    It depends on what kind of quality you want - anywhere from $10 to $30+ per inch....

    Rich had mine right around a year, which for the product he turned out was well worth the wait. Look at the detail around the caudal peduncle alone...

    When I had an outboard the cheapest I found for a Mercury Tempest Plus prop was also from Prop Gods.....

    I got my son's BT mount back today. Very happy with it. Was his first Lake O fish so we had to put it on the wall. Was done by Rich Benedict of Angling Artisans in Kendall NY. Fiberglass re-creation where he makes a mold of your fish and then pulls a fiberglass blank from the mold and then adds the magic to make it look like its alive. Pics don't really do it justice to be honest.

    Pretty interesting. The one concern I have with the marina improvements is that it all comes at a price. They will have to balance what they are proposing with what the general slip owner is willing to pay....that being said - I would gladly pay more for security and peace of mind.

    For spring fishing shallow sticks off of boards and spoons of boards or riggers is what most run. For sticks you will want a mix of bright sticks for dingy water, and naturals for clear water. Consider the following models: Bayrats Rapala J9s and J11s Rapala F7, F9, F11s Smithwicks Storm Jr. Thundersticks and Regular sized thundersticks Challengers Really any stickbait can produce. As far as spoons go, same deal bright spoons for dingy water (spoons with a white back also work well in dirty water) and naturals for clear water applications. Regular sized stingers, DW Super Slims, Smaller warrior spoons, and others will work. Color choices are endless. Good luck with the spring browns.

    Thanks guys - we definitely enjoy fishing and seeing my wife and son get into it is even more special. Looking forward to the future and making more memories!

    Made a quick vid of some media that was on my phone - mostly fishing with my wife and son out of Oswego. As the snow starts to fly am already looking forward to next season... Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuTPy73ytuM

    Cable diameter and also the way in which the cable is terminated all contribute significantly to blowback. In a rigger you want a hydrodynamic shape as well as to minimize the total cross sectional area of material that is submerged which includes rigger weight, release, method of termination, and cable itself. John King makes a thinner rigger cable which is nice when fishing deep and isn't too bad with the fleas.

    Just found this thread again and checked out all 21 pages...Very cool stuff. Here is ours. Tiara 3300 open we had trucked back from Wisconsin a couple years ago.

    I don't need another boat but damn -- this seems like a great deal!

    Nice job!!!

    Mine weren't - I can speak for your boat - but I thought it would be a bigger hassle than it turned out to be when I replaced mine last summer. Good luck.

    Figure out what kind of connector you have on your blades (for example mine are 5mm bayonet) and then just go to any autoparts store and buy a 14" blade with that connector.

    Probably looking at around 13-15 gallons per hour per motor at that RPM give or take. Depends on a bunch of factors but that is probably in the ballpark.

    Solid waste from the China King Buffet along 104 that got dumped in the lake I'm sure...
  20. AnglingAddict
    Damn! Good luck with the sale!

    Could be a little rough on Sunday...

    Approx. how many pages is this manual? Just curious if it is the same thing I currently have or more comprehensive. Thanks.
  23. AnglingAddict
    I'm not surprised - I have noticed similar issues with the Navionics App for ice fishing. I have a garmin on my boat and it doesn't seem much better. I honestly think there is probably a lot of estimating and interpolation.
  24. AnglingAddict
    My guess is this - I am sure they don't survey every square foot of the lake - I would bet that there is a lot of interpolation that goes on between contour lines vice real hard measurement which can lend itself to some inaccuracies. In addition, differences between seasonal water levels, transducer mounting locations and angles and all other variable essentially render a true apples to apples comparison nearly meaningless. No different than two people standing next to one another each with a wrist watch - which one is correct?

    The problem with listing under one heading is that now users are forced to look at each person's post with several items - it makes it very hard to scroll through listings to see what's available at a glance by using the subject line of the post as a filter.
