  2. Al,

    Cabelas sells a auxiliary steering unit that works well for me. It mounts to the front of your outboards with a ball joint on each motor connected with a piece of allthread that you cut to fit your boat. I had the ez steer and it did not work well for me. The bar would hit my main motor when the kicker motor was tilted out of the water. My boat has a Johnson 140 and Tohatsu 9.8 kicker.

    This system is easier (much cheaper) and it is in the front of your motors (easily accessible) if you need to disconnect while on the water. Each ball joint has a spring clip to remove it. simply pull it back and the rod disconncects.

    Took me about 20 minutes to install and couldn't be happier. I wrapped the all thread with duct tape to keep the threads from rubbing/wearing on cables/fuel hoses but a piece of old hose would work nice too.

    Hope this helps.

    Yup for sure this is what I will be doing,don t need to be hanging off the back of the motors to fix something,and the costs..245 vs 40 says it all,if a fellow wanted he could go to the local hardware and get a piece of threaded rod and a couple ball joints and make one for 20 or less.

    thanks for the in put everyone.

  3. Anyone have an experience with connecting the kicker to the main motor,I looked at the EZ steer thing,not sure about it,read some reviews,more than half were not happy,just wondering what else is out there that is reliable and good value.

    have an 8 Yam to a 90 Yam.

    Thanks Al

  4. Hi. I have not used wire for trolling ever,I am thinking I might give it a shot this year as the fleas are irritating out there and when you get a nice fish on and you can t get it in because of the fleas. I have used braid and mono only, my question is, can any reel be strung with wire ? I have an extra Convector that I would like to load up with,but am not sure if one needs a specific reel for wire.

    thanks Al

  5. I am looking to replace a couple downrigger rods, the ones i have are old and would like to update, both are 8'6" which I think they don't even make anymore,I see 9 & 10s out there,just looking for a basic mediocre rod for rigging,dipsey and flat lining a bit.

    Any input would be appreciated.

    Thanks Al

  6. HI.

    I am looking to purchase another reel for down rigging, I have an older Daiwa and it works great, want to update my knucklebuster to a level wind line counter, so maybe i can use a dipsy on it. any ideas on a half decent level wind lc ? thanks for you help, this site is very informative, I just discovered it a week ago.
