I have poured tin jigs for friends in the past, they sure feel strange in the hand. He needed them for a non toxic only lake he was going to out east.

I would guess the process of making an...

Most of the starting batts have the heater for that reason. However using the battery warms it up so it will eventually get warm enough to charge from the draw of the EFI and electronics on it. One...

Its only for UHD2 and Ultra2 units.

Plus units stopped being updated a couple years ago at 13.4 you dont have to worry about any updates.

Echomap UHD 73/93 are discontinued at 27.1

Lithium starting batteries are okay, but otherwise lithium batteries have a BMS set to 14.6V typically and outboard alternators can output 14.8v regularly. If the battery cut off input amps because...

My gls10 with lvs32 draws 0.02A resting (screwn off) and 1.2A running.

You want to run your livescope screen head and box off a separate lithium battery to eliminate interference and allow it to...

All the time. Thats how i keep tube jigs on heads as well when they start slipping. Loctite gel super glue

I have to watch myself, i get excited and start fishing with my wrist loose instead of the rod tucked up under my forearm and before long my arm is dead! I do like a heavier reel to keep it from...

Yes and aluminum reflects the LS beams real nice.

If you are looking for a jig to show up better, look for one with more surface area and flat sides.

Dropping a jig or bobber/minner straight down into structure, usually lay downs and shore based structure.

Somebody stole a house here recently. Not even a mobile home, one of those pre-built slab houses. How the heck do you steal a house and not get caught? How many house transportation trailers are...

Most of the stolen boats/motors in circulation are due to family/court disputes. Selling during a divorce, death, grand child taking the motor when Grandpa doesnt use it anymore and uncle reports it...

Thats funny, those are what i was last looking at. I was contemplating stealing my inline ice reels and trying those, then late last night I was on amazon looking at those cheap reels.

My only...

I need to put new reels on my dippin rods, wondering what you guys suggest? I use 11' bucks ultralight rear seat rods

IMO profile matters, color doesnt most times. If they are keyed in on a nymph bite and you drop a shad bait or twister to them in a bug color you typically won't have near the success as if you...

Ive transitioned to using mono for my dock fishin recently. I was getting bad spots in the braid, and breaking off fish swinging them in the boat or if they wrapped a pole. It took me a while to...

Life is too short to use line you cannot see. Enjoy the time on the water, not frustration. No time have i ever thought i needed braid over mono for crappie fishing. In fact, i use hi viz yellow or...

I have always been a grass is greener type, if theres a chance at some improvement then I want it. So when an update available comes up on my garmin app, you better believe im out in the boat doing...

We have a 25 per day limit but no possession. Youll see the same boats hitting all the beds every day of the spawn, taking home limits every day for the summer fish fry where they invite everyone...

Same here. The "plublic" beds, as in ones easily seen in community hole areas, will get wiped out the first warm weekend they move up. People will literally park a boat on one and 3-4 adults will...

Hate em. I stripped all my micro guide rods and put normal small #5 guides on them. One day with cotton on the water was enough for me to hate them.

Could be late males that came up after the bulk have already spawned too, ive seen that happen before. I cant tell from pic but usually late males are on the smaller side, 9-10" and dont get to...

My dealer salesman/owner told me to use mercury products when i asked (was my first 4s), and said to not use seafoam. While talking to the mechanic in the back about a few rigging things i wanted...

When i see fish that deep on sonar.

Two 1/32 with sliders get to 10' deep at 40' behind the boat at 0.8mph. thats about as far back as i want to be, so if i need my baits deeper than 10' i go to...

Depends on depth and speed. I use all sizes, but my standard is two 1/32 at 0.8 and adjust distance back for depth. This works well in 12' of water or less

Those older yamis are always noisy and clanky sounding, but yours does sound a little rough. I think it just needs a tune up, clearly its had a rough lift. Lash the valves, hook it up to a remote...

Id check valve clearance especially if the motor ran hot and locked up.. who knows what backed off or warped.

Intake 0.20, exhaust 0.34

Do you have oil pressure gauge you can hook up? Not enough (or any) oil getting to the lifters is a possibility. Valve clearance look okay? I really think it sounds top end.

Maybe some junk made...

Why was it locked up? Did you check cyl walls and piston rings? Whats the compression look like? I hear it and it sounds rough. Knowing why it was locked up could narrow it down without having to...
