Adjusting the new trailer for your boat is another engineering feat. Once boat is on the trailer and adjustments needed lower tongue jack completely then crib back of boat. Raise tongue jack. Taking boat off rails make adjustments and lower boat back on trailer.

I also seen it on tri lakes couple times and a gaint pike on Bay of Quinte close to Lake Ontario. Seems random different weather and water conditions.

I,ve seen this several times the first time was at Moon River Basin. I was casting a shoreline and got this Erie feeling. Looked behind and here's my target just watching me, when I moved trolling motor it moved to watch me. Really spooky, fish that area everyday trying to raise the fish just didn't happen.

Both got less than 1 hour with me. Bloodline 3 days when the coating wore off and sunk just like every other mono. Been using Co Polamar for 40 years, still try the next greatest line every time, guess I like throwing money away.

It's huge wiring your troller correctly and even more so for electronics.o

To run 80% constant you will need the best connections possible. I would take top off the head 4 screws from underneath. The first thing is your nose take a good sniff. If it smells burnt it likely is. You will also see a connection if that looks burnt it is. Really you should never run a trolling motor on 80 ,think it even states in manual only for short periods . You might need a 36 volt system.

A little different got a phone call many years ago from Durham Region police. Do you own a 1989 Corsica. AW yes, could you check a see if the licence sticker is on this vehicle. Yes sir it,s in the driveway. Nope sticker gone. Cop said these guy in a lot of trouble. Well this car is parked at Teddy's in Oshawa 5 days a week. That fits these guys are just down the street. The moral of the story. Cost us $35 to get new sticker.o

Getting over border is big issue. The easy way is duel citizenship or US citizen . Thats why you fish tournament with proper letter you get over border.

I've heard guys get letter to fish tourney stateside. Go over border. Then pick up there boat, and. Say they bought boat at tournament.

I step on my shimano symmetry back in 1999. Won that tourney then won some small stuff . The next year won a tourney then won CSFL Classic plus some small stuff. The next 2001 same thing won some tourneys and the CSFL Classic. Won few more more tourneys over next few years until I retired from big tourneys. To this day I haven't fix the reel, it's bend so bad it speeds up when it goes by the bend. The reel is cheap so never worried about it.

Serious question about verbal harrasment while fishing
Garnet replied to huzzsaba's topic in General Discussion
It would be a miracle to get a verbal hassement charge lay , proably bigger miracle to get police to show up at a fishing spot to witness verbal harrasment. Think you need to stranded up for your self. -
Serious question about verbal harrasment while fishing

It's hilarious the guys that think keeping 1 rainbow in the eastern ditchs is criminal. You go to Georgian Bay and a caught rainbow is a dead rainbow. On the eastern ditchs most know I won't take there crap. Then I point out the charter industry kill more rainbows than I have in just 1 day. i wouldn't eat bass if their was other option, but I have and will eat any fish. -
I'm going on 14 years retired. No job . THe most important thing for me was get on a routine, get up same time and go to bed same time. At the start of retirement it was important for me to have a plan for next day. Now I have no plan, start most days going swimming at local Rec center, then doing home jobs grass ,weed eating . I'm real fussy about what days I go fishing lately way to hot really avoid wind haven't been in a boat when rain hits for years. Always walk away when jobs are talked about.

And in heavy breeze your troller is popping out of water adds to risk reward. I no a guy that always said with alligater clips I will just unhook them. Finally happen to him ,dburned all the skin off thum and the melted rudder burned fingers close to bone.
-
The breakers at the battery are the weak link. If the troller quits you hope to have light tester or multi meter. Barring that you take back lead off breaker and move to front if troller starts working you can try the little black reset button. I.ve had little success on resetting breaker and they get easier to pop if they rest. i always had spare breaker with me but it was risk reward if I changed it on water but certainly changed it before next tournament day.
-
My breakers are 50 amp on the battery. I never reset them, just move the wire forward taking the breaker out. They pop easier every time so I replace after the first pop. You can get them at stero shops also. Chewing thick mate weed is where they pop most so not really issue on Simcoe and running them on 100% or high bypass is risky.

18 is Very small on Balsam. 26 seems to be the avg pike have caught 12 lb pike.

I am a good spring walleye angler. I can't catch what's not there. Hope I'm wrong so I check with friends and they found same. -

Rice Lake is on the clock. All slots are 19 inches and just a slew of 20 inch overs . In 15 trip never caught any low slot walleye and zero under slot. Clock is ticking -

With out a death in family my wife learned to back my boats and also her tent trailer which is a mean little B to back up.

Minn Kota makes a self deploy , the price will likely shock you. And spot lock is incredible. I've stayed with the cable steer so far. But spot lock models so popular there's many good deals on used cable steer . ! would suggest 80 Fortrex 50 inch shaft.
