    I have run 2 of these the last two years with no problems whatsoever. If you are used to running the older style cannons you will be shocked as to how fast these newer ones are. I use 12lb and 14lb weights with mine.

    22" amish outfitters trolling bags are what you need.

    I just received my 14 lb weights from him and they are very nice. Would not hesitate to order more.

    I have 8 of the Okuma Dead Eye open water trolling rods that I use as board/leadcore rods. I have the 8'6" telescoping model that's breaks down to 7' which is great for storage. The action is perfect for running inline boards. https://www.fishusa.com/product/Okuma-Dead-Eye-Trolling-Rods

    Well stated.

    Your right, poor choice of words on my part so i changed my previous post to reflect that. Thank you for your in depth explanation of the difference between the two, something I was too lazy to type out.

    I put on a small amount of mono on the convectors so that the wire doesn't slip on the reel, about 30 ft or so. My Tekotas have a small stud on the spool so there is no need for mono on those.

    The weighted steel is similar (certainly not equivalent) to copper that most people use. The 19 strand wire is the backing. There are several YouTube videos that show some of the benefits of using it compared to regular copper.

    I really like the versatility to be able to cover the water column with one rod. It works really well on walleye on Erie in the summer when the walleye are deep. I ended up rigging another identical rod recently because it worked so well.

    I'm using a convector 45 reel which has 750 ft of 19 strand and 200 ft of weighted steel.

    I use the Okuma GLT copper/leadcore rods with the large stainless guides on them with no issues. You don't need roller rods for the weighted steel.

    I use uni knot to small spro swivel then uni knot the leader to the spro, I have not had that connection fail yet. I realize that the lead will poke out a little on the leadcore but that has not been an issue.

    I have a total of 30 cut bait heads in 4 different colors for sale. The green ones all glow. I bought these new and couldn't use them with the MC Rocket baits that I use. $35.00 shipped. 716-673-6614.

    Agree with the Cannon 10 STX, mine are only 2 years old and are rated for max 20 lbs. Like egoody says they are fast and do bounce quite a bit when they stop at the surface. Other than that minor complaint I am completely satisfied with them.

    Mine are mounted about 6 inches from the rear of the tracks. Definitely use the tracks for everything, they are already reinforced underneath, and make removing and adding equipment easy. My cannon riggers came with the swivel bases attached and I mounted them on 4" pedestal bases like these. http://store.cannondownriggers.com/products/325078/Aluminum_Fixed_Base_Downrigger_Pedestal

    Any long shaft kicker will work fine. I agree with the swivel bases for riggers. I have 2 cannon mag 10 ST on mine that I run at a 45 degree angle near the back of the boat. I do not usually extend my booms and I figure they are about 24" long collapsed.

    750 ft of 19 strand and 200 ft of steel is what I have on mine and it is filled perfectly. I hand measured this in the yard so I would know exactly how much I had on it.

    Marina is called Holiday Harbor at Chadwick Bay, 30 Lakeshore Drive East, dunkkrk,NY 14048. The launch and harbor are in Chadwick Bay in Dunkirk. the Clarion Hotel is a stone's throw away from launch.

    I mounted a spring clamp onto a wooden base I made for the fish finder. I then attached the transducer to the end of a 1"x1" piece of aluminum square stock about 20" long. I then just put the transducer down the edge of the hole and clamp it at the desired depth. I can adjust it up or down as the ice thickness changes. Works great and didn't cost more than 10 bucks total and I got to use a spare fish finder I had.

    One thing no one mentioned so so far is so far is the micro leadcore lines (tufline or bloodrun). You can use them and have a lot more backing on the reel if you are concerned about that. You can easily fit 10 colors on an Okuma 30 size reel. Okuma makes high speed convectors also.

    SOLD SOLD SOLD I have 4 total Shimano TDR medium heavy rods for sale. 2 rods are 8' and 2 rods are 9'. 15.00 each. I could ship all four for 20.00 in a rod tube but would prefer to have them picked up. These are 2 years old and are in great shape. I am only selling them because I upgraded to Talora rods. 716-673-6614.

    I know that both my yamaha F200 and F9.9 self drain after winterizing. No need to worry about the thermostat in either of them.
  24. Pursuit 2670
    In my case it would be 1000 ft of 19 strand then 25' leader then dipsey. I'm kind of leery of the extra connections with the leader though.

    https://bloodruntackle.com/wire-line-spooling-tips/ Anyone else use this setup when using diver rods? I was getting ready to spool up my diver rods with Torpedo 19 strand and ran across this tip. It's seems to like this would take care of a few issues when using wire line.
