  1. I agree w capt ace, but check out the smart troll, android device that sends the depth & temp back to your android every 8 seconds. It stays in line and is about the size of your index finger, looks to be one of my best tools Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. I got a smart troll last season and hope to compare actual to what the charts say
  3. I have two (2) for sale, $225 delivered to you US mailing address. I can add at no cost back up aluminum plates, you will have to drill out for bolts. Includes bases with thumb screws. Below is copied from Cisco web site $149 each Pick up in Buffalo NY area avaliable Scott LONG CRADLE (DIPSY) ADJUSTABLE ROD HOLDER Home > Shop > Rod Holders > Cradle Rod Holders (Dipsy) > Long Cradle (Dipsy) Part Number: RHLCR The long cradle was originally designed for charter boats but has been adopted by many fishermen with a smaller size deck. The unit was engineered to allow the reel to be held further up the cradle keeping more of the rod handle out of the boat. There is a security ring at the end of the cradle which can be quickly engaged/disengaged. Charter captains use of the long cradle allows for comfort and freedom for their customers to move around the deck. This product is great for pulling dipsy's and trolling with Muskie lures! PRODUCT FEATURES The cradle style rod holders are designed to index 360° with 20 interlocking positions by simply lifting and turning our exclusively engineered spring loaded mechanism. When engaged, it is secured by machined teeth around the entire circumference for virtually no wear on the product ensuring long lasting sustainability. In addition to the radial movement, the cradle will adjust to any angle from 0-135° by actuating the padded lever. The lever can be rotated in any direction to meet the needs of each user. No tools are required for positioning of the rod holder. All aluminum components are anodized to military specs. The cradle rod holder is designed to ensure quick removal of the rod from the holder. The handle of the rod can be removed by tilting it up vertically and freeing it from the cradle.
  4. I have 2 cisco holders up in the bow due to butt ends sticking into work area. Up front they are right in front of window which is out of the way but we do have to run to the bow to get them. I think with the tube style I can get 4 rods at the rear sides a little easier and faster to grab. 19' boat
  5. That sounds interesting, I'll look at the Talors'a at the Niagara show. I dont have a rod tying setup, but Im sure I could do it by just hand wrapping, but I'm also sure it would look like dog meat too. Hate to see a $100 new rod look like crap. John you want to wrap a couple of rods? Scott
  6. I know a lot of people use Okuma and like you said the price puts you there. I would like to see the Diawa next to the Talora's to compare. Like said above, I have some of my Diawa great lakes rods for over 30 years and still use them on my riggers, getting pretty beat up a few tips replaced etc, but still catch fish
  7. 95% of my setup is Diawa, rods & reels. Need to get 2 new 10.5' dipsy rods and was wondering what everyone likes, I don't have to stay Diawa thanks for you input
  8. x2, I like to keep them just under water when in close (less than 20'). I prefer to run big boards over inline for spring fishing. Always have a rigger in the water too.
  9. look up "thumper rod" yes used on lake O.
  10. Great pics, we'll done! Sent from my SM-T280 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Looking for any parts, T connectors, resistors, cable etc. to my Lowrance HDS thanks Scott
  12. Looks like I have plenty of room then for ratcheting rod holders, hope to see some good cash deals at the Niagara Falls show in a few weeks, right now I like the Traxtech Gt100 rod holders
  13. Been running dipsy for many years but want to change my rod holders (locations) to ratcheting, most likely the Traxtech. My question is how close together can I install the rod holders (2) on same side. I am limited to about 22" between a downrigger and a tree. I will install a track. thanks
  14. One questions that I have that seems to be repeating on the Vortec. warranty and service is great. That is telling me, sure we'll fix it, that's great. On the the other hand I would rather have something that never needed repairing, to even think about warranty issues. I think a scope would be a easy item to last a lifetime. just my 2cents
  15. Free, if you want to pick it up, N Tonawanda to Hamburg NY area. to ship you might as well go to wallyworld
  16. I think I have one too, where you located
  17. Hand Crank search I found my original cannon manual, the riggers I have the Cannon Marlin MS10A w short shop. On the boom is Magnum10A and manual even shows the part number for the hand crank 1202002. I have no idea what it should look like, but if there is one out there I would like to buy it. thanks Scott
  18. Never needed one, but would like one too, now what are the chances of 2 of these being around.... Thanks Scott Sent from my SM-T280 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. no need to take apart, the Cisco pic shows the tubes fine, thanks
