    Trolling with a kicker with my main engine off that has power assist steering and an auto pilot with a type r octopus drive.

    Several vehicles use an electric/hydraulic power steer pump. A few that come to mind, jeep grand Cherokees and mini Coopers, if your kicker has power output and your semi handy you should be able to pick one up in a junkyard and most of the harness and lines needed to overlay it on the existing power steering system, napa will be able to make any hoses you need with any fitting style,

    6/7 evening out of hughes

    in New York Fishing Reports - Lake Ontario (South Shore)

    Posted

    Set up around 5:30 with some other boats in about 100 fow, there were a few marks about 50 down, no takers, so we headed north. When we got out to 150 fow and we found tons of bait with lots of hooks around them, all on the bottom. but we could reach that deep with 8lb balls on the riggers. A few fish came part way up to take a look, but no bites. (got to love modern electronics).

    As we crossed 100 fow around 7pm we hooked up with a double, lost both. Made a few passes as the sun went down, we did managed to get 2 in the boat before calling it quits. All spoon bite, nothing on the spin doctor and fly, stingray diehard took 3 of 4 muped with the moonshine spoon.

    Big jon rigger repair

    in This Old Boat

    Posted

    I got all my parts for mine a few years ago directly from the big jon web site. The motor is held on with 3 Allen bolts from behind the pulley, the worst part will be getting the pin out of the main shaft if the previous owner didn't do the yearly maintenance. Also if you put a bearing in place of the small motor washer pack you can lift a few more pounds, hope that helps.

    Do you know where you lost it. Put your favorite Harbor Freight LED flashlight and a GoPro together and send it down. Use WiFi direct and put the image on your tablet. You may find it. When you do, hook it and bring it up. Depending on where you lost it, 99% of the lake bottom is sand. Make a 20' wide drag bar, tie it to the transom and have a go at it.

    Thats a great idea, thanks
