  1. very nice eye ,bet taste good too
  2. sorry about the lost probe . i run 12 lb weights both side . maybe your cable had a kink in it . i am always looking that in my cables , if any cut it off and start new . about every two year i change out the cable on the probe rigger . as they get old they get weak ..
  3. hmmmm yeah that longer square end on the throttle rod made all the difference from half to full throttle . it is like paying full price to get half the job done ..
  4. thanks i have both . waiting for the flies from you and will be at again . the wild child uv fly been doing a grate job , boy does it light up once in the water nice job making that one thank agian Brian
  5. yes i did talk to mark he sent a me kit out right away . it called for cutting the factory throttle rod and i didn't want to that . that is why i ordered the master pro kit witch came with the bigger throttle rod . the 2 pic is the kit with factory rod the pic 3 is the factory rod the square end is short and the servo .couldn't open the throttle wide open and the rod the pro master comes with the square end is longer . pic 1 is the rod from pro master..
  6. that hard top looks different from what i am use to seeing , did you make it , if so looks like a nice job .
  7. be a nice walleye boat too.
  8. what spiny or pro troll do like to run with this fly just put an order in
  9. i think the itroll would be a top notch unit to have but didn't like you had to pay more cash to get the code to unlock the different programming it comes with witch put it over 500 bucks to get ( to much for me ) . the controllking hardware kit it comes with was incomplete to make my tohatsu open full throttle . i ended up buying a master pro kit to make thing run right . if had to do it again i go with master pro and get all parts to do the job the first time .
  10. i had the same thing happen to me . i put a new impeller kit in a alpha 1 . it ran and pump water on the muffs . when in the lake the thermostat gauge climbed pass where i knew something wasn't right ,back to trailer it went before overheat . when i took the water pump apart again found i used a wrong gasket witch closed off half a two part water port . once the right gasket was installed all was fine . the impeller kit came with multiply gaskets for different applications
  11. you are right , been on better dirt roads in the back woods ...
  12. the fish we caught yesterday are big and all have big full bellies . i wouldn't be surprised if we start see more lake trout in double digit range . nice report and congrats on the big laker...
  13. cayuga 6/10 rolling with bunches went to Deans cove to do some fun fishing after fishing seneca lake derby . we launch at 5:30 am and ran about 1 mile south and set up with what wind there was to the stern . when i put the kicker down i noticed the mounting pad to the kicker bracket was about broke in two .. i tied up a safe rope and went fishing . it started out slow and what fish were hitting wasn't staying hooked up . we turn to troll over to the east side above long point and pick a couple small LL and that was it till we hit 130 fow on the over side then it was lake trout for the rest of the day. we landed 12 lakers and lost about the same . we ended the day around 12 : 00 ,to day we used flasher flies , cowbells and spin glows and spoons . our speed was 2 . 2 and under . so we tied the hell out the kicker in the up position and hope for the best . the kicker is now off the boat and my friend is milling a new 2 inch aluminum mounting pad at is shop . maybe then i will be ready for the next bunch . also i caught a lake trout with what looks like puss sack above it eyes on both side the fish looked healthy , not sure what it was wrong with it .
  14. be nice if seneca lake was like oneida lake for eyes
  15. yeah the fishing sucks on seneca right now . it will turn around some day and for a 30 $ entry fee i just might be the one with the big smile at the end .
  16. that is one big rubber ducky in a pool
  17. i have an i/o also i put the valve where i can get to it with out opening any thing. i can run the i/o for bout 5 to 7 mins after turning the valve to kicker to get going on the fishing grounds . hell for that matter i set up with wind to my stern . all is good .
  18. thinking of my dads boat back in the day , 1968 80 hp evinrude on a thompson boat that baby would drink a 6 gallon can of gas in an hour . outboards sure have come a long ways from back when . the 8 hp tohatsu i troll with now slips gas and i am not sure what it burns cause it plumed into the main tank . i do know i am not going to gas station every week for gas for the boat like i did for the 2 stroke ..
  19. in open lakes discussion it said gates still lock as of sunday . i believe all state launches are closed . they also said east side is open . i afraid they will stay closed this year . so much for my state pass
  20. when with a guide is the client responsibility also for taken illegal ducks . i would think the Dec would check for NYS hunting license ,federal waterfowl stamps , steel shot and so on that the hunter is responsibility for. or this all fall on the guide. i am wondering if the client ask if hunting over a bait pile legal . what this guide has done is giving the sport a black eye ...
  21. good to hear you are back at it Ereabbit . seneca lake is hard fishing . i do like reading your reports . enjoy the the summer at your camp and good luck on the water .
  22. one of the two motors is drawing air witch is taken the prim from the lines and making your motors run lean witch is not good .there was just another topic about using valves or tees with priming bubs to hook a fuel line to the kicker . from the main tank . there is some good information in there check it out . i have a four stroke hook to the main tank . i used a three way valve with a prime bub in the line for the kicker only , cause i like to run the kicker out of gas at the end of the day . once i turn the valve to one side or the other the motor that is running can't draw air / fuel from the one that not being used . i had this set a short for it is new and it been working fine . just don't forget to turn the valve on for the motor you want to run or you won't get far don't ask me how i know
  23. this lake is sure fun to fish . your gopro test looks good , nice report . keep them coming .
  24. i believe most fish caught are release, and only a small amount are kept for dinner .
