  1. I have probably a dumb question, but here goes. I picked up some new spoons with single point hooks. Is the action of the spoon changed if I put on treble hooks? Thank you.
  2. I was towing my boat the 2 hrs. to Lake O each way with my F-150 with the 5.4 and getting around 10 MPG. (that's stretching it) It never had the chance to get into overdrive with it downshifting so much. I found a 2000 Ford Excursion with the 7.3 diesel and 225,000 miles on it, and paid $5000.00. I get over 15 MPG towing 70 MPH across the thruway, it doesn't feel like there's anything behind me. (better than 18 MPG highway without a performance chip)and I have no worries taking that truck anywhere. The mileage on a diesel means nothing. As long as the vehicle was maintained, and in my opinion, when towing nothing is overkill.
  3. Storm Thundersticks, 18 new in packages and 2 Rebel Fastracks for sale. There's 8 Thundersticks 5" long, 2 Deep Thundersticks 5" long, 3 Jr. Thundersticks 3 1/2" long, 5 Deep Jr. Thundersticks 4" long. The Rebels are jointed 5" long. Also a Plano Tube File storage case. 14"x9"x3" deep. Has 35 4" long X 1 1/8 dia. covered tubes. I used these for trolling flies. $50.00 for all plus shipping
  4. That's why they call it fishin'
  5. You clip the swivel around the downrigger cable so you don't lose the release, and attach 1 release clip to the cable at the depth you want, and the other release clip to the line.
  6. Thank you for the report. I was actually hoping to do the same this weekend, but I guess I'll call it a year and hope for a better next.
  7. That might have been my rig. I had a big king break off at the boat Wednsday and he stole my white glow board and sherbert fly.
  8. I have a Lowrance HDS unit on my boat and have just added a seperate chartplotter. You're better off with what you have already in my opinion.
  9. I think if you send it back to Cannon they'll upgrade it to a newer model
  10. Voted for you yesterday and today. Hey guys, he's only down 15 votes, help him out.
  11. I can send you pics of how I did mine, but they are both Honda,s.
  12. You can get KRUD KUTTER at Lowes for $10 a gallon. Spray it on, and hose it off. You might have to rub very little if it's real bad.
  13. I have the HDS 5 combo with the lakes chip, and am very happy with it's performance. You can mark fish, and find/go to them easy enough. The only thing I wish though was that I had the money to buy the HDS 8, it's got all the same features but instead of scrolling to find/change things, theres a button for each option at the bottom, also the big screen is really nice when you split the screen.
  14. Spice your fillets the way you like them, and then roll them up with a toothpick or 2 holding them together. Drop them into boiling water then when done ( it don't take long) immediately drop them into ice water. Let them drain and get your favorite cocktail sauce for dipping. Make sure you have enough, they go fast, enjoy.
  15. SOLD to a very happy Oswego guide. Thank you Andy, see you in the spring.
  16. Nothimg unusual about this at all. He's not the only one that wants the boat, and he's not the 1st to call me on it. This isn't an internet auction. The 1st guy that called and wants to see it get's the 1st shot at it, what's wrong with that? It's called being honest.
  17. Unfortunately I need the room in my NY garage, so my hardly used 96 Willie drift boat is now for sale. It's 16', aluminum, 3 color paint, has a fish box under the front seat, comes with 3 wrapped oars with tips and oarguides, rod holders,rear anchor, and side rear anchor, and set up for a front anchor. There is also a cutout in the transom for a long shaft outboard. The bottom is NOT banged up, and the interior is in like new condition. There are some scratches in the paint on 1 side from the trailer, but this boat is in great condition, I'd say a 9 out of 10. The trailer is solid with new tires, I also have a hardly used (less than 5 hrs on it) Merc 9.9 2 stroke longshaft motor that I bought new as a leftover. $3000.00 without the motor, $4000.00 with. I will not sell the motor alone until the boat is gone. The boat is located at my camp just off I-90 exit 29A if anyone would like to see it in person. Bring cash and take it fishing , a nicer used drift boat you won't find. My cell is 203-233-4936.
