    I put Scotty’s on my new boat in 2020 so not a lot of years on them but so far I love them. No issues so far. I am sure you will find guys that love their cannons. Good luck! Rick

    I run my Scotty’s off tracks that came on the boat from the factory (fishmaster 196). I through bolted with stainless bolts/locking nuts and put 4” x 4” plates underneath every spot where there was screw holes in the tracks. Even did it for the tracks near the helm that I run my trees off of. Maybe overkill but wasn’t hard to do.

    Good luck. I am sure you will continue to succeed!

    Lakers are allowed in my boat. Laker lives matter!

    Bill left out the best part. He got to reel in a 300 copper with a laker. I couldn’t get a pic fast enough.

    I have to agree 100%. I was fishing I Bay for browns yesterday and the temp was 71 at 48 feet and 60 at 51 feet. That’s a huge break in just 3 feet. I had to adjust my speed in each direction to keep the lures in the temp and down speed I wanted. I didn’t mark and lot of fish so I couldn’t fish just the marks. I feel my probe gave me the info I needed to land 13 browns and 1 skippy king yesterday.

    Bite has slowed down for me the past few days. Fished Braddocks, Sandy and I bay the past 3 days with less fish than last weekend and Monday.

    Lines in at 6am, out 11:30. Looking for browns. Fished Braddocks to green can and back. 70-80 fow. 7-8 with nothing big. Carbon 14 was best spoon. Did put a 11lb, 10oz brown on the board yesterday after a really good day out of I Bay but doubt it will stay the week. Good Luck!

    Nice job Bill. Your boat is on the board twice but don’t think my fish will last on there too much longer.

    Took some family out to try and find them some browns. Started off with a laker before I had 3 rods set. Fished inside till 8:30 and had 3 browns and 1 laker in 70-80 fow. I was told let’s find some kings, so I changed my program and added some flasher/flys with spoons and added a 300 steel. Caught 3 kings and lost a king in 150 fow. Biggest was 21lbs on mag spoon, silver and purple on 300 steel. Would have bet it was a bow after it jumped 5 feet out of the water way behind the boat. My cousins arms were sore after reeling that fish In on 300 steel. No hits on dispeys, and all spoon bites. Carbon 14 and UV carbon 14 spoons took the majority of the fish. 50 degrees was down 80 over 150.

    Get ahold of Whaler. He has an awesome chair on his center console that I have a hard time staying awake once sitting on it.

    Nice, have I been replaced? Lol

    Do you use it with the 9.9 to help with speed, direction or both when trolling? I have never used anything other then the 9.9 for trolling. Once in a while I will turn big motor on if rough and 9.9 needs some help turning into a wave and shut it back off. Would like to learn about using trolling motor along with kicker for trolling. Thanks in advance!

    24v (80lb) or 36v (112lb) for fishmaster 196? I know I need 72” shaft. Mainly for fishing bass and pan fish. Maybe I will use it for salmon with my 9.9 kicker but mainly for bass. Thanks, Rick

    Shawn, I run 6 and if I have 3 people maybe 7. Always 2 dipseys, 2 riggers stacked and just added 300 steel this year. Only bring my top if calling for rain or really hot. If top is open and fighting a fish you can collapse the top and set it on to windshield to give your self more room if needed. Then just put it back when done fighting the fish.

    Shawn J, just a suggestion. I have the same boat. I take my Bimini top and clip it in place when on plane. When trolling unclip the front rods on Bimini top. Take 2 sections of a pool noodle and place them on the frame of the windshield. Let Bimini top sit on the windshield on the pool noodles when trolling so it is out of the way. If you have to get to the bow you have to duck under top or just lift it up. Just a suggestion. Good luck and enjoy the boat. Rick

    I was running smithwick perfect 10. I don’t know what exact sticks the guys fishing deeper had on.

    I fished in a fire dept pike tournament on the 23rd at Conesus. We landed 5 and lost 5 pike. All stick baits in 15-20 fow. The top pike caught were all deep. People were fishing 30-50 fow and using riggers and lead core to target the bigger fish. Hope this helps.

    Go get them lakers!

    My buddy caught the brown weighed in yesterday. It was his 1st trip out this year and asked me what lures have been hot for me. I said Carbon 14 was good for me on kings. He was in 180 fow fishing for kings right out of Genesee River. Said rigger was out 135. Hit a carbon 14. I tried for browns almost every day and landed a handful of small ones and did lose 2 nice fish but that’s how it goes. 2 days I went deep and fished for kings and got a few with biggest being 17lbs. A week off of work fishing is a good thing.
