  1. They could just use that blow up doll that was seen on their boat a couple years back.
  2. I'm sending you a PM Dave.
  3. That's really cool.
  4. Captain Jason Franz needs our prayers. Jason is currently in ICU at Park Ridge Hospital in a medically induced coma.
  5. I had a 27lb king almost spool me a couple seasons ago. It was hooked in the dorsal fin. Before I could get the boat turned, I was down to 100' of backing! I have had a couple hooked in the top of the head that were hard to slow down too. I would rather have a little bit of insurance than get spooled.
  6. IMO, 150 yds of backing is only a good idea if you run the rod down the chute. If you run it off a board, you are asking to get spooled. I have had a couple kings hooked funny and almost get spooled with 300 yds of backing off the boards.
  7. It's easier to respool and scrap the tangled!
  8. The thicker the copper, the less user friendly it is. I have 45lb copper on all 8 of my copper rigs.
  9. I am selling bulk sinkers. I have 3/4 bank sinkers, 5/8oz bell sinkers and 5/8oz drop shot sinkers. They come in bags of 50. Right now I have a good number of bell and bank sinkers made up. I'm waiting on more drop shot swivels. Prices are as follows: 3/4 oz bank sinkers - $20.00 / 50 + $5.00 shipping 5/8 oz bell sinkers - $18.00 / 50 + $5.00 shipping 5/8 oz drop shot sinkers - $30.00 / 50 + $5.00 shipping
  10. I got the chance to hunt the depot six years ago. To say they stick out like a spot light is an understatement. I could see multiple white deer walking through very dense brush like the brush was not even there. The regular brown whitetails that were walking with them were unseen until they walked out of the brush. They would be decimated if they were in the wild.
  11. The problem with coated cable is it only allows you to run the probe on that rigger. With the Fishhawk X4, you can run it on any rigger on the boat.
  12. I might be all set. I will let you know.
  13. I will take the Big Jon rod holder for $40.00 if you still have it. Let me know.
  14. Not what I'm looking for. I need the rod holder and the small track that comes with it.
  15. There is way too much food in that lake. The dink gills and perch in the lake make for a lot of competition! I hope we are not done for the season on Honeoye. I have a bad feeling...... The forecast after Wednesday looks OK but that could change. I would stay up north and have your buddy come join you Kevin.
  16. I'm looking for two in the Silver finish in good shape.
  17. That is not antifouling paint. That is a coating for go fast boats. VC-17 does not require sanding for recoats.
  18. Biolux is no longer used. I used it before Biolux and it worked just as good.
  19. VC-17 is the only way to go. Works great and easy to apply.
  20. I think you will be able to use a boat by Thursday Les. Not looking good. The weatherman said record warmth on Wednesday with wind and rain......
  21. Spudded my way out to the trench from the east side today. Shore ice was far from stellar but the main lake ice was good. 3-3.5" of black ice. 33 keeper perch came home. Tips downs and tip ups were a waste of time. Jigging was fast and furious. Lots of dinks with keepers mixed in.
  22. I will give your number to the owner of the reels and have him contact you.
