  1. Thank you gentlemen. That is important to know. I will pull them out when I can't pinpoint the fish.
  2. Yes, it is.
  3. Fishin freak said: When you guys say check valve is that the same as an anti-siphon valve. I'm actually in the process of trying to tie my new kicker Motor Inn to the main fuel line as well. Thinking of putting just manual shut offs. If this main fuel tank already has an anti-siphon valve at the pickup is it okay to put another one in line as well An anti siphon valve on a tank is often used to protect the tank from draining through your engine.Hence the name. This is important when the tank sits higher than your engine. The direction of the anti siphon valve is to prevent fuel from getting out of the tank. The inline check valve we talk about is set so the fuel cannot flow back in the direction of the tank, which is the opposite of the anti siphon valve. If it is shut offs you consider, you may want to look into a three way valve to save room
  4. A very true statement.
  5. It's a beauty. Let's just hope that the white stuff in the back ground of that picture will be green by next week so you can go enjoy!
  6. I always thought that a primer ball has its own check valve
  7. Going through my lure box I found about 35 northern kings, mostly 28s, but some were bigger. This made me wonder about lure speed. I know that super slims have a large range as do stingers. Is there a speed range in which 28 northern Kings perform best?
  8. It usually is blocked with sand at this time of year. Every year they bring in some heavy equipment to clear the passage.
  9. Before you take it from the dealer lot, make sure it starts and does all the things you want it to do. They may return it to you with a dead battery or some BS like that. That is not something you want to find out on the boat ramp. Good luck on your second maiden voyage.
  10. I had some issues with back flow and air suction. It all stopped when I put in check valves in each of the lines
  11. I think you stand a better chance of winning the power ball
  12. Is that the view from your back porch?
  13. It does have a 4 blade prop and it weighs 108 pounds.
  14. It is a long shaft, 20 inches
  15. It seems that 11 inch UV paddles work better than the smaller flashers.
  16. Islander ! The Islander can deal with surprises. Seneca often has thunder storms moving through and with them 4 and 5 foot waves with crazy short wave periods. With an Islander you can stick the bow into the waves. With a pontoon all you can do is run for your life. Aluminum boats have the same electrical charge as the water around them and that diminishes the risk of a lightning strike on your rig.
  17. Thank you for that info. Cornelis.
  18. I have for sale a 2016 9.9 4 stroke Suzuki kicker with electronic start, remote cable control , EFI, and tilt and trim and the owners manuals. These engines are about $3800 new. It has 60 hours of use, is in perfect condition and it is ready to to be hitched onto your boat. I bought it last year thinking it would be great to use on my Islander, but it is just too much engine for my boat. The price is $2200. I am located in Rochester,NY. But I am willing to travel within reason.
  19. Does anybody have any idea as to how long it will take for all that water falling in the mid west to make it down to Lake Ontario and will it have any noticable effect on our lake level?
  20. The guys did not so much get hammered for killing crows or coyotes or wood chucks. They got hammered for boasting about it.
  21. Crows and ravens are the biggest clean up crew you could ever wish for. They dispose of all the dead animals at the end of winter. They are also very smart creatures. The Caracara is Mexico's national bird
  22. I saw a set of riggers for sale in the Brewerton fire house today
  23. Maybe we can convince the DEC to invest in a bunch of trail cameras. that may help to reduce and record violations Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. I can bring my Suzuki 9.9 kicker if anybody is interested.
