I use them plugin rodent things you buy at Walmart. They work great I use them in my RV also. Haven’t had a single mouse since I started using them.

not to steal, but how about rodent control. I have used moth balls, and dryer sheets. Neither work 100%. 

I do have interior cold storage in a garage, but mice like winterized boats!

I love mine, but with my out drive I can't run it on the opposite side of the boat from where the ducer is. No biggie, I only run one on the diver is all anyways, so it's not a big deal.

I have a outboard and was looking at your post with the outdrive in the way of the signal. I used a section of 1"x1" aluminum C channel that I am mounting the ducer too, its about 4' long. I figure I can C clamp it the transom when ready to fish so I can drop it below the outboard, hoping I should then be able to run both sides.

. You'll have less fingers, but lots of friends. I'm crap at sharpening; it I can't do it with a Chef's Choice sharpening machine or the occasional hit with a sharpening steel, then I'm SOL. I'd love to know a guy who's good at keeping blades honed. I'm willing to trade expertise on a confocal fluorescent microscope, if that appeals . Or not.

same here for the split after taxes, ask your accountant lol 

I have about 50’ of fluoro leader on terminal end of copper. Probe attaches to leader not copper wire.

heat shrink at end of lead stops it from poking through

Last 2 years I’ve used red OR clips never an issue on riggers, wire, dipsey or copper

Did you notice any issues with the OR right on the wire or copper, I'm thinking of putting a section of het shrink tubing right where the OR would clamp to help protect the line

I slide on a couple beads and attach a good quality swivel to the wire using the "wire line knot"

Wow, thats a simple knot, looks too easy to be true. I’ll give it a try

On a wire diver I just hook one end of the probe to the wire and the other end to the dipsy.

 

Made it thru last year without losing any probes

What type of knot for wire to probe you using?

thanks

Scott

Termination for probe. I have 19 strand wire was thinking of using the red OR clips with pin to connect probe, and putting heat shrink tubing on the wire to help protect the wire.
How have others attached the probe?

For the time being I had an old android phone that I load the app to but plan to get something bigger. Just curious what kind of show special was there on them? I couldn’t make the show.

15% off $805 with 2 probes, walked out with it in hand

I'll get a tablet and see how it goes. I too have a bunch of things going on, but if we can make adjustments while under way that would be great.

thanks for the advise

Scott

I used an 8" Fire tablet from Amazon - $49 last year
Attached it to my dash with adhesive velcro strips. 
This keeps it in the cabin out of the weather and sunlight.
The display is large enough that I can read it from anywhere in the boat.

Went to Niagara Falls show and walked out with a 2 probe smart troll, look to be a pretty nice addition. Problem is I own Apple no Android, so haha it wont work. I'm looking for what others like to use as a display for their smart trolls

thanks

That is one happy young lad in a lot of pics!

Thanks Pap,

these are leather chain driven, never seen that other than here. Still trying to decide if I want to keep it.

My father in law raised his family of 6 with a sharpening business. He had 2 sets of knifes for each client and would dropped off a set of sharp knifes while taking the other set to sharpen. This was his fathers business and started in the 1920's. So when my father in law turned 91 he finally gave up his last customer, "Charlie the Butcher" some of you from the Buffalo area may know this place. 

I have to sell his "work bench" it would need the buyer to disassemble to remove. Everything runs on 220V with a grind stone, a buffing wheel and yes an old hand stone, plus a air filter box. He never used the air box that I'm aware of but it is there.

I have no idea what this is worth but I don't want to leave it in the house when it sells, which is in the near future. Here are few pics, I would be happy to send more or talk about it. It's in Cheektowaga NY14225, just outside of Buffalo

Yea Les that was one of my concerns, is it that much of pita to remove the ducer while fighting the fish than put it back in the water?? What do most of the guys use as far as screens, meaning downscan, or regular sonar. I would think downscan?? Thanks for any input!!
