Roy Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 So how did it go? Are you happy with it? Any tweaks you want to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted May 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I forgot how much of a pain it is to troll from a console. I only had a few hours before picking up the kids from daycare. Things went so smooth I kept expecting to have the motor fall off on the highway home. I'm used to my hummingbird so there is a bit of a learning curve with the lowrance, but no big deal. I hope to go fishing next week and that's where I'll start to get a sense for any tweaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Uh oh.......skunked on the first outing is a bad sign! Glad to hear it went smooth otherwise. I fully understand the whole trolling/console thing. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rizzo Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 my 3 year old son (who should be in bed) just peered over my shoulder while I was looking at your photos and said "hhheeeyyyyyy that guy is fishing in OUR boat" (and now he's bugging me to scroll back to the picture) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIFTER_016 Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) There are a couple of options when it comes to preventing stone chips. The flaps are OK but do nothing when stones are thrown from vehicles passing you. The Bow buddy attaches to the front of the trailer to protect the hull from stones. http://www.trailer-rockguard.com/ If you travel a lot of gravel roads the Trailer Tux is the one to have. http://www.trailertux.com/ I want to add one to my trailer and I think the Tux is the one I will go with. They aren't cheap but neither is a paint job. Almost forgot to mention that they are both Canadian companies.
