coralee Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 No flea issues on the braid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleboat Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 No flea issues on the braid?Fleas were there, but about 75% less on the braid and alot easier to flick off. I wear gloves pulling in the line when I hand over hand net by myself with the braid. If I tangle the braid with a SD or other, I cut it and retie the snap swivel. It's to difficult to try and straighten it out. When I use mono I have a little plastic fork with smooth edges to flick off the feas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReelNauti Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Didn't get out yesterday...probably should have, looks like the fish we're on the chew! I got out Friday during the day..fished the same water..0/3 must have forgot to put hooks on my spoons.😡😣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleboat Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 I know the feeling. Morning bites were poor, but evening was much better. I did have one tangle last night, but it was when the fish twisted the braid somehow under the inside of the snap swivel on the dipsy. I lost about 15 minutes until I finally had to cut it apart. The 4th fish (king) hit at the same time and stayed hooked until I pulled it to the boat and bungled it. Also the launch ramps were really busy with the holiday boaters. The fog wasn't bad at all. You could see land and other boats easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReelNauti Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Do you run a fish hawk on your boat? If you do how do you like it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleboat Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Do you run a fish hawk on your boat? If you do how do you like it?I run it on my bigger boat. I thing it's the best. It is an X4D, reads temp, depth and speed at ball. On the littleboat I use a small hand held fishawk attach it to a line with a 2-4 oz weight, send it to the bottom, let it settle out and then slowly crank it up. It reads temp every 5 feet. Then I decide how to fish. Edited July 6, 2015 by littleboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleboat Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 I have the x4d, my error in the previous message. I corrected it. You'll love it. Wish it were cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
