Yeah CP I guess we fit the "old school" mold. The only thing that I do rely on that I didn't have 40 years ago is a GPS. I get lost easily. I got lost on the Lake of the Woods about 15 years ago and it was scary. If it hadn't been for a couple of Canadian Indians I would still be wandering around....LOL
Someone, in another post, mentioned sculling rather than a trolling motor. I've done that too. Had my metal Coca Cola cooler full of Jax beer and bologna. Back then we supported the local brewery. Had a fish stringer hanging over the boat and knew nothing about a high priced thing with aerators, recirculators, timers,water temp,etc. Aluminum Starcraft 14' with a 6 hp motor. How in the Hell did we catch any fish?
I guess we both along with IBNFSHN and a few others can officially be called "Old School"
