I switch gears and work on Q'n meat, fish (walleye is great smoked)veggies etc. I have done probably 8 mod's to my horizontal smoker, donated that to a friend who's been dying to get into Q'n. Bought a bullit smoker, at least that many mod's to that but I think I have it dialed on now. This past weekend was able to maintain 220 to 225 for 14 hrs even in those 40 MPH winds. Plan on building a UDS or 2 before open water. Not that I don't smoke alot of food, but this time of year I'm usually doing it every sat and sunday. My boat is in the garage, so I see it everyday collecting dust.
I can only hope I have earned the freedom that has been given me.

Ron,
I'm in the process of ordering an auto pilot. I'll call you to discuss this, the dealer is offering a boat show special $2400

I fully agree Jim, I almost cried when I seen the temps thinking the lake is going to lock up with ice.( no bad intention for ice fisherman).

Yes, give me a shout some evening. 2400 sound super if your getting all 4 components. I have only found something for a mechanical steering for 3800 plus tax. It seems like the hydro-steering pilots run about 1000 less- oh well, live an learn(fish). later on ron.
Hey kev....you staying warm up there with that jagermister stuff this winter?

Fish on!!! 3 and 4 and 5
Come on greg you should have that stuff done by now its only 2 months away. when you plan on putting that boat in the water. I 2 am behind just pulled my boat in to add auto pilot, and a couple new secret fish catching goodies.
Ron spend that money you know its worth it. more time winding and less time driving.

auto pilot
Fish Tails which auto polit are you looking at? I have a 2150 Lund with a 225 opt and a 9.9 kicker, have been looking at the Raymarine S1000 or the Gramin TR-1. Any input form anyone on either units would be help. I just have to much time on my hands right now and am thinking to much...
I must stay off ebay
Thanks FL
