  1. Nice 'eye. We would get a couple each year out of sodus trolling for browns
  2. Was able to get out with dad for a couple hours first thing. Bay and lake were perfectly flat. We set up just off the pier and went west to Maxwell. 1 one a green and yellow stickbait before we where completely set up. Another just as the water started going green before the creek. Both motors ran great. New planer mast and boards worked well. Need some tweeks but they should be easy to do. Overall great first trip
  3. This one is 23 to 38. May be sold to a guy at work
  4. mounts and what seems to be the standard length rod. $150 buyer pays shipping
  5. Ok, got home from work and looked into this. Tried turning the dial and same thing. Pulled the tach and looked closed. Googled what the 60hp merc should be and found it needed to be on 6p. Not 4c. Looks like it's working as it should now. Fingers crossed we will see in the morning. Thanks for the help
  6. Anyone know what max capacity is for these? I can't find a model number. My father in law gave them to me,he never used them. He got them from his father in law. They are installed and worked last year with 10 pound torpedo type weights. More blowback than I would like.
  7. thanks for the info. will give the trollmaster a look
  8. I'll give it a go thank you!
  9. 2011 tracker pro guide 16 wt. 2012 60 HP EFI merc. When the boat is off the tack stays up in the 1500 range. Running sometimes it seems to be right at idle other times it seems to read high. Usually when the throttle is maxed out it's showing well over 7000. I know that's not right. Anyone seen this before and have a solution? Be nice to have it working right. Thanks
  10. My kicker is rigged with remote throttle. I use this in conjunction with my TM to maintain speed and heading. The trouble i run into is the ease the throttle lever gets bumped or just moves while in use and the RPM's move, normally down. I know there are electronic throttle controls systems out there, just wondering if there is any manual twist knob type throttle controls even if it is engine mounted. Thinking like some of the older equipment and tractors had. Seems like this would hold the setting better and possibly be able to fine tune the speed more easily. Thanks

  12. thank you. anyone backing up the knot at the board with a washer to help distribute the weight? may not be needed just curious. also what is the target length of each leg of the rope? thinking the loop needs to be forward of center?
  13. I built a skeg ext for my trolling motor, I lock the kicker straight and just under desired speed. then use the trolling motor to get to target speed and use the speed control to maintain. adjust accordingly for current and wind ext. then just set the heading and the trolling motor does its thing to maintain the speed and heading. seems to work for me. the extra surface area on the skeg of the trolling motor definitely helped maintain the heading better.
  14. Motor that was on a 14' sea nymph, dad had a hard time getting it going so he bought a 9.9 4 stroke. Ran last year. Make an offer
  15. If that does not workout I'll take them
  16. thank you. Ill let you know
  17. Bought some used boats and I need to make new pull point harnesses. Any recommendations for what to use?
  18. Now I follow, both motors would charge all batteries but only draw off the main crank, isolating the trolling batteries from the main on the discharge side. Thank you
  19. I guess my question then is why charge the main motor crank battery also? It will charge while running to the fishing spot. The downriggers pull from there also but that is minimal. I would not be looking to completely charge the TM batteries but keep them from depleting as quickly.
  20. Always have a fully charged jump pack under the helm just in case.
  21. Will it fit a 2011 mercury 9.9 pro kicker?
  22. yes, boat only had 1 battery in the bow when i bought it. added a second for runtime
  23. From what I can tell my kicker is equipped with charging. Currently run this motor fixed straight and run the speed just under the target speed and use my Terrova to steer and fine tune the speed. I have 2 31 size batteries running the trolling motor (12V) Any reason I should not run the cables from the kicker to the trolling batteries?
  24. agreed, i have them for my divers. was curious on the spyderloks for the adjustable tree they have for planers.
