I have also caught chubs while ice fishing in lakes in Maine, typically when using worms for brook trout in close. I haven't caught emeralds before, but have used them for bait a lot. Actually, I prefer them to smelts because they are more lively and my catch rate is better. Although, some days they only want smelt!
It is not a smelt, smelt have an adipose fin. This looks like it could be a chub. Check to see if the mouth is on the ventral portion of the fish (facing downwards below the mid line).
I prefer to have a bead chain swivel between the main line and leader, then a strong snap at the end of the leader to spoon or tie directly with a loop knot for plugs
I'm interested, can you send some pics. Do you have all the necessary wiring and parts needed to install?

Would it interface with an older Raymarine c120 head unit?
I am also interested in the Raymarine Sport Pilot you have for sale. Do you still have that as well?
I would take both the sport pilot and swivel base if these items are still available.
Let me know your PP information and I can send payment.
Rusty,
I am interested in your Cannon DR base. I have a trailer at Salmon Country and should be there from April 29 through May 2nd. If you could meet me there during that time we can save on shipping...I can do payment via PP if you would take 30 bucks for the base?
