  1. if your going to retap threads coat tap in bearing grease the grease will catch all your aluminum chips and a shop vac wont hurt to help catch small chips
  2. they make 2 different power cords pending if it was built during pandemic check which way your plug is some have power probes sticking out and some are in
  3. Thats funny they would say that because in Texas they have a program called sharedlunker 13plus. if you catch a bass over 13 lbs and loan it to them during the spawn jan thru march for our selective breeding program you are a legacy member the reason is to make more big bass .Texas knows this n.y can't seem to grasp that concept.It is truly sad.
  4. Maybe select larger fish at the hatchery and take some salmon at different months years ago week caught salmon in november in front of salmon river, Don't take all the small kings that run early,
  5. like I said just wondering because lures change color as they get deeper in the water column. red turns grey and barely visible white stays white and highly visible as does glow spoons. that why we use glow and alot of white back spoons for trolling. black is greyish say at 80ft or deeper. i have black sharks now. was going to powder coat white for this season at see what happens.
  6. Just wondering if the color would make a big difference in the amount of fish caught . is chrome better than black or is glow better or it doesn't matter at all.

  16. try replacing switch last year mine did the opposite and i lost a shark bought 2 new switches all good this year so far
  17. try a heat gun on low setting for a few seconds.It really helps on tight bends
  18. I started fishing the lake in 1982. i booked a charter with lloyd perkins out of mexico. boat name perky. He told me then there is enough fish for everyone. after 2 trips with him I purchased a boat and been fishing ever since. The only difference is how. Back then 17lb line was standard 10lb ball worked fine . now lake is much clearer way more current goby minnows. I think fish were bigger back then because fish used to stock were bigger at the hatchery.you could look in the town pool on the salmon river in september and see 35 to 40lb kings now you see 18 to 25lb fish. they are stocking a different king then what we used to catch.I think those days are gone for good.
  19. There are always a few big kings to be caught look at the 48in 37pounder caught of wilson this year. Alot of water to find 1 big king and then have him grab your offering.lol Last year I spoke to a charter captain on the little salmon river. I asked him why no big kings of yesteryear his answer was the Charter captains meet with the DEC and were asked if they wanted more fish or bigger fish and all said more fish. I get that thats how they make a living .happy clients repeat customers its numbers not size.
  20. My dad at 86 decided he had enough rowing and decide to sell his lure collection. He has around 70 flutter spoons all in good shape. 44s 32s 71s 39s 36s 33s 88s 35s 38s 31s and 175 dr spoons and 165. not looking to get rich I have my own collection looking for $125 AND ILL SHIP FOR FREE .WILL SEND PIC Darren 845-399-4749 thank
  21. Maybe if our DEC would tag some salmon like they did lake trout they would have a better idea of what ages are going up river. The lake trout will be the new big fish of the lake
  22. I'v always been told the salmon spawn after 4yrs and die.So if a 2 or 3yr old fish go up river do they die also or go back to the lake. you would think the eggs in younger salmon aren't matured enough to hatch they still need that extra time. If any large numbers of young fish spawn and die you would think you would have a poor catch rate the following years
  23. I spoke to a charter captain out of the little salmon river a couple of weeks ago why aren't we catching the big kings 35 plus pounds any more. He told me the charter captains meant with the DEC on this matter and was asked if they wanted more fish or bigger fish. He said all replied more which I get.Its how they make a living. they want clients to catch there limit of salmon. They want them to rebook. Me personally i fish for enjoyment I would rathger catch 1big king of yester year than 5 15lbers. lets see what size fish wins sonnys big fish this weekend. good luck to all who entered.
  24. try moving batteries other side of kicker
