    Good response.

    Any outboard I've run off muffs didn't flow well. Make sure they fit well and I usually have to turn my water pressure down out of the hose.

    Not sure I would run that motor until you find the problem. Good luck.

    X2. It ain't condensation.

    Thanks for your service.

    Seems that post disappeared for some reason?

    Good assumption.

    I'll be trout fishing on one of my local ponds if the wind isn't cranking. I'm curious as to what, if anything it will do to the trout bite. Got the word out to my bass fishing buddys to see if any of them will be out., Haven't heard anything yet from the bass guys.

    Don't forget your eye protection.

    Fished cable for 25 years. No reason to switch. No apparent benefit to braid unless your fishing more than 200 ft deep and more fleas come flea season.

    X2 for 15 yrs on my Penn Yan upholstery. X2 unless you use it intelligently. The cleaner is not straight bleach but you don't want to soak the stitching with it. I always sprayed it on the rag with a light spray directly on bad spots.

    Glad it worked out for you. To start I always run a shallow rigger behind the boat way back, an Inside board with a stick bait an outside board with a stick bait and make adjustments from there according to what the fish tell me. This is when fishing shallow with the boat in 6 to 20 fow.

    Getting it done.

    Main line to the diver.I never liked mono to the diver as it was a **** to trip it. Always ran something that doesn't stretch.65 lb braid or wire. I always ran a fluorocarbon 20 lb test leader from diver to spoons and 40 lb Ande from diver to flashers and flies and never exceeded 8 ft or so in length so I didn't have to hand line fish into the net

    X2 8 ft long at the most. Unless you want to hand line fish into the net.

    I see. Thanks for the clarification.

    Interesting conversation regarding snubbers. Never ran a snubber on my riggers and never lost a weight because of it. I must just be lucky. Thats after 25 yrs of aggressive fishing.

    Thanks guys. If the WD silicone doesn't hold up I'll give it a shot.

    White lithium grease is petroleum base. Not recommended for rubber or plastic as it will cause premature break down.

    X2. What you might want to consider is you want to run the same weights on all your riggers. I always ran 4 or at least had 4 riggers mounted and preferred the torpedo weights from the old Atomic mold. Always ran true, very little blow back and 1/2 the price of sharks. Sharks are the best if you don't mind paying the price. Different blow back and shaped weights will result in problems.

    I always ran Shimano Taloras for salmon. The medium weight would land any salmon in the lake. Plenty of backbone and still enjoy the battle. The Talora roller guide rods for wire were a bit stiff but not horrible. Okumas were a much lighter action rod and the same rating between the Taloras and Okuma Blue diamonds was considerable. Good luck.

    You talking for salmon or trout and what brand of rod are you talking about? Also are you talking roller guides or regular guides with a twili tip? These variables make a big difference.

    Well I'm guessing we will see how long it lasts as mentioned in my post. If I got to spray um 2 or 3 times a season thats Ok. 2 or 3 launches and I'm guessing I will look for something else. What do you think? Any better suggestions?
