These guys are super great folks to deal with!! They did some work for me and I was super pleased with their work!! Anyone who knows me knows I’m picky plus I paint my own lures, so if I send lures out to get painted they are definitely top notch guys!! These are some of the Flicker Minnows I had them do. I had 2 different sizes painted by Hooked!! As you can see top notch guys..PAP.

Nice eye, bet that drum pulled like a mule!! Nice variety of fish!!

Last I was up with my daughters I ran a spoon clean off the riggers my number back is 35-40ft and a cheater 15ft off each rigger ran walker deep dipsy on a 3 setting and wasn’t long I got rid of the cheaters and just ran the 4 that was plenty enough to keep tract of, I’m not the best first mate!! As dropped a slob of a Laker right at the boat. I was as sick as the girls were.

No I have the X4D I have the sub troll on my other boat to use around home, but with the little 4cyl I use bags to slow her up.

Holy Moly that is a fatty, with eye fishing being next to nonexistent in the NE part of LakeO I’m happy to see a pick of any eye, but that pic really put the withdrawal symptoms into overdrive!!! Nice going Justin!! Are you guys having a tuff go of it on Otisco??

Yea frogger, when everything is level or kicker motor down and the outdrive is down, my rod runs at a angle forward towards the main and everything works smoothly but come time to fly I put a piece of all thread on my I/O bracket so when I’m in the up mode my lower unit the quick disconnect is a few inches about the water which helps some what but that kicker I still get nervous going out their come the cold water season.!!

Thank you so much for your time and effort to take the pics, I see know how it works that’s really cool!! Can I use or do they make something like that for a I/O that’s what I’m dealing with. LOL then my kicker is mounted on my swim platform which sets behind the outdrive. Thanks again!! PAP

O so the pump in the kit activates the power steering?? I’ll have to watch it again, but I still have to have the bar between the motors?? I don’t have power steering all the way I guess they call it power assist, I have a hydraulic cylinder in the rear of the boat hooked to transom support housing??

Thanks for the video Krystain!! I’m looking to use a stand alone for a kicker motor autopilot so I don’t need to use the connection bar. For the reasons I can’t use a EZ steer system when I need to tilt my kicker up to go out or in the bar doesn’t allow enough movement in the hiem ends to allow me to tilt up the kicker in the up and locked position!! Pjprod this system sounds like it might work, I just can’t figure out how this system works, but I’ll keep searching til I find something, does this system go inside The transom or on the outside of the transom?? Thanks again guys. PAP.

Thanks for all the info guys!! I really appreciate it. What I want to do is get rid of the bar!! And have the kicker do the steering. I have the EZ Steer system now, but I can’t put the bar on before I leave because even if I could roll the kicker in towards the center of the boat it’s to much of a angle and the rod binds so I snapped an end off and now I have a longer one and that one I have the brass pin bent that hooks in to the main motor. I also have my kicker made fast to my swim platform with a bracket I made from the Adventure Marine comp. They give you all the dimensions. LOL so my situation is a little different. I have to climb out on the swim platform to hook the rod up, not bad in the summer but early spring and fall it gets a little nerve racking to say the least especially with 2-3 fters or better. This is why I want to drop my kicker down and have my Merc. 15hp with a 12 amp charging system which keeps my batteries full with 2 cannon riggers 3 sonars going a radio and a stand alone GPS and a light bar. I don’t use the light bar other than the spring eye fishing. So I’m looking for autopilot for the kicker itself. Thanks again guys maybe now you can see why I want to get rid of the EZ Steer Rod.

The second pic is what I thought might’ve been a Atlantic because of the spotting and the green top. I’ll take your word as I’m not that big into the trout scene, with the walleye fishing being almost non existent a man gotta do what a man gotta do, plus there’s a lot more activity going on for the kids to keep interested!! Thanks for your expertise and sharing your pics. PAP.

Are those two Atlantic’s?? Nice job and great pics. Our browns were that size but the kids couldn’t keep them buttoned up, nice job again and we saw you out there along with other charters, great time!!

LOL, thanks, I’m exactly like you you, when it comes to eating fish🤮. other than walleye and perch, and haddock that’s it. I removed the skin on one and just filleted the fish with skin on to try and smoke them. The color was bright orange definitely in the system awhile. Even hade adipose fin so might be a good fish. Was the meat soft or firm! I was surprised as to how squishy the meat was I thought it would have been more firm, but I never filleted such a thick fish.

Do you know if it’s for the kicker or the main and what was the cost?? Hopefully you could shed a little as to what model you used. I was hoping to find one that I didn’t have to run via a sonar unit. Thanks for any help.

Yup the old saying still stands, you can’t fix stupid!!
