  1. I am going to drop the price to 1500.00 on the motor. and if you buy the motor I will let you have a used panther power tilt for only 300.00. I don't have one to sell but you can also get a 3" spacer that goes in front of the tilt unit to get more clearance between the motor and the boat. in most cases, a spacer isn't needed. the high 5 prop price dropped to 235.00 shipped. this prop is in great condition but I totaled my boat and no longer have any use for it. if you happen to have a 21p 3 blade prop and getting on plane is slow this prop will amaze you on hole shot and handling on turns and rough water. it is a great replacement for a 3 blade 19p also. \ on the daiwa sealine sg17lca reels are also priced lower at only 235.00 shipped. these served me well but got a new to us boat and switched to the Okuma cold water 203 reels. the penn 345 price has dropped to 135.00 and the 330 price has also dropped to 130.00 which is almost giving them away. if you have any questions on anything just ask.
  2. sounds to me like you may just be over propped. 5100 RPMs at WOT sounds like it isn't getting enough RPMs. what are the max RPMs for your motor? before tearing into other things I would try to find a prop 2" less pitch than the one you are using now. If it's a 19p go to a 17p and so on. going down 2" with a 4 blade would be even better. but going down 4" may be needed to get more RPMs because the extra blade makes it harder to turn than a 3 blade. and if the gas line is old it wouldn't hurt anything even if that's not your problem, as it might save you a big problem later.
  3. better do it again. TTT
  4. these are almost new reels and 2 of them are new and i never used them at all. you won't find a better price on convector 30 reels in this condition anywhere.
  5. sorry about not listing the size and price. they are the 30 size and with the 300; of 15# test single strand wire I had to put a bunch of mono on them before the braid backing just to fill the reel. so I'm not just sure how much a heavier wire or 19 strands it will hold. but if you only use a small amount of mono to prevent the braid from slipping, I'm sure they would hold quite a bit of wire. I don't want to just give them away but I want a fair price for them. they sell for around 120.00 and up each for a new reel. they are listed to hold 310 yards of 25# mono. if I were going to use these for wire I would spool the amount of wire and then the amount of braid I wanted the fill the rest of the reel with mono. now you know what it takes to fill the reel then just tie the mono to the reel and wind it off the reel filling the other reel. on the other reels just spool them with the wire on top using the count off the first reel. 30 size and 70.00 each shipping included. ALL SOLD!!
  6. I also have 4 Okuma Convector reels I bought to run wire for walleye. I don't think 2 of them were ever used and 2 are like new. I also have 3 8' roller rods I would sell for 65.00 each but you pay for shipping. I do have the other 1 but the tip is broken off and for 40.00 plus shipping you can have it. THESE ARE ALL SOLD!
  7. I don't know for sure if they are large enough for the wire you use but I have used the Okuma Convector 30 reels with mono on the bottom then a braid backing and 300' of 15# single strand wire on them. and if you are interested I have 4 like new reels for sale for 320.00 shipped to you.
  8. no, sorry but they are star drags.
  9. I also have 5 Daiwa sealine sg17lca reels in working order and 1 for spare parts. take all of them for 300.00 shipped to you. these old reels were working when I retired them but if you find any of them stops working the 1st 30 days I will refund your money and pay shipping back to me.
  10. the best thing you can do if they are caught in water deeper than about 25' is to get a kit for deflating their air bladder. u-tube is your friend. watch videos on bleeding the air bladder on them. then after bleeding the air bladder you still want to revive them like stated above. you can try holding them with their faces facing into the current for a few minutes. I have also thought about using a metal stringer with the locks on the clips and hook them through the front of their bottom lip then hang them over the side of your boat for a few minutes with the boat moving forward to revive them. the most important thing for any fish released from deep water is letting the air out of the air bladder. you have to do this if you want them to survive.
  11. these should sell quickly! 100.00 for 2 manual riggers of any brand is an awesome deal if they are in good working order. and cannon makes a great manual rigger, I know because I have used this same rigger before going electric. these would be a great buy for anyone just getting into rigger fishing or anyone wanting to add to what they already have. you might want to edit and add condition and model. I don't think anyone can find a better price on 2 riggers often. if it wasn't for the hassle of shipping I would buy these myself and put them on my small boat just to have a set of riggers on it.
  12. I can meet halfway on the motor, but I can't run it for you and I will guarantee it to run when you get it home. it is one sweet 02 motor for sure. if you have any interest in it I can take a few pictures and text them to you. you will not believe how good this older motor looks for its age. the story of why it wasn't used much at all is a long story. but it was bought by the son so he could speed time fishing with his dad. but not long after he bought it his dad died. he sold the boat but stored the motor. and after years of storage, he made the decision to sell it because he realized he wasn't ever going to use it. the rest of its story is too long to post here.
  13. I have a 02 mercury 9.9 4 stroke tiller handle electric start 20' shaft that is in amazing shape for its year. it starts right up every time and purrs like a kitten. I want 1500.00 for it which is less than I have in it. I have a 19p ss high five prop with the solid hub for mercury v6 and Mercruiser alpha 1 that is in great shape. 250.00 shipped. I have the large and small Tru Trax dip nets with extendable handled 55.00 for the large and 45.00 for the small one but you pay shipping. 2 345 Penn GTI reels in great condition and 3 Penn 330 reels still like new 140.00 for the 345 and 130 for the 330 reels shipped. I have 5 sealine sg17lca reels and 2 nonworking reels for parts and 1 reel that the handle shaft is loose inside the reel that is an easy repair for anyone who cat take the side off and get it back on 275.00 for the lot shipped. 2 Okuma convector 30d reels like new for 144.00 for both shipped. these are sold.
  14. I really can't believe you still have this boat. my son has a 26' boat we use when we take vacations to Erie. if you didn't live so far away I would buy it for taking 2 of us fishing and not trailering the 26' 700 miles round trip to Geneva Ohio walleye fishing. if you feel like towing it close to IN in the near future I will buy it for the song and dance you are asking for it.
  15. with the price of lures these days it calls for a treasure chest of sorts, LOL.
  16. GOOD DEAL!!! the simplest things can cause major problems and bad headaches.
  17. some states don't require anything at all or just the old registration. TN doesn't have to have any plates, titles, or registration at all. I bought a trailer in Wi and needed to title it in In and was told i had to get a title from the seller. they got the book and it said all trailers in Wi had to be titled. and they wouldn't give me a title or plates. then I kept arguing it didn't need titled in Wi. then a new girl at the BMV was trying to help me so we were looking at the book and about a paragraph further it said trailers that weighed less than so much were exempt. check the state where the trailer is the check with the BMV in both states to find out what is required.
  18. I believe those are called dredge weights and are the best DR weights I have ever used. I was using 12# pancake weights and last year I forgot to put them in our new to us boat. but the boat had 2 8# dredge weights and we had to use them. they worked awesome for us with much less blowback than the much heavier pancake weights.
  19. I think it might be the kill switch for shifting into gear is out of adjustment. try bypassing it and see if it starts. I had trouble with mine because the shift cable had stretched and I had to have a new shift cable installed. took it to a marina and they adjusted the cable and after it started about 3 times it quit starting again. another thing that it could be is the shift box start switch may be bad or the shifter isn't aligning up right. hold the key to start and move the shift handle a bit forward and backward and see if your starter kicks in.
  20. another thing you might try is going to amazon and search for a plastic drill bit. then find the size bit you plan to use. are you able to get to the back so you can use washers and nuts? or are you planning to use stainless screws? if you are going to use screws you want the bit to be smaller, so the screws fit snug but not tight enough to cause them to lock up and twist off in the hole. i have my tracks mounted with ss screws. i use 3 Connon retching rod holders per side plus another net holder on each side for our net. and have not had any of the screws get loose. one trip i left my 2 downriggers at home and a great friend let me use his cannon electric riggers with track mounts that i used on my tracks for a week with nothing coming loose. bottom line is if you use screws, they don't need to be super tight. but then again you don't want them so loose that they don't hold the mount solid. i never worried about drilling holes in my older boat as they will be covered even after the boat is sold or becomes a broken down boat.
  21. i always just use a standard high speed bit but i drill on the slow side unless it gets really hard. but for what youare wanting to drill it should be pretty easy.
  22. that's a great price for an hds 8 and all the trimmings. but what generation and does it have gps? at that price anyone wanting a great fish finder at an affordable price that just about anyone can come up with may jump on it before you answer my questions.
  23. i am still willing to buy the slide divers and the snubber for 35.00 plus shipping. you have a lot of interest in the jets so they should be easy to sell without the slide divers. message me and let me know one way or the other please.
