  1. Gonna give you some links here.

    Franks Great Outdoors has great deals on everything. Here are the planers. You need to specify left (port) and right (starboard).

    OR18 release that you NEED for the front. Pricey but beleive me a must.

    This is the tattle flag system I use. Cheap and very effective. Here's the "how to"

    If you want a decent rod holder system and don't wanna break the bank, take a look at these. I have them on my boat.

    Or Big Jon holders.

    Hopefully this gives you some ideas.

    Also , when you fish in the summer do you use harnesses and spoons or do you still use cranks? I guess my question is , will cranks catch fish all year ?

    THanks for the info Wes, i have heard of all those places you mentioned have been to catawba and have launched out of Huron a couple of times. Purchased a sonar/Gps combo and a couple of line counter combos from cabelas over the weekend. Next will be rod holders and planer boards. Like your idea of the tree style rod holder, looking into that. Where do you buy your boards? Thanks. Mike
  4. If you run offshore boards you will DEFINATELY want to upgrade the front clip to the OR18 clips. They keep the boards from coming unclipped.
  5. Mike, I run Offshore boards. As for launching it depends where the hot bite is. Fenwick Marina if I'm fishing the reef complex by the camp perry range area. Catawba if I'm fishing West side of the Islands. Mazurick (on Marblehead) if I'm fishing Kellys Island. Later in the summer I will launch in Vermillion when the fish move east. I sometimes camp in a pop-up camper that my dad pulls up when we go. Most of the time I stay in my buddy's house up there. He bought an old, small farm house just to stay in while at the lake...nice. I'm 200 miles from the lake so I always make it at least a 2 day trip.

    Wes, Mike again, just wondering what boards you use church off shore etc.? Also when you do go to erie where do you launch from? Do you do it in one day or stay? I am stayin for a week in july but if i can find people to fish with and want to make a weekend out of it , do you know of a good place to stay.Thanks again Mike (maybe someday i will run out of questions..... lol)

    Hey reeltime, a few questions if you dont mind.You seem pretty knowledgable on this trolling thing. I have fished erie in the past, but only drifting/casting, would like to start trolling.Just bought a new 17 ft. crestliner this year.Now i really dont know what i am doing as far as trolling.Spent the winter watching videos trying to learn.Due to the lack of fishing partners, work shedule, distance from the lake ect., i am not sure how often i will be able to fish (erie). I dont have a problem with the distance it is finding people to go with.Anyhow, not sure how much the wife is gonna let me spend, she says get what i need, but doesnt realize what we are talkin'. Can a person troll with bait casting/spinning,or is trolling rods/line counters a must.Any advice/suggetions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Mike
