the key word is "generally" they swim away, my point is not all even the ones i don't let fall on my floor or use as a hammer.

you lower the limit to 1 what do i do with the bows i am pulling out of 50degree water down 50 to 80ft? there are going to be floaters in august if we can't put them on ice. you can spend a lot of time trying to revive some salmon and trout in 70+ degree surface water and they are still going to die.

so it was you i was talking to. go to radio shack and tell them what it's doing and ask if they have a filter for your power conection. if that does not cure it, it's likely the radio

bass pro 7 1/2 ft ul is a great rod. i use it as much as my 7ft st croix avid ul. don't get a 5 1/2 ft unless you spend most of your time in brushy creeks. the longer rods give you better casting and control.

Cobourg Creek Rainbow trout fish lift ***CANCELED***

probably just figured your gettin old and too slow -
good luck should be good fishing, they drop the water level in the winter so the fish just head to the deep holes. the camp owners want the lake to be closed to ice fishing because the fish are concentrated.

4olb hi vis braid and update the releases to or18's. the 40lb braid won't slip in the release and you have a reel that can be used for dipsy fishing as well. the hi vis is easier to keep track of in multi line spreads.

i have a 757c that works very well. i used to use a fishmark that crapped out after three years. it wouldn't read in water over 40ft deep and since i spend most of my time in 50 to 300 in lake o it was useless. replaced the transducer and power cables with no change. -
hi george thought you would like to know i took a 20lb salmon on a 6 inch blue/black jointed 110 ft down off the rigger last august

they all work and they all mark fish, jigs, weed and bottom hardness. i have a lx3 going into season 3 and see no reason to upgrade. the ice machine would be a good dual purpose but if you are going to do that skip the 800watt and get a more powerfull lowrance or hummingbird with tft screen (thin film tech). they all have a flasher screen and you can make box or something for use on the ice. basically i am saying you can get a far better sonar for the same money as the ice machine. if you do not want dual purpose buy a flasher. i spend most of my time panfishing and do not need dual beam but i can still mark lakers and whitefish coming to my jig in 100ft with the lx3. the sweet thing with my marcum is i can move my zoom anywhere in the water column so if the fish are suspended just below the ice over 30 ft of water i can put my zoom there, an fl18 won't do that

it really is pretty easy. i tied up two as winter hobbies and they came out well, may not have been as pretty as a my custom float rods but i did it myself.

it's pretty much the same dive curve. you might want to get a 600ft spool of 30lb copper instead of the core. it doesn't have the same rise/dive action of core but at least you feel the fish(no stretch like braid). 270ft of copper will do what a 10 colour does and you can make a few reels out of a spool. i have a 275, 125, and a 50 for coho my 275 rod was top rod through august out of bronte and all lengths will run on an updated clipped offshore i freaken hate core edit if your fishing eyes be prepared to keep fish because you will be taking them from deep water with a full core.
