  1. Thank you all. I actually found just what I was looking for on eBay. So appreciate all of your input. Thank you again!!
  2. Hi Guys, Thank you all for your input. I finally just contacted Netcraft today directly. They do have flipper blades but they are red and plastic. Seeing if they have what Sk8man has. Thanks again! Bob
  3. Exactly!!! I will call them today. Thank you!!!!
  4. Thanks for the replies. Checked out both websites but still coming up empty. Not the end of the world. Tight lines! Bob
  5. Hi Gang, I got a question. On some of my old Diamond King spoons, attached to the split ring is a small blade that flickers when trolled. I'm looking to see if anyone has any idea where I might buy these or something similar. I contacted Luhr Jensen and they can't provide/sell them like that. Thanks, Bob
  6. Thank you for everyone's input. Windburn, I think you nailed it and I soo appreciate the time you took to respond. Thanks to all!! Regards, Bob
  7. Hi Gang, You're gonna laugh. I am trying to replace the depth counter on my 35-year-old Cannon Unitroll downrigger. These are SOO manual. Anyhoot, I'm at the point where I unscrewed the handle and took the plate off the other side. Being these are 35 years old and Cannon no longer makes parts for much of this, I'm leary on "just going at it". My question is how do I remove the "axle" from the rigger so I can then get to the depth counter? I'm not sure if I just tap it out or if something else holding it in place. Looking for advice. Much Appreciated, Bob Lyons
  8. Thanks, Guys. I think between the large rains causing washouts and weeds being cut in surrounding bays, we possibly found the answer to the cause of this. I was out last Saturday in the same zone, I was still seeing some but nowhere near the intensity of it when I first encountered it. Hopefully, this is behind us going forward, at least this year!
  9. Hi, Are these still available? Thanks, Bob
  10. Bad Habit, I know a scum line when I see it. There was no cold water meeting warm water. Also, the scum line is usually visual on the surface. This was not that for all the reasons you listed. Hoping this is not our new reality going forward. Bob
  11. Hi Gang, Went fishing yesterday and was in the 60-90 fow range east of the channel. I came across acres and acres of the water column filled with weeds and sticks. I don't recall ever seeing something like this. I wonder if LO has had a repeat of what Canandaigua had. I did manage 4 fish and one hit that really ripped on my leadcore off my outrigger but no one home. Anyhoot, just beware if you are fishing there...avoid it. I've had to pick weeds and sticks etc. off my rigger wires and fishing lines. Unfortunately, there's nothing indicated on the surface depicting you are approaching it until it's too late. One positive, I did see some nice schools of bait. Tight lines, Bob
  12. Hi Guys, Thank you for all the great comments. Totally appreciate the feedback. Regards, Bob
