  1. These are pretty good for brown fishing in the spring. I got them last season for use with my planer boards and they worked great. Now I'm looking to do something different. $50 for the pair, firm.
  2. Very cool pics, ray. Looks like you ate pretty well down there.
  3. Also have the bottom piece to the swivel bases, just not shown in pics.
  4. - 2 Manual crank riviera downriggers. One pully is a little bent up, but they both work fine and are loaded with cable. 4' booms and swivel mounts. You can see the bent piece of aluminum, the pulley works fine without binding.
  5. Nice! Good to see you're taking advantage of those days off
  6. Going to try and get in... im sure he's slammed given the nice weather
  7. I like big dave's explanation! They all are a bit of a trophy in their own way. Personally - It would have to mean enough to me to spend the money to get it mounted vs. invest the cash into tackle, etc. I guess thats the paradigm. It would have to be a monster that won me a spot at a tourney, or another great story behind it to go on the wall. Doesn't matter what species.
  8. More clarification from Walker: "I would run both lines separate Matt with separate fusing. If you ever got both balls mired in kelp or weeds and are pulling them at the same time, to get up over a dropoff they would each draw up to 30 amps ...even though running clrean they only draw 8 amps."
  9. Ended up emailing walker directly, will include here in case it helps anyone additionally: From Randy @ Walker: Use 10 ga or heavier from battery to downrigger and use a 30 amp fuse.
  10. Yup, I'm all set with that. One at the helm and also one at the battery.
  11. Finally going to install my used electrics on the boat. They are Walker Tournament riggers, and there are two of them. Planning on making my own harness. I assume a 12ga harness be sufficient... but that's why i'm asking. What kind of amperage am I looking at when both of them are operating? Do many of you guys wire them direct with a fuse, or through a switch at the helm? Anything else I should consider?
  12. The smile is priceless lol [ Post made via Android ]
  13. Awesome. Thanks for your effort Rob. [ Post made via Android ]
  14. Not the most friendly guy to deal with based on my experience. I'm pretty sure RAS is out of business now - for sale sign on the property.
  15. Nice! Did you get any walleyes?
