  1. Warm the engine up on muffs and do a compression test on all 6 cylinders. Start there.
  2. He has a signature Tatula Elite AGS rod for hair jigs Model: TAEL761MLMFS-AGS The cronos equivilant would be : CN761MMLFS
  3. @FordsnFishin This was me watching the early games: This was me checking my score for this league after the mid-day games: This is me looking at your score: This is me realizing you don't have any players left to play:
  4. I really like the Dobyns Champ 705CB glass for squarebills. Used a lot of squarebill rods and that is by far my favorite.
  5. I think you're going to be pretty hard up to find somebody that does a better job or has a better reputation than Ian Shields (E_Bassfisher) over on TackleTour. His contact is reel_tuner@yahoo.com. The guy is just amazing at what he does.
  6. You can find the G Force handle at Lowes, Tractor Supply, and a lot of other vendors. It's called Good Vibrations Start me up handle. It's the exact same handle /w a different label on it that the Gforce handle uses on theirs but for less than 10$. You can also find the Good Vibration handle if you look online in a bunch of different colors. You can make the exact same set up as the GForce handle (without the Gforce logo) for less than 17$.
  7. I use the steez SV TW /w 20# shooter on a custom Phenix K2 736 for exactly that. Love it. No issues. Smoothest reel I've ever used. It's a pretty small reel, too.
  8. Mr. Festivius, if you have any run good juju, I need you to use it. I have half your team in a larger $$ league with high score weekly bonus $$ and am needing you to put a whooping on me this week. I will not punt this week, but I am rooting for you. Somebody please beat @Jrob78 this week. He's won as many games this year as he's won the past 2.
  9. My Ultrex is very smooth. Very minimal effort to turn.
  10. Where exactly are you in IA? Assuming your trim gauge works, put the boat in gear and trim the motor down. The needle will go down and if you look back the motor will trim down, too. Gradually move the throttle forward. Your RPMS will increase and the bow of your boat will rise. Around 3000-3500 RPMS the bow will begin to drop. When the boat flattens out, trim the motor up. You'll feel the speed increase.
  11. It's the same reel as the original Tatula Type R /w Cabelas paint/color scheme. It's been out for 2 years or so at Cabelas. It is not the CT.
  12. Scoring format went through this time. Decimal scoring has been implemented. Instead of waiting for a QB to get 25 yards to get 1 ponit, you now get .04 points per 1 yard passing. (that is equal to 1 point/25 yards). Receiving yards and rushing yards are .1 per yard (1 point/10 yards) Your DST (not the player..just the DST) gets .01 per kick return/punt return yard. There is not an option for INT yards. This should eliminate any of the ridiculous amount of ties we've had the past 2 years.
  13. Glad to see Jrob got his 1 win per year out of the way early! side note... I believe I said we were switching to decimal scoring because we had so many stupid ties last year. I set it up as decimal scoring but it did not format that way. When I get home I'll do some tinkering and swap it to decimal scoring or at least try to . None of the outcomes will be affected.
  14. The fish locator on your TM battery isn't going to cause this issue. It will just cause you to replace your batteries sooner than later. The US2 fuse wouldn't have anything to do /w the power or losing power on your TM. It's just there for your electronics. I think some times people say it causes interference on your locator. If it worked fine at your dealer on their batteries, then it isn't anything in the TM or the US2 fuse. I get you're looking for a 3 minute fix but this is in your boat unless you're missing telling us something. If you feel the bow wiring is clean, and this TM worked fine prior to your out board service..and the only place in theory they would have been during this time would have been back near the batteries..I would start looking there. Run the TM directly to the batteries. Take the + wire off the breaker and put it directly on the battery post that the breaker + wire came from. If the TM works like this, replace your breaker. If it doesn't work, you have a wiring issue between the back of the boat and the TM. Hard to diagnose via forums but you've swapped batteries for brand new, you've said all connections are clean and solid, TM has worked fine in the past, and the TM works on your dealers batteries. The only things you didn't take with you to the dealer were the wiring and breaker...Only can be 1 of 2 things now. You really should have taken your boat to the dealer in the first place and not just the TM being at the time it could have been 10 different things.
  15. If you have a fish locator on your TM, take it off...you should NEVER have anything on your TM batteries (especially 24+v TM) except for the TM and onboard charger. Put it on your cranking battery. You're drawing down that battery and your TM will not get the power of 2 full batteries. If one battery is at 99% and the other is at 87%, you are only getting 87% on a 24v series instead of 99%. If the TM worked fine at the dealer, you have new and verified good batteries, then it's something in your boat. Being your TM is hardwired, there's only 2 things it can be. Your breaker or the wiring. Have you checked the wiring at the bow? You haven't said anything about the bow connections. You can always take the positive TM wire off the breaker and put it directly to the battery to test it. If it works then , you have a breaker issue.(Don't use the TM w/o hooking the breaker back up after testing...) If that doesn't fix it, the only thing left is your boat TM wiring. I believe the Ulterra has a 3a fuse in the head but it's for the US2 connection, not your TM.
  16. Your TM has a circuit breaker, not a fuse like your on board charger, electronics, or accessories. When you turn your breaker to OFF, your TM should not turn on or get any power what so ever. When you turn it on, it should be getting power. If it does this, your breaker is doing it's job. It is there to protect your batteries/boat from a fire when in case of overheating. When your TM has it's issue, is your breaker being flipped to OFF? If the answer to this question is no, and the breaker stays to "on", your breaker is not the issue. If the breaker is being flipped to OFF, then you either have a wiring issue, or a breaker issue. I have no idea what the wires /w the fuses /w the red caps are that are hooked to your TM battery.
  17. You didn't need to take the batteries in to be tested. Buy a volt meter. Just take the voltage at the battery after they were left off the charger... In the picture, your breaker is off. I'm assuming you aren't trying to use it /w it off.... If your breaker is ON when you are using it, and when it stops mid deploy, the breaker IS NOT being tripped, your breaker is fine. If you have to go back to your fuse and reengage it, then I would look at replacing it /w the recommended 60a breaker. Am I just not seeing them or are there no wires coming into that breaker...?
  18. Who wants to treat week 1 as our preseason game? Good god... I don't know if anybody will crack 90.
  19. Looking through your updates I'm a little confused. IF the TM turns off and then you can turn the TM back on and you actually see that it has power without flipping the breaker, then your breaker is fine. You wouldn't get any power if you have to reset the breaker. You may want to check the breaker size and make sure you have the right size for an Ulterra. If the TM works perfectly where you took it on their batteries but not on your batteries, odds are one of the batteries is weak. Just charge them to FULL and then remove everything off the battery and let them sit. Take the voltage the next day. If it's below 12.6, replace them BOTH.
  20. I'm a Daiwa guy. I would choose stella every time
  21. Brovarney's makes the best
  22. charge them to full, unplug the charger and let the batteties sit overnight OFF the charger. Check the voltage of each battery. Should be 12.6-12.7 on each. Check the water levels in your batteries. make sure they actually are hooked up correctly for 24v. Jumpet between the non used + and -. Check the connections on the head and make sure they arent loose. Make sure they are tight on the batteries and void of corroison. Take it to a minn kota repair shop. Its still under watranty.
  23. Strongest in their conference? Their defense was bad last year and it actually got worse this year. Their schedule is ridiculously difficult and I have a hard time seeing them winning 10 games...and I'm a Dallas fan.
