YKnot ............nice site! ... Thanks!

Nice ........... Thanks for sharing! Dave

Bill, Thanks for the info/link Guys, Thanks for all other comments/info. This line will be in the water tomorrow .... hopefully there will tales to tell!!!

OK ...... Been looking to see if a thread exists on this and just can't find it so I'm asking ...... I fish the fingers most of the time but would like to go to Ontario occasionally. I've got my 7 strand wire from Atomik (1000 ft). If backer is used ....What is the preferred (Looks like a total of 900 ft. needed for Ontario ...wire/backing combined) ? What is the right method of tying the backer to the wire? ..... tie the wire directly to the Dipsy? (knots .... swivel?) I have read on here what happens from the dipsy to the lure/fly/whatever.

Bill, I don't blame you. You pay good money to have things shipped. I just received an order from Stamina last Friday. I placed the order 6/27. Same thing ...coated cable. I had purchased a sub-troll and wanted the better cable for the install prior to the Red Cross derby. Figured there was plenty of time for it to arrive. I never imagined it would take that long. After reading your comments I checked the ship detail on-line. Now I never asked for special handling but, USPS data shows the order never filled until 7/09. Now maybe they had no stock when I ordered back on 6/27 (nothing told me it was backordered though) yet doesn't it arrive two days after it left the point of shipment ..... and doesn't it show up in the afternoon of the day we had decided to install the cable that came with the unit that morning ....day before the derby! Thanks for sharing the owners attitude. I have no patience for people in a service type business that act as you described.

Thanks ....I ran down to the boat and put one on .......Think I'm good to go

Thanks for the reply.... does the release tension adjustment screw point up or down? Open the release by lifting the bottom metal loop up, the plastic screw there is your release tension adjustment. I double the line and put in the opening of the hinge near the top then lock it down and put the rest of the doubled line thru the bottom clip. Sorry if that is clear as mud but they are pretty nice stacking releases once you get use to them.

I just got a couple of Roemer releases off EBay. They arrived without the original packaging so I have no idea how to use them. I've searched here on the site but, to this point, have not found anything that tells/shows how they work. It does appear that from all the hits I got when I searched that these are a very popular release. I'm running blacks at the ball and would like to use these to stack. They have come with the metal clips. Would certainly appreciate someone steering me to an existing post on the how to's of these devices or taking the time to explain. What attaches to the rigger cable? How does the rod line go in? How about adjusting? Thanks!!!!

I'm not familiar with them ..... Are these only used for Walleyes?

Haven't seen this posted so I thought I'd add it. I just received my Sub Troll this week. As I was looking through the paperwork that came in the box I noticed a sheet that offers a klincher just as the one pictured here. Their $7.35

What are you asking for the two marlins?

Maniac ...... you make a real good point and if you've been using the 150 and taking the time to switch it around and then change it .....that's sounds good to me. So now the only question is clear or black coating?

I've caught a number of lakers on Seneca this year running things behind cowbells.

Not sure where your located. If your willing to ship these though and we can get an approximate idea on what that would cost I will make you an offer. I'm on the east side of Seneca Lake.

Thanks Guys ...... here's the thing. Don't most riggers run 200#? I see 210# on the site Maniac sent. Thanks for the input

Just got a Subtroll and the cable they supply with it looks a bit wimpy. Can I get coated cable that is a bit heavier/better?

Think you'll find what your looking for at the bottom of this page: http://www.redcrosselmira.org/fishing/

Thanks ..... I have a couple cannons myself ... I was under the impression the Big Jon's are the way to go.

Anyone had experience with this brand of Downrigger? I'm interested in upgrading my downriggers .... their old and one is starting to run slow and hard. What's the opinion on which brand is the best?

Are these rods still available?

Makes sense ........ Thanks for sharing.

At the risk of sounding like a dumby ...... What does "bump" mean when used in this forum?

This subject is something that I've been pondering for months now. I'm leaning towards purchasing a special mate as that seems to be the best solution..... but is it? Would love to hear the thoughts of others on not just spoon storage but what solutions work for flasher/dodger/spin doctor/smartfish storage. I hate having stuff laying all over the boat. Dave
