if pulling more then 300' copper,i would run the dual keels.another thing to consider is storage,they do take up alot of room,if you are fishing from a smaller boat,it may be tough to find a spot to store them,other then that they work great,we pull 500 copper on them and have pulled smaller coppers in 4 footers with no problem.

how is this related to fishing???????

okuma 15's ii anyone has any okuma magda 15 series linecounters they want to sell or trade for 20 or 30 series please send me a pm.thanks.

600 for all 4 is a good price,try local pick up only,also,there are some local tackle shows coming up like the one in watkins glen and the elotsa show in brewerton.

i did a check on ebay and there a couple on there going for 200 to 250 bucks.i think 200 bucks each is a good price.

mikes marina has 2 cabins they rent.right on the little salmon river.i believe you get a dock space with cabin rental.we just stayed in one this past weekend.for more info.you can google mikes marina in mexico or give beth a call during the week,they are not there full time in the winter,so if she does not answer,leave a message.315-963-3119.

best value for line counters is what you already have,the magdas are good reels,that hold up just fine.i have some that are 5 years old now and still work just fine,i think I have had 1 drag go bad,sent it to tuna toms and it was fixed for 10 bucks.i did what you are looking to do and bought a bunch of convectors,they are good reels also,but they didn't put any more fish in the boat,so stick with what you have and spend that money on something else,just my 2 cents.

yesit is dan and no problems getting launched,we were able to use the bulkhead to get in and out of the 16 footer.

nice day on the water today,sun came out and we were down to sweatshirts,but the fish didn't cooperate,went 0 for 2 over by catfish.it was really nice to be out on the water in the end of January,looking forward to spring.

Hit the water at 9 and by noon still had not moved a rod.fished from Selkirk to Brennan beach from 10 to 70 fow.fog was starting to get thick,so we started to head back toward the little River,popped a small brown at Selkirk pier,then about 15 minutes later we tripled,got them all back in the water turned around went back through and popped another one.4 on sticks and 1 on a spoon.see what tomorrow brings.

Mexico bay towed boat out to Mexico for the weekend,didn't get on the water till 2,had first fish on in 15 minutes,nice fat 5lb brown,then about a half hour later hook up another,but after a short battle,he got off.wind was blowing pretty good,so we packed it in.fished between little river and catfish 10 to 20 fow.be back out tomorrow,suppose to be light and variable.

like the chief said as far as fishing goes,what happened last year means nothing for this year.as far as sandy pond goes,if your boat is less then 20 feet,you should be o.k.but the channel changes from day to day depending on west wind storms.its all sand,so you wont ding a prop,but you may have to get out of your boat to get it off a sand bar.

elosta has their tackle show there,just checked the website,no date yet,but if its the same time as the last few years,its the middle of march.

sounds good to me big dave,bring on spring!!!!!
