    I like your floor cover! What is it and where to buy it?... Nice job on the fish! I'm headed up for Sunday / Monday at Olcott. Sent from my Pixel using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    It's actually pretty simple if you think about it... You have 50' of line drag behind the slide diver pulling the back of it down flatter in the back. At the same time that changes the dig or bite of the front, in effect lifting it.. Kind of like stepping on a shovel with your foot while it's laying on the ground. When you do that the handle will point up.. Thus the diver points up when weight is applied to the back of it. ... To really prove the point of adding pull and angle, hook a deep crank bait to the back at any length from a diver or dipsey and watch it become a surf board on the surface... Now we can all have beer!

    Nice job! We ran up there Sunday morning from Geneva, Oh. and fished the afternoon until blown off Sunday and then Monday.. Had a nice run and did well on basically the same stuff.. Although we had a mountain dew color spin doctor with a atomic glow silver and lime green ( don't remember the actual name) that was very hot behind the down rigger. our 300 coppers were week, but dipseys and riggers worked well.. If you see black Starcraft Fishmaster that says twinmotors.net on the side, say hello! I share info, even if it's bad...

    In my opinion, with 100 inch beam I like 19 degree rake (sharp V) it is the best riding Aluminum boat I've ever been in.. I've been in a lot! I would compare the ride to a 25' glass boat on Lake Erie. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    This Fin will help your handling issues. It will level the boat while on plane. (trimmed up) this is my 09 fishmaster 196 with 150 etech and four batteries in the back. KEEP YOUR BATTERIES OUT OF THE FRONT in FISHMASTERS!!! structure frame will break and it loosens rivets like crazy!! Sent from my Nexus 5X using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    I had a 99 fishmaster before the 09 and had the same problem... It's lake Erie and a lot of trailering I think that does it. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Thank you for service! I have an 09 fishmaster 196 and it leaks like a siv also. I tried gluv-it on the rivets and it just cracked and popped. I currently have it on my lift Calking all the seams with 3m marine caulk 5200 and then I am going to use bedliner spray from sem paint products on the external hull. Wish me luck! I love the boat, just wish it was built better! P. S. Never put batteries up front, the weight on the sub floor flexes and pulls the rivets out of the hull... FYI.

    I put fins on my 150 etech on my 196 fishmaster and took care of it. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    If you have hydrolic steering I would suggest the Lowrance unit they came out with last year. I have a generation 2 HDS plotter/finder that controls it. I paid less than a grand for the autopilot and installed myself. It runs off the GPS and doesn't matter if it's rough water! Sent from my Nexus 5X using Lake Ontario United mobile app

    Hello from Geneva on Lake Erie... I was told by a freind that this was a good place to watch and learn. I did a trip to Olcott a couple weeks ago and got hooked! I have a Starcraft fishmaster 196 with all the stuff for deep water trolling, so I figured I would give it a shot. We did ok, but looking to tweak the program...
