I like The Rada Sharpeners they look cheap and they are but they work have them in the boat,camper,house and at work.
They are quick and easy and if it goes for a swim no big deal
Try to find a manual downrigger used then start looking for some Sutton 44 spoons they slay lakers down there.Fish them a few feet off the bottom at less than 2 mph.Try a mag dipsy later in the summer they will get the depth your looking for. Good luck beautiful lake ....
Do the 9.8 4 stocks have a charging system if so does anyone know how many amps they put out?I have had honda's in the past and been pleased but they are expensive
Let me see if i have some or i can take some tomorrow all the cushions are still in plastic from the factory.
We took all the cushions out when it was new.
Thanks for looking
If you havnt looked at a coal stove or furnace lately you should . We put a coal furnance in last winter and cant believe i heated with wood so long much less work and way more heat.Keystocker all the way

Rick thanks for putting this out .My wife has been looking for sun glasses for 2 years now and could not find anything small enough for her.We spoke to Mike over the phone and he said he would spend the time to find her the right frames and boy did he after 2hrs of trying frames she got a pair of Maui jims that look and feel great!!! Customer service yea APlus in my book plus a discount shop local its good for everyone.
Thanks J&J
I found some small swivels that go thru the eyes then tie on 50lb braid to another coast lock swivel for the diver.Make sure that whatever line you use is a little shorter than your poll.Try it you will like it
