Bad Habit

So it’s the same idea as a Michigan stinger “UV”?

What does the “RV” mean? Can’t even find it on their website.

Anyone know where I can get them in the Rochester area?

I like real meat but it gets to be a pain to store and take back and forth to the boat. I was thinking this might be an easier option I might try..

Anyone try these? Interested if they produce like real herring even without the natural scent.

Thanks Bottom feeder but I’m out Irondiquoit bay. I did know about the hi/low button but thought that was only for transmitting. My problem is recieving.

I have a Standard Horizon VHF radio that I can't seem to get decent reception on. When boats around me are getting lots of radio chat I'm not getting anything unless the transmission is VERY close. I've tried isolating the radio on it's own battery, different antenna, noise ferret on the power cord of the radio and a few other things I can't even remember now. I've always left the antenna cord the original length and coiled it up. It's on the same side as the radio. Should I move it? Should it be cut to a shorter length if possible? Is there a certain antenna I should be using to match the radio? I have not tried a noise reducer on the alternator either. Is that an option that might work? I've been chasing this problem for a while now and any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Rick

Heading out tomorrow for the first time in a couple of weeks and was wondering how the fleas are. They were getting thick last outing.

Any pics?

303 Fabric guard is what was recommended to me by John Mann. He made my Sunbrella top and aft cover.

I use Gallagher Charter lakes insurance. I am not a charter. I have never needed to submit a claim but I did get recommendations before I went with them. I have an agreed value so I hope I know what I would get if it was a total loss.

Where are you located?

Well Amazon delivered 2 Okuma high speed Coldwater CW-453DS reels yesterday. They were the linecounters too. Nice surprise because they didn't show a linecounter in the picture or say anything in the description. Good deal for $84. If I had known that I would have ordered 2 more for the diver rods!!

I'm looking for recommendations for what to use as backing for 10 color leadcore. Not sure what brand the leadcore is but I'm spooling it onto a Coldwater CW-453DS. Thanks, Rick

Decided to buy a couple of Okuma CW-453DS. Found them on Amazon for $84. Going to use them on 10 color leadcore so I didn't think I needed line counters. Looking forward to trying them soon.

Thanks for the help.

Probably line counters.

I'm looking to replace my old Daiwa Sealine 47SH's. Any opinions on a good reel with similar capacity? I would like to stick with at least a 5:1 ratio. I like the Saltist but probably more $ than I want to spend for a weekend fisherman.

Thanks for the help. Hank hooked me up and I’m dropping off the canvas this weekend.
