  1. Found the fluxgate, it appears I would have to remove my steering column to open the unit to unplug it from the motherboard. Not willing to do so. Don't want to screw anything up. Sorry.
  2. Really what ?? Seems a bit unusual that a individual would have that much stuff. I just read some of the scam thread and I guess I was being a little suspicious. I apologize to Patricia if this is legitimate.
  3. I will try to locate it in my boat, never noticed it anywhere though. My unit keeps blowing a fuse, was told it needs a new motherboard. I can live without it. Too much hassle to remove .
  4. Don't forget that the depth on the rigger gauge is not real depth when trolling. Angle of the cable makes a significant change in depth. True or very close depth is : cable out x cosign of estimated angle. There are charts available, google it, or do the math and make your own.
  5. I have traded lead for made weights with Troutman, you need to make it somewhat worth his while but if you can't find molds, give him a call and maybe work something out. He lives in Watkins Glenn though, I have a place on Keuka so it wasn't a big deal for me to meet him on 14A.
  6. state park to Hammondsport by boat is about 14 or so miles, give or take. There is a launch at Jakes boat livery in Urbana according to a map. Don't know if they are for the public though, give them a call
  7. Your depth will be off and if you fish marks later, the distance to marks will be off.
  8. The west side man is Tom Barbera at East Fork
  9. Don't think so but only a guess since I haven't heard of one. You could make your own mounting brackets. I have 2 on my boat for my extra 2 home made downriggers that are about the same size as a Big Jon. Slide in, thumb screw to secure, easy removal. You could even make a bracket to fit on swivel mounts also.
  10. Where would that be , in the unit or mounted separate somewhere else?
  11. I have a ap 2000 in my boat that never worked for me, busted when I bought boat. was told it needed mother board. What is a fluxgate and if it is a separate part and easy to remove ,I will sell it to you.
  12. I have the diagram. I can text you with the picture of it, I think you'll be able to make it out. If not I can tell you what to do. Text me at 481-7148
  13. I'll check to see if I still have it. Do you still need? If not I can open one up and look at it.
  14. I agree with the easterly wind theory. He may be way out there.
  15. How much assist does that have? Fairly easy to move up and down?
  16. I had steering issues with my 19" islander using 2 bags also. They were running about even with front chairs. The boat would sway right and left continually. I lengthened the ropes so they now run even with the rear cleats and use a shorter rope on the rear loop of the bags tied to rear cleats to keep them tight to the hull. Boat tracks perfectly now.
  17. color determines age I believe.
  18. 870 Remington-many stag arms AR-15 223-3 Ruger super black hawk 44mag-3 T/C omega 50 cal. muzzy-dozens 3 different PSE compounds- couple dozen.
  19. Hemlock is loaded with bait, probably why catching the trout and lakers is tough. When ever I'm there I mark tons of bait pods mostly on the west side north end about 30-50 ft July time frame. There are lots of hooks under every pod usually. I've run cranks, drop shot bottom bouncers and they just won't hit. Very frustrating when you see so much down there. As for lakers, try pulling copper in 50-60 ft. have had some success with that in the past.
