I run 3 cannons. 2 of the HS and one STX. Never had any issues with them. I run 13lb torpedoes and 14lb sharks with them pulling a probe. As any newer “high speed” rigger make sure that your wire size from your battery to the rigger is sufficient enough, as they draw more AMPs then the older ones

I have two of the Kingfish II chairs going on 6 years now and still holding up great. I do fold them up and store them in the cockpit or cuddy when not in use but they have seen tons of use so far. I did remove the hardware and put new lock-tite on them when I bought them

One thing I would advise is to order an extra one or set. I always have a spare set aboard. They are a easy to change and when they go they can ruin a trip or weekend.

The boom on one of my mag 10 down riggers won't lock in place after being adjusted to where I want it. Could that possibly be the intermediate tube collet?
More than likely yes. They are just a plastic collar and can get worn after time. There should be a nipple on the collar that fits in the boom. Sometimes they get broken off and cause similar issues.

I use 4x4 posts. I put one in the stern inside a cement post holder and use decking straps to make a cradle at the top. I run 4x4 from this post forward and it rests on a blanket on my hardtop. I do the same for the bow with a another post holder and run the 4x4 back towards the stern.
Due to my particular setup (walk around cuddy) I found that this has been the most stable. I live just north of Syracuse and we see a lot of snow and this has never let me down.

If I would have to bet on this I’d put my money on a very acrobatic steelhead??
I would have to agree especially out in 200 FOW

It’s too tough to tell fish size when you never see it. The famous tale of the one that got away.
Inline boards work well most of the times but there are times when even a hit from a smaller fish that the board may catch a wave just right and it dive bombs and goes wherever it wants. It often digs down and side planes wherever the current takes it.
Not saying that’s what happened to you but it happens every so often

Up most respect to you bout time!! Good karma always rewards those who have. :yes:
Thanks Pap. There different types of guys on this site.
Me - I’m not looking to get rich, just trying to help the fellow angler out whether it be from selling gear that I don’t use anymore for less, or to my fishing reports where I keep no secrets.
We’ve all been there one day.....

Modifying boards
in Open Lake Discussion
Posted
Move the tow eye back towards the rear of the board more, even just an inch or two. Also drill some small holes in the bottom of the boards towards the rear and fill them with lead. I used old sinkers. Then epoxy over the lead to seal the holes. This will make the boards sit lower in the water and “bite” more adding them to pull harder and better
