Wanted WTB. 8,9 or 10 oz Bottom Bouncers
Jack posted a topic in Classifieds - Buy, Sell, Trade or Rent
Hi! Would like to buy some heavy bottom bouncers 8,9 or 10 oz each. Need at least 4 of them. Thanks JT -
Looking for some 8oz bottom bouncers built with heaver wire (0625) for deep water walleye fishing Thanks JT

Looking at the pictures of coosboard on their website I notice in marine applications it is glassed in place with resin/epoxy and some cloth. That process makes the board very rigid. On an aluminium boat you can only bolt the board to the transom . Will it be rigid enough to support the engine if not encased in resin/epoxy and cloth ? Good luck! -
Any current news on perch? Would love to give it a try. Thanks

So fished out of the Catt Monday. Fished 60 to 80 feet worked hard for a few nice eyes. Tried perch in 50 ,caught a few and some monster cat fish on lite tackle. When we come back in to the launch DEC was there asking about our catch and told us the lake had turned over and everyone was working hard for fish So all in all was a great day to be on the water -
Like to go fishing Monday out of the basin looks like the lake might lay down for a bit. Anybody hear of anybody catching eyes in the area? Haven’t fished in a few weeks and not sure where to start. Thanks

These motors run very lean. I removed the small plug on the carb that covered the needle valve and richen it up . Because these do run so lean it doesn’t take much dirt or fuel deposits to restrict the gas flow and make them run poorly. Good luck

Kind of autopilot. Have a 19’ stripper with 150 hp and 8t hp Yamaha. I also have a Minnkota Ulterra with ipilot I use for autopilot. The 8 hp pushes the boat and the minnkota steers the boat with a remote or through my Humminbird helix. Can pick a heading , follow depth contours or select waypoints and off we go. Works great plus it has an anchor feature too. just depends how big your boat is , but they did just come out with a 87” shaft for larger boats.

May have nothing to do with your problem but my neighbor had the same issue . Gas in the oil. Turns out he bought a new fuel tank which are now sealed they have a vent to let air in but not out. So the sun would heat up the tank and force the gas into the motor. I also believe Yamaha's have a sensor that won’t let them run if there is to much oil (and gas) in the crankcase. He had to add a pressure relief valve to his fuel line.

Probably going to be the nicest day for fishing til next summer. Good luck!

Anybody running these off riggers ,if so how far you running them from the ball ? I have been using the 100’ rule ( down 60 back 40 etc) -
Last time I fished out of SBH we got back at 6 and the fish clean station was closed. Anyone know the fall ours for the station? Thanks

If you do have the Windfinder App is a great tool for wave height

New to fishing for walleye in the basin . Trying to get a feel how late in the year You can target walleyes in the basin. Seems that they are moving deeper. Any thoughts? thanks jt
-
If your asking me 63 feet. Probably should have launched at SP because we were a lot closer to SP then SBH. But 63 close to the fence. Fish were on the bottom . we run 2 riggers and 2 wire divers.

Fished Erie out of SBH ran gambler rigs on one side and a stick and spoon on the other trolling at 2 mph. Boxed out with 18 eyes The gambler rig out performed the stick and spoon 2 to 1 Them eyes LOVE worms

Jakeybaby, thanks for the info. After fishing lake o for years for trout and salmon I like the fact you can troll these in Erie at the same speed as lake O. Just feel you can cover so much more water at 2+ then the normal 1mph for normal worm harness. Plus I should be able to run them along side my stick baits . Just ordered some ..thanks again
