Interesting reply by OTRA but will a cap be able to handle it, a small cap may be rendered useless by the motor current draw. Maybe a diode isolator in-line before the cap would help - All this if you get the problem of course..... Just thought, I have run a sonar and motor on the same cranking batt...

Very nice, it's good to see some home mades out there, mine are not good enough yet to post here but I am working on it. Still finding it tough to get enough bucktail to provide a good body profile.

TRy the Chandlery, I'm sure I've seen some in there, it's on Poulin just off Richmond Road.

I got a plastic coated chain for this reason

don't forget the chain, most anchor types do not work very well without the chain - it helps put the correct angle on the anchor so that it "bites" in, 4' is typical for small boat anchors

had one last year Pickeral fishing in the Ottawa, hell of a fight, came in around 3 1/2 feet. My guess is that if you target them in the Ottawa you're gonna get 500 cats for every Sturgeon........

been thinking the same myself, mainly for my muskie lures for next year. I have read some good reviews on the triplegrips but they only go to No2

So Santa got me a nice new Guest 2-bank charger this and I've been reading the mounting instructions - strange I know but I thought I had better do this as power is involved. The instructions state an 8" clearance all round and not to mount on carpet. well, my Princecraft battery bay is carpete...

if casting is your main preferencce then match the rod to your boat - by this I mean if you have high sides you may want to think about an 8'! figure 8'ing with a 6' is tough on the knees whereas an 8' is just a dip. Personally I love the StCroix series and after a recent break and swift replacement...

I'll be there, I'll try and remember to bring a ABU C3 price list with me as I shall be ordering some parts this winter.

I'm looking for a new rod too, I have a 7' Daiwa now but it's time to upgrade. I think I shall be looking at StCroix, their warranty and customer service is second to none. I shall look at the recommended ones above. As for line on the Ottawa, you don't really need finesse with the water colour, but...

take a look in Laurentian, they sponser this site so deserve a look. I bought my MK 24v 80PDAPUS from there. Just off Hunt Club by Airport Pkwy. Easy to miss though, turn right (W-E) 100' after the Bus entrance just after Pkwy. they stock some MK, was there today but was looking at chargers so don't...

I have the medium, sometimes wish I got the bigger one, I just can't resist picking up new lures when I see something interesting. The Lakewoods are great boxes, well made with a professional feel. The medium has 2 side pockets for bit and pieces and front pouches for quick access to your pliers and...

if in a removable tank, let it stand for a few days, syphon off the stuff on top, careful not to let the tube get on the bottom where the water is. Add some stabilizer and put it away for next year. Whats left will be small enough to burn off when noone around. If in the boat tank, disconnect the fe...

I think you may have to wait a while for that feature. It will need a fancy gps unit with an interface for the TM, and would only work for selected units. I imagine Lowrance are working on it. The auto pilot just keeps the boat direction stable, a great feature, I have one and would not be without it.
