    They run very much like the Apex 4" & 5" lures from Hot Spot..... more erratic than a spoon, which can be a very good thing on some days...

    Rigging Help

    J.D. replied to Salty Nut's topic in This Old Boat

    Having coffee this morning, thinking about your rigging issue.... Again excuse my lousy drawing skills... Taking flush mount rod holders, either 30 or 45 degrees, whichever matches the angle on the boat better... you could drop gimbal mounts in backwards in the rod holders and mount a trolling board across.. A rod holder like this..... Mounted on your boat something like this, match the angle of the curve... Then drop in gimbal mounts backward, or use a 90 degree gimbal to make the mounting surface level and put a board across the back Maybe a flat 90 degree gimbal mount is better ??

    Rigging Help

    J.D. replied to Salty Nut's topic in This Old Boat

    Excuse my lousy computer artwork...... Perhaps mount 2 sections of track in the RED areas I drew in, you could come up with risers and put a trolling board across the back..... Slide the entire assembly out of the track for pleasure cruising. They make rubber inserts to fit in the empty track... kind of turns it into a step pad... Something like this....

    You are correct. The information I read from Westpoint marina... the channel didn't fill in as much as anticipated. They expect to be done in 2-3 weeks... weather permitting. Lake level at 255.27 as of Friday morning... lets hope it keeps rising...

    Just a heads up.... the launch ramp at Braddocks is closed until the dredging is completed.

    I"ve got a '96- 3 cyl. Merc on a 17 footer.. Got to ask, what diameter and pitch prop are you using?? I've run a 17 pitch and could over rev the motor... buddy of mine tried a 21 pitch and couldn't get the rpms up. Stock for my 90hp. is a 19 pitch. Changing from 3 blade to 4 blade can make a difference too. Just my unprofessional $.02
