  1. For trolling I would say no, I am changing presentations out quite frequently at times and they arent catching fish if they arent in the water. So it is purely a timing thing for me. Plus now a days I need to go find my glasses to tie a knot.
  2. The class was well worth the time and money. I attended both days and Dan, Lucas and Rob did a fantastic job. The prizes were a nice unexpected bonus! Thanks Guys you did a great job!
  3. Agreed down 120 is 120 regardless if you have 120 foot of wire out or 160. The stress at the rigger is why I run 10s. I do run torpedoes and not balls to help reduce the blowback
  4. I use 10s and fish all summer from 70-150 feet. I am kind of paranoid about going heavier with the stress at the rigger mount, and I can always let out more cable. But I did buy a fishhawk so I would have a better idea of what water temp/depth I am at.
  5. They are .....unless your trying to play both sides of the fence because a lot of the general public is clueless.
  6. The water color is fantastic down there! I just got back from Islamorada wish I was still there...at least until the ice goes out. Was that out on Sombrero reef?
  7. There has been no reason to shop there for years. They used to carry some quality gear, now its pretty much all off-shored garbage labeled "Field & Stream".
  8. The ability to utilize ready made steering attachments. The ability to raise and lower the motors independently of one another. And lastly I dont know what the transom looks like on that boat but that motor that far away from the transom is going to have a significant amount of leverage. I certainly wouldnt trailer it anywhere with the kicker hanging back there. If it was me I would do a panther adjustable mount on the port side. If you are worried about getting the motor down far enough buy the 16 inch. slap on an ezsteer and go fishing. The bad about the port side mounting may be the boat may list to that side due to the weight of the kicker. Easily remedied perhaps buy relocating some gear??? That setup at some point is going to cost you money when that lower unit comes up when the kicker is down.
  9. X2. You are just making everything more diffcult with that setup.
  10. Exactly. I turn mine on and off just to keep my feet comfortable and have them off while I am walking. You cant cook them or they will eventually get cold when you kill your battery, and you cant wait till your feet are frozen to turn them on. i just turn them on and off and rarely need to put them on high usually low or med is enough.
  11. I have the originals not the pro flex. They have worked fine for years I have changed the battery in the remote once. That is it, and I use them in uninsulated lacrosse burlys and my feet stay warm all the time. The two things that normally cause problems are not knowing how to properly take care of a rechargeable battery(the batteries on mine are not removable), and using them in boots that are too tight. The insoles do take up a little space so I couldnt just put them in any hunting boot. When these crap out I will definitely buy a set of the newer ones without question.
  12. Interested in the 2 6" tracks....where are you located? Will you ship?
  13. X2 on thermacells . My feet freezed in everything when it was real cold. Just make sure that your boots are roomy enough for the insoles.
  14. When I talked to Fishhawk on the phone when mine was leaking they said to use silicone.
  15. I have had mine fill up twice and it was fine ....I wouldn't use vaseline as it is petroleum based and not good for the rubber seals. Sent from my SM-G950U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  16. he may have meant little galloo
  17. FISH307.com I think has the manuals, wiring and parts diagrams too.
  18. Still have the rod holders ...? Location?
