I installed a second deep cycle battery using the battery selector switch. I like knowing I have a full battery left when the one gets low on power.

part of what you are feeling with an outboard is probably the torque of the motor and prop. you will notice with motor trimmed all the way down in the water the front of the boat is cutting through...
I carry a spare prop in the truck. I don't keep it in the boat. but I also added a deep cycle battery and a battery selector switch so I have plenty of battery power for the bow mount trolling motor....
I have seen several guys out by themselves on the Gorge. I'll go out by myself on Sulphur Creek Res. but I always take a partner at the Gorge. I don't wear my PFD as much as I should either...but...
hehe..Well I don't get carp spit near my mouth anyway...but whats in it that's bad?
The way I understand it, you would need to stop at the port of entry and get inspected entering the state (just like Idaho) but the best thing to do is call the Wyoming game and fish department.
My vote is for Carp Spit!
Glad to know it wasn't just us....We fished most of the day Saturday from north of Holmes almost to Anvil and saw very few on the finder. I did catch a couple nice kokes out in the middle and my...
I don't know how well that works but I installed a battery selector switch between my two deep cycle batteries so I can run on one until it gets low then switch to a full battery. I have always been...
I don't have the Ipilot. I have heard good things about them though. Looks like you have a fairly large boat. I think you are right on the 60 for an anchor. I have 17 and a half foot Tracker and my...
nice job Dfly..I did something similar on my boat. I added another deep cycle for the bow mount trolling motor using a battery selector switch. I like knowing when one battery is getting low and...
They claim to use special rubber bands lol... I bought #16, 18, 19 rubber bands at Office Max. see above post for breaking strength. Ive used the offshore, Sepps, and cannon clip releases, and still...
Actually the way the Blacks release is designed you wrap ur line around the pin 4 or 5 times then clip it in the catch. with the tension set where you want...when the fish hits it trips the release....
I use the Black's releases. Similar to the Chamberlain but considerably cheaper. about 9 or 10 bucks..they have stackers. I use rubber bands for the release and set the trip tension on the Black's a...
Dont forget to read the new WY G&F regulations on Aquatic invasive species. They will be inspecting boats prior to launch. Go to the Wy Game & Fish website. They explain it in much more detail.
I agree Mudinchev...snubbers are another thing to go wrong. I have been using the downriggers more these days.
Not sure if this has been said already....but it bears repeating. Only use a regular or dual purpose battery for your engine and accessories. Use deep cycle for electric trolling motors, downriggers,...
A friend told me about hagensfish.com. I havent ordered anything from them but it looks like they carry a lot of stuff for making your own tackle.
I usually use the pre-tied lead core with the backing and leader pre-spooled with about 12 to 14ft leader, but when I need to re-tie a leader (tried the Chinese finger knot...real PITA)...I use a...
I kind of cheated. used the overhead crane in company shop. picked the boat up in the back just off the bunk boards. Replaced the boards with treated 2 bys. from lumber store and marine carpet from...
I have a 17.5 ft tracker with a 115 Optimax which i troll with regularly. (yes u can troll with a two stroke) lol... Not really enough room for a kicker on the transom. My original prop is a 13.25...
I use the Okuma 300 dx for my leadcore rods. also just got one with line counter. I went the easy route and bought the ready made leadcore. Includes 150 ft of backing, several colors of leadcore, and...
SuperD....this is the second week in a row..that this has happened....My loving wife (she's my favorite fishing partner) offered to let me reel one in when she hooked one. I politely told her to kiss...
Well heres my first report. Took the boat and a friend to Anvil Draw Sunday. It wasnt my best day....I hooked a couple Kokes but lost them, trolling with pop gear and worm rig... but my friend caught...
My boat is a 1999 Tracker Deep V 17. When I got a couple years ago it had just the drivers side console.
