  1. got a couple eyes, one medium length one looked healthy, little and bigger one looked undernourished? small one was shaped like a banana. Tossed em back for another day
  2. Thanks for the input Nito, Found a smokin deal on the hbird 597ci hd di, think, I'm gonna go for it.
  3. Looking to upgrade my graph on my boat to a new hbird 597ci hd so I can get gps to mark spots. I've been wondering if I should opt for the slightly smaller screened 587ci hd so I could afford to get the Navionics premium east map card. I fish honeoye,canadice, and hemlock 90% of the time which are pretty much featureless bowls. All of these maps are listed on their site but don't show up as the "hd" maps. Do you think I would benefit from a map chip or would the money be better spent elsewhere
  4. I have some of the cannons side mounted on my 16' aluminum boat. Just use some good bolts and they'll work
  5. Where are you located? [ Post made via Android ]
  6. waddaya gettin your lakers on if ya don't mind me askin, I've had great luck with 1oz northland gumballs and white superflukes [ Post made via Android ]
  7. awesome, jiggin lakers is addicting
  8. take the tiller handle apart and check the springs/tensioners and make sure they're in good shape. Had to do it on our johnson 30 horse tiller last year
  9. shortly I'm going to add a new graph to my 16' aluminum tiller boat. I currently have a hbird matrix 12 with a transom mounted 200khz transducer. The new graph i'm looking to get is the hbird 597ci hi which apparently has a 200/83khz ducer. Would I be able to mount the new transducer next to the old one and not have any interference? Or would it be feasable to make a board that I could clamp and hang off the bow somehow which is where I would like to move the old graph to?
  10. if you have a boat with enough dependable horsepower to get you out of the bigger waves which is usually the max reccomended hp, a good 1000gph bilge pump, you should be able to point her into any big waves you might encounter to stay afloat. Trying to cross waves or ride with them is a death wish in a smaller open tiller boat
  11. Please send pics to [email protected] [ Post made via Android ]
  12. Switched gears and tried some jigging these past 2 days and have had an absolute blast. Landed 6 last night and dumped as many. Today my walleye fishin buddy from school drove out from erie to do some jiggin and we hooked about a 15 and landed half that many. Will get pics up soon [ Post made via Android ]
  13. I make myself coupons for dicks regularly, never ever had an issue. Even buying nike, underarmor, and other stuff that is suposed to be "excluded" from the discount. I've walked in sometimes and said I forgot my coupon in the car and they will more often than not give you a discount anyways.
  14. that sounds awful! prop hit bottom when we were trying to get out in what is normally 12' of water... erie has certainly earned my respect from now on
  15. I've had my 16dt sea nymph in most of the finger lakes, michigan,erie and ontario. Watch the weather, have faith in your motor, have a good anchor/sea bag. Last year we got into some 6 to 7 footers on erie that came outta nowhere with no warning which turned out to be my scariest day boating ever. Just be careful and use common sense [ Post made via Android ]
  16. monsters, I thought they were sheephead but there aren't sheephead in these lakes
  17. Got out at 5 and trolled for 3 hours with only a few hit n runs on lc with a snapweight. Washed about 12 different spoons, 6 sticks and various spinners etc. Found some good stacks of em in 80 fow and dropped a jig down watched it hit bottom on the graph and played cat and mouse and ended up landing 5 decent lakers and dumping about 3x as many. It was the most fun I've had in a long time. Also saw some of the biggest smallies I've ever seen before chasing alewives around it was insane
  18. Heading out early in the morning tomorrow, hopefully I have some good pics to post up [ Post made via Android ]
  19. Walleye chop [ Post made via Android ]
  20. Ill send a few bucks if ya do or maybe we can work out a pickup sometime if I ever get another free day this summer with my new work schedule. Id greatly appreciate it! [ Post made via Android ]
  21. Depends on what you mean by "long." It takes a good half an hour to travel Hemlock's 7 mile length with 2 people on a 9.9HP at full throttle. Very true lol, I gain 6 mph when I move myself to the front of the boat, pull that maneuver quite often on hemlock [ Post made via Android ]
  22. Both lakes are small, doesn't take long to find em [ Post made via Android ]
  23. hope to have a report within the next 2 days for canadice
  24. I'd imagine things will settle down by saturday/sunday
  25. I gotta get some more, gonna be a sad day when i lose it
