Hey all, I'm addicted to fishing, but not great...I figure fake it, til I make it. Anyway I have mostly shimano gear, 2-zodias spin rods w/ stradic ci4+ 3-crucials cast rods w/ curados 1-phenix cast w/ cardiff for salt 1-dobyns champion xp (favorite now) cast w/chonarch mgl 1-13 fish *** black cast w/curado So what I am looking for is a travel rod (bait and cast) in the 1-200 dollar range each I am going up to Idaho to Henry's lake and catch some trout and figuring it would be cool to throw in a backpack for my dirtbike rides also. Right now I have a Fenwick Methods spin which I'm pretty happy with for what it is. I'm looking at the following st.croix triumph fenwick HMG g.loomis signature daiwa ardito 13 fish *** *** Anyone have any experience with these...I like the fenwicks because they have 2 different tips so you can order a rod with UL&L,ML&M,M&MH but would like to hear your guys input. Will be throwing them in my duffle on the plane ride. Much thanks Taryn

I'll have to post a pic of what i did on my canoe next time i get it out. I made a front skeg with a bracket at the front nose of the canoe. Then i attached a line to it so i could lift it when really shallow, going through grass or beaching worked out great for windy days.

is the unit for sale, the chirp model?

where did you find the echomap for 500? Right now i have the echomap 43dv without chirp....I am debating getting the echomap 73sv $849.99 best i've seen, but wondering if a stryker 7sv would do the trick if i used them together? Thoughts? I fish out of a porta-bote or a canoe on small water.

are you sure you are talking about the echomap and not the stryker? That seems like a really good deal, where did you find the link?

100 gallons+572ci=never less than $200.00 i gps'd it and i get 1.5 mpg at 55 and i don't even want to know at 75...lol now my fish collector is a lot better i now have a trolling motor on it...great for the pond i visit
