I played the sympathy card for over 5 years hoping my good friend Denny would spot me a boat but it never happened. Finally a guy from down south felt my pain and stepped up. |

Location: Berlin | I will post the rest when it is in my driveway. I am going down to St Louis tomorrow to pick it up. I should have time Sunday to get some pics. It has been a long time and I am very excited. I have been blessed with some great partners over the years so there has never been a huge need to get another boat. My son is 12 and it is time for us to start fishing together. Walleye season is over by the time he out for summer vacation. Good thing Winnebago has more then walleyes in it  I feel like Anakin at the end of the 3rd Star Wars... |

Location: Berlin | Notice the steps and pole on the front of the trailer, also notice the night lights mounted under the rub rail for night fishing. I had her up to 70mph today with a little to go. It has the wrong prop but once set-up properly I will be looking at low 70's full tournament load with 2 guys.

Nice! Had I seen this on Thursday, I would have let the Cat out of the bag! Congrats! Glad to see that Merc on back. But........
Where's the kicker? I don't think the big motor will troll down enough for Bago eyes! |

Location: Berlin | 73.5mph today. Still playing with props and jackplate settings but getting it dialed it. Things got a little windy tonight while making passes with the new prop. I am amazed at how well this boat handles. It does not run troughs as well as a walleye boat but head on in 1-2'ers I will run it against anything. |

Glad to see that Merc on back. But........ Where's the kicker? I don't think the big motor will troll down enough for Bago eyes! Thanks Shep, I knew if you checked the thread you would have known right away. I installed a new product called a through hull kicker. It is like an inboard and hidden from sight. Inside the large rear storage compartment is a pop-up rod holder rack. I have all my other compartments filled with planer boards and crankbaits. Believe me, this baby is set-up for mud trolling...I spared no expense! |

Hey Rob T, I have a real nice Arthur Fulmer full face helmet for sale. Gonna get kinda breezy on your side of the boat!! |

| Rich are you going to break in the Kitty at our Boat Doc Tourny this Weekend? I am sure Josh would love to see Kitty in the "Triton Gold" event
Wait until you see the "Lakeland Boats Pro Staff" apparel we dug out of a time capsule. We had to drive all the way to the Lakeland world headquarters in Greenbush, WI to get our new tourny gear.
See you Sunday!!!

Location: Berlin | We are not sure which boat we will be using yet. All depends on where we find fish. Right now we have not found any so we might just leave the boat on the trailer.
Looking forward to the Lakeland gear! Just goes to show it is not the boat that catches fish. It looks like you guys will have another good event. Good luck! |
