That's a great deal. I'd snap it up, but I'd have to replace my front t/m also since it's 12V. Someone's going to get a great deal.

To whom ever bought it!!! Fill out and send in the warranty card!!!! If you use this motor at all you will need it. On the second brain board in three years.

You will love the motor however. MinnKota just needs to get ALL the bugs worked out.

Chris,

We have been using a vantage for 4 years until about 3 weeks ago when my dad forgot to hit the up button... To make a long story short, it is in the bottom of a lake due to the mounting bracket busting!!! These motors are in such high demand that you can't find them anywhere!!! That was until I checked FM and Valv had a new one for $200.00 less than anywhere else. cool.gif

They have one on ebay right now and it is a $350 but it says it does not go up and down but motor runs. Would that be the "brain board" and if so how much would it have cost you? Might not be a bad deal if the board isn't too ridiculous.

Don't get me wrong. Just making sure that if you had no such experience with them that you are covered. They are a great motor and Minnkota stands behind them well. Just trying to head off any heartache with the service center if you need service on it.

I heard those motors break off once you hit 35 mph or so..

Eyes', whats up with the way the guy in the back of the boat is holding his rod in your avitar? Is he making sure his guides are straight or really concentrating on looking for a nibble?

Yeah I would say that the 35 mph is about right!!! I'm just glad it wasn't me who did it!!!

The guy in the back was trying to catch a fish... I think he caught 1 fish that day!!! We had to listen to a ton of crying!!! It was the day you and your dad were out there...

eyes - probably more like around 30 mph, since your fancy Ranger isn't even capable of 35!! blush.gif

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
