BrokeOff

i have a depth raider. coated cable sux! its such a pain to not destroy it just from basic up and down rigger use..... just trying to make it last through the season. X4 or X4D next year

i dont think you will even need the extra keels. i guess it depends what your pulling, but youre a walleye guy right? short leadcores, short coppers, and flatlines will pull fine with single keel and still get you pretty far to the sides

my clamps are all bent out of shape now and the bracket is beyond fixable. thinking i will just have to get a new one

no the bar is fine. its the actual bracket that wraps around the kicker that broke. so the black metal peice between the clamps that is spot welded to the elbow. that black peice broke in two and the elbow broke free as well.

yep mer cruiser. everything is good on that end just need the bracket and the quick connect (on the kicker side) i believe its 4". im in central square and fish out of mexico bay

i/o to 9.9 yamaha kicker

The bracket cracked on the ez steer today leaving us with no way to steer the kicker.... it broke on the kicker side not the main outdrive side. When I powered down the boat and fired up the kicker this is when I noticed I couldnt steer and the bar was hanging in the water above the prop but luckily still attached at the one side. Anybody know where I can get a new one for the cheapest price? I did some basic searches on amazon and nextag ebay. Just thinking someone on here may know a good site. Thanks if you can help.

http://www.fishusa.com/Product/Eze-Lap-Diamond-Hook-Sharpener just bought one of these and been sharpening all points on spoon trebles. youtube video shows how to use it and do the thumbnail test. hooks are way sharper than when you get them new

mono is awful with dipsys. get wire and you will love it

when you pull spoons behind flashers/spinnys you make the leader longer so they arent affected or barely have a change in action. so a 3-4 ft leader for 8" flasher. a-tom-miks behind flashers are far more productive IMO

maybe im misunderstanding, but i have that same antenna and it works with standard coated cable. im using cannon coated cable right now.

Is there anywhere that sells just the dipsy weight enclosed in the base plate? I had a standard clear dipsy come up cracked with no weight. The rest of the dipsy is fine. Clear dipsys and spoons seem to take a lot of hits for me, even more than black IMO.

yea i tie in mono 30# big game with willis knot. usually 20-30 ft of mono and albright that to braid

ran a 5 and a 10 color sunday out in mexico bay for browns and no takers. changed the 5 out for a 7 still no takers. then started to head out deep late in the day for kings and the 7 color got hit with a dreamweaver get r done SS. That was the only hit we had on lead all day and we missed it. But riggers were popping and divers were on fire all day.

ive been using the 'more action' side of spinny. doesn't matter if they strike cause they're hungry or cause they're aggrivated as long as they strike

pro troll white/glow pro troll pig pen 1 or 2 spin dr. white/glow with green dots or white/glow with black dots spin dr. green nuke all in 8" size shop around online. you can get the standard colored pro trolls for $9 online. I wouldn't spend more than $9.99 or $10.99 on a spin dr either. the stinger taped pro trolls are gonna run you more $.
