Selling a bunch of homemade flat fish cut outs froma old timer from Seneca lake.. a lake trout killer bought them years ago and the guy said he made a bunch of them in the 60’s.. Great for a hobby or stencils/ patterns not sure what kind of wood asking $75

 

22- 3 3/4 inch 

15- 2 3/4 inch

 Guarantee that old timer had some hours into those blanks. Pretty cool. Very glad everybody knows what lure he was trying to imitate, Just kidding.

i bought the unit in 2018, thanks for the help.

A card at half price won't matter, none of their software will work with the unit, they no longer support the Lowrance Hook 7. They have zero, no software that could possibly work. No cards, nothing.

Bottom line is I have a $700 door stop

Last Lowrance product I will ever buy.

 Friend posted this one up. Help you out?

Found out my Lowrance Hook 7 Triple shot came with a Navionics card that has no overlays in it. Navionics doesn't support the older cards so I have a $700 door stop.

Unless someone has an older card, I would need a Navionics Card MSD/SD US East  , hope to hear from someone with better news than Lowrance or Navionics had.

I'll post this up on my local MA fishing site and see if anybody can help you out. What year is the unit?

New in the box. Paid $699.00 on sale at Cabelas last year and decided it wasn't going to work for what I wanted it for when I started setting it up. Never worn and everything works as it should.

$350.00 shipped to anywhere in the eastern US.

Powered up. Solar charging capabilities give you up to a 20 day battery life according to the manual.

I got scammed badly on 2 fish finders on FB Marketplace. the 1st one didn't have a PP account but found a friend that let him use his but we had to do friends and family. after I paid I never heard from either of them again. the 2nd one didn't have a PP account either. after a few days, he came up with the idea of paying with Zelle through my bank and as soon as he was paid I never heard from him again. So now if it's more than a few bucks I will only pay with PP goods and services.

I've sold about 7 grand in machinist tools on FB market place in the last few months. Four out of five responses are from scamming Aholes. Fortunately I learned that before I got beat.

I am pleased with my Traxstech's.

X2

Although I always preferred my riggers mounted to the gunnels with a backing plate. I could remove my riggers with one bolt when needed and remove the swivel mounts  and riggers with 4 thumbscrews.

Scammers have hijacked peoples accounts on here to beat people. You have to be very careful. Most scammers only have 1 or 2 posts.

I used round cradles and layed the torpedoes in sideways. Tail toward the back and they worked out fine but they were on a flat raised board across the top of the transom. I'll see if I can find a picture.

I've always been happy with Boat US insurance. good rates on my charter business, great coverage and good claim payment. Towing was included in my plan but never used it because Hank, L&M marine was the only guy I let work on my boat.. He found problems before they became problems on my Penn Yan.

I just hope that this will not turn into another political poison post

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.

Yeah, last night I thought condensation because it was milky but the level wasn’t much higher. Today it poured out when I pulled the dipstick after running it over an hour on the lake. It was running fine but wanted to keep an eye on it.  Definitely smells like gas in there.

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

I agree  Change oil and filter before further use. If it happens after another trip or two ( check frequently ) I’d be looking for cracked crankcase or head or blown head gasket 

X2. It ain't condensation.

Thanks for your service.

I was reading here on l o u about the New York State boater safety course some saying it's a good thing somewhere complaining about it. All the knowledge in the world ain't going to help you if you don't use good judgment and Common Sense. I hope everything works out well for the guy with the swamp boat. 

Seems that post disappeared for some reason?

If you go blind , you probably have counterfeit glasses 

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.

I always use Chlorox Clean-Up for something like that. It has bleach in it which will destroy mildew.

X2 for 15 yrs on my Penn Yan upholstery.

Bleach also destroys the threading in the fabric seams ,be careful with chlorox .

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.

Spoonfed- that’s the exact program I started with until my rigger leader snapped on a hit.  Seeing that it got hit 4’ down I put my 1 color out with a spoon instead on an 3rd board and got 2 more off that one.

Thanks for the input guys.  I ran all 3 off of my inshore side yesterday instead of spreading them out and took fish on all of them.  Definitely helps the confidence when I change up a routine  and it works.  

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.

Nice work.
