Tall Tails

Be sure you deploy the bag on the side of the boat that your prop is spinning other wise it will pull your boat sideways. In otherwords a standard rotation prop is spinning to the right. Bag in on the right. You may not need a bag if you can go slow enough and also adjust your carb properly. My motors idle comfortable at 550 rpms and with edelbrock carbs they sip fuel. No kicker needed. I can also with one bag in get my 9000lb boat to go 1.0. It will take some effort but you can get it to do what you want.

Will it not slow down enough? What is the slowest speed it will go with the gear deployed?

Yes as long as you do not violate the NYS hook point total.

I have them side by side. There is roughly a .4 difference. The depth raider performs better at slower speeds. My brown trout program is built around it. I really like the fish hawk when it comes to salmon fishing. But to answer your question there is a .4 to .6 difference.

Please feel free to join us as we host Capt. Chris Yard from Irish Knots Sportfishing as he will chat about Spring Brown Trout Fishing in Mexico Bay. Chris is also the Guide Consierge for the Tail Water Lodge and he will be telling us about the new lodge on the Salmon River. The meeting is open to the public and is held at Gander Mountain in Cicero, NY. It will start at 7pm See you all there. Brian

Grind bite tourneys are the best tourneys!

Nick is correct DSC is not available in the Great Lakes as of yet.

I am not sure the red slide that holds them upright would stand up to the pulling of a planer board. They are not really designed to be used that way.

All mono twists you just dont see it like FF. By the way word is Cortland has stopped production on FF. So what is out there is all that will be left. 30lb Sea Flea for me.

This descision did not come easily. The committee has been discussing this for some time now. Every angle was looked at and personal feelings had to be put aside. In the spirit of the rule this is the correct course of action. Nobody wants to be DQed or worse stopped and have an issue. See everyone very soon!

I wasnt going to advocate it but if it isnt written all over your truck and boat I guess you look like a Rec fisherman.

This is spot on. One of my teammates was a Syracuse PD DOT officer and I confirmed with him on this.

I am all set! Thank you for all the responses.

You can do it! Sounds like you need a new piston. There should be a make and model on it somewhere. Then Google it!
