Thanks... I just remember that I've got an PO Box in NJ, and a shipping company will help me from there, so the company just need to ship within the US. Price for a pair of DF300EFI was less than ONE single outboard here. In Norway we have taxes.... If i buy a outboard from abroad the customs will calculate tax as this 1.$25.3XEACH HP 2. HP TAX+25% 3.(HP TAX and 25%)+Outboardprice abroad 4.Sum of nr 3X25% 5.Total price Let me take a Suki 300HP from Eds as an example 1. $25.3X300=$7590 2. $7590X25%=$9487.5 3. $9487+$17750=$27237,5 4. $27237.5X25%=$34046,875 5. Total price $34046,875 It's cheap in Norway... tax bastards

Hi me and my fishing buddy are looking for new outboards to our boats. Yamaha and Suzuki. 175-350HP, where in the US can we find the chepest outboards? And will they ship abroad? Recomanded cheap stores are very welcome, please come with recomandations. And I'm sorry for my bad english

I've done this and then it takes three days and the norwegian importer call or send a mail where they say: We have the exclusive rights to apex in Norway, we can order the color for you but you have to wait until april... When I want to buy lures I want it NOW... not in april

Hi. I've been searching for a store in the US or Canada who have a huge amout of different apex colors 5.5". 416 Blue red mist 419 Oil can 470 Mother of pearl caramel 301 Black sparkle If anyone can give me a tips I'll be a very happy lad

Thank you anyway, but it didn't looke like they got that color. I don't even know if it sold in the US. I've got mine back in the 90's

could you give me a link to that 2 for 3 sale? Didn't found it

I don't remember the color code for the ONE lure im looking for, but if you check out the link you'll se the pattern on a different lure. So if anyone have one or 5 of this I'm VERY intr in buying some and I'll give you a nice price. if you have or knowing someone having this please send me an email. [email protected]

Weston Gear Electric Chum Grinder is the closest i've found. Your tip would have been great Ray, if I don't so much alone. Bait cutter

Hi. We fish a bit with baitfish, and are looking for a device who cut and spit baitfish in the water to make a path of stench in the water to attract fish. A device who spit out cuted baitfish in intervals. Anyone of you knowing a such device?

I'm a "prylbøg" as we say over here (it means buying everything) so I sent a mail to them and get confirmed that my riggs could handle this, so some Mega Sharks are gonna be shipped over the atlantic soon to. Do you recomand to use ordinary rigg wire, or should I change to my Scotty Braided Downrigger Line?

20lb... Starting to sounds great, even if I never fish deeper than 170 feet. Hmmm will my Scotty 1116 handle this weight, it around 9kg. It takes 7kg easy so maybe I should try the cannonballs even if I've one time swear of never using them

My upset when fishing in the Baltic Sea (Denmark) is 10 rods who is allowed at the competision. 6 rods at the downrigger, 2 rods with small boards (yellow bird type, but with a little keel) who's attatched to the line in same way as dipsys, and 2 rods with slidediver or DD. If I use a slidediver can I get this around 50 feet on each side of the boat and around 15-20 feets deep? Or do I have to adjust a Dipsy to do this? When we tried DD last time we get it a quite distance from the boat at level 5, but we wasn't sure on the deepth of the lure. Our speed when trolling down there is around 2.5knots, down to 2knots if the waters is cold.

Thank you lads! My reels are Tekota 600LC, maybe I should buy one more with 30lb line to the dipsy. I only use the DD in Baltic Sea, Danish territory because of they don't allowed planerboards. So my goal is not to get deep, my goal is to let the lure goes out from the boat and in around 20 feets deep. I see in the link you gave me J.D. that Luhr Jensen have a new Mini Dipsy. It sound perfect for the trolling in the Danish Part of the Baltic Sea, both get the lure away from the boat and down to 20 feets The onlu question I have about the Mini Dipsy is: Can it handle the NK mag spoons? You have a weight system who is totaly unknown to me... oz.... Here we use gram and kilo. A mag weight 18,5 gram. If I've calculated right. 1 oz=29,7G. 5/8=0,625 0,625*29,7=18 So can the mini dipsy handle this? Anyone who knows a store who have both the Mini Dipsy and Gamakatsu hooks? So I can conclude with... The way I've runned my dipsys are not totaly wrong, and I use mono line, Berkley Big Game. Don't want to have to thick line since In my point of view it's more important the length of the line on the reel than the thicknes. I thnk its better with 1200 feets of 0.38mm than 800 of 0.45mm. The averance size of the Baltic Sea salmon caught on trolling is around 10-15kg (22-34lb), but you can get in touch with salmon around 20kg (44lb) or if you're extremly lucky 25-28kg (55-62lb) Last may in Namsfjorden, Mid Norway they caught an Atlantic salmon on 30kg (67lb) and in Altafjord, Northern Norway a salmon was caught in a net 37kg (81,5lb) The 67lb and 55lb on the pic are caught in a sientic project and later released to the sea. I guess both were heading for River Namsen Next late may I'll be there with my boat and some Mini Dipsys

Hi. I altso think the new series from Lowrance sounds exciting, but I will not baught them as pure fish finder since I'm convinced they can't match my Furuno. Best fishfinder I've ever had. And I have the small 620 with an airmar 50/200 transducer. I altso have a lot of hours with the Ray E120 with the DSM300 module since my best friend have this one, and to be honest, it's a great machine but I don't find it "up there" with the Furuno even if the screen is more than twice the size. A bit of topic, but the radar release picture from Lowrance on they're HDS serie.... WOW Maybe I'm incompetent to discuss fishfinder since I'm sponsed by Furuno on fishfinders, but if Belanor (Raymarines agent in Norway) had offer me the Ray E serie I would have refused based on my experience (and a lot of others) with the Furuno fishfinder. Before I got the 620 ( I choose this in favour of 585 because of the size on my boat) I run Lowrance for 14 years.

Maybe this icefishing game from Finland could be fun? It's all in english and you can download it here http://www.kalassa.net/propilkki2/lataus2.php It may after setup be in the finnish language and that is TOTALY impossible to understand, to change to english language: Go to asetukset and choose enlanti. Then you'll get english text. NB: You can play network games to. http://www.propilkki.no it's a norwegian site, but they have a forum for non norwegian speakers Thight lines folks

Im using my ordinary trolling line 0.38 (18lb). Then you tie the DD in the same way as I do. From the rod to the dipsy, but you use an snubber as a part of the leader for preventing the hooks to be dragged out of the fish mouth then? I have to read some more fishing teqnical english so I understand everything you wrote. Back here we seldom use the DD, downriggers and planerboard are common in Scandinavia. But in Denmark after the Baltic Sea Salmon we cant use planerboard so therefor we use small rod paravans and DD (at shallowest level). Smaller rubber to the DD than to the downriggers and planerboard I se... Hmmm but I understod it now. And i se you use wire as line for your DD fishing, the idea here is to get it deeper then? Are you caughting more fish on DD than on downriggers, and what do you guys think is the adventage of the DD versus the Downriggers? Sorry for asking so many questions... Maybe I should visit Icelandair and book a ticket to the Great Lakes to se in action how you use this equipment. Insted of bother you with prime knowledge questions..

Now you can read my blog in english, thanks to google translation. The translation isn't 100% perfect, but I guess it's better with bad english than norwegian for you over there

I've been using Dispy Divers sometime without any sucess, and when you speak about snubbers and so on... My english knowledge isn't good enough to understand what you mean. My way to use DD is attach the DD to the line from my reel and attach an rodlength of leader line from the DD to the bait. Do you use the DD as a planerboard with a own reel and attatch an releaser to the leader from the DD to the bait so you can fight the fish directly on the rod without the resistance from the DD? If someone youd publish a picture and description for a Norwegian dummy I would been very thankful

I can place 4 riggs on my boat, so I've got space for both. The Scotty rigs will be at the boat until I buy new scotty's Spoke to some finnish and norwegian trollers who have used the StrikeVision system, and they both recomand the black/white type, because the brightnes there was better than the color cam. You guys can be glad you live in the US, the prices on equipment here is horrible high...

I've altso told that you need a walker downrigger. So I have to buy one IF I want the StrikeVision system on my boat. But I'm very intr in hearing your experience with it. Color vs black white. Walker vs Scotty and so on

Anyone who have experience with the strike vision system?

Maybe wrong place to post this q, but I'm looking for underwater cam I can attatch to my downrigger. What kind of cam do you recomand? It must be easy to use since I'm an dummy OF FIRST CLASS. I've got two Scotty 1116 Downriggers, and I use em down to 140 feet

I've spoken to some friends over here and they're Daiwamaniacs, so I think I'll go for the heartland 8.6 rods. Since my others are 8.6 I prefeer them before the Uglystick, and the Heartland is much cheaper. Biggest fish we can catch on our trolling is Hallibuts around 100kgs, but I can altso win in the big lottery. Common size on the fish we get here is from 2-10kgs and in that area the Heartland will fit. But I gonna test the Pinnacle Power Tip next week. If I like em, I gonna bring em in since I then can buy it here in Norway and don't have to wait for post from the US... The pinnacle rod cost 399NOK here ($58.72)

This is a pic of an fishing friend. Atlantic Salmon, biggest fish on pic 10 kg. Salmon from Lake Vänern 3.4kg Brown Trout from Lake Mjøsa, 6,25kg The bait we use after Salmon in the saltwater is NK, Grizzly, Abu Toby and Apex 5.5-6.25" In Lake Vänern we use apex 5.5", Tomic 4" and 5", Strike Pro 10.5cm, Yo Zuri and Bomber Long A As I wrote in first post, we don`t got the real big once yet

Hi I'm an norwegian troller. Been fishing trout and salmon since the 90ties. Write terrible english but hope you understand some of it. Have an Beason 25 WA Special with 225HP Suzuki all equipments for trolling except radar. Fish mostly in the Norwegian lake Mjøsa, Swedish lake Vänern, Baltic Sea and Namsfjorden. Not caught any BIG fish yet, but hope I'll be so lucky to catch one soon. Thank god that you have nice prizes over here so I don't have to rob banks to afford to buy some new gear and pick up some tips
