I like to run 25-30' behind the ball with 30lb flouro on Lake O.

I doubt the flouro adds much advantage over mono out there - but it makes me happy to run it.

For what it's worth, I double the flouro off the leadcore.

:-)

Great news - thanks for the post!

Classic - nice work Wayne!

OK, so finally got around to taking a picture of the Bert's system on the boat.

There are two 4 foot tracks on the sides with the 8 foot bar across the back.

Here is a pic of the whole system:

One major safety component for the bigger water is that the riggers are mounted much higher up than they were before. This results in a much easier handling of the rods when the salmon hit, with the bar serving as a safety device as you can brace against it.

I'm running the ratchet rod holders which I highly recommend.

Here is a closer shot of the one side:

I'll be running two sets of Salties off the sides for the inline boards and/or dipseys off the braid and wire.

Followed by a side shot:

Still to come is the 9.9 kicker which will be added in the spring.

More as an alternate power source as the F-90 does a great job trolling in terms of sound and fuel economy.

In the larger rollers, a single point of power failure is not a good thing!

:-)

Nice work Rob!

Have a couple older RC 10s that the kids and I race around the ball diamond behind the house.

These relics are incredibly durable and we have a blast with them!

:-)

Nice looking hound!

Wow that boat in Sudbury is full price....

Very nice - congrats!

Good one - thanks for sharing!

I'm guessing that a 4 would be working fairly hard to push 3 mph into the wind with some rollers added for good measure.

I'll be using mine for trolling for Musky as well so I will need the extra speed.

If there is someone using a 4 hp on around 1000 lb vessel - it would be great to hear their feedback....

Forgot - Welded or Riveted?

Walleye...yes

Tiller....no way.

:-)

I'm in a similar situation and it will be either the 8 or the 9.9.

Not much price difference, so the 9.9 will probably win out.

:-)

Thanks for the feedback folks - placed the order for the Church boards.

:-)

Thanks Guys - I will definately being using leadcore on the boards.

It looks like the pro pack comes with the flags - so I'm assuming that is the first choice?

So I have some budget left for 2007, that I need to spend as the Warden doesn't believe in carrying over budgets (damn corporate types)

Application is trout and salmon - which way should I go?

Thanks in advance for the feedback!

SS.

Great contest - PVR is set!

Love it - thanks for sharing!!!

Looks like some good deals have been coming up from the US as well....

Now, that is kewl!

Thanks Rick - I'll try that first. Is is OK to put the nav cards in them?

I have never used a card reader, so it's all new to me.

Can you use any card reader for the nav cards?

Just curious if anyone is using this and how they find it.

Thanks!
