Heavy Weather

Something to consider:

When I see reports of severe weather on the news I wonder how my fellow Stagers in the areas affected have fared. Would asking for a roll call check in type of thing be too invasive for comfort? I’m always relieved when I see people posting so I know they are ok.

I see about large scale flooding in Texas. Is everyone down there ok?


I think you have a good idea there, Chief.
I know that Hacksaw and his family are fine and they are not affected by the flooding.
You can check him off of the list.🇺🇸🇺🇸

Got out yesterday [2] Fishing was great with over 20 bass caught and released. WT is around 65 and the bass were very shallow. Ned rig and Senko weightless worked best.


That was a great day, Commander. Some hefty bass.
Thanks for sharing.

I just read an article about some people in the demonstration calling the Jewish students N**is.
Gosh, talk about a lack of historical knowledge.

I understand we have the right to protest but not violence. I might not agree with something but I have no right to destroy property or harm anyone.


Destruction of property, public or private, and/or physical harm, is no longer peaceful protest. Such actions are not protected under the First Amendment.
Law and order needs to prevail.

I wholeheartedly agree, OJ. The lack of respect for others and the current mindset have created a much less desirable experience for us. We basically stay rural where we feel safer.

Finish up a couple of fantastic days with my sons
Loveatightline wrote:
We had two great days of fishing with two of my sons here at Fort Peck Mt. At was a rough start as my outboard main drive shaft decided to snap in half and my youngest son volunteered to drive back to north Dakota and bring his boat.
Fishing was slow but we caught some great northern pike, walleye, lake trout and small mouth bass.
Three personal bests for me and two for one son.
Lakers to 13lbs, walleye to 9lbs, 14lb northern pike, 4.5lb small mouth bass.
I'm having some trouble with the photos loading but we will see how it works.

Poor mans power poles plans

A boat trailer winch?


Certainly should be strong enough.
More complicated to install, but so much better than the windshield motor.

Like Bob said looks good on paper, but the wiper motor will not pickup the pipes up when they fills up with water 🥴 and if it would work they'd already be on the market, made of aluminum tubes with hydraulic pump to pick it up and down 👍 but keep us posted on the results 🤞


Might be better to use a manual pulley system and a 3:1 mechanical advantage. 🤷‍♂️

Here is a set of plans I drew up to make a set of power poles for a bass boat. I bought the pipes to make it but haven't got around to it yet. Once I get my pontoon boat finished and get my new outboard mounted my bass boat I will be making these up.

What you guys think? Anyone see any flaws in my idea?

The basic idea is each pipe will fit loosely in the next one so a ring that fits tight to the pipe can be glued to the top and bottom of each section so they will not come apart. I plan to use an old windshield wiper motor as a winch to raise and lower it. It should anchor to 10 foot deep.

I like your thinking. Can you explain more about the rings to keep it from coming apart? That was not clear to me.
Does the windshield motor have sufficient torque to raise the power pole out of mud?
Great idea.

Excellent post. I concur with Brad.
