  1. I was not comparing it to any other 21 footer. I was comparing it to a 16 footer.
  2. It is a great boat, but it is not a one man boat. You should always have a partner with you. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. Then you should edit your add, because it says clearly $50
  4. $50 for all the lures and the box? Will you ship? If so,I'll take it
  5. I wanted to go see the show, do a few seminars, buy some goodies and then go to the casino to spend my yearly forty dollar gambling budget. Instead, I got 18 inches of snow and had to plow for three days straight.
  6. They might be reading the different websites about boating and fishing..........
  7. It is about time that you spread the news about the service that you are getting to all the boating web sites in the country and write letters to the different boating magazines. In Rochester,NY there will be a boat show in the end of January, make sure to make the bad service from Starcraft known to the public by handing out flyers at their boot on the show, or at least threaten to do so. Make sure to let Starcraft know that you plan to do these things.Most potential boat buyers will make these things count when it is time to decide.
  8. Does it revive fish?
  9. I'll take them. I can pick them up probably on Monday or Tuesday when the weather allows me to stop plowing. I'll send you a PM.
  10. Is your boat in the water all the time, or is it a "Trailer Queen" that spends most of its time high and dry out of the water and on a trailer? If it is a "Trailer Queen" then you can just sand it a bit, roughening the surface, and paint it with Tractor Supply paint at $25 a gallon, the same paint you would paint a tractor with that sits outside in the weather all the time. If it sits in the water all season you should sand it or rough it up a bit in some other way and paint it with some west marine advised paint. I painted my Islander which is a "trailer queen" with tractor paint 3 years ago, changing the 1985 coloring (breast fed baby poop brown) to the blue and white coloring of the 90ties and it has been holding up great for the last 4 years. If you choose to use an etching primer,you will have to remove all the old paint and immediately after removing the paint on a section brushing or spraying the self etching primer on. That is because it must be on there before the aluminum oxidizes, which happens within minutes
  11. I am planning to run some hot pink me too spoons on my junk lines
  12. You had better start praying to whatever gods you pray to. It looks like a big snow storm is brewing.
  13. I'll be there on Sunday, but if it snows I will have to work

    for sale : usa Longshaft Suzuki 9.9 kicker

    bump
  15. The one in Henderson has been caught again before his probation was over. He will be sentenced again . This time a bit less friendly. As for the one in Washington, this is a family and fishing website so let's not talk about him.
  16. Here is a pic that I forgot to post. It is my daughter catching the biggest fish in all of Costa Rica!
  17. John, that sounds like a great project. If you need it, I have a 9.9 Suzuki longshaft EFI with T&T and remote control box (cables) It has around 58 hours on it. I bought it last fall, but it is the wrong engine for my boat. Maybe it is good for your project.
  18. The best trap would be a Fyke or Hoop net.
  19. Great!!! Now you will have a feast eating them.The restaurant in your hotel will happily prepare them for you. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. Thanks Gill. This letter makes things a lot more understandable.
  21. Let me guess, surf is up..
  22. Alex, fishing in a small lake like Owasco where you know all the ins and outs does not require a probe or a fishfinder, because for guys like us, Owasco has no secrets left. If you are a stranger to a lake, a probe makes a world of difference
  23. x2 Every 1 inch pitch down will raise your rpm by about 200. You will not want to go WOT at 6000 rpm. You probably have a spun hub.
  24. I thought is said Brewers town
  25. The Mahi Mahi is quite close under the shore. They very much prefer a rocky bottom. I caught 2 mahis and between the two fish there was 14 pounds of filets. They are explosive fighters that will make you think that salmon are guppies. The brown boobies will be constantly attacking your surface lures. Although you can rent pangas all over town, it is the cheapest to negotiate with the local fisherman/owner. The agents take a 10 dollar per hour commission and if you can give a guy two or three days of work you can get a serious discount by cutting out the middle man. Mahi Mahi likes to hunt just before and after sunrise although they will hit later as well. The fishermen are used to taking tourists out around six in the AM , but if you can get one to take you out a bit earlier you will do better. Good Luck. Imperial beer is pretty good!!
