Thanks everyone, I fish every weekend weather allows and have no issues cranking them up. I was planning on upgrading my manuals this year already I broke a housing on one at the end of the year . As far as the money part I've learned time and time again buy once cry once. I agree that it could be more convenient The only time I got sick of cranking the ball up was the first time we targeted lakers lol In regards to battery draining how bad is it? I would wire them off my main and my kicker dose not charge it. Would it be a matter of cranking the main motor a couple times a day or do they flat out kill batteries?

Other than the obvious not having to crank them up are there any other advantages or diss advantages to electric over manual. Enough to make the investment? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
Hey fellas, well it's official I'm hooked I haven't walleye fished at all this year due to my new obsession with screaming drags! I now have 3 springs and 1 full summer under my belt learned a lot was very successful this year but what's the next step as salmon start to stage? Do I go back to a spring type setup as they move in and how much longer do you think they will be active for? Will the lakers stay consistent out of olcott or do they start congregating more towards the bar as fall m/winter rolls in? I know it's a bit long winded but any advice would be appreciated!

So I'm shopping for a new unit and looking for a 50/200 for two reasons, obviously marking fish but I don't want to have problems when my subtroll is gone and I go to fish hawk. there are many more units standard with a 83-200 so to you guys that run 83 can you track balls mark fish just fine and if you have a fish hawk do you have interference issues?
East wind was ripping Monday we boxed out at olcott fished 1-7 3 man limit + a bunch of throwbacks rigger parked at 45ft was 49-51 degrees down made for some challenging trolling tho!
Yes thank you!! Great starting point I setup in 130 straight out of the chute had the first fish at 175 headed west in 170-220 unreal fishing. Carbon 14 and bloody death took a combined 14 shots on 300 copper and a dipsy on 3 215 back
If not allowed please delete but I recall a couple of you fine fellows looking for puppies some time back.

There's some gear oil coming out. The hole looks so jagged I can't tell if something broke and shot out or it's a rough finished weep and I have a bad seal its a 2012 Mercury 90 4stroke. Any thoughts?
