I have never actually checked it, I have my low voltage alarm on my FF set to 11.5 and it's never went off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have an old set of mag 10's that I'm replacing this year. I have ran scotties and like them but the digi 5's have really caught my eye. I fish alone most of the time and being able to set the depth hit the button and go do something else is really intriguing. I can't find any info anywhere on what new hummingbirds link to them either? Any of you guys run them and if so are they worth the extra money? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I use a house battery in my boy 16ft Starcraft. I run my helix 9, helix 5, fishhawk x4d, marine radio, CD player and charge phones of a group 27 that's not hooked to the main battery. Never had a problem and never have went below 11.5volts with the group 29 I have now. I am getting new cannon digitrol 5's and was wondering if you guys thought I could hook them to the house battery or if I should run them of the main battery hooked to the main outboard group 27? My kicker is a 5hp 4stroke and doesn't add enough charge to make any difference. Thanks for any help in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Another vote for madd docks, I have triples and couldn't be happier. My only complaint was that they rattled a little, 1 wrap of electrical tape cured the issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

I have a 6hp merc on my 16ft Starcraft. Couldn't be happier, it does vibrate a more than a twin but with a rubber mat on the transom it doesn't rattle the boat or anything. I have the sailboat prop and I couldn't be happier starts 2nd pull and will run all day on a gallon of gas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll make the drive for hull and trailer and buy motor local. I fish alone 95% of the time and a tiller allows me to run 3 lines with no problem at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I haven't locked one down yet but so far the Hewescraft open fisherman is at the top, it has everything I want just a little narrower than I wanted. I want a wide open back of the boat and it seems like all the main brands of aluminum and glass have the electronics lockers and rod lockers and storage taking up a ton of space where I want all my space. Having my phantom made me realize how nice it is having a big open "dance floor" I think it's even more Important in a tiller because I'm taking up half of it with my seat.

Hard to beat the smokercraft Phantom series, I bought one new last year and just sold it. I didn't sell it because anything was wrong with it but I am a tiller guy and always will be. I loved everything about my phantom except for the steering wheel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking for advice on a 2015 Starweld 18 Pro

Neutral and turning. It can cause a mess but it makes it a lot easier to bring in a board and your copper will drop out of the way usually.

Do you only run one a side? When I'm only running 1 a side I run my otter boats but don't want to bring stuff in to set back up. With my new sst pro mags I have no problem getting my 200 out around my 3 and 400.

Extending the boom
Buckmaster7600 replied to Rich s's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
I extend mine out because I have a narrow boat and it opens up the chute. -
copper and lead core for side planners?
Buckmaster7600 replied to mikebarb86's topic in Open Lake Discussion
Depends on how deep you want to fish, deeper than 35-40ft I use copper. Long coppers are expensive but catch a lot of fish. -
running copper?
Buckmaster7600 replied to vernman's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
I don't know what you have for a boat but I have a 16.5ft aluminum and if I have 3 guys we run 9 rods, 2 coppers a side 1 dipsey a side and 2 riggers with a wire thumper down the chute. There are times I'll pull a copper or 2 to add dipseys . Yes tangles happen but it's part of the game. With an inexperienced crew I would drop a few rods but they would likely be riggers and the thumper before I pulled a copper. Day in and day out coppers and dipseys are what catches the most fish for me. -
Point the rod tip at the board all the way in until it's about a foot from the rod tip.

I will only use scotties for this reason, you call talk to a person and it seems like they personally put it in the mail. 2 weeks ago I broke a clutch plate and lost a couple pads when I was diagnosing on the water called from the lake and the lady told me what I needed and over nighted the parts.
-
If I was starting today I would buy a 300 and a 400 copper and a wire dipsey or 2. Day in and day out my copper and dipseys out fish riggers to the point that I have pulled them to run more copper or dipseys.

Downrigger rod
Buckmaster7600 replied to Fishhubter29's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
8'3" ugly sticks med lights, best rods I have ever used for riggers. I also have 7' uglys that I use if I'm stacking. -
I built a seat base under the passenger seat with cubby's for the balls and torpedoes and my prope is in there too.
