    Auto-stop? I'm not interested but first person that is will ask that question lol
  2. FishingFool34
    Yeah I know I got my other 2 pairs from Franks... I was looking for a cheap used spare/back up set.

    Yes trolling the bay, outside of the couple boats in the river and at the mouth I didn't see anyone doing anything other than trolling.
  4. FishingFool34
    still looking...

    Yeah dash unit with SI ducer on the transom. But I was hoping to run the ipilot link features from the dash if possible. They are separate cords off the terrova, seems like I should be to just use the us2 on the bow and other cord to dash for ipilot.

    Linking Humminbird units I'm getting ready to swap out my lowrance units for 2 humminbird units (one bow, one dash). I'm doing this mainly because I recently installed a terrova with iPilot Link. Here I was I want to happen... dash unit connected to terrova for ipilot link functions. Bow unit connected to us2 in terrova for sonar. Is this possible without setting up an entire Ethernet network? Im not sure if you can split the ipilot and us2 functions to separate units. I don't want to set up an Ethernet network atleast right now. I will run all us2/ipilot features off just the bow unit if I have to.

    Just left sackets harbor today... launch in town is closed due to high water, had to launch at the Dexter launch in black river by the dam. Ramp to the dock is underwater but docks themselves are not. Knee boots and you will be fine to launch there (limited parking just fyi). Fishing was slow but the few bites we got were really nice fish, no browns but caught 4 eyes in the 7lb+ range with the biggest coming in at 31" and 11lbs (personal best)... ended up going 10/14 on eyes over the 3 days we were there (all eyes were released). Goodluck we had a blast!

    Chaumont Bay Walleye Advice I have a trip planned in two weeks to Chaumont Bay to fish mainly for walleye. I have never fished there so other than looking over navionics maps I really don't know the area at all. Looking for any advice on where/what to fish there. I have a PB walleye of 7lb 1oz (Oneida Lake) and am really hoping to beat it that weekend, as I have heard/read that Chaumont Bay is one of the best (if not the best) big walleye places to fish in NY.I am very familiar with walleye fishing and have the gear to fish for them just about every way there is. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Fish307 has the best prices you will find on these trust me I was in same situation as you. I think theirs are in $170 range but it beats $400+ for new riggers. Very hard to find used motors for these, if the motor is still good likely the whole rigger still good.

    I'm good guys, I honestly don't really need it thanks though.

    Id be all over that if you were closer... dam

    Those look like short shallows to me

    Checkout Cabelas they are having a sale on all fishing gear right now... Their depthmaster rods are great and can't beat the price when they are on sale. They have a 8'6" ML rod that fits what your looking for, for $32!

    Gander is now offering an additional "10% off sale" on everything left (still a good amount of stuff left too). Just FYI the 10% is in addition to the 20% off sale but don't get confused and think its now 30% off! Its 20% off then 10% off the discounted price... so technically 28% off lol.

    In case anyone was wondering it did work! Add a Cannon Mag 20 board to a Cannon Mag 10, find a place on the motor to add a ground wire and now you have auto stop!
  19. FishingFool34
    Pictures of how the new riggers are setup... no circuit board in there at all. I think I can use one of those bolts near the breaker as a ground too.
  20. FishingFool34
    Pulled apart the new TS Mag 10s... no board of any kind in there... power to right to switch to motor to breaker and that is it. I'm thinking I can just swap the entire setups out (switch/board/breaker) and put it right in the TS riggers. This will also save me the hassle of swapping out battery plug-ins as they are slightly different between the two riggers. Only thing I will have to do is find a place to connect the green ground wire on the new motors. Makes sense in my head lol

    Add auto stop to downriggers? So I had a post before trying fix my old cannon mag 10 downrigger motor. Well I had no luck. Instead of buying a new motor for $150 I found a good deal on another set of electric mag 10 tournament series riggers. Only bad part is they don't have auto stop. my old mag 10s had been upgraded with mag 20 boards for the reason of adding auto stop (I'm assuming, previous owner did it). Is there any reason why I can't swap these boards into my new mag 10s and then have auto stop on them? Below are pics of my old mag 10s with the mag 20 boards in them. Looks to me like the green ground wire may have been added by the previous owner? (Different hardware and different gauge wire then the rest of the connections)

    No need for a backup... I'll cya at 530!

    Chaumont Bay opening of walleye, not many other places in NY your gonna find a higher concentration of trophy size walleye.

    As far as I know only the one in New Hartford is closing for NY stores. There's a list of the ones they announced were closing if you google search. 32 stores nationwide I believe, all "underperforming" stores. Lot competition in the Utica area honestly... 3 Walmarts, Bass Pro, Runnings, Dicks, 2 Herb Philipsons, multiple local bait/tackle shops. Honestly the Gander in new Hartford was terrible anyways, prices were outrageous. The 20% off closing sale barely made it worth shopping there.

    I'm actually looking for the exact same thing, pair of single tubes with the clamp... If the OP is all set and someone had an extra pair I would be interested... pm me. EDIT: never mind I'm all set too!
