OK, I have a 101 MinnKota bow mount, twice now I hit something and instead of bending the shaft the spring absorbed all it could till the upper sleeve poped out ( sleeve is upper part inside spring housing with the nut on it to adjust height). MinnKota clams easy pop in, The last time I had to remove everything on top of the motor to slide the sleeve off. Does anyone know the easy pop in? Thanks Joe

I fish 20lb Stren golden braid with about a 2 foot leader of 17lb fluoro on spinning gear, it really does handle great and I can see the braid real good. Had real good results with this set up. Joe

I have crystal on 2 spinning rods 8lb and 14lb, I think its more visible then the green, I use green or black magic markers and color about 2 foot of the line above the hook.

Anyone know where I can get a fishing map, showing depths, of Conowingo reservoir in Maryland? I can't fine anything on line. Thanks Joe

Thanks guys, I got it, I kept looking for Navionics Maps, and it was there right in front of me, all those goofy numbers have the states abbreviated in the front, I hit the Pa. NJ. and its all there. I should have mentioned I'm half Polish. : Thanks Again Joe

I have the manual and I'm doing what it says to do, I don't think its reading the HotMaps card. The hatMaps card is supposed to have the Delaware River, Union lake, its not showing any depths on either one. I E-Mailed Lowrance Friday, hope to hear from them tomorrow. I do show a bunch of numbers in the map section and I click on a few of them but nothing seems to change on the screen. Thanks guys I got to do some more playing with this thing. Thanks Again Joe

I'm getting what looks like MMC/SD memory card blinking in the lower right hand corner, I have the SD card that came with the unit and I have a Navionics Hot Map card. I tried to use the Hot Map card from the map page on the GPS like it tells you but Navionics is not one of the choices. I just acquired this from a friend who said he never really knew how to use it, think you guys can help me out? Thanks Joe

Wow, nice, who makes that boat? Thanks Joe

Anybody know a good web site, DVD or book that explains what your seeing on you Fish Finder. Thanks Joe

I have 6 Accurest PT's, 1 Extreme and 2 Megaforce, you can't go wrong with the Accurest PT. Good Luck Joe

There getting more then that for the 08's on E-Bay. Thats got to be last years model

Quantum Tour Edition 11 bearing 7:1 Reel - TE1170PT

I have two, my son has two, and another fishing buddy has one. We are all very happy with them.

Does anyone know if Tracfone's double minutes also double the time you have to use them. Like $19.99 buys 60 minutes and you have 90 days to use them, if you have there double minutes for life would that double the 90 days to 180 days? Thanks Joe

About 55 minutes a month, I been looking on line and I think I'm going with Tracfone. Thanks for your input. Joe

Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2009 10:38 am Post subject: Pay as you go phone? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I thinking of getting red of my contracted cell phone and getting a pay as you go phone. Does anyone know who has the best plan? Thanks Joe

Thanks guys, for $25.00 I'll find something to do with it.

E-Bay

Any of you guys ever use P-Line Evolution? I just pick up 2500 yards for $25.00 in 17lb test, I did find out BPS sells the 3000 yards for $79.99 and that's what this is less about 500 yards. Thanks Joe

This what I have used: Worm T/R With Sinker > Yo Zuri 12 lbs 7:1 Worm T/R No Sinker > Yo Zuri 12 lbs 7:1 Swimbait > P-Line CXX 20 lbs 6.3:1 Frog > Sufix Braid 65 lbs 6.3:1 Crankbait > Silver Thread Clear 12 lbs 5:1 Spinnerbait > Silver Thread Green 16 lbs 7:1 Jerkbait > Big Game Green 12 lbs 7:1 Jig > Fireline Crystal 14 lbs & Power Pro Braid 40lbs. 7:1 Topwater > Big Game Green 12 lbs 6.3:1 Buzzbait > Silver Thread Green 16 lbs 7:1 Dropshot Rainb YN1000 Spinning Reel Seagurr 10 lbs Wakyhead Daiwa 1000 Spinning Reel P-line Floroclear 6 lbs I wae experimenting last year, 2007 all I used was 12lb trilene XL and 4lb Cabelas, I just got back into fishing, I shouldn't say back in, I never really stop fishing just slowed down a whole lot. My son actually got heavy into Bass fishing and I just climb onboard. I get to spend a lot of quality time with my son and Grandson Joe

I'm looking for a website or a forum post that gives you sort of a standard rod, line, gear ratio, that you can use as a starting point for certain fishing applications, say for T/R worm, crankbait, spinnerbait, buzzbait, topwater, jerkbait, jigs, dropshot, basically all types of bass fishing. I'm not looking for a specific brand, I'm looking for rod actions, line weight and type, and gear ratios preferred. Thanks Joe

You get what you pay for, do all the reading you can on different reels and then get the best you can afford. Good Luck Joe

I've use a Sharpie permanent marker to color the end black or brown. Good Luck Joe
