Thanks Guys .... The replies are very much appreciated!

I just cleaned up a couple dirty foam rod handles with armor-all claning wipes then used the protectent wipes finish them off ...... so far they are staying nice.

Heres the set up I made for my downriggers. The beam is made of aluminum. It's not too bad to work with .... cuts pretty easy. Having pedestal mounts the raised rear section of the boat made it quite easy to get a good sturdy mounts. So far, there is nothing I would have done different.

Read some comments about the Furuno 620 and 585 ...... maybe some others that the model number doesn't come to mind right now. What is the opinion and/or experience of those out there with the lower dollar models such as the LS4100/6100? I'm looking to replace a humminbird unit and most of the advise so far has directed me to the Lowrance such as the X510C. I only want to do this once (more)! heehee Not sure I need color. At this point I just want a unit that tells the truth. I mainly fish Seneca Lake New to the board .... if this has been discussed ..... sorry! Dave

Thanks BlueEye, That kind of welcome makes me feel comfortable already! Dave

I'm Dave and I have a place on Seneca. I've meet some real good people on another board and been getting tips and tricks on trolling. This board was suggested as another great source. I have a 17' crestliner that I'm still tweeking as far as my trolling set up. Had some limited success lately with the lakers. I believe this trolling bug has bit me pretty good.
