Are you talking about power poles? They are very simple. There's a up and down button and you hit the button and they power down or up on your command.  They also have different speeds and I have controls in 3 places on my boat.

Its impossible

Ive actually never used hot hands.  Kinda hard with my hands on my reel!

I have all 6:8:1 but anything in the “6” will do you well!

They always do this when it’s cold. I wish I had a good explanation for this. I have thoughts but nothing solid. I think it could be from rooting around on the bottom of the lake. I think their mouths can be raw.

Sometimes it’s soo windy that it’s hard to hold the boat in place!

It’s been acting weird with video’s lately!!! I’ll repost and see if it makes a difference.

Kevin SkovenskiI think it’s something to do with the mentality of coming off the water and being more strategic through the winter. By this I mean, sometimes I feel like we have over emphasize being on the water. Fishing is so strategic that while being on the water is a part of the formula, strategically coming up with a plan to actually catch fish ways very heavy. I really believe that people from the northern part of the country have a longer time to strategize , and sometimes become better fisherman because of that. 

Hey ironically I always tell my wife I preaching sermons. Mainly because the stuff never changes really. You'll hear the same themes over and over. Just like a sermon Ha ha!

Glad to have some hometown people in here!
