    Issues with some of the drags. On the ones I've used, first generations, I found the drag would loosen a bit on its own and and sometimes it would be difficult to set just right. Either too loose or too tight. Once you get used to them, they are nice. Some of these issues are already resolved. I plan on buying some convectors. Can't justify the difference in price.

    I think you would find the fleas to be horrible.

    In Kingston ontario we have windmills all over Wolfe island and they ran a main power line from there under the St Lawrence into a main power station in Kingston. This has not affected the fishing at all in the area. It continues to be tremendous walleye and musky fishing and I know salmon/trout still follow the river into some of the local tribs. This electo magnetic force is likely false or atleast not a concern. If anything I think this cable may attract fish as I have caught a lot of fish within a couple hundred yards on either side of it. I should add that I agree the windmills are ugly and a huge waste of money.

    Most people will launch at either the Glenora ferry ramp, picton harbour or Finkles park in bath. U can also find more Info at quintefishing.com.

    It's nice to be able to bump the speed up in very small increments that just can't be done via controls or tiller handle. I can go up in 0.1 mph increments. My kicker idles at 1.5 also. I fish mainly walleyes and they like 2-2.3 in summer and down to 1.3-1.5 in late fall so the control is necessary for me Good luck with your purchase. I'm sure all of the options work well

    Reports I've heard are not great. Typically mid oct is when things get better and build as the water gets colder. I wouldn't come till nov

    For trolling or for running to and from ? My vote is garmin tr1 gold. Incredible unit, gives you the remote steering and throttle as well as programmable turns and routes via your head unit

    Isn't there a trophy walleye fishery in the bay's off Lake Ontario in ny? If not Id be goin to quinte or the St Lawrence. If I'm gonna freeze my butt off fishing Id rather catch something worth bragging about. 18-24" fish can be caught all year on most lakes.

    No water temp was 68 in the reach on Monday. There are fish there but I feel they are residents. The shoals out on the lake are on fire right now.

    17 imo is too small. I run 30lb most run 20+ that I know.
  17. BigMac
    Why not get the tr1 and remove the ez steer since u won't need it anymore?
  18. BigMac
    There has been some fish taken in Adolph reach. I'd rather troll all day for 2 bites that are big than fish weed lines for eaters. Swing for the fences.
  19. BigMac
    What else would u run it on? I guess copper or leadcore. But yes wire dipsy is money
  20. BigMac
    Bite has been decent there Kevin You should do well. Pm me If you want some Info.

    Agree with above on depending what lake. I fish Lake Ontario and bay of quinte exclusively and in only 5 years of trophy walleye fishing have caught probably 20 fish over 10 lbs and seem probably close to a hundred. I've caught a handful over 12 and one over 14. My limit is 15 before I will consider a mount. I thought of mounting 14 as it was only 30.5" and it was caught in august which is very rare.

    I was there yesterday. The berkley display was closed outside already but still grabbed 8 of the flicker minnows. Can't wait till next weekend. That bass pro was very organized and clean.

    Lower unit oil should not be milky at all. There is water getting in somewhere that shouldn't be.
  24. BigMac
    We are 4/4 walleye on Lake Ontario right now, All braid. All between 8-11lbs.
  25. BigMac
    Yup agreed. We boated a bunch yesterday on straight spoons running 5-10 ft above the marks on graph
