    So my wife for my birthday decides she wants to get me an autopilot.... Problem is what's it going to take to switch the steering over.... Usually a friend of mine does all the marine work I can't do... But he is booked.... So now I need to know how much to convert cable to hydraulics..... Any ideas on a ballpark money wise?

    Don't worry about the price.... I ordered a dozen flies.... He told me quote" 12 flies are not on a priority for him".......... Buy some elsewhere is what I can say from my experience...... He says he will send then on a sat.... Then sends them on a weds and says my flies are not important enough..... I'm Not to be a bad guy .... Just my experience through him......

    It's the no contact that bothers me... I work for the post office and know how long it takes if we live in the same state and if he sent them the day that he said he did Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Anyone having issues receiving what they paid for?? I have waited 7 days for my flies and I have sent him pm's and no reply from him.... I asked him what day he sent them... What service he used and a tracking number..... Now there is no contact..... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Got my new spro swivels in the mail today and pulled the copper out to splice in the new swivels and the mono section to put in the release.... I noticed about 4 or 5 kinks in the copper line..... Not knowing much about the integrity of this line if these kinks are about to cause me a problem..... 45 lb blood run.....any advise?

    Yes you are😄😄 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I was a little skeptical of the knots while using copper.... Lots of drag and kings don't play nice a lot of the time..... I'm not worried about it not going through the eyes... Plenty of room there.... Now I have to splice in the mono for the releases.... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    I wouldn't ditch the core.... I always have my ten colors out.... Some days it's all that goes.....just buy more reels and get some coppers too😄😄 Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

    Thanks less.... Right now I have the smaller one... For some reason I thought it was the wrong way to rig it up.... So I figured I would post this and see which way is the best..... I haven't yet got this set up tweeked in yet.... Or yet caught a fish on it yet... I bought one of those okuma pre rigged set up.... Word of advice to others.... Before initial deployment..... Let out everything and reel back in under tension.... You will have a lot more room on your reel and everything will be tight..... Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
