  1. Wow...that was an absolute steal right there.
  2. Got it. Well, we can see our oil reservoir but it takes awhile for it to seem to go down as it holds a couple of gallons
  3. I have had to get my islander carb rebuilt this year. The nearest fastrac from me is a 25 min trailer so we are talking almost an hour round trip. That really sucks but I am thinking about doing the haul to fill up. The other option is to buy some new 5 gallon cans. Would need 4 of them at least to keep the boat topped off. From my work, the fast trac is sort of on the way home. This might be the better option
  4. We have had issues with our 1986 evinrude 70 hp. Yes I said 1986. Runs like a top otherwise. Our alarm will go off even though there is plenty of oil in the reservoir. What is this test of mixing oil in your tank and testing it? Do u mean that if you mix oil in gas and the alarm doesn't go off u then know that the bro system is shot?
  5. Defiantly the wireline knot. Simple and strong
  6. I kinda like the free slider idea simple
  7. Wow just goes to show u how those kings will eat. That spoon looks really big for that guy! Love the fish hawk, that will be my next purchase for next year. Can't swing it this year
  8. I run 30lb big game with a 8 foot FCC 15 lb leader using an Albright knot. No issues with fleas nor knot going thru my ocuma rods.
  9. Ok so u use a clip like u would use for a stacker on a rigger? Basically the two pinch pads that are connected via wire?
  10. Knowing that I only get out to hunt down salmon 2x a year and launch out of Mexico, anyone willing to give me a GPS point or two for target locations for kings in Mid July?
  11. no **** I have a couple of those spoons both the regular and magnums. Got them in my dream weaver pro packs! Never caught anything on them, though
  12. I have a kicker on my islander but have considered getting some bags as well. There are times when the bags would be used when I am running the main engine when I need greater steering ability
  13. I need to pick up some of these I used 8lb cannon weights last year didn't quite cut it on my mag10a riggers down deep
  14. I don't understand fully the release on the net part here what does that get u?
  15. I have never used a slider but will try it out. Also wondering if I could use it for trolling my home lake for walleye.
  16. Wow that is crazy. I remember the posts and imagery showing Lake Superior iced over. I guess that doesn't happen often. Was a brutal winter for sure
  17. can someone post a pic of one of these?
  18. haha...I was serious but misread Vinces post! I though he said "Talked to some divers that came into Olcott today. They said the big Baha Was moved to 94 fow.
  19. Wait ru serious Lake Superior still has some ice on it?
  20. Wow keep us posted that is crazy. Do u have down imaging?
  21. Run it out by running the boat or are you referring to the post saying open it up and clean it? I hear people talk about draining the bowl is this where water would accumulate? Well the internet is a wonderful thing. Boat defiantly going to the marina for carb rebuild and replacement of bellows and to service or if need be replace the gimbal bearing. I have always been an outboard person so learning things that to look out for on I/o drives. This will explain the water getting into my bilge! Oh man....
  22. yeah I don't know how to do that so I guess I will be bringing it to our local mercruiser marina....
  23. Ok so I replaced the water/fuel Seperator filter and it is still stalling at idle and at a troll, really knocking allot under 1000 rpm but once I give it enough throttle and over 1000 rpm it runs smooth and fine. Thoughts?
