The answer...... at least my answer: "Has Been" was the closest . They are Mac Jac releases. As near as I can remember we used these in Michigan before we had salmon in Ontario. Some of the guys used them in the Finger Lakes also. These were used as the downrigger release. We didn't usually stack them but, they were attached by the clip to the downrigger wire. The doughnut was trapped on your main line, sliding between the rod tip and the swivel. You held on to the doughnut and slid the line through it until you had the lure back as many "pulls" as you wanted it. You then twisted the doughnut several turns to prevent it from sliding and forced it into the "U" of the clip When a fish hit, the doughnut pulled from the "U" and you had "fish on". The other thing I remember about that Lake Michigan fishing during the "American Salmon Derby" each early fall, was that we only used two kinds of lures. We either used #4 J-Plugs (lime green or silver) or silver Miller #06's (plain or hammered). The releases were likely used in a somewhat different configuration on Yellow Birds as some have suggested. Things have changed a little!!! Dick

Just cleaning out some old tackle boxes and came across these. Don't know if the "youngsters" know what they are. You're only allowed to answer if you are new to this game in the last 25 years!

Sold pending payment.

These two Roberts/Attwood rod holders are lightly used and in nice condition. Mounting sockets are included. No other hardware is included. Price is $15.00 total for the pair. Pick up in Walworth, NY, or pay $10.00 shipping.

Sixteen Storm Thundersticks & Jr. Thundersticks. All are unused in their original packaging. The bottom row (6) are the older style originals. The remainder (10) are the newer style. All are 3.5" long. Price is $45 for the lot. Pick up in Walworth, NY or I can ship in a USPS medium flat rate box for $10.50. PM me if interested. Thanks, Dick

SOLD pending payment.

I'm no expert but it appears that RV (pink) antifreeze is much less toxic to animals than the older radiator stuff. Our experience has been with the RV pink stuff. Here is some info I found on the subject: http://www.arkanimals.com/propylene-glycol-anti-freeze-pet-safety

These are mostly new in the packages. A few have been lightly used. There are 2 lots. Each lot is priced at $25. Each lot contains (7) lures which includes (3) 4 3/8", (3) 3 5/8", & (1) 5 1/4". They can be picked up in Walworth, NY or I can ship. Shipping would be $10 for each lot because it takes 2 small flat rate boxes to fit the 7 lures with their packages. If someone wants both lots, the total shipping would be $10.50 in a medium flat rate box. PM me if interested. Thanks. Lot #1 Lot #2

Works great! Here is a video:

Mount one on each gunnel and get the nets out of the way but always within reach. These net holders( could also be used for rod holders) are new and unused. I removed the protective wrap from one for the pictures. I got these last year when I was outfitting my boat but, I don't need them with my arch/rod rack system. They are made by Great Lakes Planers and are heavy duty welded aluminum. I used a set similar to these on my last boat and they worked perfectly. They are 16.5' high with a 4.25" X 5.0" base. The ID inside the cap is 1.5". They are plenty tall and could easily be shortened, if desired, by removing the cap, cutting to size, and replacing the cap. ***** NEW PRICE=$55 Total ***** Pick up in Walworth, NY Please PM me if interested.

As we start thinking about the early season tournaments out of Wilson (WHI) and St. Catharines (KOTL) I am wondering what others plan with regard to the issues raised last year concerning entering Canadian waters. Since both of these tournaments have not restricted the place you fish on Lake Ontario, boarder crossing can occur multiple times a day. Just thought it would be good to hear what people plan to do, and what is the right way to comply.

Have a good one Jim!

Got a Lead Sled for Christmas. Now I'm looking for 100# of lead shot for the weight bags. Size of shot doesn't matter. Any ideas on how to accomplish this cheaply? Dick

Ran the same on my 24' Lund hardtop......... worked fine!

Take a look at the dual axis Cannons also. Had them for this last season and I like 'em.
