    Two Moor Subtroll units. One was just removed by Krenzer’s this spring from my boat. The other was bought as a spare a few years ago from a member here. All is working properly from everything I can tell, just upgraded to a new fish hawk. Two probes, displays, power cables, rigger antennas, and radio cords from antenna to displays. Everything you need minus the coated cable. $200 or best offer, willing to ship at buyers dime. Located in Pittsburgh, PA.

    I’d just buy a 100hr maintenance kit from Sim Yamaha, it includes all the necessary filters as well. Just need to provide the serial number. Thats what I do with my 2015 high thrust T9.9

    Try the Piney narrows bridge on a fast moving tide. Just need to time it right and wont have an issue limiting out on the decent sized schoolies. We use spot that we sabiki rig earlier in the day.

    I had some service and electronics work done to my boat this spring at Krenzer's and when I got the call that it was all ready to go and seeing Monday's weather report, I couldnt pass up a quick shakedown trip. Got on the water around 1 PM in Wilson and spent about an hour playing around with the new electronics. Put out a 3 rod spread in 80 FOW straight outta port. Water was a perfect green sorta trapped between two mudlines. Fished from 2PM - 5PM and pulled three good kings and missed a rigger bite that never came tight. Bay Rat LXD in green/yellow (cant afford it maybe?) 200ft back on an inline and 31 rigger with a mag DW game over took the fish. Kings were 10, 12, and 14 lbs on the handheld scale. Also, shout out to Rick at Krenzer's for doing a heck of a job on the electronics install. He handled everything start to finish on suggesting new stuff, re-utilizing old stuff, and custom fitting all the installs. Turned out great. Boat is back in the barn and I will be back to Wilson in a few weeks. Also, fished the AM of Tuesday 4/16 and couldnt buy a king bite to save my life, the good water moved in or out or east or west, not sure but I couldnt find a king willing to bite, and lakers and browns really arent my thing.

    For what its worth, I had great luck buying and servicing my yamahas through Clayton Marina when I lived in Sackets. I bought a new kicker from them, had my F200 serviced, and had a couple warranty issues handled with no problem whatsoever on the T9.9. Couldnt say anything bad about that place for sure. Wish I still lived closer.

    Great info, thanks guys. Thinking about ordering one new saltist and one tekota 600 and seeing which I like the best this spring before replacing any others on the boat. John, you are correct, looking for mag dipsey reels. Figured i would replace the hardest working heaviest loaded reels on the boat first before replacing any others. Rigger reels dont get nearly the punishment that my inside mag dipsey reels pulling meat rigs do.

    Hey all, i'm starting to phase out some old 30 convector diver reels on my boat this season and was looking to buy two new inside diver reels. Looking at everything on the market, is the new 30 Saltist the best way to go nowadays? I see the new okuma stormrunner 30s on Fishusa as well, but I think from what I've read, the Saltist is probably a better reel. All I really have experience with so far is Okuma Convectors, with a little bit of time on others boats with the older saltists.

    Anyone ever tried these? If so, any particular size or colors work better? Saw a couple videos on them and was thinking about giving them a shot on the bar this spring behind a fish flash or echip.

    Similar issue here but with my downriggers and Raymarine AP. Everytime I hit the auto up on my cannon mag 10 stx's, the autopilot loses heading and goes haywire. as soon as the ball breaks the surface, the AP goes back to its original track. I still need to track that one down though... Thinking downrigger power cable and raymarine heading sensor might be too close.

    I second Blue Hill. I ordered 11 trees from him in 2022 to plant this year, and ordered another 14 this year to plant next year. I'm in PA, but Ryan gives good advice for what to plant where, and a good mix of species. I emailed him directly when I bought my 12 acres last year and he has been an excellent resource. All the trees I planted in March of this year are looking terrific, actually got a handful of crabapples on a few of the crab trees that I ordered already. Highly suggest following his planting method too (starter fertilizer, weed mat, stone, wire screen, and 5' fence cage with EMT stakes).

    Ditto. Plus I run 9’ inside rods and 10.5’ outside rods.
