18" x 9" Mayhem wheels in 6 x 5.5 (139.7) bolt pattern with a 0 offset, wheels are gloss black with machined accents. Tires are 305/60/18 Nitto Terra Grappler G2 with maybe 7k miles on them TPMS Sensors installed and included. Wheels and tires were new May 2017 and cost nearly $2000. Wheels are flawless and tires have no patches or plugs and were rotated every 3k miles. They were taken off and stored before winter and I recently sold the truck and bought a Ram which these will not fit. Asking $1400 picked up in the Utica-Rome area. Would consider a trade for a 4 stroke kicker motor -
For Rent Cottage rental outside Sackets Harbor
FishingFool34 replied to greenboatluke's topic in Classifieds - Buy, Sell, Trade or Rent
Been here twice so far and a few weeks away from my 3rd visit... beautiful cottage, quiet neighbor, close to multiple launches, has all the amenities you could want. 10 minute boat ride from some great walleye or salmon fishing, Chaumont Bay and Black River are right around the corner so if the wind picks up so you can still get out and fish. First time I went I had never fished the area before... Luke drew me a map and put me on my personal best walleye (My profile Picture) cant go wrong staying here! -
Auto-Stop Riggers with braid

Auto-Stop Riggers with braid
FishingFool34 replied to FishingFool34's topic in Tackle and Techniques
I run pancake weights already. -
I know that switching to braid will cause the autostop feature on my cannon downriggers to stop working. I’m looking to possibly switch to braid to lessen the blowback I’m currently getting. I run older Mag 10s and they are only rated for 10lb weights max, which I run but still get significant blowback. With no auto stop will the riggers still “auto lift” with one push on the switch? What happens when the weights reach the stopper? Will the motor keep reeling and possibly break the rigger or the line unless I shut it off? Seems more convenient to just stay with wire, but worth asking before I write off the braid.

Braid Color? - (I know, I know...)
FishingFool34 replied to Netbender's topic in Tackle and Techniques
I ran braid with flouro leaders on my walleye rigs and run the standard green, but I run yellow brad as backing on my leadcore/copper setups. Like the yellow for visibilty, but leadcore is multiple colors and doesn't seem to bother the fish so I would say it doesn't matter with long leads. -

The mods from bloodrun are moving the weight forward, changing clip point on rear from top of board to bottom (newer boards already have this done from factory) and finally angling the front clip bracket up. Use a heat gun and bend the front bracket so the clip points up in the air instead of parallel with the water. I run red clips front front and rear on mine never had an issues with them. Have to double wrap them when clipping in braid though. -
Trolling with electric?
FishingFool34 replied to skinny420's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
I troll for walleye all the time with my trolling motor. Speed and conditions play a huge roll in how long you can troll for. On a normal day I'm trolling at 1.8-2.2 at 50-60% power on my motor and can do 6ish hours on my 24v Terrova with ipilot Link. I run 2 29 series batteries (I don't know the specifics off top of my head) but they are top of the line walmart batteries lol, roughly $90-100 each. You will prolly get more duration/power if you bumped up to 31 group AGM batteries, but you're talking almost triple the price of conventional batteries too. You would have a very tough time on Lake O trying to use a TM to get up to salmon speeds in any kind of wind/current imo. I can't comment on a 36v other than to say if you can afford it... get it, you can always turn down the power. You could prolly get away with a co-pilot motor but I would recommend iPilot, Link is great but you need specific electronics and map card to utilize everything. -
Planner board
FishingFool34 replied to Brendan greisch's topic in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?
Not sure how to interpret this question... Yes you can use planner boards in the morning for trout without leadcore. This is where proof reading your posts come in handy, I feel like you meant to ask something more/different... -

I started with big boards for walleye and honestly hated them. I ended up selling it all and going with inlines, granted that was before I got the salmon fever and now wish I kept them to pull coppers. But for walleye they are hard to beat (great for spring browns too), add a set of clip on weights and you can pinpoint just about any depth you want for walleye. I would highly recommend the tattle flag kits also, not so much for telling when a fish is on but for telling when something isn't running right (small fish, weeds, fouled lure). Here's the bloodrun link, and a link to the best price if you decide to buy new boards https://bloodruntackle.com/inline-planer-board-modifications/ https://www.franksgreatoutdoors.com/off-shore-combo-bag.html -

I run offshore inline boards and needed to modify them to pull anything over 5 colors or they wouldn't run right. I can pull 8 colors (haven't tried a full 10 on board) or 300 copper but just barely after modding them. Checkout Bloodrun's website for tips on how to mod them. Offshore makes a larger inline board that I haven't tried but heard good things about. -
I believe you just flip it over and it will send them out the other way. I couldn't tell you how far, I've never used them, just know what they are for.
-
attach them above your downrigger balls and they will swing them out to the sides further. Mainly used by ppl running 3 or more riggers.
