  1. You must lay down a clean white before the fluorescent paint.
  2. What gives. There are no C230 trolling motors anywhere for sale. So I'm looking for a good (note GOOD) used minn kota C230. Thanks, Ted Albany NY area. 518 210 0096.......... Sent from my SM-J737U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. When you make your decision, I had a good engine rebuild experience with a big shop in Virginia. You have to begin exploring shops starting somewhere, so if you decide rebuilding with up to date parts I can reccomend a shop to begin your search. A good shop ? You will know it when you see it. Settle for nothing less.
  4. I started out at Wilson and Olcott driving a 16 footer. I had one 'Invader' downrigger with three rods. I had a VHF radio and a used paper graph. Don't forget your compass! I ran a 10lb. ball . I used cheaters and a long line out back. Many times I fished out sight of land. This was on a tiny budget and my young son was always on board. The other captains in your vicinity can be counted on if you have a bad 'situation' such as my 6 gallon metal gas can springing a leak. I once forgot my cannon ball. The guys out there saved the day with a replacement gas can to transfer that gasoline. Suddenly a new cannon ball shows up so my trip wouldn't be ruined. Most of all, try to go out with an experienced guy a few times to learn some tricks and tips. I'm forever grateful for my friend with a Lund and my Father with his boat taking me out on trips to fish. I learned a lot....... So, good fishing to you.

  11. I'm Ted, I've fished way back in several ESLO derby's. Won some little stuff [emoji2960]. This spring I'm lake fishing again after some time off. I'm after Erie walleye and Ontario salmon. I'm happy to meet y'all. Ted Sent from my SM-J737U using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Ha ha ho ho ho. Good idea. I'll get right on that. 🤔 you know, I do have that experience, but I'm retired now. Ten bucks is better, and I can't thank the Rod Hog enough. Thank you, Rod Hog again! Ted
  13. That's fair so long as the gimbal is aluminum and for the dual mount. How do you want the payment? Check? I need your phone number and I'll call you for the address. Thank you very much, ..... Ted ..... 👌😃
  14. That's great. Aluminum, right ? What will it take to get it RH ? ...Ted
  15. Hello, I received eight plastic/vinyl gimbals for a dual mount, Cannon downrigger rod holder.The two rod holders attach to the gimbal. All these gimbals cracked to pieces, even the ones Cannons experts 🤣 sent to us. The other downrigger has an aluminum gimbal with no problems. Could someone please check their junk drawer for an aluminum one? (Gimbal). We can work out the details later. Thank you, TFB
