  1. Unfortunately we do use the main motor to troll. Right now I have everything on the main battery with the exception of the fish hawk, which is on the TM (front) battery.

    We troll primarily, then drift/cast second. I've owned the boat for 3 years and have used the trolling motor twice. Just not a bass guy. I've really only kept the TM on the boat as an emergency power source.

    If I add a second rigger and the other stuff I mentioned am I still good running off the main battery?

  2. Hey Everyone, looking for some help with making sure I have an adequate power supply for next season. Here's where I am now:

     

    2017 Lund Rebel XS Sport

    Humminbird Helix 9 Mega DI GPS

    FishHawk X4

    (1) Scotty 1116 DR

    Minnkota Powerdrive 55lb TM

    Mercury Analog Prerig w/Gauges

     

    Looking to add:

    2nd Scotty 1116 DR

    Marine CB Radio

    Kicker or Terrova AP (still trying to decide)

     

    Right now I only have the 2 stock 12v batteries onboard (one under the rod locker and another at the stern) and need some help with what I might need to keep everything stable/reliable.

     

    Do I need an onboard charging system?

    (2) inline 12v batteries?

    Something else?

     

    Attached are a couple photos of the battery slots as they are today, with everything unbuttoned for winter.

     

    Thanks guys,

     

    Sean

  3. My buddy took my boat out yesterday with a friend from work and his son out of Pine Grove. Took 2 BTs, both on Mags and a decent King on a green ladder back spinny/fly on a rigger parked at 90' over 130'. Beyond that a couple rigger knock offs is all. He fished first light til noon. Temps still pretty deep.

    It was the boy's first ever king so watching him rip the rigger out to 500' was quite a thrill!
