Im probably in line with what you outlined Pete, actually spot on. Things have a way of cycling back around as to which type and when depending on the season. Some are for the new challenge and learning new skills , and some are to bring you back to a different time in your life with family and friends ,or when the only money problem you had was lunch money in school. I enjoy it all ,but mostly when my two boys are with me. A few years ago I was a lurker on this site trying to figure out how to troll on lake O, so one day I signed up and introduced myself , and one of the first guys that responded welcoming me aboard was "whaler 1" , Bill may not remember but on one of my first trips out on the lake trolling with my boys he texted me to see how I was making out, and here I am 500 plus posts later and catching fish , and adding to my addiction.

I would like to add to all the above advice which is good stuff, as I use my trolling motor to steer with the big motor locked straight , but to be sure I always have enough battery , once lines are set using the trolling motor , turn it off and troll as you normally would have and when a fish hits I hit the remote on my bow mount that takes over while Im reeling and netting , dealing with fish , and resetting lines. At least until you figure out how long your batteries will last.

Spot on. The person that started the thread asked what kind of boat for salmon fishing,
