  1. Edited my original post and added Canadian pricing available for the North shore folks. Postage is more expensive so the #s are higher. Doing my best to get these out as cheap as possible! There's a foreign currency exchange close by, so I think I can work in Canadian $ for you, will post with more info later. Let me know if you're interested.
  2. Thanks John, good advice and great point!
  3. Just got my spoons today. Thanks!
  4. ghostrider I sent you a PM.
  5. Thanks Addict. Good advice to just roll with it.
  6. Totally get that Nautitroller. Another great tip. I have 10' dipsy rods for easy math! Lol!
  7. Sk8man, do you have better luck with peanuts or spin n glows? What's your take?
  8. Great Chad! Happy you like them.
  9. Thanks chaschut, good advice for finding out how much it could be off. And I know that even when full they're close, not necessarily spot on, more for repetition. Let's just say that the crewman may or may not have been my brother... there was no swift jab to the throat... and I'll be seeing how far off that dipsy set up is before the season! Lol! And that's a great trick G-Daddy! Thanks! I will totally try it. Do you think it'll work with wire?
  10. You got it. I have a decent amount still. PM me your details and I'll get them out to you.
  11. I ordered weights from Bikinibottom as well. Haven't used them yet, but can't wait. Here's the pattern I went with: He makes different #s. Mine are 10s.
  12. So I know that a line counter is most accurate when the spool is full. Let me give you a hypothetical situation... Situation: As I'm setting lines, a crew member decides to set a dipsy on the opposite side, shuts the clicker off, opens the bail, and the dipsy splashes down, the spool over rotates and bird nest! After a quick punch in the throat for shutting the clicker off (as was told to me by a faithful member here, if anyone ever shuts a clicker off), I get to work untangling, cutting, and reattaching terminal tackle. The rod is ready to fish again, but I lost a decent amount of line and the spool isn't full. Question: Where is the error on the counter? I'm thinking if there is less line, the wraps are tighter and the counter will run faster and read more feet out than are actual line out. So I would want to set farther on the counter. Anybody agree? Disagree? Thoughts?
  13. Pm sent
  14. I forgot to mention that postage is included in the price. I updated the original post.
  15. Ok. Thanks Legacy. I did my due diligence and found out from Chad what he thought, and he said go for it. So I'll wait for approval. Thanks again.
  16. Welcome! There is some much great info here! I grew up fishing for perch and smallies on Lake O. I have in the past few years transitioned into walleye, trout and salmon. I guys and gals here are great, any question for anywhere will get you good advice. Happy you're a part of it! Tight lines
  17. I posted LOU stickers for sale and the post is now gone or restricted. I PMed Chad for permission to make some lou stickers and sell them to make my costs and time back. He granted me permission, I made them, then posted it and it was shortly taken down. I have no problem with the admin or moderators of this site checking through things and making sure all is good, but I got no notification that it was restricted or taken down, or was shot a question about it. At this point, with $ out, I'd just like to know. Sorry for the rant. I love and appreciate the value of this site. -Luke
  18. Interested in 2... My cousin is in ballston spa, pretty sure that's closer than me! Unless you can ship.
  19. Display your involvement in this amazing community with LOU oval stickers on your vehicles, trailers, or boats! I made a small run of LOU oval stickers. Something in me wanted one, so I thought I'd make some and offer them up. Costs are: $2.50 per sticker or 3 for $6 (Price includes postage) They measure 6" wide by 4" high Let me know if you're interested. I do have a PayPal account or you can mail me $ or a check. *Canadian pricing also available, pm for details. Tight lines! -Luke
  20. When I get to my boards upstate, I'll post some pics with directions for rigging the tattle flag for cheap. I ran mine out of the box for a couple years... Just harder to see a light strike or small fish on em. If it's big, you'll be able to tell. Happened to see a smallmouth jump 100' behind the board once! It was a little rough, so hard to tell.
  21. Welcome! What's your home port?
  22. I have to back Fleet up on this one... Spent time in a Lund of the same size and the amount of storage, room, and well of this Tracker far exceed the Lund. I've fished on the Reel Happy and as stated... it's a machine... helps when you set it up like Fleet, but it's seriously no joke. Hoping for the new hull for you. Take it easy and Happy New Year to ya.
