  1. wow nk cant even reproduce them... thats poor. that would explain it tho. are they producing any spoons right now? or is it just a problem for certain color spoons? nks paint has always held up great for me
  2. syracuse area, but ive checked pulaski
  3. Can't seem to find any, even the NK28 ssw seem to be sold out. The only place I have found is to order direct from NK but then you have to pay 5.24-5.50 a spoon + shipping and + tax i bet.
  4. Been using walleye boards but would like to tow some heavier lines like a 300 or 400 copper or 10/12 leadcore. Saw a youtube video and looks like they can tow divers as well. Just looking for input.
  5. i see the reels for $105 on ebay but they are not the highspeed reels. ratio is only 4:2:1
  6. What reel do you guys prefer for 12 color lead cores? want enough room for plenty of backing as well, thinking Okuma Clarion CLR-553LS but seems pricey. 6:1 ratio tho! any good alternatives?
  7. I bought a pre-rigged 5 color core and the knot that came on it from lead to flouro leader is too big it takes some shoving to get it through the levelwind part of the reel. Im using daiwa great lakes 47 sealine reel. Should I cut and tie something or just chance it getting caught up there? I didn't notice the first knot from the braid to lead. That made it through with ease...
  8. what knots should i be using to tie swivels on with 20#/30# mono or flouro? when tying direct (uni/uni) from mainline to leader do i really need a swivel after this or should I leave it bare to snap/swivel? or should i avoid the uni knot altogether and just attach the main line and flouro leader with a swivel? thanks
  9. I was close.... Okuma Classic Pro GLT Rod - CP-DR-862M are the rods I ordered a few days ago (27.95) downrigger rods. Im guessing these are the same but without the metal guides. Should have started this thread before I ordered. The leadcore rod was 39.95 maybe ill put another order in for one of those.
  10. thanks. no it was lead ive heard if you dont have the right guides it will rip the sheath and then the lead rubbing damages the guides.
  11. Do I really need to buy a special "leadcore rod" or will any standard downrigger rod work? Ive heard that the leadcore can eat up the guides...
  12. ill take lot 2. any discount if i pick up? i work right in liverpool, can even pick up later today
  13. im interested if you still have any (looking for 2) sent you an email as well
  14. Trying to get (2) Daiwa Great Lakes 47LC. Black sea line reels with ratio 5:1:1. New or used. Send me a pm
