  3. Try between west nine mile point and oswego make some runs from shore out to deeper water out from the shoals instead of parallel to shore. Week before last i picked up some browns, kings and lakers on spoons and stick baits there. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Once the iPilot went on I never wanted to look at the foot pedal again. IPilot Rocks! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  5. Last week I used my power drive with iPilot while using my yammy 115 to troll. Worked great as long as the wind wasn't too bad. Landed quite a few fish with me and my buddy in the back of the boat while the iPilot kept things running straight. I used the compass direction not the GPS which seemed to work better. Last Thursday it was so windy just couldn't use it. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  7. Thanks for the info I spoke to Scott this morning.
  8. Never had an inboard but couldn't you just get a block heater to go in where the dipstick goes? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  9. Troutman makes great torpedoes at a very reasonable price! I run the 12# torpedoes track great. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. Thanks I will give them a call. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. I am headed up in the spring for some fishing at Fairhaven, I am looking for a place that I can leave my boat for a couple of weeks so I don't have to trailer it back and forth. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks,
  12. I have a minnkota with autopilot on my 18 ft Starweld but haven't tried to use it to steer while using the big motor to troll. I will give it a shot in the spring and report back. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. You can find the information on this thread. http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishing-hunting/topic/35828-16-pound-torpedo-weights-finally/?hl=torpedo
  14. Santa brought me 2 of TROUTMAN87's 12lb torpedoes, I haven't gotten to use them yet but they look great!
  15. Congratulations on the new boat! I have a 2012 Starweld 1800 Pro powered by 115 Yamaha. The boat is very lite and you will likely run across significant bow rise out of the hole as well as a porpoising issue while running even with the motor fully trimmed down. You might consider a set of Nauticus Pro Troller trim tabs. These will fix those issues as well as doubling as trolling brakes incase your big motor won't go slow enough to troll, only bad thing is you have to drill a bunch of holes in your transom. It was tough drilling holes in my new boat but it was sure worth it. Best of luck with the new boat!
  16. Worked for me. Even on the closeout items. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. You could consider something like this connected to a buss bar with fuses. http://www.bluesea.com/products/9001e Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Nice fish! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. Nice one, boy that lure is huge! Sent from my SCH-I535 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. Here is a pic of a nice size Musky I caught in Lake Nockamixon in Bucks County Pa. I released the fish to be caught again. The lure used was a firetiger J9 Rapala. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. Sounds like a mess, I haven't decided on a temperature setup, that will probably be a year or two down the line. Looking forward to trying things out in May when I get it together. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Sweet looking ride big water! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. I haven't tried using the IPilot while using the big motor to troll, I will have to give it a go. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. Thanks for the input, I have found some cannonlinks available for about $109 of course the cables would be separate. If I decide to get the setup I may take you up on that Don. I may upgrade my depth finder to the 1198 si HD so I'll have to make sure everything will work with that. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  25. I personally prefer the Minn Kota's I've had one on every boat and they perform very well. I also think their technology makes the battery last longer. I currently have a Powerdrive V2 55lb thrust on my 18ft Starweld. I added the IPilot autopilot feature, I wouldn't be without the IPilot now, allows me to control the motor anywhere on the boat and hold a course either by compass or gps as well as store tracks for reuse. I also have a Terrova 55lbs with the IPilot as well on my 17ft bass tracker. Both are great motors. Best of luck with what ever you choose!
