    Not to hi-jack your thread, but I have the ice shuttles for these two units listed on here as well. Someone could get a nice deal on an ice machine!

    Today, Cyber Monday, those rods and reels are all 20% off at FishUSA. So, it might be the right time to buy!

    I've been running the FishUSA in-line planer rod for about a month now, and it's a great rod. Everyone is impressed with it when they fish it on my boat. I understand it was in testing with a few top Walleye guys for a while until it was perfected. It's the 8'6" Telescopic model - https://www.fishusa.com/product/FishUSA-Trolling-Rods As for reels.....I've always been a Daiwa guy. Sealine or Saltist can't be beat in my opinion.

    If you have a Humminbird 597 up to a 688 this will work for you. You can also use this for a HELIX 5. This will turn your summer fish finder into an ice machine. Battery included, but no charger. Buyer pays shipping if they can't pick it up in Rochester. Only issue with this case is the zipper is not working properly. I'm sure this can be fixed. https://www.humminbird.com/Products/ICE-PTC-UNB2-w-XI-9-20/

    Selling a Humminbird ONIX touch screen CHIRP fish finder/GPS unit. I will include a link below that will describe the units details. Everything comes with this unit including a transducer that was never used. Buyer pays shipping if they can't meet in, or around, Rochester. I do travel a bit, so maybe we can work out delivery. https://www.humminbird.com/Products/ONIX8ci-Combo/

    The best wire to get your divers deep is 7 strand American Fishing Wire (AFW) 30lb camo. It's diameter is a touch above most wire companies 20lb wire. You HAVE to be anal about handling it however. Out of the package it lays nice and straight, but once it's been used a few times it will want to coil (which leads to kinks) if you let the wire get loose. We've compared it to other 30lb wires on a Smart Troll and with other wires you need to let out 25' or more to achieve the same depth. Twili Tips help smooth out the transition where the wire enters/leaves the rod, and eliminates some resistance. Although it's not a must it will make the experience better. Most tolling reels that hold the same amount as a Daiwa Sealine 47 will take 1000' of wire with ease.

    I think South Bay Bait and Tackle was going to get authorized. Might want to check there.

    The stock ducer will show your downrigger balls, and a thru hull will mark you downrigger balls. I run both. The Trojan has an Airmar B45 (B60 is a flush mount model), and my Lund has the MEGA transom mount ducer that came with my HELIX 12. If you buy the HB I can help you with some settings to tweak it for what we do.
  22. Yankee Troller
    Thru Hull ducer is much better when looking for bait while on plane. You have multiple choices with a thru hull from Airmar. There are flush mount options like an Airmar (B60) and options that utilize a faring block like an Airmar (B45). Honestly, with the thru hull flush mount options out there if you're running a fiberglass boat you SHOULD BE running a thru hull. The only cons with a thru hull is understanding the Pythagorean theorem. For example my thru hull is 20' from the back of my boat. So, my downriggers actually show deeper than they really are on my fish finders. Should have never used 5200 for that. Like calk/seal, or 4200 is more than enough. I agree bait shows up at 20mph pretty good, but single fish? I'd like to see screen shots of that. At 20mph bait balls are 1/4 the size (or less) that they are trolling at 2-3mph, so that would hold true for fish. I don't understand how you can see fish at 20mph, but I'd love to learn what you're doing to see this.

    If you ever build another pair for yourself I might be interested in a pair with an extra rod holder.
