DR's are nice even on small trout lakes. You might get some odd looks, but the ability to put your lure at the EXACT depth is a big help. It's not tough to learn the depths achieved based on weight on line, line diameter, and speed, but to put your lure at a specific depth is something I really value much more now that I have DR's...fishingmachine wrote:well kutt i havent got around to naming it
Derick: Thanks i will jhave to check that out but i dont know where i am gonna use a downriiger except at pine in the summer for browns

Kutt,
I don't know about the walker bay but I have a 9' plastic Basshound and it is rated at 5 hp max.(Man that would be scary)

RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
yeah mine can hold a 6 horse motor and that would be fun
RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
That's what I was thinking...it'd go sooo fast...like 35 or something. My boat goes around 22 full out and with my motor on FM's boat...it'd go like 35mph.Coastfishin wrote:Kutt,

RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
DUDE. PM's or new threads. I'm more then willing to discuss such matters that don't clog up threads with just small talk and I don't wanna make small little posts that everyone else has to weed through.fishingmachine wrote:it would be fun to try though and sam would a downrigger work on beaver lake

RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
okay sorry dude but no i am very impressed with the design and stability of my livingston with three people on it ii was quite amazed
RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
Don't be sorry...This is where the site upgrade will come in handy...the instant chat forum will be sweet...Marc talked about this...FM you need to direct all your questions to one large PM rather than sending 100's of PM's to members and infiltrating their inbox's bud...somebody had to say it.Sam Kafelafish wrote:DUDE.

RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
i am sorry to all members on this site as i will stop doing what i have been doing and keep my posts informative
RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
Hey FM, you should just keep it named the north star. It already has the name on it, and it is a good name. just my suggestion.

Fishingmachine, your boat looks like it could use some work. Some new decals might do the trick. None the less, not too shabby as long as it's seaworthy.

RE:MY NEW LIVINGSTON
Fishingmachine, its the small things on a man's boat that really define him. I see you in your boat with a pirate flag and a plank. Something to add some character. Some rod holders, an anchor, and a nice engine might also help! :farao:fishingmachine wrote:actually i dont really understand can u elaborate
