Another positive vote for Chinook Divers. I run 2 of those, and 2 slide divers. That keeps me covered year round.

I'll try to help but don't really know what you are asking. You have a fuse panel with a single positive DC input feeding 8 circuits, likely fused appropriately from the factory. If they aren't labeled you can track them down individually by turning on your accessories one at a time and pulling fuses. Likely they are for your different lights, bilge pumps, aerator, accessory, etc. You also have a DC ground bus. If you want to add a bunch on new stuff you should add another fuse panel (Blue Sea) and run wires to the battery of appropriate size. Fuse the positive at the battery terminal. If that isn't what you are looking for reply with questions.

Facebook-- Lake Ontario Trolling Discussion & Reports-- Posted today flat stick,like a 12" ruler,attach male Velcro to side of wood. Rub stick over tight line and fleas will stick to Velcro,then smack stick against something and fleas get flickered. Never tried it ,just relaying what I read.

I will report back I still have 30 lb flea flicker spooled up.. have not heard from anyone how that old school line holds up

I bet Waler 1 is right not covered by the marina , if they haveing porblems at night and not takeing care of it . I hope all boats there pull out, so sorry for the boat owners that had any damage . that is just wrong .

Did it look like this "Environmental Monitoring Module" just outside of Sodus Bay? I hear they are for monitoring a host of things, including water quality.

Nice ride. Saw you out there today. Looking good. Your video format is nice. A couple comments. There are no controls except play and pause. It doesn't say how long the video is. I watched a few minutes earlier today. When I went back, only choice is to start at beginning again. Can't skip ahead, don't know if there was another minute or another hour. Just my 2 cents.

I run both on my aluminum boat. I moved the dragonfly to the bow. But I have the 10" mega chirp, so probably not comparing apples to apples. Dragonfly is ok. Pretty good chirp down image for relatively shallow water. The inability to configure what is displayed on screen drove me crazy. Example, clock is built in but no way to display it. My Helix 10 suits me better, but it was a way more expensive unit.

I forgot shabby. I fixed it sorry for the short term dilemma.

What is meant by "Not to A!!" I'm not familiar with that term.

Depends on the boat layout. I set up my boat for 5, but only have 3 in place. I'm a straight inboard, so I run one straight down the chute, then 1 on each side/back corner. 3 works really well for me. An outboard or I/O may need to be set up differently.

So right now....if I set my rigger at 60....on the fish finder the ball.shows up at 70-75....if I put the probe on that rigger my down speed/depth will show at 70-75 depending on speed and blowback. I always make sure it's set at zero before I put it down. It's a pain but I've gotten used to resetting them. My plan is to buy new riggers by next season. But wanted a temporary fix for this year. I bought new counters and everything.

Take a 5 gallon bucket and wrap a string around it at the bottom of the bucket, then measure it. Then take the string and wrap it around the bucket half way way up the bucket and measure it.
How much difference do you have in the lengths ???? And every revolution it’s getting a little bigger diameter.
The math is probably really close with 80 feet of cable out.

I think we were making the same point. The spool would need to have about a half inch more cable build-up (1" in diameter), which seems like a lot to me.

If 65 spool revs = 65' of cable, then 1 rev = 12", so diameter = 4". If 65 revs = 80', then 1 rev = 15", so diameter = 5" (approximately).

The math doesn't quite make sense to me. You would have to change the diameter a full inch to be off that much. That would be a lot of wire. Cannon advertises 150-400 foot capacity. Are you sure the counter is engaged fully? Does it always return to 0?

I used to go there in november for stream fishing and the owner of the Sodus Point bait shop right at the marina was also the owner of Sodus Point lodge and Log Cabin about 300 meters past the bait shop on Greig st. 

There is no bait shop at Sodus Point. Maybe there was, but no longer. At least as far as I know...

Used these on 3 boats now.  Work great.

That's the one I used on mine. $35 and a couple offset bends and you are in business.

Any chance anyone has 2 of these? Item number 1907024.

Short trip, short report. Headed back out front to our waypoints from Saturday. Fish were still in the 200-225' depth in the top 50'. Finished 10 for 15. 9 kings and 1 laker. No pix today. Best fish was during a triple, so no chance. All fish this year released to be enjoyed again another day. Off the water at 10. It's been a great year for fishing thus far this season. Get out there!
