  1. Bob I hope you are doing better I just got back from maine where my Dad just had a massive Heart attack and have been living in and out of a hospital for 2 weeks Havn't been around to go on line hope your doing better and your out fishing and kicking butt get well soon
  2. Do you have any pictures with out the blow up dolls in it Oh sorry It you All kidding aside this is a great boat for some one. John takes good care of his stuff. Boat was well taken care of and has had a lot of salmon come over the back of the boat Nice boat for some one up grading.
  3. Spike Tom (A-tom-mik) would be were I would go he will set you up with everything you need.
  4. Spike You could also run 4 dipsey 2 on each side 1 at a 2 1/2 setting and then the other 1 at 1 to 1/2 settings and then the 2 riggers I believe you have a Lund like mine(96 inch beam) If I would have had 2 more wire rods this spring at the bar I would have run this setup. My buddy does this all of the time it should give you a wide enough spread so you shouldn't tangle(unless you cut a corner to tight).That is going to be my goal this winter is getting 2 more wire set ups.Just my 2 cents
  5. It's still in the works as far as I know but it will take a couple of seasons to go into affect if it passes. This is what I understand But at my age It's could be wrong
  6. They are little critters that have tails that they use to wrap around your line and are a real pain in the butt you can have them get so bad that they go up your line1 to 3 feet if you don't use the right line forget braid they love that stuff.They also love the heat they come on strong when it gets hot but usually gone by september (not all gone but manageable).they came from big ocean vessels rinsing out there bilge's and tanks from the salt water and the fleas had No problems adapting to fresh water.the same way the zebra mussel and Gobi's came from.They have fishing line that is called flea flicker in 20 lb and 30 lb and it does a good job keeping them off but they can still hang on a little bit I use Andie pink 30 lb line and it works enough so you can fish.If you do a search you might find some other articles on this subject.I'm pretty sure there is a better way to explain them to you but this is the best I can do.They are mostly in Lake O and I think I heard that they might be in the finger lakes also but I'm not 100% sure
  7. No not at all. You can run mono but you get a lot of stretch from mono.you can use braided line which some people do use but when the fleas are bad forget it.if you want to get deep wire is the way to go. Some days that is all that is taking hits some days it's the riggers. try a set up and see if it's what you want.Just my opinion
  8. Dave I use a control king I put on this year and it works great you can control the throttle very easy and It was easy to install here is the link http://www.controllking.com/
  9. John ARE YOU TALKING TO ME Be carefull I can get a rooster that will swoon away your Bird in a halter top then you 3 will be back to trolling the Sheep pens but in Bob's and Dave case Goat pens
  10. Homing bird huh Wait until Johnny reads this one Now the question is who this bird belongs too Johnny boy I have 3 choices is it BOB or DAVE or is it yours JOHN!!!no wonder you guys were asking me about my daughters barbie cloths And you laughed about Johnny's Chickens
  11. John are you sure it was just peanuts the bird was eating??? it looks like it's trying to say DAVE Boat looks great
  12. Give Hank (L&M a call) Herd he does great work
  13. I was wondering what was the best softwear to buy so I can upgrade my computer to the latest stuff.I'm no expert so something an old man like me could use out of the box with out having to ask 5000 questions(I will any ways but this sonunds better to me )would be good. Any info would be great Thanks in advance
  14. I have the Lowrance 5200 external GPS antena and it's under $500 and if you have any map chips they should work in the new unit. here is the unit for $411.00 free shipping from BOE http://www.boemarine.com/Products/123-37/Default.aspx
  15. Tim did you get your boat back from Jimmy yet? Nice set up you have. I took advantage of the no ethanol and filled up before I left I only paid $2.39 not sure if it went up but a good deal for on the water gas
  16. I use Camp dry Get it from walmart. Make sure you test an area first to see if it will not change the color or something like that
  17. Welcome aboard best site in Town
  18. Thanks for the info. Nice fish to start off the Loc Good luck the rest of the derby
  19. I have a external I didn't like the internal one if the GPS mod fails just get a new one if it's internal you have to send in the whole unit
  20. I feel the best wave report is to be standing at the boat ramp looking out.I come from MANY miles away to find that the report was calling for waves 1 foot or less to 3 to 5 footer out on the lake. Call up the local Tackle shops and see what they say.Also the weather reports have a 50/50 chance of being right. This is just my 25+ years of coming to Lake O talking But if I had to choose it would be this one for inshore http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/foreca ... loz044.txt And this one for off shore beyound 5 miles http://www.crh.noaa.gov/product.php?sit ... glossary=0
