  2. PM sent. I keep my boat in Sackets and would be glad to show you the ropes. There are some good folks around our area, and i've taken several army guys out new to the area. My wife is active duty at Drum as well and i was in similar shoes when I moved here in 2015.
  3. nice! thanks. A bit too early and a little out of my range for now, but good use of space.
  4. Would be interested in seeing pics of the whole rig if possible. Was looking to buy and outfit a similar boat after this season, I'd like to see how you have it all set up.
  5. A lot of guys pick port side for kicker because driver is usually on starboard. I have a swim ladder on port, so i picked starboard. It does list some, but not too terribly bad.
  6. I really like Dexter-russell sani-safe for small-medium sized fillet knives (walleye, browns, perch, etc) , and bubba blade 12" for kings. I've been on the same knives for the last few years and they havent let me down.
  7. If not interested in my used one, I did find this one too... http://www.tacklehaven.com/depth-raider-antenna-dr-1020/ Says it should work with Depth Raider and Moor. It certainly looks the same as a moor.
  8. These are the best klinchers I found for the subtroll. http://www.tacklehaven.com/depth-raider-probe-klincher-kit-part-dr-1016/ I would order a few in case you need to change out or switch around your coated cable. I run a subtroll and I bought a whole subtroll set up on ebay last year for a spare probe and spare parts. I'd be willing to part with the antenna, dont know what they sell for though. PM me an offer? Also located in watertown/ sackets
  9. Prop Healer in oswego does good work. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  10. Congrats to all who killed! This guy fooled me yesterday morning. I fooled him today at 0630 though. Black River, NY.
  11. I had the boat out in BRB on tuesday night, I was seeing surface temps as high as 46 towards black river and 42 and dropping further out towards the main lake.
  12. They put a lot of strain on the gunnels. Make sure the baseplates are solid, backed, or in good tracks. I run board snubbers on amish outfitters boards for added strain relief when the board hit waves and bounce. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. Yessir on the backer plate. I used a piece of 4" x 8" or so 1/4" aluminum stock . I dont have trim tabs, but this bracket would definitely get in the way of them. Before I bought it, I did find this thread on another board from a guy with a similar boat to mine and his trim tab fix with the same bracket. If I ever did get tabs, I would have to go this route. Bracket is unique in that its two piece, so the trim tab ram can be installed inside the bracket. https://keywestboatsforum.com/kicker-mount-211-dc-2020dc-t2489.html
  14. I have this one: http://www.discountmarinesupplies.com/Motor_Mounts_Accessory-Panther_550027_Fixed_Outboard_Motor_Bracket.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwwPfVBRBiEiwAdkM0HewzfBw6hiQIJ9T0--C2ZEWz0WRA3nL98cXsDleVFM_qsgdLMMvcphoCyqMQAvD_BwE I wanted a fixed position bracket for a heavy T9.9. This one has a few different holes to set the kicker higher or lower to work with your transom. My wellcraft has more a euro transom, so this worked well. If you have a straight transom, I dont think this still would work, as there is not much set back. I dont have a great pic of it, but this will give you an idea.
  15. They definitely help, but not required. Last year i ran a 124 mm dipsey on 2 and a 107 mm diver on 3, both on wire, both on 9 foot rods on the same side with no issues. As stated above, keep the boat straight and deploy carefully. Inside shorter and deeper, outside higher and longer Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. I saw that today on clist too! I figured you’d have sniffed it out by now Matt. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  17. I fish a few weekends a year out of Erie PA, not far from the NY line. I’ve always fished out of my boat or a buddy’s, but we usually stay at Green Roof Inn in Girard PA about 15 minutes from the public Walnut Creek launch. Great facilities there. Just booked today for June 29 - July 2nd. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. I run mag 10 STX's, no issues at all the past three years and really like them. I run a 12lb shark on port side and 15 lb on starboard side to make up for probe blowback on sb side. only issue I had was my own fault. auto stop stopped the ball where it should have, then i hit the switch to move it up some more and accidentally broke the terminator off at the pulley, losing ball and release. Luckily it wasnt the probe rigger. I have since learned my lesson in manually overriding autostop. Goes to show how strong the motors are, and to set clutch tension appropriately.
  19. Absolutely Stoneam, I was just talking to my fishing buddy about that. This year may be the best we will ever see in our lives. Already planning on trailering from Sackets Harbor to walnut creek for two long weekends this summer, maybe more depending on the kings/ lake conditions Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  20. I switched all my diver rigs to wire last year, didnt hurt my eye numbers at all on the few days we fished lake Erie with them. Then again, walleye numbers were unreal on Erie last season and just about anything we put in the water got hit. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  21. I have about a dozen cv 30d’s for rigger and divers and a handful of 55L’s for junk lines and have had very few issues with them. I fish a few times a week from may-sept, only issues I had were one stripped pinion gear and one bad clicker. All got tuna’s drag upgrades. I’ve been meaning to get my hands on a DS, should be a great diver reel. The regulars are a little slow when clearing lines with a ton of wire out. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United
  22. Bow is sold, thanks for the interest. Happy hunting!
  23. Had some interest, but nothing solid yet. Price down to $450, or make an offer.
  24. #1 - atommik pro/am UV - all conditions, any time of day #2 - atommik stud fly - overcast or morning
  25. 2017 season was definitely quantity over quality. Still pulled some nice-sized fish. 1. 59 lb king box solo fishing 2. Lake erie walleye haul (killed 114 fish over 4 days with two boats and a bunch of guys) 3. Biggest king of the year (only 25 lbs)
