  1. I saw your original post but waited to get here before repling. I dont mess with the fishing here but we do like the bar on the Bayfront area! We watch the charter guys come in etc, There is a guy there Fishy Bizness that always gets tons of fish! We were there Saturday so i got the info. If i was going it would be with him. Scruffy looking dude but man he catches fish
  2. Just to add I have 30 degree flush mount too and the adapters too So i have tried it both ways and found that it really doesnt make much difference and you just adjust depth and dipsy setiings It seems to be way less stressful on rods,reel seats, etc with the 30 degree angle too Just an fyi from field testing
  3. What is the name of the outfitter your hunting with in Texas? Thanks
  4. I have not taken a part or worked on the Browning but i have done tons on the Rem 1100's. I think they operate about the same I would double check the "rings" on the slide magazine tube to make sure they didnt get out of order or backwards. The "tube" that they slide on that sometimes while cleaning gets oil or grease on it. That tube is suppose to he clean but no grease or oil, Check for the small holes to that the gas escapes from, if they get dirty, plugged, that will slow that mechanism down too Hope it helps Happy New Year
  5. Thanks for this info, very helpful! I had to revert back to older manual Cannons this year, crank type. Easytrolls i think, they have short like 2' fiber? Booms and came with 8# balls. I cant find any info on running heavier weights, would like to use 10#s. Any idea if those booms would be ok with the 10s Thanks
  6. There have been a couple of small bucks "sniffing" the last few days but it looked more like "How do you like me now" that the big boys are all butchered
  7. I am in the Southern Tier outside of Corning. It appears that the first pass of the rut finished up mid last week. Does and fawns back feeding normal, mornings and evenings. Didnt see any bucks for 3 or 4 days, Sunday night saw two smalls, last night a shooter that i never saw before and have zero pictures of. The bucks were all right at dark. Pretty normal
  8. I am glad i pulled my boat the week before labor day...... And started shooting my bow!
  9. 5 dead smallmouth , small ones 4 to 5 inches, dead in the water this morning off my dock on Seneca. The fish have started to make a pretty good comeback the last couple years, bass were around the dock all summer, some perch too. A few 12 inches or so but mostly small. Saw a few guys catch trout, so some positives. Then this am, dead bass! There have been a few algae blooms, a small one today. Hard for them to come back!
  10. Got offshore aways a few years ago and the waves got nasty, north wind, so headed back downwind and a full spread out. A small boat, 18ish, Carolina Skiff type with a full bimini went passed us headed out. I said to my son, not sure what those guys are thinking. They got just about out of sight and the bimini disappears. Next roller and through the binocs i see the prop and two orange bobbers. We get 911 on the line, do a 360, get the wires and stuff in and make our way to them. Maybe 15 minutes We get the first guy fast, He was capable and maybe 225#s.. the other guy was full blown panic, whiite as a sheet, screaming etc. Took a bit but we got him. Coast guard arived etc. Tried but they wouldnt let us weigh either guy into the derby. Biggest catch in LO for us
  11. I feel your pain, it happened to me twice! Second time just lost the weight, Blacks release and termination gear. New Cannons, bad wire from their supplier. I was told by Cannon that the get bad wire sonetimes, they just replace the wire and i had to send the junk wire back. After the second break i replaced both downriggers with AWF wire someone recommeneded on here and its been fine even with the "speed" and "bouncing" issues. I dont dislike my Cannons, but i dont understand why they dont put the high quality wire on new downriggers.
  12. Thanks for sharing the info!
