As we move closer to summer and warm temperatures, fishermen are itching to hit the waterways in their boats. But, before you pull your boat out of storage, blow off the dust, and hit the waterways, it’s important to make sure you have the right equipment on your boat for success.

I know that every fishing season I don’t hit the waterways without my MotorGuide Trolling Motor. My trolling motor is an essential part of my fishing equipment and a great addition to my boat.  It allows me to slowly troll a lure or live bait through the water to where the fish are located providing precise maneuvering of my boat, allowing me to keep on top of the fish as they move. If the fish begin to pick up speed as the move, I can easily adjust my trolling motors speed setting to keep on the fish. I find it to be a great combination between performance, durability and value.  

If you’re a true die hard fisherman and you don’t have a MotorGuide Trolling Motor, I would recommend running out and getting one today. But, before you do that, here are some factors to consider when selecting your MotorGuide Trolling Motor: mounting location, control type, and thrust.

Below I have explained in depth the factors you should consider while selecting your trolling motor.

Thrust

I believe this to be the most important factor when considering what trolling motor to purchase. Selecting a trolling motor that does not provide adequate thrust to move your boat can result in sluggish performance along with a difficulty in combating rough waters, as well as slower acceleration, which can lead to difficulty in getting to the fish and staying on them as they move. If you know the weight of your boat, length, and your fishing needs, picking out a trolling motor that provides enough thrust will not be a problem. If you do not know your boats weight, you can find an adequate trolling motor with just knowing your boats length and construction materials. The thrust from a trolling motor is going to perform differently on fiberglass boats and aluminum boats.

Mounting Location

Most, if not all trolling motors are either mounted on your boats bow or transom unit. Both locations have pros and cons, and it’s best to select a trolling motor based on your boat and your needs.          

- Transom Mount Trolling Motors: Mounted on the transom unit, operated by hand, and have a trolling emphasis, drivers sit in the rear of the boat steering as they move along.

- Bow Mounted Trolling Motors: Mounted on the bow of your boat, can be operated by the use of a foot pedal allowing for hands-free operation, and allows for precise maneuvering of your boat.

Shaft Length

Trolling motors shafts come in different lengths and are determined by whether you want a transom mount or bow mount trolling motor. When selecting a shaft length for a transom mounted trolling motor, you need to know the distance from the transom to the waterline. When you figure out that distance, add an additional 20 inches to that length to ensure your trolling motor remains in the water during rough conditions.

If you want a bow mounted trolling motor, then you need to take the length from the top of the bow (desired location) to the waterline, and then add an additional 20 inches to that length to ensure your trolling motor remains in the water during rough conditions.

Below is a chart highlighting “Bow to Waterline and Shaft Lengths.”

Bow to Waterline  Shaft Length

0-10 inches                30 inches

11-16 inches              36 inches

17-22 inches              42 inches

23-30 inches              50 inches

31-34 inches              54 inches

If your measurements land in-between available shaft lengths, round your number up to the nearest shaft length.

Control Type

Trolling motors come in three control types: hand control, foot control, and wireless control. There is no definite answer for selecting a control type for your trolling motor; it pretty much boils down to personal preference and fishing style. Select the trolling motor control type that matches your fishing style. I know I use a foot pedal on my Motor Guide trolling motor, which leaves both of my hands free to tend to my fishing needs.

So, there you have it. Adding a trolling motor to your boat can help improve your fishing experience at an affordable price. No matter your need or fishing style, there are trolling motors on the market that will complement your style and address your needs.  Keep in mind too, that selecting the wrong trolling motor can result in sluggish on-the-water performance or other frustrating complications. 

Fishing is one of my biggest passions. There is nothing I like more than hitting the open waters with my trolling motor and pole - that is why I put together this blog on how to help other anglers become more educated when buying a Motorguide Trolling Motor. In addition to fishing, I love hunting, biking, hiking, and campaing. I am a true outdoors man  Thanks for stopping in to read my post. 

Whether your goal is to lose weight or simply becoming fitter and enjoy a healthier lifestyle, there are many things that you can do to achieve the same. Some of the activities are:

• Following a diet plan given to you by a nutritionist
• Joining a gym
• Making every day exercise a mandatory part of your life
• Making small changes in the way you eat when you are at a party and so on

You could also go in for personal trainers. A personal trainer is a great asset in a weight loss and fitness regime because he or she will focus totally on your body and on giving you the best exercises possible that will make it not only interesting but effective as well as far as fitness routines are concerned.

One of the things that you must figure out before you hire a personal trainer for yourself is the answer to the question of whether you actually need one. There is no doubt whatsoever that a personal trainer can be expensive depending on the kind of exercise routine or workout regime you want from him. However, keeping a few tips and pointers in mind you can go a long way in choosing the right personal trainer for your needs.

Ask at your local gym

One of the easiest ways in which you can find a personal trainer for yourself is to ask at the local gym or even your friends who go to the local gym for an individual that they can recommend. Such a trainer would be a “known entity” and you can always do your homework in terms of finding out his coaching style and how effective he has been with his past clients before you sign up with him.

 Checking his credentials

Ideally, you should go in for a personal trainer who has actually done a formal course or certification course in fitness training. This will give you the extra level of confidence that you need from an individual who is going to work closely with you. You could also ask for client references and check on his educational background. It is not always necessary that a personal trainer should come with years and years of experience. A personal trainer starting off in the industry can also be trusted if he comes armed with the right kind of educational background.

 Checking out the options

Once you have decided to go in for the services of a personal trainer, there is absolutely no harm in you interviewing several of them before you decide on one. Factors such as your comfort level, his communication skills, his knowledge in first aid and so on can be ascertained only when you talk to a prospective candidate.

 Getting knowledge about the sessions

Most fitness experts state that to lose weight and to get fitter you need to follow a regime which has both strength training and cardio. If you are going to be doing your workouts at home, then you need to check out how exactly the personal trainer will help you get your cardio and strength “quotas” every day.

A lot of people don’t know what 404 pages means. More than half the people who think they know it are having misconceptions. Although it’s technically correct to call 404 pages as errors because it is a result of being unable to return a particular URL, some would say that it doesn’t deserve that title. 404 s are common user experiences than errors per se.

404 s are totally fine and there’s absolutely no reason to panic. There is no need to try and redirect the 404 s to the home page or a shopping cart. The advice that a lot SEO experts often give is to redirect the 404 URLs elsewhere. This is not at all necessary; maybe they are just worried about getting a negative score from Google and worried that the domains would get penalized or maybe they could be worried that link equity is lost when quality links point to a 404 page. In general we should understand that 404 pages are a very normal. There is no reason at all to worry about them as there is no proof at all that these sites would be penalized by any search engine.

However, abnormally high number of 404 pages could lead to a negative score for the site. A very high number of 404s in your site may indicate a bigger problem with crawling and technical SEO. There is also the possibility that this will lead to poor user engagement in future and eventually failing traffic. This could be reflected in the SERPs with lowered visibility of your URL. A spiking and continuous occurrence of 404s is not at all good. Let alone SEO, you are likely to lose your user base very soon.

When a URL has valuable links, then it’s another time that 404 pages come with potentially negative consequences. It’s not so much about link equity in this case, it’s just that, if you have a good enough page that you can redirect the 404 for then there is no harm in doing so. If the links are valuable and hard to secure, you may have to consider contacting the site and getting the link updated. Creating new content relevant to the link or finding a relevant page that would enhance the user experience would be a great idea if you are having redirection in mind.

When the 404 s are acting as 200 s, then that’s bad news. The search engines will start to index these pages having a soft 404 error page is not good. You have to make sure you sever is configured to give correct status codes for each type of page.  So now we’ll try to list out a set of best practices in redirecting 404s.

• It’s not necessary for a 404 page to be always redirected.
• Global redirection of 404 to the home page is not necessary.
• 404 redirection should only be considered if there is an option that would enhance the user experience.
• 404 is ok when the page doesn’t exist anymore.
• 404 s are totally normal.

If you don’t suffer from blindness or another type of visual impairment, it’s often difficult for you to understand just exactly what occurs in the life of someone who is. It’s hard for you to imagine a world where you couldn’t see anything and you’d have to use all your other senses, plus a variety of tools, in order to do daily tasks that you often take for granted.

The best way to truly connect with someone who is blind or to even understand exactly what it is that they experience every day, you’ll want to understand how they view the world.

It’s not all dark.

Most people will close their eyes tight, notice the darkness that follows, and assume that that is exactly what a blind person sees on a regular basis. While this is a common belief, it’s actually untrue.

What a blind person sees actually varies on the severity of their blindness, but in most cases, blind people can typically see fuzzy or blurry images in black and white. Even blind people that need white canes or guide dogs to get around can typically “see” something, even if it’s not clear or doesn’t make sense to them.

The perception of light varies.

Our eyes are made up of two basic structures: cones and rods. These structures are what our eyes use to perceive light. Cones are used to help us detect colors and are used typically during the day. Rods are what our eyes use to perceive light at night. Blind individuals who have suffered some type of damage (or were born with damage already done) to their cone and/or their rod alleviates their ability to perceive light. In fact, most people without light perception do not have any type of connection between their brain and their optic nerve, which means that they’re considered to suffer from total blindness. These individuals typically “see” mostly darkness.

Some blind people do have some ability to see lights, but usually only those that are extremely bright. These are the individuals that tend to see black and white and/or fuzzy or blurry images.

How do blind people function in their daily lives?

Whether a blind person suffers from total blindness or is considered visually impaired, there are plenty of tools that can help them to get around and do the things that other people can do. The use of white canes and guide dogs is extremely popular among blind people to help them get around on their own safely. The use of Braille has also made it possible for blind people to read on their own, including both books and signage. The use of smartphones and computers has also greatly helped the blind by transcribing books and articles and reading them aloud.

New devices have also been created that can help the blind recognize depth perception. The use of special glasses, including the EYE 21, uses cameras and sound waves to help the blind move about on their own in a safe way.
