  1. Im taking the motors apart right now and the brushes are shot! And everything is packed full of dust!!
  2. Really 6 gauge tho? I thought to was as big as you really needed to go
  3. Haha yea they are pretty sweet wait untill they let you see them!!
  4. Gotta love the Tarpon!! Some day I will get my chance!!
  5. Thousands and thousands of Canada's in Hamlin for the last week and half! Even a few flocks of Snow's around!
  6. I have Cannon Digi-Troll 11's and they seem to be getting slower and slower every season. They dont make most parts for theese anymore so just replacing the motor s are not an option unless you convert them over to mag 10. My starboard side rigger comes up depending how deep it is about half way and gets slower and slower untill eventually its stops. And when you touch the plug it is hot. That beeing said I think the motors are worn out. I am goin to try and shortin the #10 wire I got running to the batteries to see is that helps also.
  7. I know this has been asked 100 times, but does anyone have the name of the place that repairs cannon downriggers in Buffalo? I know screwie louies is on Fairhaven, but I thought there was one in the Buffalo area also. Thanks Matt
  8. Won't let me send you a pm
  9. I will take them if not sold yet
  10. Right around 4000lbs fully geared.
  11. I had to alter the key because of the position of the key way on the original steering wheel shaft was closer to the helm and the spacer would not allow the key to slide in. If that makes any sence.
  12. Thought I would share this with you guys I thought it was awesome!!
  13. I have the collar on the main shaft. I did have to alter the key to make it all fit tho. The play im talking about is in the drive itself.
  14. I am trying to install my mechanical drive auto pilot on my boat. It seems to me that there is an excessive amount of play in the drive unit that mounts to the steering colum ( the brass coupling to the drive housing). Which that play continues all the way out the steering wheel with prolly 3/8 play in any direction. It just doesn't seem right to me for it to move as much as it does. Is this normal for these unit s to move that much? Any help would be great since this is my first ever install. Thanks Alot MATT
  15. I wish I would've seen this thread before now! I just bought a pair of Costa's yesterday. They are sweet glasses for sure!
  16. What rigger style is the control pad for?
  17. Sorry forgot to mention that it holds 1000' of 30lb perfectly.
  18. Convector 30 for me. You can get for $60 at Northwoods Outlet. Your goin to pay probably at least 50 for a magna pro and there is no comparison between the 2. Convector's IMO are the best reel out there for the price.
  19. When the steelies are a little deeper I do really well on DW "Kevorkian" and NK purple thunder. Both with silver backs.
  20. I pretty much have the same ones. They work great! The only thing I can recommend is to paint them with a high viz color so you can see them when they are out a way from the boat.
  21. Nice ice wolf!!
  22. I need to get a custom cushion made for my boat. The guy I usually have do my work told me it wouldnt be till memorial day till he could get to it. Anyone know a GOOD local marine upholster? Thanks Matt
  23. Not the biggest but definitely one of my favorite pics! I call it " Love it then Leave it" Sandy Creek Shootout box Getting a little close!
