  1. first like to say nice job on restoring your boat . looks great . if you still want to see your gauges . look into the Ram mount available . w.rammounts.com
  2. x2... barrett marine is very good . pricey but worth it .
  3. i don't think i seen this before on a boat sure it been done . looks pretty cool no dead batteries for you while boats sites idle
  4. my dog loved the boat. i hook the boat up the night before going the next day he be trying to jump in the truck thinking he was going to left behind . our dog was family to us . yes it more of a task to having him with us.its a pain watching out for his safety and well being but i think it worth it . just don't do what i did . i went out of west port bay. went out in the lake and had a great fishing morning was back in by 11:00 . when i got to the dock my dog yank the leash out my hand and took of down the shore line interrupting all the mamas fishing . son of gun even sold a sunny din't think either one of us was going to make out alive .. i ended up giving up my three kings i keep to make amends with the mamas . got the dog and boat loaded and got the heck out of there ........my bad .
  5. Very cool like to try trolling with some . do sell them ? Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. seems like our spring is the worst part of winter LOL if that makes sense .
  7. i believe scent helps the catch rate . i used smelly jelly for a long time . its a must to wash lures after use . i switch to pro cure scents now i like the uv enhance . for the scent on your hands i wash hands with lemon dish soap before i leave home once on the boat i don't like to touch any thing with gas or oil . when time to set up i will put a bit of pro cure on fingers before handling rods or lures . after first catch its all fish scent on hands just wipe with clean rag . what better scent can you use than a real fish only takes a day or two to wear off . i been cleaning fish as we trolling i throw the bait and guts from the fish bellies behind the down riggers and gotten hit while i'm cleaning fish . might be a coincidence but has happen several times . my buddy is a mechanic and wears is wash jeans form work with ground in grease in them . its seems my setup out fishes his most of the time . he won't handle a fish with out a rag between hands and fish for a pic . where i will so yes scent make a difference ...
  8. A dump truck tarp system . mounted on the ground back boat up to it then pull frame up and over . bungee cord the side Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  9. heard in the news this morning east end of Lake Ontario could reach hurricane force winds and flooding could occur. I for one I've had enough of this type of weather Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. its a saber thing , looks like mine when i got the boat . if you lose power rewiring it there is a good size main fuse in the top left under the dash hard to see with wires by the tons if i remember right its a 30 amp power comes from the main plug by motor to the front good luck with the job ...

  12. I have a relative that lives on Stony Creek right across from the state launch. He like to fish out in front of the sand dunes Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. i set my boat with a panther kicker bracket . it is rated for a 35 horse four stroke my kicker is a 8 horse tohatsu . i broke the backing pad . i made my own backing pad out of 1/4 aluminum and 1 3/4 oak . panther did replace the backing pad but don't trust it
  14. spring rain are coming soon
  15. he said it has 5.7 L think that be a 350 chevy. i have a crestliner sabe same thing as the lung above these boats will take a lot of rough water with wide beam high sides . great boat to fish from.
  16. I made up a slide diver rod with wire and braid . I can dig that it would be more stealth for eyes . Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. why run braid when you can set a wire rod with twirly tips you have . wire will out last braid and works much better with the fleas .

  22. I don't think it's a political thing far-left or far right but I agree with you about the air we breathe the food we buy at the grocery stores the water we drink is contaminated with something to eat in a few fish I don't think it's going to be a big deal Sent from my XT1609 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
