Cannon Mag-10 downrigger is not auto rewinding.
KJ Louise replied to BreakingBass's topic in Tackle and Techniques
Sounds like your board is gone, do you get a funny smell from the housing unit. Se thing happened to me last season during the fall LOC. Boards are about 75$ from fish307.com. Also it's a quick easy exchange. Steve Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United -
Salmon Country Rates?
KJ Louise replied to KJ Louise's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Yes they are, I was down in the Merrimack over weekend and picked up 17 stripers all were short tho only 27" and below. Live bait on the bottom. Sunday there were 12-15' rollers coming in. Talk about a small fish in a big pond and my boat is 27' long. I'm in search of blue fish now, need shark bait... Lol Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United -
Salmon Country Rates?
KJ Louise replied to KJ Louise's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Jason, Thanks but we have a place to stay up at rainbow shore rd, I'm also checking out lighthouse marina which is real close to camp but more expensive. How's the fishing? Dad and his buddy are headed up in July over the 4th to play for 4 days. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United -

So I read all the info on extending booms! Thanks LOU!!! After reading I ran out to HD and grabbed a 10' stick of 1-3/8 top rail brought it home and disassembled my rigger.... The remove the first boom section, pre drilled the set screws for the new section.. Had too gentle grind down the insert ends about 3" up the pipe after that it was slick going, now I have a 72" extendable boom to play with as soon as the ice melts. I know everyone said by galvy but the black vynall pipe is perfect since now I don't have to paint anything and it's SHINNY Thanks again fellas Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I have them mounted on custom ash boards which are mounted directly into my swivel gimbals. Strength shouldn't be an issue with the brackets, I'm a worried about the added length on the body of the rigger. I don't plan on running anything heavier than a 10lb weight anyways. My mag 10's are adjustable booms so my plan is remover the 1st section closest to the body and adding my length there. Only issue I'm finding is locating a tube with structural strength and same size as the cannon tubes. 1.25OD with 1.05Id. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Has anyone extended there cannon mag 10 booms? I'm running an outboard with a Gil bracket so in order to run a chute rigger I need to extend over the main motor. I don't have the beam of a 10' so off setting the rigger to port isn't really an option. Any advise would be great. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Willy-C, I really appreciate the Pic of the KJ under Power. I love that boat too, but after being out there for the whole week I'm really leaning on wifey to allow me to purchase a vessel with a 10' beam. She's just to narrow and light for some of the heavy salmon chop Lake O provides. We had out share of Mishaps this week, Tangled 2 copper 300' lines, Burnt out a motor in one of the Mag 10's and the Toggle switch on the other only allowed the rigger to come up. ( At Least it still worked) Kind of Glad I brought the Manual Cannon's as Back UP!! Well were home Now and looking back at our week....WHAT A LEARNING EXPERIENCE !!!! To finish up the Report Thursday fished from Sun up to Sundown Boated 4 fish all day Started at Alcan Point in 350' FOW, Fish 1 came on a Green Flasher with Hammer Fly while setting out the steel. approx 150' out at the time. 15lbs KIng Fish 2 came on DW spoon (Blue Whale) 75' down on Center Rigger 24" SteelHead Fish 3 came on White Flasher with Green Meat/Head combo 185' on rigger. 20" Atlantic Salmon Fish 4 came on same white flasher and Meat combo. 13lbs KING Friday was Hot and SLOW FISHING we trolled from 6am to 4pm with only 1 fish landed it was 17lbs king on Green F/F Combo Saturday Morning we decided to fish close at reports where hitting the radio Friday night of the fish were coming down the shore line out by the Dunes, we trolled the 125' to 150' line along the shore line. We managed to get knocked off 7 times!! Ya for us, only issue was they were all too small to keep except 1 fish a 13lb king using a White Flasher and Meat Combo. Looks like the Fish have finally arrived close to shore, but whats the fun in just fishing were everyone else is. We had a great time out on the BIG POND, we travelled approx 250 Miles on the water in 6 days according to the GPS Track. Salmon Country Marina was Awesome along with Woody's Bait and Tackle, All Seasons Sports, and Screwy Lewy's in fairfield. (Stayed open after Hours in order to get parts for our Riggers) Thank You to Everyone who Helped us get information about the lake and what to use. We will be back in the spring to challange the Brown's along the Shoreline. I'll post Pics in the next reply. Steve KJ Louise

Well I'm finally able to post using the ponderosa wifi. Arrived Saturday morning around 9am. Lunched the boat at Salmon Country and moved it into its slot. Rigged everything with Green on Green. Decided to run the Chanel a few times to mark it for when we run early in the am but seeing the convoy of charter boats I didn't need too. Sunday morning- wind blow hard enough to make my 8yr old turn green. Decided to turn back round and head for the dock. Got a chance to hook up with Jason on the fish fighter he was able to provide some very valuable info on tactics and speed and water temp. Monday morning headed out with the fleet started in the 150 FOW area realized that copper is for people who have wide beam boats or tons of experience on Lake O. Tangle copper with steel and rigger. 300' Blood Run is junk! We only landed 1 small king on green 11" pro troll and atommik hammer fly. We were able to release her safely. She came on a Rigger 137' down over 160. Tuesday morning Went out to 250' FOW marked tons of bait and streakers. We landed brown on a DW wonder bread and fly down 70'. Also got a 16lb king on blue DW spinny with white fly. Into the smoker she went Wednesday morning Headed out to the 500' on a tip from Jason. We landed 4 fish. Small Atlantic on green on green 300' on steel 16 lbs king on same set up in same area. 26lbs king on black DW and green fly down 174 on rigger 9lbs steelie on same combo at 137' down over 479' FOW Now the storm is here we might need to start over again in the am. Thanks to everyone who are making this trip fun for us. Here are some photos. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Jack, Thanks I appreciate the update on the lake. Were going to be in the same area, hopefully the weather pattern changes the fish pattern. Ouch on the gas price, I might just fill up here in NH then at 3.43$ / gallon it could get real expensive at the marina for 125 gallons. Look forward to spending time on your pond with my son and dad I'll keep the radios on scan to pick up any information that will help us out. If anyone's out on Sunday thru Saturday give me a shout. I'll do the same if I recognize the boat name Steve Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

When I installed my X4D I wanted to test it as well so I dropped in a 5 gallon pal attached to my rigger cable. Worked like a champ. Even gave water temp and depth as instructed. Like others have posted it needs to completely submerged in order to work Steve Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
