That looks like a good choice, just make sure that it will work with your monitor.

Perch is high up so a side view would help, lakers are deep down so a smaller down aimed cone is needed. I once owned a hummingbird transducer that had a choice of 3 different cones and gave sideways, 45 degree and 90 degree cones. In your place I would look for something similar. The guys at Krenzer marine in Sodus Bay will be your best bet.

I'm sorry to see all this for sale. It means that yet again someone is giving up on this hobby. I hope that there is no sad reason behind this. I wish you good luck selling. If it does not work this way , you should consider going to one of the many flea market tackle sales coming up. You might walk away with more than a thousand dollars that way.

I think that you mean the trollmaster which allows you to control the rpm on your kicker. They have a wired one and a wireless setup. As for decals, The same people that make them for cars, can make them for boats. You can also order them online.

If it stays this mild there will be a lot of fat salmon in spring, but neither Lake Ontario nor Lake Eerie will freeze over. that will mean that we will get dumped on on with a lot of lake effect snow.

I am interested ,but can you show an enlarged picture of the tip? The wire line tends to eat into the tip leaving deep grooves.

This is a 2019 production year, marketed in 2021. Light weight (80 #) electric start with less than 60 hours on it. Everything is in top condition. I originally bought it to push my 19 foot Islander when trolling, which it did without any problems at a good speed. I changed to a 22 footer and had it on there for one trip and again it performs really well. It is originally a tiller engine, but I changed it to a remote control setup with the Tohatsu side mount remote controller and all original Tohatsu remote control fitting parts. So now it is a very light weight remote controlled kicker. It can easily be changed back to a full tiller setup. This is a light weight kicker so There will not be too much weight on the transom.

Yes , but I would still have the lines, it would give me a few seconds to prevent an expensive mishap.

There is one thing about the Penn down riggers that nobody seems to use. The second switch. The second switch has wires coming out of the downrigger and can be run to the dash so the riggers can be raised or lowered from the the dash board as well. The switch is connected to to a solenoid like setup on the circuit board so it only activates the motor ,but it does not feed it. I really like that idea and installed momentary switches on the dash. Now when moving into shallower water I don't have to go to the back of the boat to raise the riggers. I am curious as to why no other downriggers have this simple gimmick. Is there a reason that I am not aware of?

Did you ever see something very special while out on the water? I will never forget one September morning on Honeoye Lake. It had been a cold night ,but the lake was still quite warm. There was absolutely no wind and the fog was rising in all the strangest forms and shapes. The surface was alive with sunfish feeding off bugs. I felt as if I was in a different world like Narnia or some fairyland like that. I'll never forget that morning. Or the time, out on Owasco Lake, also in the early morning around sunrise. While slowly trolling for lakers an eagle swept by me maybe three feet away and with one claw it grabbed a fish and flew on. He had seen from hundreds of yards away what I had not seen from 5 feet away. The most amazing experience I had this September. While maybe 2 miles north of Oswego I was out trolling for Salmon wearing a hat with a tomato shape embroidered on it. I thought I heard something above me and looked up. There was a hummingbird maybe two feet above my head checking out this red shape on my hat. I guess it had flown from Canada on its way south to its wintering grounds. I was utterly amazed and delighted to see that little bird thinking that my hat was a flower. If you had a special experience on the water please add it to this thread so we can all enjoy what you experienced

If you or anybody decides to buy a generator for camping, make sure that it has a MUFFLER. The Coleman has only a spark arrestor and it is very noisy. I have one with a honda engine with a muffler and it makes a world of difference in noise pollution, you can hardly hear it

I'm not a native English speaker so I often have a problem with the connections between words and expressions. The puzzles where synonyms are required are more at my level

Yep, some of it,

That took me about 3 minutes. I usually do the New York times word wrangling puzzles.
