  1. Thank god support isn't on the rock... or only Misfish and Sinker would understand what thar sayin.
  2. And many don't believe in Cyrogenics... I think you're onto something Leechman!
  3. Now you tell me Doug.. .our youngest daughter is in Amsterdam! I hope she gets over to England safe and sound tomorrow !
  4. With that bet.. guessin you fishing gear collection won't be growing tooo fast! lol
  5. Just make sure there's power pro in the box. I just went to respool my ice rod with 4lb thick/15lb test Power Pro ice and (after stripping my spool off) I find some pri ck swapped the spool in the box for 4 lb Trilene ice line to save $10 !
  6. I'd be in heaven if I could get 99 virgins to ... Steve...
  7. Sound like nothing but a loose wire to me...
  8. What model Lowrance are you using. I had a lot of issue with my 102C. It worked fine to about 40 FOW but then was hit and miss in anything deeper. I thought it was because I was using the transom transducer so bought the ice trans and it didn't change a dam thing. Then Lloyd played with the unit and finally reset the unit to factory defaults and fine tuned from there. Works beautiful now at about 74% sensitivity. Anything more is too much. Chart speed is 100%.. ping 50%
  9. Looking at your picture your puck is on a slant. It has to be flat to get proper returns. May take a bit of playing to get it just right. Shouldn't matter if it's in the hole you are fishing or in one a couple feet away.
  10. That should work like a charm..cuts down on your finder positioning choices.. but so do all the ice machines with the little swing out transducer holder. I've been drilling three holes when using my hut. Finder in center hole.. fishing the two outer ones. Marks everything... even a 1/16th oz jig a foot off bottom in 100 FOW. I also prefer just using the normal graph mode... flasher drives me nuts.
  11. Thanks Steve... gonna give this guy a bit. First it was confirmed.. then back ordered.. then can't get a reply. Muskie openers a bit off yet... Sad part is it's only $1.65 worth of parts and $7 postage! lol
  12. Well don't order online from Mike's reel repair on the west coast. Been waiting since Dec 15 for the handle retainer for my 700B that fell apart on the Niagara on the 13th. Can't even get them to return an email...
  13. Lets put this in prospective. You park your car in the normal parking lot and the beaten path to miles and miles of ice.... as far as you can see... has a pressure crack in it that someone has thrown a plank/pallet etc across to make walking easier. No big deal..... and off you go until a perfectly directed wind takes one end of that 5+ miles of ice and starts swinging it out opening the gap, while you are unaware fishing on 2 feet thick ice.... 'till someone decides to leave or get on ! Many sledders apparently drove off at the other end.
  14. Or the neighbours kid out for a swim !
  15. Yes you will and I might even leave your tickets at the door. Jr.. screwed that one up !
  16. Was just lucky enough that tiger direct called me to confirm the order.. since phone # has to match what's on your credit card data that's what they used when putting in their order.. but a shipping address that didn't match mine!
  17. I'm speculating.. but all that our group of guys pulled up from 60+ feet last year and mine last week at 72 feet weren't bleeding and released just fine.
  18. I suspect it's flicking their gills out to kill them quick.
  19. Last time I saw it it was riding on his shoulder in the truck Joey !
  20. .. or is your oil reservour still FULL ? ie engine running on straight gas and oil injection failed. I'm real curious as to the cause since I'm driving the exact same sled in a 98 model.
  21. "Yah.. there are some bigger ones.. like my two! " HAHAHAHA Great day out Simon !
