    I've had mine for three years and never had that problem. Obviously yours weren't sealed properly. Don't remember the cannon warranty but If I had to put money on my mag 5 I'd rather put that money on magnum-metalz.

    Very nice place, I fished lac Hebert about 10 years ago. We had to drive to Clova and than take a flight in a beaver for about 45 mins. All the camps are on an island. We were there for a week and every single day we were landing walleye after walleye, lots of pike too.

    I looked at the videos and it's a great option.

    Sorry nickyhoyboy I didn't want to interrupt your post. I have two cannon magnum 5 and they're not smooth at all. I would like to change them for models with different speed options or at least the slow start and finish when moving the weight.

    The only thing I didn't understand about the spec is ''and a liquid smooth clutch which eliminates need for auto stop''

    I looked at those couple weeks ago and was wondering about the quality. They look like traxstech and cisco but much cheaper.

    Actually I got that on a forum called ''spoonpullers'', should have told you that on the first massage. It covers more the canadian side of lake Ontario. Lots of info from Port Dalhousie west to Hamilton north to Toronto and east to Oshawa. From there to Kingston it gets harder to get a good report.

    Between swivel and wire line I splice 15' of 50 lb big game. I do a mono to wire knot and than attache swivel. Easier to prevent kink on transportation.

    That's the only info I could find, and it's dated 21st of june (Fish are there. 170 - 190 FOW was the best today (west of Port Hope) and fish were down 50' - 65') Good luck.

    Well to get a itroll is not an easy thing when you live in Canada. Most of the distributors sells them only in the US. But manage to get one and it's in the mail...

    I thought about using a medium downrigger rod but I wondered if it would have the power because it's not built for that. Actually I was looking at the GLT 9' M (10-25 lb) for dipsy. Built for dipsy and probably more lite than my coldwaters. Also it's not a big risk at that price.

    Hi all, I have two 9' coldwater pro dipsy rods (wire) and I'm very satisfied. It perform nicely with average to large size lake Ontario fish. But when I fish lake Champlain's landlocked salmon I barely feel the fish. I'm looking for two dipsy rods (braid would be fine) that can handle a slide diver lite bite and be lite enough to feel the fight. What are your thoughts?

    Okuma has a good veriaty of rods for leadcore and boards and also at a very good price.
  14. Crestliner1850
    I have two of these rods and I used them as downrigger rods only. I find them to much light for inline board or heavy lines.

    About a month ago I ordered mine direcly from Navionics web site.

    The main reason why I use the Scotty snubbers is to prevent more break on the cable.

    Finally I'm going with Itroll, thanks again for all the info.
  18. Crestliner1850
    as good as my setup.
  19. Crestliner1850
    On mine I inserted the strongest split ring I could find through the bottom hole. Then inserted the same snap swivel I have on my downriggers. And then the Scotty snubbers with the ball.

    Using braid as backing gets very expensive. Depending on the sizes of your reels you could use 20 lbs big game. That's what I have on all my reels as backing. I only have two reels with braid as backing, my wire rods.
  21. Crestliner1850
    I thank you all for your help.

    Very interesting, did you buy the upgrades for hunt mode and dual motor?

    I'm looking for advise for a throttle control for my honda 9.9. The two I've looked are the ControllKing and the TrollMaster. What are your thoughts? Thanks.

    Recently I bought the Navionics + US - Canada. With the sonarchart its very detailed. The SD card is 16 GB and you can update the area of your choice free for one year.

    I have Traxstech and I'm very satisfied but if I'd start again I thing I would go with Cisco. They have more kinds of rod holders.
