This is how I got my start Yukon',...... http://www.lakemichiganangler.com/tips/ ... ctions.htm As the others are posting you'll see that there are a lot of sources for fly making components. You can't beat the satisfaction in catching fish on stuff that you make. It gets pretty addictive.

Try this link out. I always had pretty good response when I contacted them..... http://www.raymarine.com/Default.aspx?s ... 3&page=925

Wayne,.......This subject has been kicked around quite a bit last year and this year. Do a search on "autopilot" and you should find some pretty good info on doing exactly what you want to do. most of the stuff is in "This Old Boat" section, but it does show up in other areas.

Chowder,.....just bought this copper reel from lyteline. He said it would really take all the work out of reeling in all that line but he didn't give me any instructions for it. Can you give me a couple tips on setting it up,.......... Thanks

Do a search for Furuno 620 and you'll get a lot of good info. I bought one a couple years ago and have been satisfied with the unit. Has many features & capabilities that should make it as easy or custom as you would want. Book well written to help you through some of the more difficult custom settings. Tech support from the manufacture is second to none. Screen shot of my unit.

I am Z,.....can't you tell?

They are free to my LOU buddies and come in handy to manage extra rods. Just show them a lot of action to keep them inflated and they'll usually go for the day. Let me know how much help you need and were to show up. Just keep in mind that they are on a first come- first served bases. PM me if you want to be a little more discrete .

Sorry Chowder,..... Honey & Sugar are going to be with me up at Long Point. They do have a couple of their friends available if you really need the help ...... ....... ........just let me know and I'll arrange it.

Thanks for showing us your woody. Hope Ray doesn't get any ideas!

We need pictures.

I left my blind anchored up the lake for this weekend. Is this the one you saw? .....if so I'll just drive to Ithaca instead of going up to Union Springs.

...remember this posts? It's only a week old. Happy ending this time..> viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16696

Do a search for this topic. It's been kicked around several times since January. Lots of good Info. Also,for all the nay-sayers out there.....http://www.pressconnects.com/article/20 ... +s+the+law

This post belongs here also>.......... viewtopic.php?f=6&t=16696

.......who said anything about people?

Red first turns brown then black by about 30' and is the first color out of the spectrum under water. http://www.educatedangler.com/index.php ... cle&id=921

I thought that this would be of interest to a lot of you. Hope this helps with some of the confusion. http://www.seaworthy-digital.com/seawor ... friend#pg9

Gill,....I installed one similar to this>......http://www.amazon.com/Drainzit-Oil-Drai ... B000PDN3HY ..........in my old boat and never went thru that drudgery ever again. The hose just slipped out the transom drain hole and drained all the crud from the bottom of the pan every time. If this type of system will work for you, google "oil pan drain hose". Just find the right size that fits your drain plug and will go thru the transom drain hole.

Wow,.....those BJ's really blow ..............some fuses at 28 amps! . .... ..... .... .... One way to get 6, 8 or 10 gauge wire without spending a fortune is to use jumper cables. Look around at the auto parts stores and get a good set with stranded copper wire. The nice part about using them is that the wire is flexible . Just use the appropriate ends to terminate. I used a 8 gauge jumper cable to run power from my battery switch to a power distribution panel that I added to the starboard side of the boat to power my riggers, kicker and other electrical needs on that side. Works great. From there I used goingagain2's tip to the riggers.

A PFD is a absolute must. The air temps may go into the 60's but the water temp is under 40 deg. Be safe & enjoy. Be sure to read this and then watch the video at the bottom of the page before you hook up your boat>....viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16060...

....exactly. Jeff you've got everyone jealous now and it's not about the fish you are catching.

There are a awful lot of fish caught tight to the ball. How about less than 2' behind a dodger or flasher and all the noise they make? I not so sure that the cable music is a detrimet. The cable Hum-m-m-m is probably more irritating to the fishermen than the fish. That's my

Thanks for the reminder. That is one fishing tip that everyone should thoroughly understand.

Although the best in-hull performance would be in a glass boat it will also work as L&M says. This product is available and do-able. http://www.airmartechnology.com/airmar2 ... &PageNo=99 Airmar makes them for Furuno and other sonar mfgs: http://www.hodgesmarine.com/Furuno-520- ... 20-ihd.htm
