I've narrowed the choice down to the Cannon Mag 10 HS Downrigger and the Walker Tournament Electric Downrigger...

Thanks for all the feedback guys..

Thanks for all the replies guys!....I guess I'll do a bit more research and spend a little more on something that will last.....what are the advantages of using a longer arm (4')??

Does anyone have any reviews or experience with the Scotty 1106 Depthpower Electric Downrigger??

I'm starting to look at various brands and models and would like to hear what other OFC'ers have had good success with and/or recommend purchasing...

Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!

Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year!!

Al,

Give Stacy a call at ProTackle in Bellville....he had lots of Frabils last week. I just picked up some hyflex runners for mine...

Do your research and don't be afraid to call Canada Customs directly to talk to an agent...I bought my boat in New York last April and there were no horror stories encountered at all...I was in and out of the Canadian Border Crossing office at 1000 islands within 14 minutes!!

Time's have changed.. my father use to take a rye and coke out to the plow guy on our dead end back street at 7 am.. It sure kept our street cleaned nice and first.... but once the loader.. dump truck.. sidewalk guys caught wind... it got expensive.. lol

ah...the good old days

He's livin' the good life Wayne....wish it was me up there

Another fat beast ....congrats again Dale!...you and Sal are Hard Core for sure!

Georgeous fall fatties!!!....thanks for sharing!

I've been able to get out to most lakes the past couple of years with this setup...if the snow is too deep for the bike, I have an old 91 Polaris 500 Classic that gets me around...

Whoa......looks like it's gonna be a long "winternet" this year

Lew, you'd be hard pressed to beat a CTEK charger for regualr charging and maintaining batteries. It revived mine and I told Emil about it. He bought one and it revived his battery as well; it bought him at least one extra season from his 5+ year old ones.

The CTEK can be left on 24/7 and it does more than just charge, it desul[phates amoung other stuff I don't understand!

 

 

They go on sale at CTC frequently for $54, reg. price is $89. You can also buy additional plug ends (not at CTC) that will allow you to permanently mount to your battery and simply blug the charger into it.

 

The info on this charger sounds good!....I'm heading out to CTC in another hour and I just may pick one up...

•Compact four-step, fully automatic charger for 12V batteries

•Can be connected for months at a time - ideal for seasonal vehicles

•Rain and splash-proof, can be used outdoors

•Charges even drained batteries

•Continues to work in cold temperatures

•Maintenance pulse charging increases battery life and gives superb performance

Good report guys....sounds like another great time had by all!

Mike, what species of fish are in the lake??

Super report and PICS ....from using Woolly Buggers to Flatfish excellent choices!!!...one of my 2 favorites!

I forgot that option Steve!!

 

..and a little cold and nasty for this kind to be out.

 

I got cold just reading your report

How come your windshield wipers aren't working Wayne???

WOW....that is one huge Buck!!!...congrats!

That diver must be damn tired today.. out in that crap..

Good going guys!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE I didn't see this
