide on will have the autopilot feature (and that spot lock makes me drool.) I've never had a "drive by wire" TM, and the Terrova is expensive. The Ultrex is even more. I don't need the auto deploy feature, and don't know if the cable drive is worth the added expense.

Whichever I decide on, I'll be adding the HB 360 on the front as well...

After purchasing the boat new in August, I've added the Helix 10 Mega SI at the console (WOW,) and Helix 12 (not mega) DI at the bow. I'm ashamed to admit (not really) that I'm completely ignorant pertaining to any electronics (computers in general,) and can't take full advantage of what I've already gotten (yet.) My computer at home is a Mac, and isn't compatible with the HB... I've not gotten a card for the unit yet (screenshots,) and also have not installed Lakemaps, either.

I'd just like to pass along my appreciation for your willingness to pass along your knowledge concerning this passion we call crappie fishing. Whether you realize it or not, you do a great service to us "junior fellows" with respect to time and expense in our pursuit of the finest eating freshwater fish on the planet!

Thanks for your willingness to help others along!

Beavz when you need something edited or changed i can do that . that is part of my job as moderator .just PM me
look at the original post and see if it is right now

Yes sir. Now as it should be.

Thank you!

Jim and I went fishing today. We traveled 250 miles round trip. We caught 1 crappie. So that means the two of us fishing together caught 1 more fish on our last fishing trip than you did on your last fishing trip. Feel better now?

I want my blanket.

Lol! Well, I DID say that I didn’t catch any fish long lining... but I put all that away and got my dock shooter back out.
Put steel in 6 or 7. All dinks and released to grow up!
I know every trip isn’t (banner) for you... but when it’s good, it’s REALLY good! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

you don`t need a blanket you need a plug of chewing tobacco and a dip net threw tobacco in water when they come up to spit you dip them up .

Beavz,I have caught a lot of fish out of Lanier longlining. It will take you a while to learn the lake. Right now I am sure they are on brush piles and under docks. The best days to troll on Lanier is cloudy days because your fishing clear water. When things start warming up this spring concentrate on creeks up the Chestatee and on the north end of the Chattahooche.
Wahoo and Little river are good creeks in the spring and yellow jacket also. There will be a lot of fish up above clarks bridge also.
Good Luck

Mr. Sage I haven't thought of that. I don't chew any more but that might be the excuse I need to start back.
Thanks for the tip.

no just let the fish do that

It'll get better
