    I currently have 2 tite locks for dipseys that came on my islander. I want to replace them with a more rugged rod holder. I am not going to get the track system. I also want to basically replace now holder over the existing holes of the Tite Loks..They dont have to go into the same holes just want to cover them. Any thoughts as to Big Jon multi set rod holder? Would they be strong enough for the dipsey? I see they have heavy duty too. I havent heard if Berts come with bases or it is just a track system?

    I bought a 1991 221V last year with the 4.3L V6 in her. I love it. Always wanted one and finally found it! I paid 8k for it..came with allot of rod holders, a full canopy, kicker plate etc..older electronics which I will upgrade. I got it out in Lake Erie. I basically watched craigslist. I will tell you one thing, they don't last long for sale once you do find out and there are not many out there for sale at least on craigslist. Here is a pic of mine taken last weekend.

    It is ok. You get allot of small 15-17" fish..once in awhile you get into some bigger females in the low to mid 20" inch range. The trout fishing rainbows and browns has picked up in recent years since they have been stocking them in there for awhile now

    Last September I purchased a 1991 221V Islander. Has the 4.3L V6, was decked out with custom SS rod holders, two BigJohn planer board reels, a homemade transom platform to hold downriggers, rods and the kickers gas tank, a heavy duty kicker bracket, full canvas and mooring cover for $8k. here is is in the water this past weekend. I wouldnt hesitate to look at an older boat as long as you know what you are looking for.

    I am spooling my rigs up with 30lb biggame and have 18lb and 12lb flourocarbon leader..that is my plan. if running dodgers, should I tie straight to the 30lb big game and skip the leader altogether?

    I have a tackle box full of walleye lures. I predominatly troll rapalas both stick and jointed. HAve those covered. Do not have any JPLugs and really not many spoons. the spoons I have a are predominatly casting spoons.

    ALL DEPENDS ON what you want to do with it. Grady's are a heavy boat that is for sure. I had friend who had just the 20' WA with a 150 V8 OB on it and it was adequate. If that beast were mine I would throw twin 300 Etecs on it

    Thanks. I have herd greens, reds (coho) yellow (lakers) and whites.. thanks for the tip on the size. What about the dipseys? Size wise?
  15. Adk1
    With all of the choices out there what is a must to have in the box for Dodger or flasher size and color? I see the range from 4" to 11" and dozens of colors etc.

    Great

    Now you are talking my language! We pull monster northerns thru the ice here on the Great Sacandaga (former world records northern was from the GSL)..did you weigh her? I am thinking a 42" post spawn would be in the low 20lb range? Our largest northern thru the ice is 48" weighing 36lbs. Here is one we got back a few years ago.

    Has anyone tried the Berkley 100% Flourocarbon line yet? (Not the vanish stuff)

    the Plant meaning that large smokestack on the East Shore?

    I guess I do not understand the lb rating on swivels..Was in a store last night looking at eagle claw ball bearing swivels. they are numbered..1,2,3 etc..what does that mean? I did not see any lb rating on the package

    I like salmon from Hannaford.. I have never eaten salmon out of Lake O. I would assume it tastes the same as the pacific salmon for the most part? When I do get one someday, I will most likely prep it like I do with salmon from the store. Cedar plank, very low temp on outdoor grill. Then I will get a decent smoker and smoke it at some point
