I got the convector 45 with line counter for 69.99 regular price, they have all sizes for that price, well at least upto the 45 the 55 might be 10 more

You can get the convectors @ dicks sporting goods for 69.99, u can't beat that with a stick

Wondering if anyone will be fishing port sheldon this weekend, would like some tips . Haven't fished in 3 weeks . Will be there fri pm thru Sunday am docked next to the dorathy anne and coast guard boat.

I like okuma convectors and pink ande 20# and the triangle handle on the okuma classic rods are nice and only 30 bucks

I run dual marine batteries with a switch, never have any issues. I know that when I charge my batteries I have the switch to all and it charges both , with onboard charger I would think you would have to have a dual bank charger, but I am not 100percent on that.

Man I really wanted to see dr's on a ship! And you walking down a stairway to grab a hit! You are lucky I gota do dishes just to go fishing, then when I want/need something new I always get the u really don't need that line, then find myself con'd into buying her something!

Ok I want to build 2 or 3 holder rod trees, I don't have the money to buy them. My plan is to use 2" od aluminum tubing. The base will be 4" by 6" aluminum with a smaller od to fit into main tube, then I will drill holes to pin in or out position. Now where I am stumped isto how to cut the holder to fit flush against the main tube for welding and what angle to have holders coming off the main tube. Should top holder angle towards bow of boat? When everything is done ,and I'm done fishing with them this fall I plan on having it all poweder coated. Any help or tips would be greatly apreciated!

That's what I thougt, I mounted it same spot as my old one. I figured what the hell everything that's fun is goin to kill u, driving to fast, drinking, and now fishing and talking on your vhf. I just thought it was crazy and I have never seen a boat with it mounted corectly. So I'm stickin with how it is.

I just installed my new cobra vhf and skakspere 8ft antenna, as I was reading the manual it has a warning to not be in a 10ft radius of antenna when transmiting. Now I only have a 18 1/2 ft boat so I was wondering if I should be worried about radiation from this, and how you guys and where you guys mount your antennas. I don't really want to look like a jackass with my antenna raised on a 8 ft pole then the 8ft antenna. I have it on the gunwhale about 3 ft from my face on console side. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated!

Ok one of my favs! Stuffed burgers! hamburger,onion,mushroom, feta or creamcheese or both! Two thin patties add ur stuffing, mine cream cheese ,feta cheese, pepperjack cheeses and onion, mushroom and bacon, in small amounts! Then press two patties together, salt and pepper well ,grill on foil low heat cook slower and they stayed sealed, when done I always top with french onion chip dip , but mayo ketup mustard and fresh lettuce is good too!

Haha no offense, butu got nailer catching fish for u when u have the biggest boat on here? What does it take nailer to come on my 18 1/2 ft grumman to show me how to catch a fish? **** I'm lucky to have salmon let alone steak with it! Sorry I had to. And if u do mount dr on it iwanna see, cuz I have never sen them on a ship before.!.!

I just gotta say awsome website!! I was born in key west fla in aug of 86. I always fished alot offshore and inshore, but am clueless on salmon a total different fishery that I am used to but know how to fish and importane of temp speed and water. I'm hope to learn a lot here and be one of the ones giving info rath

er then taking! Good luck to all!

Thanks too everyone for an awsome site!

Great job! That's where I fish so keep reports coming!

Awsome job, at least ur cooler didn't have that stank skunk smell mine has sat. Pm lol. Great though keep us posted I fish port sheldon when I can

Can iadd mono to thr power pro backer then to core without any issues? The 150 yds cost 18 bucks and I would hate to flush that much money in line!!

Fished 30 to 115 one drivebye on bloody nose moonshine on 7 core, other then that absolutly nothing, trolled every direction,n my boat wasn't running tonite so on buddies boat and the only time I saw a sraight line was when I got back to dock, wut do I need to do? I'm hungry. Anyome fish out of port sheldon that needs an extra person let me know, I need to learn cuz I rip sux

150yds power pr backer, I didn't think it was enough but thed guy that spooled said I'm good so if I bring a spooled reel back to him ill let him hear the first words that come to my mouth when that 30 lbs king runs to milwakee with everything lol

My new rig okuma classic gti salmon rod, okuma convector 45 with 30 lbs power pro backer and suffix 7 core and 35 ft 20 gtx mono , all for 110 out the door bad deal? I'm gona try to post a pic.

Ok , what kinda okuma reels do you use? I am useing the convectors right now I like the cranking power with all the line out, but makes sence to not need one so powerful on smaller cores . What length copper would be good for september and august fishing? 150? 200? Thanks u guys for the info, I'm just getting into this addicting salmon fishing

My fishing partner and I have a full, 7, and 5 core now, so if we want to run one out the back with no board can we only put as many colors as we want down or do we have to let all the core out? We are wondering this for later this month and september when the fish are shallower, with out have to spend another 300 bucks for a 3 or 4 color setup. Thanks in advance for any input

What is a swr? Sorry my first year salmon fishing, so I want to learn all I can. Thanks

When you say 240 and 300 took hits ,do you mean you are running copper?

Went out in 4 footers trolled 10 minutes 69fow 40 down mixed veggies ss took 1 king 12#. Not bad for first time salmon fishing on my own boat. Headed back in to rough for my comfort range
