  1. 2 people helps re-spooling.

     

    Loosen the clutch knob.  Pull all the old cable off manually.  Remove clutch knob assembly.  Take the spool off the shaft.  Cut the old cable crimp off and remove.  Put new cable through boom-end Pulley (don't forget this step), thread new cable through the hole in the spool and re-crimp the end.  Re-install spool on the shaft and align line counter gears.  Either use the dc motor to spool it back on or use your back-up manual crank handle.  Helps having 2 people at the end to provide good resistance on the new spool of cable to wind it on the tightly.  

     

    Then re-terminate the end of your new cable.

  2. I hate to ask this question and sound dumb but, is there a trick to running the magnum divers?? I do great with the Number 1 divers and catch plenty of fish but I have tried multiple times with the magnums when the fish go really deep and all I end up with is nothing but big tangles. I always run them on a number 2 setting. Very frustrating. Just wondering if there is a trick to them????

     

    Another consideration: how aggressive are you trolling with the boat with these deployed?  Do you take sharp turns?  You aren't as agile as you may think out there... take wider swooping turns and see how you make out.

     

    Still could be too aggressive let out...
