Received my weights today. They look awesome and quick delivery!!!!!!!!!

THANKS !!!!!!!!!

Another thing to try, if there is a "cup" inline with the washdown make sure its fill first and use some Vasoline/petrolium jelly on the rubber O-ring to ensure an airt ight seal. i had to do this this spring myself and has been solid since

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

====================

Great morning in Fair Haven. Headed east of chute and started setting lines just before Moon beach. Hit fish the whole way. Started with cookie cutter browns and then took a major shot on the rigger after a great aerial show landed a 8.2 lb steelhead. Took another rip off the rigger and this time it was a 6.5 lb brown. The bite slowed when the sun came up.

you can mount the mast and reels in the front of the bow by the anchor strorage area. I have mine mounted in a 6" track section. The one thing I did was move my reels to the back supports on my hardtop so I didnt have to walk in the bow to let the line out. For you you can mount yours on the rails like "birddog" did and just run your lines to the mast in the front. I have had great luck running my boards this way. Just make sure you add a extra piece of line on the board line to "pull it in" and set you rods with.

Slow start until we hit Moon Beach. Picked up 3 Browns all 2-4 lbs, and landed one King around 14 lbs, and lost a good high teen-low twenty King (snapped 10lb test). Awesome action watching King jump and fight on light action tackle. One king took green nuclear spoon off rigger 5 down over 30 and the other hit a J-9 black and gold plug off planer board.

how are you rigging the rubberbands? are you half-hitching the band around your line and then using a shower curtain hook or similar? A fish will not always break the band (or any pinch pad release) you have to watch the line closely and will see a "shaker" then you just point the rod tip towards the release, reel in any slck line and pull towrds the back of the boat to snap it

i tried 3 different batteries to make sure that wasnt the issue. I have a call in Curt to see what he thinks.

As a side note I was frantically looking for a spare because this was during the Fall LOC and Woody's Tackle in Port Ontario actually broke up a complete unit and sold me just the probe and said he would order a new probe to make the unit complete again. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE - NO ONE ELSE would do this for me

THANKS HANK !!!!

Depending on water color and clarity you can run these from 30-100' back off a rigger down anywhere from 3-10' depending on your depth of water. You can also flatline these off boards just use longer leads. as far as speed goes, let the fish tell you. sometimes as slow as 1.8 and sometimes they want it 2.5. dont be afraid to experiment and change speed

Last year my DR started giving me the wrong Temp and Speed readings. I checked it against a couple different boats next to me and mine was WAY OFF. the question I have is can I have this serviced/repaired from the factory? has anyone else had an issue like this

MIKE

THE NK28 Gold/Copper backed has been the top producer for me. Here is post from a little while back and this spoon was on FIRE !!!

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

ACTION WAS FAST PACED AND NON STOP. STARTED WITH A DOUBLE AND EVERYTHING FIRED FROM RIGGERS TO DIPSEYS. HOT SPOON WAS GOLD BACKED GOBY ACCOUNTING FOR 7 OUT OF 10 HITS. ALL BROWNS CAME FROM 120-180 RANGE AND KINGS WERE PARKED AT 230. GREEN SPIN DR/ GREEN FLY DID THE JOB ON THE KINGS.

From the chute head East and fish all the bluffs all the way to Moon Beach. There is a creek that dumps in just before that. look for stained/warmer water. if you hit nothing there head West and fish from Blind Sodus Bay towards "7" sisters. again you have to look for warm stained water. depending on the weather and the temperatures dont be afraid to fish anywhere from 5-30 FOW

This is my Youngest daughter and her smile absolutely melts my heart anytime she catches a fish. Its amazing how seeing a child "light up" anytime they catch a fish that brings things back into prespective.

any idea on how much weight? i dont want to go overboard but want them to make a difference

I have made a set of dual boards out of 1x8 Cedar and they track great but i have read that if you add weight to the outside board they will run better. I have seen some guys use decoy weights. My question is how much/what kind of weight to use for each board.

I run the in-line Spro swivels for my copper to backing and copper to leader connections. My question is what is the best knot to use for 50lb flouro to swivel. I am adding a 10' piece between the copper and backing to hook my release to.

Mike

Yes it should. it has a post that fits in the standard clamp that bolts through the single rod holder.

Deal fell through

$85 for the pair

I have 2 sets of Cannon Rear Mount Dual Rod Holders. Comes with Clamp and Post for Rear Mount, but also be Front Mounted if wanted. These are Brand New in the Original Factory Boxes Un-Opened.
