Like the title says I have a 45 size Okuma coldwater with 200' of weighted steel and either 30lb or 50lb yellow braid backing (I can't remember the size I used). Looking for $150 + shipping or pickup in Mexico on the weekends. No issues with the reel or the line, just never find myself using this setup for some reason.

I am not 100% sure the kicker has a charging system, I assumed it did as the specs on a 15hp Pro-kicker state it has a 12amp alternator. I run alot of other electronics, Garmin 93sv, Fishawk Xd4, 2 Digitroll 10 riggers, Garmin TR-1 kicker autopilot, VHF radio. My old kicker was a 2004 9.9 Yamaha, i don't recall what it had for an alternator but I always saw 13v+ while it was running even with all my electronics on. I don't think it's possible to get this model kicker without a charging system, which makes me think there is an issue with the my motor.

I'm a Garmin guy so I cant really speak on the latest and greatest HB tech. I can tell you that for salmon trolling Lake O, I find both side and down imagining to be basically useless.

I'll take the 2 new ones. PM sent

I recently installed a new to me 2015 Mercury Pro-kicker 15hp on my boat and I don't think that this kicker is returning a charge to my batteries. I monitor voltage and am only seeing 12.5V with the kicker running and as the day goes on it slowly fades down to 12.1-12.2V and starts to trigger low-voltage alarms on my boat. When my main motor is running on the same gauges jumps to 14V+ so I know the gauge is working properly. The electric start on the kicker works fine so I know it's connected to the battery properly. Is it possible to get a Pro-kicker that has electric start but no charging system? The Model# is 1F15452EK, what should I check first?

Your bow sonar should use the built-in transducer in your trolling motor (if there is one) or you should get a mount kit to mount the transducer to your trolling motor. You won't ever be able to get down to only 2 transducers on the transom as long as you have 2 different brand sonars on the boat (HB and Garmin) and a fishawk. You would need to eliminate the Garmin or settle on 3 transducers, you could always mount the fishawk transducer on the other side of the transom. Just run your probe on the same side of the boat that your transducer is on. Networking the 2 HB units wont help you eliminate a transducer from the transom either.

30lb mono, I use Berkley Big Game.

Sonnys is hosting a Brown Trout Tournament this weekend out of Mexico, combine that with what looks to be good conditions all weekend. Expect to see a lot of boats out and not hear many ppl giving out information.

Doubt it will last very long

Still looking

Looking for 2 more to keep as spares

The Sams Pro releases are nice because they will release once a fish hits and you wont have to battle the board and fish in. OR-12 boards will handle a 7 color if you slide the weight all the way forward.

Ok, I see that. So it is a 2014 then thank you! Yup this one is there, thank you!

Anyone know where I can find an owners/installation manual for a 15hp Mercury Pro-kicker I just picked up? I'm told it is a 2014 but I can't confirm, the model number is 1F15452EK and serial number is 0R645522

Looking for (2) size 0 dipsey divers, don't really care what colors. PM me what you got.

There's lots of campgrounds on the lake, both state and private. For a slip you just need to find your closest Marina. Catfish creek has slips and trailers for rent, Olcott has several AirBnB rentals right in the Newfane Marina, some even include a free slip with a rental. For state campgrounds you have Selkirk Shores State Park and Fair Haven Beach just to name a couple.

30% off Okuma Coldwater Reels in all sizes, thought it was a pretty good deal worth passing along. I know Amazon isn't usually a place I go to looking for fishing gear so maybe some people missed it... https://www.amazon.com/Okuma-Water-Linecounter-Trolling-CW-303D/dp/B008GQ6WBG/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=FHtyM&content-id=amzn1.sym.a5eaa569-8a45-4530-84d2-2dcf8023272a&pf_rd_p=a5eaa569-8a45-4530-84d2-2dcf8023272a&pf_rd_r=EG4QHR95RGQTEVTRBXJ3&pd_rd_wg=1arC9&pd_rd_r=6ce786fb-a252-4d51-8805-b05cd0ea660f&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mi
