  1. Ott Oh, you found those big headed,colorful,and heavy suspended lakers.
  2. Rumor has it, Its going to be directed and produced by Steven Spielberg. My question is . ... Is there going to be a wookie?
  3. I hope Skateopedia doesn't put his book online.We do not need people reading their phones and driving their boat.. {Now showing my age]
  4. Try the smallest silver suttons they make trolled on top. Slowly. Its amazing what those little trebles will hold.
  5. There are 40 of them. Now that I see the pictures,they are much nicer than they look in the pictures . I can not get a good picture.... Even the new ones in the package look bad but they are brand new...
  6. Some dimple lights,vampires,Candy corn,die hard ,Frogs.some with a few teeth marks.Most 28's a few mags .Overall in great shape. Very speed tolerant and Hard to find these colors. $160 shipped (less than I paid when new) Paypal accepted.
  7. Hmmmm. brass and copper. I would try and make another before I lost it.
  8. The suspended lakers seem to be almost a different specie than the ones on the bottom. Their heads are larger they seem to be longer , more colorful and less slimey.You can catch them at faster speeds. Our fish gauge is if they take drag. I run nothing less than 30lb test. If they do not take drag then its get them in the boat and get the lure back down there.I also grab a few decent atlantics and bows in the mix.Occasional brown. I hope someone else has noticed this and I don't look like a idiot.......
  9. This does not really answer your question .But I have found when out over deep water and you are not marking anything. If a rod goes off it usually a real decent fish. Yes you can do well raking the bottom for quantity. But for me anyway I spend a lot of time chasing suspended fish.Derby fish.
  10. I have a Garmin 73dv that came programed w/17000 lakes. Problem is in the fingerlakes it is way off on location and it does not show bottom structure I know is there. {Cayuga Lake} I see they have joined forces with navonics and are supposed to be more accurate. I have not seen any feedback yet. Around $150 for a new chip. I also have a Furuno GP1870df w/antenna that I could use as a stand alone GPS . I am not familar with the Cmap chip. How accurate are they in the fingerlakes? Around $260 for the chip. Anyone running a 1870 with a new chip? Anyone had experience with either of these? I fish Cayuga and Seneca most of the time. I like to scoot along the dropoffs
  11. Someone got a great buy.
  12. Would taste great with snipe. Surf n turf.
  13. Thanks for the reply. I am currently currently running a perfectly good 582l . And I have a GP-1850 on the shelf if ever have to replace the 582l. I just thought it would be cool to view to a fish finder on a big screen for a realistic price....
  14. Will that work on a regular laptop computer ?
  15. Ive got a power cord $15 plus $7.50 shipping. Paypal available.
  16. Nympho X2 , A half hitch on the swivel then square knot . Easy to tie . Never lost a fish because of this knot. I retie often to get rid of pigtail.
  17. I have so many lures in the boat I cant find what I want now. Trying to sell off some stuff. Then I see these.. Ahhh maybe one or two...
  18. Otter boats I had my worst tangle up ever with a otter boat. The section of towline that hooks to the front of the otter boat broke. That let the otter boat swing around behind the boat and tangle with the otter boat on the other side. I turned the boat sharp to try and keep the otters away from each other. Ended up with toplines tangled,dipsey wires around down rigger cables and fishing line around the prop. Lucky the lake was flat./ Moral of the story is replace the towline that hooks to the otterboat anually. Yes I still run otter boats its the speeding up and slowing down when you get them adjusted right that triggers strikes....
  19. I will be a back up buyer for spinners and cowbells ,can do PAYPAL.
  20. This came with a furuno fishfinder I bought on Ebay. The fishfinder works fine and the guy said the Data converter worked fine. I have no way to test it. I have no use for it. The way it is set up now the 183 end connects to Furuno NEMA Other connector goes to CAN. bus.2000 . See pictures below. Black end goes to Furuno . White end to CAN bus. Please correct me if I am wrong on CAN bus end. These retail around $190 and up . Will sell for $99.00 Offers considered. shipped. Paypal or good check.
  21. I run that 582 fishfinder.Very dependable unit. .
  22. Put me on your list. I would be interested in your 587. PM me Thanks
  23. Try the words" evil eyes" in your heading.
  24. X2 what Bandrus1 said. Cant tell the length but I like 20" of leader. Also those peanuts are more speed forgiving than people realize.
  25. I just swallowed hard and cut off a Couple new Taloras yesterday. Went to harbour freight and bought a 30 tooth per inch mini hacksaw for 5 bucks.Made a perfect cut. Got my twilli tips at fish USA. They have the 1000ft spools of 30lb test wire line on sale right now.
