For sure needs to be strapped down. Placement towards the bow helps mitigate the weight of the trolling motor on the stern.

I've got a '97 19.6 Fishmaster. I've located a big 12v gel battery in the floor storage in front of the bow seat for riggers, and a 12 v dual purpose in the stern port side.

Location?

Great thread. From my Dad many years ago. He was trolling n on the east side as he usually did. Off to his port he noticed a loon acting weird. As he passed his rigs (thermocline, thanks Dad) started bobbing. He grabbed the rod,brought it in and of course the loon started moving. Eventually Dad pulled in a rod/reel combo (that I use to this day) he pulled the line in as close as he could and cut it. Anyway got a bunch but Dad was there.

I will agree with chrome slayer. I shoot a savage with smokeless and the powerbelts produce fine accuracy but I have had dismal expansion results on 3 deer. I no longer use them.

A bit off topic but my neighbor and I recently planted a dozen chestnuts down in Seneca cnty. I planted the collossul (sp) chestnut out of I think washington st.supposed to be blight resistant. My kids will find out.

I heard you out of towners skipped over to Cayuga Lake where you can catch them with a Micky D French Fry. You heard us locals have them scoped out. You're right. 🤣🤣🤣

I'm also having trouble finding a place to buy a gill net (not a cast net) that meets NY DEC regs (max. 25', max 200 square feet, max 1" mesh).
Do any of you know where such a net can be purchased?
thanks,
dre
I'll check in my barn, used to have one. If I can find it you can have it. I'm in the Ovid area.

Wwwwwhat a second. Is that Cayuga Lake???

Thanks for the update. An accident waiting to happen.They are not illuminated at night. Best to avoid the area....
They have been there the last couple weeks... Also, they have been consistently placing orange and yellow ones on about 15 fow consistently on the west side. Getting quite annoying. I'm tempted to remove as they are not marked at all, thus not a permitted buoy.

Was on the east side of the barge this afternoon and came upon two good sized buoys a couple hundred yards apart. Anyone know anything about them? If they are out there after dark I hope they are illuminated.

Wiring and Batteries
in This Old Boat
Posted
Mine is flat enough to fit a large battery box surrounded by Styrofoam. Plenty of places to attach ss hooks to attach rubber bungees to strap battery down.
