Thanks for the advice. Is 4.3” still to small? Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Hey guys, Don’t get out more than 4/5 times a year. Dad and I have an older boat and looking to replace the depth finder. Looks like the Garmin Striker 4 is a great value. Anyone have any experience with it? Does it register your downrigger balls? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

is lot 4 sold?

Thanks for all the advice guys, I really appreciate it. Good luck fishing

Haha thank you, I will first look to fix the counters before marking the cable. Thanks for all the advice

That's good to know, thank you

No, have an older fish finder.

Les - thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. I do have the counters on the mag 10's but they have been giving me some issues (not staying aligned with the gear so they are very inaccurate). I am familiar with the issue of blowback and was looking into a Fish Hawk TD ($149.99) which is much cheaper and would allow me to compare my depth with the one on the Fish Hawk. Little more work and math involved than the x4 but still would would give me a rough idea of the blowback given all the factors you mentioned. Do you see any issue with spray painted markings on the cable for a more accurate measure of how much cable is in the water?

Hey guys, Still new to salmon fishing and don’t get out more than a few times a year (looking to get out more). I have older mag10s and am not looking to buy a fish hawk this year. But would really like to be more accurate with my ball depth. Was thinking about spray painting marks every 5 feet on the cable. I would start marks at 50ft and end at 200 ft. I fish out of Henderson and haven’t seen the need for anything over 200ft. I know it sounds like a lot but I’m young and don’t mind the labor/hassle of counting if it will save me some money. Let me know your opinion/suggestions or concerns with my idea. Thanks

Replacing Line Counter on Marlin Electric HP Hey guys, I have a Marlin Electric HP downrigger and I need to replace the line counter. I do not want to remove the spool (which means disassembling the entire downrigger) but I might have. I could be wrong though. Any ideas on how to do it?

I know this may be a little cheaper than the wahoo industries one but seemed to get good reviews and I only fish 8-10 times a year. The price is half that of the wahoo one. Any thoughts?
