vetting

I have a Raymarine Evolution 200 with a 70R control head paired with a Sport Pilot to turn the wheel and hooked up to a a67 chart/sonar. The Sport Pilot is hard to find now, but its the best combo there is. If you cant find it as a package, your next best bet is to look into an octopus helm and pair it up with another system.

Sorry but I sold all of these awhile ago.

I can usually troll down to 2.2 with my 25' cuddy with a V8 mercruiser, but I have the idle set low (still has great oil pressure). I opted for 2 of the 18" bags so I could deploy them both. In the past I just used a 1 gallon bucket on each side to slow me down if being pushed by the waves, so I figured 2 18s would do the trick. Plus with a bag on each side it helps make the boat more stable.

Ive always just tied 2 or 3 overhand knots further up the line and pulled it tight with pliers. Then just trim off the extra tag. Boated multiple 20lb+ angry kings and have never had the wire break. Another key is to make sure to put a large bead on the line before tying you knot. This prevents from sucking the swivel up into the roller or rod tip. Also, make sure you keep tension on the line when you are storing the rod.

Awesome deal - I have 4 of the SH that have had the drag upgrade. I used them for my shorter cores. Wish I had the cash otherwise I'd pick these up for flatlines.

It should still read surface temp without the probe in the water. Are you sure the ducer cable is screwed in all the way? Also check the full run of the cord for damage. If you email fishhawk with issues, they usually respond within a day.

So you had the same issue a few years ago? The blame should be put on the manufacturer....but come on. Its a 10 color full core - how hard is it to make a spool with the number of intended colors. Maybe it so stealthy, the manufacturer has a hard time counting I ended up taking some credit from the vendor and buying an entire bulk spool to finish off switching over the rest of my leadcore rods.

Just heard back from the vendor - they were sorry for the mixup and are correcting the situation. Top notch service!

I just got 3 spools of it and went to rig it up. The first 2 spools only had 9 colors on them (which made me waste a section of it). The 3rd spool wasnt dyed correctly - the red was brighter red and the black was a purple/silver color. Little frustrated that all 3 spools were defective - waiting on an answer from the vendor as to what they are going to do.

Did you ever get an answer to this?

Bwwhahahaha Women should be taken aside at some point and told they dont need all of that "make me pretty stuff". Take it from a guy who lived with someone for 6 years in an 850sq ft house who had serious stuff issues. The 2nd bedroom was all her stuff - 80 pairs of shoes and boots. Enough clothes to fill a dresser, under bed drawers that I built, and 10 totes because there just want a dresser on earth that is big enough. All of that stuff is so they can look pretty for other women on the most part. I dont know about you guys, but I'll take a woman with minimal makeup, a normal Tshirt and ripped up jeans any day over someone all done up. So the moral of the story is, everyone should just go buy they want

Northwood just got the new bluetooth display units in. Just ordered mine - you have to call in. Was 329.99 + shipping. Still feeling a little burned by Fish Hawk since they just introduced their X4D and then came out with the new unit a year later and didnt offer any trade-in.
