  1. Getting there.... Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Graphs mounted. Troll master mounted. Kicker mounted. Pass seat mounted. Going to need another steering rod. My old one from my last kicker is not long enough. Again, I'm tired !! Bed, then baseball, then boat. Sunday is closing in.... Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. Check out the Chinook divers. I'll admit I only ran them on one trip but they ran great and dive perfect. Made in Rochester NY. I bought the smallest size and ran them on a #3 setting. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Wanted the 72 but found a deal on the 60" I couldn't pass up. After dropping it down yesterday I think it will be well over 1' in the water if not 2'+. If there's some serious chop and it starts coming out I'll just have to run kicker. I mainly got it for the auto pilot feature and the spot lock anchor mode, for when I take the kids jigging.

  5. Motorguide xi5, gps/sonar, 60" 24v Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  6. Lots of good stuff !! Looking good ! And I'm not certain I'm fit for a full time boat Reno job, but if you think of a catchy name, I'll consider a partnership. Lol. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  7. Electric on. Kicked my butt. Lots of rusty nuts and bolts on bow rails. I liked em but they had to go. Had high hopes for another long night, but I was up early after turkey's and put in a day's work too... Drill battery died and I took it as a sign to pack up. Tomorrow is another day Also had a suprise visitor over to inspect....always good to meet other members. I had to be easy to spot. 20' boat in a 15' garage Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  9. Wiring, done. Charger hooked up and doing work ! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  10. Trying to keep it local Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  11. Hoping for something local to buffalo area. Budget is low after boat build but I need to have an extra set on the boat, just in case. As long as they match, I'm not overly picky with style. Try tru trac style, torpedo's, sharks, etc. Don't want pancakes though. Lmk what you have and how much. Thanks !! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Honda is ready for trollmaster. Lower unit oil, oil change, plugs, impeller and gaskets... Fired on first pull. Ran like a top and pee'd water like it was ready to pop the tube off !!! Love it. Gonna try and get a bunch more done tonight as well. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  13. Wiring... Done. Just need to zip tie everything and tidy it up, tighten down all connections and coat with grease. Cut/routered/stained wood for gunnels. Will install tomorrow with tracks and triples and riggers. Getting close to "fishable" Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  14. Just trying to save some cash... Running low at this point !! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  15. I prefer to do a fighting hen sequence to bring the hens in, which usually Tom ain't far behind ! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. Mine are henned up and been at it for awhile... Got one big LB hanging with 3 hens at the farm,but dad gets first crack. Taking my 4yr old son with me so it will be a blast either way. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. Some progress since the snow dissapeared and the sun came out. Got 90% off the wiring done, just need to hookup batteries and see what happens...lol. Need a few odds and ends but should go quick Lined up my riggers, tracks and triples, but I need to redo some wood on the back before I can mount everything. Bought a piece of oak that I need to rip/router and stain. I'm gonna push this week to have it done and wet next weekend ! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. I'm liking where this is heading... I'll spread the word to some vets I know in the wny area Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  19. I hear ya, my thinking was that the Derby would be focusing on the vets, and I think for a second that any of us would lose that overly competitive attitude and lend a hand so we all get on fish. Either way, it's fishing and nothing is guaranteed. There's not a vet out there that's gonna pout for not "winning" and there isn't one of us here that won't try our best to get a jumby flopping on the deck. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  20. It's a tight fit. About 2-3" each side and boat backs in to just past the windshield. It will work for now, would just like the weather to cooperate a bit !! Thanks again !!!! Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  21. Still available Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  22. Ttt Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. Shoot, even make it an annual thing ! Freedom trollers.... Troll for freedom etc etc Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. Todd, I've been thinking about this more and more. Obviously we have a great bunch of fisherman on this site, that are more than willing to take a vet out, anyday. Is there something oath would be willing to put together for let's say each major port on the south shore, example..... Pick some dates, get some boats together, take some vets out all at the same time, maybe have a "derby" of sorts where there's also some prizes involved. I know it doesn't have the luster of a moose hunt or even a charter trip, but if there was enough vets looking to fish I think we could get a solid turn out of available boats. I also think it would be cool to have a good pack of boats heading out for the same great cause. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  25. Tons of info on here. Searching will prob give you lots of info your looking for. All kinds of ways to get your spoons down, leadcore, riggers, dipsys, weights. You definately want a floro leader to keep a good presentation. Sent from my XT1650 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
