  1. In addition to all the great advice you got so far , just the purchase price of the boat will be your cheapest expense. Remember boat= break out another thousand. Nobody needs a piece of junk sitting around the house to remind themselves of a poor decision. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  2. Why not just get a credit card with low interest and pay for it that way. If your credit rating is what you say it shouldn't be a problem. Don't make minimum payments or it will take you 30 years to pay for it and you would pay more in interest than the boat itself. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

  6. The only bear i saw while hunting had four cubs

  8. should be able to crimp it down tight enough. Give a few good tugs to make sure they not slipping.
  9. I use a #3 spro coastlock snap with a crimp sleeve for the wire.
  10. Listen to pap on this one. He knows this electrical stuff Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  11. What kind of downriggers do you have ? If cannons with ion control they are always on and will drain battery. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  12. Lol yeah I knew the direction of this thread. Have fun seeking this "holy grail". Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  13. Welcome to LOU gentlemen. Best advice is to just check regularly and follow the reports as they come in. Thimgs change on daily basis on the Lady so you need to be flexible with your tactics. Good luck and many tight lines. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  14. Good advice from fishtails and oncebitten. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  15. I agree Rich. SeaTow or Boatusa is your AAA on the water. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  16. Without a doubt I feel the same way Broke but i think a lot of guys on Lake O dont have a membership I could very well be wrong. But i would still help a boater in need over worrying about missed fishing time Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  17. Sea tow doesn't operate on Lake O But your are right that you do have to rely to a large extent on fellow boaters. Unfortunately you do hear how the majority wont help out Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  18. If your only running two riggers I would just leave it like they are presently. You shouldnt have issues with them crossing or getting into your props. Seeing the latest pic I dont see why you need to change anything Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  19. Yeah That is unfortunate how some of our fellow boaters act when some one is broken down on the water. Discovered this first hand this year when I broke down on the Jersey shore this year. Boat Us was quick to respond but other boaters wouldn't even get out of way on the tow in.. Operator said its very common.
  20. Doesn't BoatUSA operate out of Oswego ? They could have towed you in even if you not a member Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  21. Hard to argue with that logic Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  22. Buy two new rods to replace the two butts that are defective and send back defective butts with the new tips and get your money back.. I know it a pain in the ass at this point but I don't see any other work around given you changed the tips already. Good Luck.
  23. Fortunately you have the skill of a great taxidermist. If i get something i want mounted i will surely seek out your services Where is your shop located just for future reference.
  24. Wow DJ pretty serious stuff there Makes a sane mind re think the see sickness issue.
  25. Finch they are cool when a king hits. They pull them done like it was just a little bobber.. The only problems i have with them is when they dive, will have to try some of the suggestions listed.
