Thanks for your kind words, but, really, the good person here is my brother—he's as selfless as they come. I'm just showing my appreciation. Sent from my SM-G950U using Winnipesaukee Forum mobile app |

BoatUS suggest that after a PFD your best piece of safety gear is your VHF. Fishing on the lake, I think most boats monitor and converse on Ch 11 (?), so it's not just a safety item. Doubly important if he does any coastal boating. Despite all the good stuff your phone does, it can't broadcast or receive a Mayday. And he'll need waterproof bags/containers for all this stuff you're buying.
Is he taking time away from wife/family/girlfriend to help you. Maybe they need something too? BTW, I think we're all having a good time spending your money for things that we'd like to have too, or have enjoyed in the past. Thank you. Last edited by Descant; 04-02-2021 at 02:20 PM.

Another idea... A guided fishing trip with a guide that both of you can enjoy together. You can make a memory and learn a thing or 2 at the same time. The smallmouth bass fishing in early June can be incredible.

Also, thanks to Descant, I connected with the author of Clark's Fishing Guide and picked up a signed copy today for my brother. I think he'll like that very much.

There used to be a seaplane operator in Pauggs Bay. Don't know what Covid did to that operation, but it would be fun to have him pick you up at Acadia. There's probably somebody at Moultonborough Airport. You could probably make it a lesson, not just a ride, so your brother can drive and maybe make the landing. Send a PM to seaplane pilot.

He said there's a new pilot starting a similar operation up soon, but I think Hanson Cove and Arcadia's setup is too narrow/populated/cluttered to get picked up there, so I called Emerson and penciled in a sunset flight in June. I told them I'd confirm in the next day or two as I finished my research, though, if anyone has other ideas. 3...sizable dudes, so no Red Baron!
