    I have two Big Jon ball cradles $25 ea used +$9 ea to ship I also have a lot of Big Jon arms , motor mounts, pulleys, etc. The electric motors and switches are all no good . counters are shot. I am keeping the wire spool reels as I still use big jons. If you need something let me know . Parts less than 50% of new. Used show normal wear and tear. USA only . Located in Candor NY I might be able to do paypal I can pay by paypal but I never set up a receive account. Cash is king but checks work also.

    I got looking thru my stuff and Ive got the Sanders fishing guide #2. It covers the fingerlakes , lake o, oneida lake and all the streams and rivers in central NYS. Covers how to rig everything from seth green rigs to downrigging.My guess would be printed late 70s early 80s. Its 323 pages.lots of black and white pictures including all lake and stream maps.the book is 8'' x12'' . Books always been on the shelf never in the boat. price on cover was $17.95 back then. Any interest in this book? There may be many more out there I dont know.

    Hop why do you suppose Pine Valley made such heavy spoons for the fingerlakes? I would guess you would have to run 3 to 4 mph to get them flippin right. BTW those girls were probably Barb and A net..

    After re reading my post I have NOS pine valley spoons,not that book Hell.Its 2AM........
  13. Fishstix
    Interesting. Ive never seen Pine Valley spoons mentioned on this board.I have never seen that book..Ive got a few NOS. They are silver/copper.around 4 inches long. Very heavy spoon . I would put a piece of green tape on and used them on Lake Ontario for salmon.I called them old salmon killer.Never ran them in the fingerlakes .Might be just the ticket for the NLT derby. Sk8teman Got any Pine Valley spoon history? Real copper ,real silver. beautiful spoons don't remember where I got them. They are in the boat somewhere unique shape I will try to get pics.

    Usually every time out my dipsey wire gets pigtailed and I end up cutting it back and re tieing.I have seen where guys would tie a piece of braid on the end of the wire to prevent this. I would like to try this with 40 lb test mono. I don't fish Ontario anymore so I don't get the big salmon rips. I have the mono ,I don't have the braid.On line It shows Tieing this with a Albright knot . I usually run 4 diver setups so tieing becomes a pain. I run snubbers but I broke two this year on fish .That will be another subject this winter. Anyone run mono between the wire and the dipsey?

    Google the word "Tamiron" Then click on honeybee. pink,blue and white spoons seem to work the best for me. Pirate watermelon with seeds work well also. Dam Im getting old.

    I have a garmin 73 DV came preloaded with lake maps. It has nowhere near the accuracy of the above map. Would a Garmin Bluechart G2 vision HD VUSO42R/Great lakes -010-C1122-00 Be the chip I need to get the accuracy of the above map? Or is it the same chip that comes preloaded in the 73DV. There are several chips of that number on ebay. Any suggestions on the correct chip number? Im probably not computer literate enough to update my Garmin .

    We used to winter fish a lot ,seems like the best bite was first week of deer season. Small suttons on top off planerboards trolled slow did the trick. Had a couple hard learned lessons winter fishing. It takes only a small layer of ice at the launch to break the transducers off the back of the boat.Another time we were out fishing and it started to snow we laughed about it as we were in an enclosed cuddy with a propane heater. It snowed enough they salted the roads.Road salt and boats dont mix. Ate the wireing out of the trailer rusted the chrome on the boat just a big mess. I dont winter fish any more. Used to launch out of deans cove or Treman on the S end . There used to be a sandbar at the end of the docks at Treman dont know if its still there.

    They were the original brakes. The rotors were really scoured on the back axle. Back axle the pads were completely worn out metal on metal. Front axle probably had 1/8 inch of pad left.I changed the calipers on the back axle because the pistons had traveled so far I was afraid they may leak after they were pushed back.The wheel bearings were original I did not bother to clean them , just knocked out the races and installed new bearings. You see a lot of boat trailers broke down along the road.hopefully mine wont be one of them...

    I just did the trailer brakes on my 2001 shorelander trailer. I thought I would pass along a little info I learned about them. They were 4 wheel disk surge brakes . When they are right you can slide the trailer tires in A panic stop. The new rotors came painted . First thing I did was spray brake cleaner on them, didnt work, Then tried to wirebrush the paint off. You DO NOT take the paint off the rotors you leave it on. Something new to me. Next time I do them I would probably drop the axles and do the brakes out from under the trailer .The cap bolts that hold the caliper are tight to the axle you need a allen wrench to get them out. It would be a lot easier with the U bolts out of the way. Got my parts at local NAPA store. Had to order them in. 4 new seals ,4 bearing sets. 4 rotors , 2 calipers , 4 sets of shoes, tube of marine grease about $450 bucks. . There are several ways to bleed the brakes on the internet I went old school,Two people, pry on tongue with 2x4 hold, open bleeder,repeat till air stops comming out. Takes a day start to finish with regular hand tools....

    We launched out of Treman Sunday probably around 11am. Inlet was a mudpuddle. Headed over to east side by the drop off and started to set up. Just got a couple boards out and riggers down and got weeded up. This year weeds have been our plague. So we pulled our lines and headed across lake to west side. Set up area of Yacht club cleaner water and cleaner screen.Ran 2 leadcores 4 dipseys 2 riggers. 1st fish was a good one it broke the snubber on the dipsey 2nd time thats happened this year. Next fish pulled a knot in 40lb test ande I think thats my mistake it happened several times this year since I changed to 40lb test ande line.Ive got to find a better knot or go back to 30 lb test. Lead cores with a mix of spoons were silent. The divers with a mix of spoons and paddles were silent except for one hit. Caught a couple lakers off the riggers down around 100ft on cowbells.Trolled probably 1/4 mile past tounganock . Not a skunk but Cayuga has us so spoiled . Regular colors.
