  1. Thanks. I have a message out to him
  2. Thanks. He's backed up until April and I can't wait that long.
  3. I believe I read on this site there was a competent reel repair guy maybe in or around Rochester maybe? Anybody have any experience with them and contact info? Thanks
  4. So the two lakes are not both being treated during the same year during the same time frame?
  5. So if the weather hasn't prevented them from controlling the lamprey on Cayuga, why has the weather been preventing them from controlling them on Seneca? Cayuga was a real mess not that long ago, now they are under control.
  6. Trophy Brown for Cayuga. Taken from shore adds to the accomplishment. Beautiful fish and Congrats to your friend..
  7. Could be an 1101 if it has a 30" X 1 1/4" boom. The dual rod holders could have been added.
  8. Don't get discouraged. Yes a hundred bucks is an expensive lesson and yes there is a learning curve involved with every presentation but wire divers are a deadly presentation. Spooling and running wire is not difficult you just have to know how to do it. Post up your questions here before you attempt something new and in most cases you will receive sound advice that will shorten your learning curve and in some cases save you some money. I run mono divers as well as braid when the conditions dictate and I won't leave the dock without my wires in the boat. Good luck and Happy New Year.
  9. If they are indeed "kinks" you need to replace the wire.
  10. Riggers and rod holders mounted to the plywood. Riggers have a 6X6 3/8 thick aluminum backing plate under the plywood Dipsy rod holders I used SS fender washers as a backing. Rigger booms are extended to 5ft when in use with 12 lb weights. I usually run the riggers 90 deg out to the sides.Everything is plenty strong enough and been there a long time with no issues. Good luck with whatever you decide.
  11. I built a couple pedestals out of aluminum and mounted them to the plywood seat tops where you have your rod holders on my little boat. Will post pictures when I get home
  12. My buddy went 4 for 6 this morning in 5 to 10 fow casting plugs and spoons from his drift boat. The fish are there but it;s a tough bite.. Good luck and post a report when you fish.
  13. I'll take them. will be up in mexico this weekend. You going to be around?
  14. It's that time of year again. The spawning season sales pitch. Same BS every fall.
  15. All my 500 & 600s are LC's. 800's with copper and cores no LC"S
  16. Happy with my Tekotas and I own over 2 dozen between 800's, 600's and 500's. Taken an awful lot of fish on them and no regrets. Good luck with your decision.
  17. Great fish!!! Congratulations.
  18. If you decide to go with scottys I would recommend the older style with the mechanical counters. Pretty much bullet proof. Also the extendable boom and the swivel base gives you all the flexibility you will ever need https://johnssportinggoods.com/product/downriggers/scotty-downriggers/electric-downrigger/scotty-downrigger-1116/ https://johnssportinggoods.com/product/downriggers/scotty-downriggers/electric-downrigger/scotty-downrigger-1106/ Good luck with your decision
  19. I guess looting and burning are not worth mentioning by some.
  20. You will be happy with the cannons. Glad you caught it before you lost anything,
