I also used it this past week an threw it with different swim baits and used it over 3 days about for about 2 hours each day ...had zero luck on it.

I can't tell if your boat is glass or aluminum? If it's fiberglass you can apoxy the transducer to the bottom of the hull on the inside of the boat..in which case you wouldn't need to buy a new one

or fix that one.. Google it and I'm sure you will find instructions on how exactly it's done.

You could also try Central Outboard Marine in Markham..they aren't to far from Woodbridge and I have brought my boat there for a while and so have friends of mine..

thanks for the help..if anyone else has some feedback for me that would be great

Hey guys im in the market for a new fishing boat and Ive been looking at the 2012 Polarkraft Nor'Easter 179 and I would probably power it with a Yamaha 115hp 4strk like in this pic....it seems to be a good bang for my buck and it looks really well built but I dont know anyone who has owned one.. If anyone has any info on this boat it would be great thanks.. .. the boat is almost like this one in the picture..

thanks for the help guys.. my next question would be how long of a leader line should I have from lead core to lure.?? oh an the Okuma is just a lower model reel "MAGDA" is the name

I bought a new Okuma line counter reel and Im going to spool it up with the suffix lead core line.. my question is what rod should I buy to mount it on?? I want to fish for walleye with it and maybe some steelhead...and I dont want to break the bank?

this was a good idea to start this conversation.. fellow anglers as followers is always good.

I have the lowrance elite 5 dsi and I love it. I got the "hot maps" for it and that combined with the gps and downscan is a deadly combo. As far as the hummingbird I cant really say because I have never used it but I have a hummingbird flasher for the ice and it works great. Good luck

Im sure you need a permit from the township in order to demo the place.. but b carefull because if it is as old as u say then it may b a heritage home and they wouldn't let u take it down chances are that everything will be fine so gook luck with the demo... also I always wanted to own land out that way.. what's waterfront property sell for in that area??

thanks guys!! ill try some of the tips and let u guys know how it goes.. also about that simcoe fishing where would I go for some lakers?

Dan,

The creator of those Slimers frequents the North Bay area (Redbridge is 20 minutes away) and Discount Tackle and Bait on Trout Lake Rd has had them for sale for about 5 years...maybe more. I have never used them but heard good things about them. The display at the store has some huge Lakers that were caught using them.

I got a great deal on some electronic down riggers.

Id like to test them out on Bay of Quinte trolling for some walleye. Can anybody give me some beginner tips? I am a rookie when it comes to downrigging, and any info to get me off on the right foot would be appreciated.

Thanks guys

Stick to fishing.

thumbs up!

any updated info on these baits? anybody using them? anybody know any bait shops that carry these?

any info would be appreciated.

thx

A friend of mine just went there and got a fish finder and trolling motor that he brought installed and they charged him almost $700 for the job and it was on a 14ft misty river! I think that was a little bit of a rip off... they said it's $100 per hour for service, I dont think that would have taken 7hrs. Has anyone else heard any bad things about them cause I was going to bring my boat there for service but now Im a little worried??

sorry Ive never tried catchin them out that way port dover is far from us.. I here the smelts have a good run out that way but I've never been.

mmmmmm!! gotta love smelt on good friday!! Today is the best day of the year, a day that all we eat is fish! I love it and the smelts add a nice touch. Also in response to the post about my honey hole it's on the south side of simcoe in a town called Sutton right at jacksons point! Ive been going there for years but this was the motherload!! There are a few spots to fish from just drive along the lake and you should find something. Smelts are really hit or miss so if you head out GOOD LUCK!! the run was early in the morning for us so put the work in and you should do fine. Also about the amount we took from the lake i'd like to say that that wasn't even a dent in the smelt population or the run... and not only do we share our catch with our families and friends but what we do keep must last us all year long so if we had another bucket with us I would have filled that to!

nice catch!! I havent seen smelts like that in years! there huge

where r they hot?

last night was a full moon and the temp is going up with the rain that we had so I think they will come soon I us dont know about simcoe because it wasn't to good to me last year only got 3/4 of a pail so if anyone can help out with a good spot other than simcoe please PM me>> thanxx

where were you when u stuck it out?? when I drove around simcoe checking spots there was nobody to be found, I was out there solo..lol I did run into 2 guys packing up at jacksons point around 11pm that was it.
