Salty Nut

It was a nice morning! I saw a couple boats out there and figured it was good too, i thought it might be guys targeting steelhead because of the Derby. That bay thing is an annual event coordinated somehow on social media, always on a Wednesday unannounced. Its a pain getting out everytime, it never ceases to amaze me that folks with boats and pwc can be clueless at the launch. The next couple weeks should be awesone, hopefully with less flea problems

Weather forecast was exact today so straight out to 200 feet. Temp was good down 80, so set some stuff in tge range and 230 wire diver fires and runs through rigger rod set. That trips and bye bye fishy. Reset, at 285 outside diver goes with a screamer, grab rod and the center diver goes hard, so double. 55 minutes later both matures in the boat, took a little time made a circle and covered that spot again, another mature on the wire. And i was solo and whipped, so back to port. Its always something.... I have never seen the flea so bad! If you could keep a clean set, it was going to get hit, but the constant cleaning lines was brutal. Good luck IMG_20260708_153126.heic

Great report and congrats on your success! Thanks

I am on hold for now If something changes i will contact you Thank you

Thats what i see too Nothing looks simple or conventional One good spot, matching on both sides, to put flush mounts and gimbals but getting to the rods, setting lines etc looks brutal Then the angle of cable in turns and stuff is right in the prop So this may turn into a dipsey boat, no riggers No way i can give up a cup holder for a rod holder..... Its a party boat

i understand Just don't have it figured out if what im trying to do will work

Location?

Do you still have these?

Thanks to all! I intend to mess with it today, lots of ideas to try for sure Thanks again

Thank you!

I like that! I will have to do a little measuring and check access I'm also thinking mounting on those hatches that open, putting a fastenter(s) on them to keep them closed

Im all in Just cant find a place to put in flush mounted rod holders to set the gimbals in

Looking for ideas on putting two EasyTroll Cannon hand cranker downriggers on this 188 Hurricane Sundeck boat. Short booms, maybe 24"s or rod holder ideas too Tried rail mounts, the rails on these are so small in diameter nothing holds. Tring to get back to some recreation trolling from the sun crusier on Seneca!

Hooked a big rainbow casting off the dock this morning! A couple of wild jumps too! Great fish, colored up a bit too. 7 maybe 8 pounds! Catch and release for me on Seneca! I think i good sign for the Seneca comeback!

I had a similar set up but with two rollers instead of the V's as shown. The mount should rotate on that center bolt, so depending on the angle of the boat launch your using, that moves so the bottom roller catches the nose and sends it up to the top roller, it pivots when it needs to. I had a 23' fiberglass boat on that set up and that thing worked great. So i would add rollers and make sure it pivots on that center bolt, i suspect you will like it.
