Hahaha - you got me!

I'm owed. Details and amount irrelevant to the conversation, but he never made good on it. I've given up - not worth the time to try and recover my losses.

Awesome - looking forward to it!!!

Need to run them on different frequencies or they will interfere. Some of the CHIRP models can also cause interference with fixed frequency units as the CHIRP waveforms sweep across a frequency range essentially. Another option is just to network the two displays off of one transducer if they are capable.

I had an F-200 and I ran fully synthetic in it (can't remember the weight of the oil it used) but it was close to $10 per quart. Filters are around $15 so it's not that far out of line although I don't think the Yamalube is synthetic. You can run whatever you want in it and probably do an oil change for around half that or even less - I'm not saying you should though. Just because wally world has wolfs head motor oil on sale for $1.99 a quart and you can buy off brand filters to save a few bucks too doesn't mean its a good idea. Bottom line is you have a motor worth around 13K and in all likelihood you probably can't rebuild it yourself it if fails catastrophically - I would run the best filters and best oil you can. Your kicker probably doesn't have a filter - just change oil and again use the good stuff. Lower unit is easy to deal with too - get the correct fitting to pump new lower unit fluid in and it's just as easy as an oil change.

Notice the original poster asked if 500' of 30# copper would fit - my guess is probably. 45# copper - no way.

X3 - Mike at Propellor Works is a good guy. Great work.

Primetime, Thunderstruck, Tall Tails, or Kingfisher, all on the blue dock at wrights landing out of Oswego - all absolutely top notch professional outfits.

Agree with Gill-T. One exception to that rule for me is if Browns are tight to the bottom - in that case I also like a single siwash hook as they are much less likely to get clammed up.

Anglers Avenue - hands down. http://www.anglersavenueproshop.com/

point well taken - Try the same thing with a stinger, superslim, or flutter spoon - you just have to run things together that are speed tolerant with each other... I run spoons on my riggers and a mix of sticks and spoons on boards with no issues. You have to understand how all play together with regard to speed. The guy was simply asking if it was possible to mix spoons and sticks into a spring BT spread....

You absolutely can run both at the same time. Let the fish tell you what they want on any given day and then adjust from there.

It all depends - some guys like to match them and some don't. Typically I move things around until I get a combo that starts firing and then that combo stays together until it goes cold. After you do that a while you get an idea of what will work and when. List the attractors that you bought and I will bet you will get a bunch of people chiming in with what fly goes best behind it.....

Throughout the show.

Can't wait Russell!

Time to start dumping a bag of fertilizer every trip into Lake O.....obviously I'm joking...but there is data I have seen which shows markedly declining levels of phosphates in the lake as well as other nutrients.

Fished Sylvan this morning - 6" of ice out to 28 feet of water. A couple thin areas I came across where spud went through in a whack, but without snow on ice easy to spot those areas. Ran across two such areas - guessing its where water drained down through - 24" x 24" area approx. covered by about an inch of ice...

I have the same barrier coat and also use VC-17 on my hull - very little growth. When it gets pulled - spray if off with a pressure washer and then just touch up high wear areas in the spring. Simple as that. You should get a couple years in between coats of VC, although you might need to do it the first two years and then every other after that. It looks sharp as it is applied and in the water will change colors after a week or so, but that's normal. Good luck with it - worth every bit of effort to do it right....will save you time and money in the long run.
