Weekends are tough for me, wife works 7 to 7 and I cant fit my kids car seats in the Islander, yet:lol: Plus I just figured out that I need to replace a gasket on my motor:(. Plus my RH's are back ordered:( And my new tracks havent arrived yet:( So Friday looks like a no go:( Probably this month looks like a no go:mad:

Anybody ever have to swap one out? I see there is plenty of rust leaking from the gasket and hope I do not need to replace the riser ect. Any tips? I hear the gasket is a pain to get off.

Just wondering if any of you have done this just for fun? I know alot of you already fish the big money tournaments and derby's, but have any of you maybe challenged a buddy on any given day to a match fishing match? I have seen this done on other websites between members and thought it was cool. It would be really interesting to put one port against another, or even one lake against the other. All in fun of course. You could have a group calender set up and have everyone add the days they know they are going to fish. Match ups would be set up depending on that. Then the teams would email a moderator "sorry guys" and recieve there "secret item" that needs to be in the photo with the days catch. Its funny to see a guy or gal holding a fish with a baseball glove or baby bottle! By no means is this a challenge to any of you, I just thought because Mike and the moderators have all this extra time on there hands they could set this up!!

Ken, Those two rods look similiar in lenth, is it OK to run 9ftrs? I plan on adding some wire low divers soon and was wondering if anyone had any problems running two rods the same lenth that close together.

Congrats on hitting 100:thumb: I should be getting out Friday afternoon this week for the first run!!! Sounds like good wind for the rest of the week. Hopefully I will have a report.

I found it , Thanks

Looks like a blast on spinning tackle

Search functions do work for registered users. I have found answers to hundreds of questions and found that this site ROCKS!!!!! P.S. Anybody have any info on how to become a supporting member???

Thanks for all the help, I think Im leaning towards Jim's suggestion and maybe picking up a handfull of DB's to reach the depths I need. From what I hear theres nothing fun about a full core, Im just thinking about my 9 year old son whining......Plus Jim's got some rookie of the year numbers. Id be happy with half of that my first year:thumb: Thanks again for all the replys.

So if you guys only had 2 rods for lead core, what would they be? I have bought 2 spools of Suffix core and planned on taking 2 of my 4 DR rods and taking 2 colors for SWR's. That leaves me with a few different combos to choose, Like a 6 on one and full core on the other, or 8 on both, or 6 on both and keep 4 on the boat when I loose my SWR.:grin:I plan on adding more rods for boards next year, Im new at this and figure I will get the hang of running two before I run two per side. Also whats the best way to set it out on the board? Run it down the chute, clip the board on and swing it around? What about the dipsey rods? Man Im lost, first trip coming soon,any help would be great. P.S. Im fishing Milwaukee

Treoki???? Or Teriyaki? Just want to make sure im not missing out on something new, sounds good

Thanks for the warm welcome, I look forward to getting back out on the lake. Its been almost 20 years . I grew up fishing on my dads two boats in the 80's and have been wanting to get back for some time. Im sure you guys will help me out with the learning curve.

What about Gluvit???? Is that just for aluminum??? I hear about alot of people using this stuff.

Anybody know what it would be for my 191 I/O, All I know is I cant lift it.

Just saying hi, from the Milwaukee area. Im done dwelling now!!!!
