So I was wondering if anyone out there using the walker auto stop has tried to use it on braid instead of stainless cable. If so how did you put it on?
We hit Bear yesterday. Went 30 for 31 mostly on Bay Rats green and silver and black and silver. Same depth as you. Great day a lot of small ones though. Tight lines
Can you say I'm a walking thermometer. Wow thanks for the post. Back to packing my colon with venison Keep in mind all fish have certain levels of mercury in them. Even farm raised.
Ditto what Tradman said. I did a complete restore 8 years ago on an old StarCraft walk thru. You definitely want to use a self etching primer. For that small of an area just use the stuff that comes in a spray can. You can get it at lowes or Auto Zone. Then what I did was use non skid paint on the gunwales. I don't have the boat anymore but know who does and it still looks great.
The Genny Launch is okay. We used it today. The water seemed to be down a couple of inches. You could walk on the dock and not get wet. However, that will change with a northeast wind. BTW that is with a 33' boat. Two other guys launched there today both with decent size boats over 20'
Ibay speed limit new law
Gents and ladies FYI as of 5pm yesterday, the towns of Irondequoit and Webster passed emergency town ordinances for the speed limit on Ibay until further notice. The law is if you are within 500' of shore you are to be at IDLE speed, which means in clutch, NO WAKE. Outside of 500' the speed is 5 MPH, NO WAKE. The Sheriff's Office is going to be out there as well as the USCG and DEC. The law is in effect until further notice. This is 100% happening. Be safe and obey the law. Tight lines
for stream fishing I use 8-10lb mainline mono with a simple surgeon's knot to 4,6 or 8 lb flouro leader. On the lake I use power swivels like the other guys. 20lb mainline mono to 12lb flouro in spring time 15 to 20lb flouro the rest. IMO but I am a hack in comparison to the other guys lol
Capt, I will definitely take you up on that invitation in the next couple of weeks. If you PM with contact info, Ill give you a call. I really appreciate it.
nice job. We got a couple on plastics but the other few came on fatheads. We will regroup and go back probably next when it starts to warm up again. Are you hard anchoring or drifting
I guess right now my biggest question is if I have them hooked up right. I know the 998 is but both units are supposed to be linked together. When I go to settings to pick which transducers the units are receiving from it shows 958 bow and 998 helm. Do both units need to be set to 998 helms transducers. Because if the 958 isn't than I don't get nav charts and waypoints only depth. If they should be set to read from their own ie the 958 is set to 958bow and the 998 is set to 998helm then I have a problem with the 958 somewhere. I hate to sound like a moron but this stuff is way to over my head at this point in my life.
