    if you still have this and you'll let me pay with PayPal I will buy it and add an extra 5.00 to cover PP fees and shipping. please message me and tell me something.

    I started to buy one of these a couple of years ago as I thought it was the only way to troll with a kicker. I still feel a kicker AP would be a dream come true for anyone who uses a kicker for trolling if they have enough money for it. I am not engineer minded and getting it to work on my 2000 Merc 9.9 four stroke might be too much for me. make sure it will work on your motor or if you think you can engineer something so it will work. too much of an investment for something I may never get to work on my motor.

    I bought 4 of them and 1 wouldn't crank. I contacted them and sent it in and they took care of me. What I do a lot of the time at Amazon is see if they have used one. when I get them they are always brand new or I can't tell they are used. usually, the packaging is damaged but not the item. it's a great way to save money.

    dropped off the check in the drop box at the post office last night. should be on its way. looking forward to getting the weights.

    if I don't get sidetracked it will be in the mail shortly. my wife did the check earlier and I'm getting ready to address the envelope now.

    do you know if it would work on an 89 350 Mercruiser v8?
  8. sherman brown
    it won't work on my old 2000 Merc 9.9 4 stroke as I believe a 2005 is as far back for it to work.

    I sent my address in a PM and included my email and PayPal info. you can mark these sold unless I die, LOL. but at 73 you never know.

    I'm not sure what you mean about wet manifolds. but I'm not up on everything, I thought all small block Mercruiser manifolds were wet. but all mine were older motors. for information try Google for reviews for those manifolds. you might try checking on eBay for that brand manifold and see if they have any reviews plus you can get prices if they are listed. the only manifolds I ever had to replace I just did a search for 350 Mercruiser exhaust manifolds. I found a set of new ones at the right price and after 16 years are still on my motor.

    how do you want paid? I can pay friends and family or I can mail a check. but I do want to get 2 10# dredge weights. these are by far the best weights I have ever used. I was using 12# pancake weights but forgot them one trip. found 2 8# dredge weights on the new tous boat and started using them. To my amazement, they had less blowback than the 12# pancake weights. now I want to try a set of 10 # weights but still go lighter than the 12# or 13# pancake weights I had been using. message sent.

    Compared to the prices I found on Amazon and eBay it's priced better than what I found, except Amazon has one with a trolling motor transducer for 449.00 then add 200.00 for a good transducer, and it's as much but it won't be helping out a fellow fisherman. he may even come down a little but he'll never sell it for the lowball offers.

    if the cannon tracks are still available and you're willing to ship at my expense I want them. I can pay with PayPal or mail a check.
  14. sherman brown
    I might be interested in 2 of your 10# dredge weights if they are indeed dredge weights. what is your price for 2 weights and the shipping cost?
  15. sherman brown
    I have one of those boxes that someone can have but it's going to cost 30+ dollars for shipping. I live in Muncie IN so pickup is optional. I only used it a short time about 30 years ago and it's just been sitting in the pole barn. not sure if it's still strong but it should be good to go. and a huge KUDO to the OP. I have gave a few things to guys just starting out. my old marine radio, a couple of fish finders. but it's always came back to me in a big way.

    at 2.50 each anyone wanting magnum spoons should jump on this offer.

    when I started walleye fishing the central basin of Erie line counters were a must. my budget at the time was very little. i started with the Magda Pros but never liked them but I did catch fish with them. As soon as I could I upgraded to the Daiwa sealine sg17lca and the Accudepth plus 17lc reels that I bought used off eBay and they served me great for 15+ years. the accudepth was still working but I got a great deal on the sg17lc3b and upgraded. a few years later a couple of the sg17lca reels failed so I upgraded the Okume Coldwater 203 reels. these reel sizes are for walleye fishing. I run 3 divers on each side and to keep inexperienced people from letting out the wrong rod on the wrong side I like using the sg17lc3b reels on one side and the Coldwater's on the other side, and always get the rods set out on the right side. you don't have to buy all new reels at the same time, you can buy at your own pace 1 or 2 at a time when you find a good sale or good price. Convectors, Accudepth Plus, are both good mid grade reels. but the sglc3b reels are even better. so far I love the Coldwater reels they are as smooth as a baby's butt. but I haven't used them a lot so I can't say how good they are.

    with priority mail shipping isn't much of a problem. just fit them into a small box actually you can get a box at the post office that's already priced for shipping they have different size boxes so just get the smallest box you can fit them in. The price for shipping doesn't change from the listed price as long as it weighs under 70# you can just stop by any post office and get the price and take the box with you so you can place the weights in and take back to any post office to ship. you would be doing me a plus if you would ship them to me.

    I want the fish shaped weights. I need them shipped in as small of a box they will fit in then ship them priority mail. that way they don't charge by weight but the size of the package. let me know what shipping will cost and I can pay the total plus an extra 5.00 for fees with PayPal. you can message me your PayPal info.

    I have never had a way to know my lure speed I have always used boat speed and have caught my share of salmon out of Lake Michigan, and walleye out of Erie. if I'm marking fish but not getting hits I adjust my speed.

    first, decide if you want new or rebuilt. you can choose to change out the block. then go to michiganmotorz.com and you can check all your options. They carry short blocks without heads, long blocks with heads, plus complete motors new and rebuilt. just to switch to a mpi motor I recommend checking them out.

    our hottest Erie walleye spoon for us has been the dw purple alewife spoon. Dreamweaver dw spoons catch fish period.
  23. sherman brown
    you might want to switch to medium to large spoons and run them around 2.8 to 3.3. the best one I've found is the Dreamweaver dw purple alewife but many other spoons will work.

    all the tracks are the same size any rod holders like Traxstech, Cannon, bert's all fit either track. I use Cisco tracks with my Cannon rod holders. try googling it on any track.

    I have been using them for 30+ years and never calibrated 1 yet. I just spool the same amount of line on each reel getting them close to full. I use the counter to get me back to the same spot I want to fish. if I let out 150' of line and get a fish I want my lure back as close to that spot as I can get, I have found with some line counters it's best to zero them each time before letting out line. many times my counters were on a half number and did not work, so I wouldn't know how much line was out. but now I try to remember to just reset my counter making sure it's on all zeros.
