    No there not. Lowrance bought Simrad, or more accurately the company that bought lowrance (I believe it's Navico) also bought simrad but they're not the same. At least not 10 yrs ago buddy. Now couldn't tell you for sure. Hank, L&M marine could probably chime in though as he's installed both on a lot of boats.

    Check out simrad before you make a decision. Ran simrad on my last 2 boats with hydrolic steering and never had a problem. ( about 20 yrs) Did everything I wanted them to do and dependable.

    All I see on your post is black man. Except one picture of a small box of spoons. Maybe it's on my end?

    These are two I run and this place typically has the best price on Scotty accessory's https://sportco.com/search.php?search_query=scotty releases&section=product .

    I've been using Scotty pinch pads since 1994. No reason to try anything else. Large size for salmon and deep lakers small size for shallow water (40 ft or less) spring Browns with light line. Good luck with your decision and if you need anymore details let me know.

    Nice fish.

    Then it would be a landspout.

    Call Hank (L&M Marine) from this site. He will take care of you but he's very busy now.

    Gambler is right as far as the natural reproduction of Browns. They'll spawn when the time comes but there is no significant amount of natural reproduction in the lake. Where he's wrong is the Landlocked Atlantic salmon reproduction goes. NY gets federal money here because the LL'S are a native species, just like the Lakers are. The reproduction rate is low but it's free federal money for the state. Tiger Trout stocking in the lake would be entirely on the state. Ain't going to happen and it shouldn't

    Duplicate post

    Combined with the numbers they would need to create a fishery in the Lake.

    Something unusual going on with my computer. Sorry
  16. spoonfed-1
    Probably because they can't reproduce and it would be a waste of effort and money.

    Any tungsten or tin?
  18. spoonfed-1
    Yup. Still have a spare set of clicker parts. These fit either the 27 or 47 series. Let me know if you have trouble getting them.
  19. spoonfed-1
    Should be. I got mine directly from daiwa but that was a few years ago. Call them. Usually it's the clicker pawl and the clicker spring if the shaft on the button isn't worn. Shouldn't be more that a few bucks so I ordered spares when I got mine. In fact let me check my reel repair box and see if still have them. I remember I sold daiwa parts package to somebody on this site but I don't remember exactly what. If you can take that side cover off and post a picture of the inside that would help.
  20. spoonfed-1
    Yup. Warm water way down deep.

    I ran my fly leaders at 24" from the bottom of the hook to the top of the loop. You can change the action of the fly with your trolling speed. Ice cold water early season I would run my leaders at 21" when a slower trolling speed would produce better. Better snap at slower speeds. It's important to stay consistent with your leader length so when you dial something in all your rigs are basically doing the same thing.
  22. spoonfed-1
    Good call. I've done well with spoons behind a dodger with a 5 ft leader for browns on occasion when their deep, but it's not a consistent producer so It would not be in my spread very often.
  23. spoonfed-1
    Yup. I got a few I don't need anymore. What section of the lake are you talking about?
  24. spoonfed-1
    If you got to stack riggers I always had good luck running flashers and flys off the main line and stacking spoons 10 feet above and 10-15 back of the flashers and flys. Believe me the fish always told me what they preferred. Make adjustments from there. If the fish showed a preference to a certain color whether it be flashers and flys or spoons I would load my spread up with it.

    I went out friday but I bass fished Todd. Next trip will be for trout sometime this week. The weather will determine what day. If you can get one before then no problem. Good luck!!!
