  1. I had the same problem trying to sell my 22 Islander last year. Tons of great gear, professionally installed, garaged 50 weeks a year and nothing but tire kickers and low ballers. Put an ad on Boat Trader.com and sold it quickly. Turns out the guy that bought it was from Balt. Md.He was Russian and had it sent to Russia. Apparently they have unreal salmon fishing there, both Atlantics and Pacific. Good luck with your sale. Trouble with selling a boat near Lake Ontario is boats are a dime a dozen but most of them are in rough shape and need tons of maintenance. Looks like yours is MINT.
  2. That's what I use on my boat is the Big Jon Pulleys, they work great.
  3. I've got a box of them, maybe 15-18 Thunderstick Jrs. Haven't really used them in quite a while, make me an offer??? PD
  4. Can these bait pkgs be shipped??? I'm willing to pay for shipping + handling,thanks.......PD
  5. Hate to wish for a blow but I think that's what the lake needs to turn the fish on. Guess it's coming this weekend. We'll see what happens!!!
  6. Buy Dan Keating's books on Great Lakes Trolling and Keating on Kings. Twenty bucks each and well worth the price in knowledge, The guy is good and the books are very easy reading.
  7. Spoons off the downriggers, stick baits off the boards, long leads, stealth presentation w/ flocarbon leader 10-12 lb test. Shallow in the morning (6-10 ft) of H2O. Take it deeper as the sun comes up.Always troll with the sun at your stern early and late. Natural colors unless in stained waters. Only takes a few doubles and a full cooler and you'll get it right. Good Luck
  8. Yeah, we call those knuckleheads FLATLANDERS.
  9. I think he can have it rebuilt with the right parts. Thanks for the replies guys.
  10. I got a brand new Merc Tank 6 gallon if interested. Make an offer...PD
  11. Got mine thurs, and they are GREAT. Nice job troutman.!!!
  12. I have a friend looking for a lower unit for 1998 Evinrude 50 HP. If anyone might have one or know where there's one available. Thanks.............PD
  13. One thing I love about Fat Nancy's is the guys are always so personable and helpful. They beam with enthusiasm and make you feel good about spending money there. Great Place, see you May 11th...............PD Buoy
  14. Are you sure the freeze plugs had been put in prior to your maiden voyage??? I did that once will my Islander and realized the freeze plugs hadn't been put in. Just a thought.
  15. We fish Lake Ontario every year twice or more for 30 years for a week at a time, have a million lures in which a dozen work. We also fish Sebago lake in Maine, somewhat similar to Senneca Lake. If we want to consistently catch fish on Sebago we have to use BAIT,sewed on. It's an art form but it works. Maybe you should try it, just a sugestion. Good luck. Another bit of advice.... Buy Dan Keating books on Great Lakes Fishing and Keating on Kings............. PD
  16. Let me know Troutman when you can ship two, and I'll send you a check or pay-pal for $94. Thanks ..... PD
  17. Could always remove the freeze plugs just to be safe. Don't forget to put them back in before you launch....
  18. Keep me posted Troutman, I'll take two 16 lbers as soon as available. I'll be glad to pre-pay. Thanks...PD
  19. My friends since College always called me Pd boy since my intials are P.D. and my first name is Pete. So the name of my boat is PD BUOY. It evolved from a 19 ft Starcraft to now a 25 ft Baha Gle. Can't wait for the start of the new season. LOU Rocks
  20. Send me your address or pay pal and i'll give you $53 for one Thanks.
