CTC sells a Nautilus deep cycle power pack/booster with nav lights. It was on sale 2 weeks ago but is regularily priced at $160. Good investment if you are thinking of running a trolling motor.
Wow! Nice fish. Tomorrow will be day 3 for me on Lake O and only 2 small browns so far. Today was way too windy. The offer is still open to anyone that wants to join. Launching in Burlington around 9 or 10. I'll check tomorrow morning for any takers.
Hey Mike I was wondering if the pompano are still hitting on those yellow jigs with a teaser or if its something different now. I'm heading down to St. Petes on Friday.
I would go for the 4 stroke. I had the problems trolling slow enough with a 125 Merc on a 18' aluminum so I use a kicker motor and save fuel and engine life on the expensive motor.
Hi Anton, with regards to losing half of the rod; when putting the sections together offset the two halves by a 1/4 turn, snug them together then align the eyelets. This should lock the sections together.
Keep trying for that pike!
