    Adding extra cable to the rigger will throw the counter on the rigger off. I had this conversation with a Cannon Tech when I had my old mag 10s upgraded to mag 20's years ago and wanted to put 400' of cable on the rigger.

    Fish Hawk all the way. You dont have to replace perfectly good rigger cable to get it to work. The coated cable is just another thing to spend money on to replace. Analog is a thing of the past.

    Uni to Uni. Easy to tie and very strong.

    Back up for sale.

    I purchased one this spring as my backup unit. It seems good.

    Go ahead and bring in a Sturgeon Rick. I'm pretty sure the Fish and Wildlife guys would love to talk to you!

    It would help grow if the same guys did not win it 2 years in a row . Hopefully I will bring my boat down next year and join in on the fun.

    There is not a wpt button but all you have to do is hit enter twice. The first time, it asks if you want to store a weigh point and the second time you are saying yes. Pretty simple.

    I don't miss those days. Slipping is the best option for sure.

    Whats wrong with the launch at Sandy?

    I use the swivels because the Albright failed twice on me. I would stick to the bigger Spros if you fish Lake Ontario. If you fish the fingerlakes, you can get away with the smaller ones.

    I have some on the boat Matt. If you do not find any, let me know.

    Run it iff of Big boards. Much easier.

    I use a uni to uni on the mono to power pro knot. On the mono copper end, I use a spro with the haywire twist and shrink tubing.

    I also spliced in 6' of 50lb mono on all my coppers to clip on to. The releases hold a lot better on the mono.

    Ask Gator about almost getting spooled on my 300 copper a couple years ago. We hooked a 27lb king in the dorsal fin and it was down to the last couple wraps before we could get the boat turned. With that in mind, if you run copper off the boards, 150yds of backing is not nearly enough. Down the shoot is a little less hairy.

    That rod will work but the reel is a no go. Daiwa Seagate 50's and 60's will work up to a 400' copper. Above that you will have to go to a Penn 345 gti or a Okuma Soltara. My top producing coppers are a 300 and a 500. You will want 250 - 300 yds of 50lb power pro backing. Guys use less but I would not risk getting spooled.

    I run the scotty plainer releases. Buy the double stackers and cut the line. Buy some shower curtain hooks at the dollar store and you get two for the price of one.

    This past Sunday that water was right out front from shore to 520'. Past that it was crystal clear.

    Keep on hating boys. Leave them for my crew and I.

    The currents are strong at times. We have had a lot of wind lately which will add to it.

    Take your altenator to the place on Lyell Ave and have them rebuild your altenator. I had them do mine and never have to worry about charging my batteries.
