Re: THROBBIN RODS What's the HOT set up???

I had steering issues with the sea nymph when I had it.I removed the steering cable from the motor,turned the moter it moved easily,turned the steering wheel it moved easily.Found the bore of the motor where the steering shaft goes in was full of rust.I bought a small hone(like they use for honing brake cylinders)I cleaned that puppy right out and greased it up good put it back together and it was great.The key is motor turned easy disconnected and the steering wheel turned easily when disconnected this elimanated both of those as the source of the binding.good luck.polebreaker

Re: The Tubbs Maiden Voyage

Dave,
I replaced a steering system a few years back and it made all the difference. That is all I know about that so I will shu tup about mechanical issues. As far as your lack of fish...remember this beautiful piece of advice, "Never Leave Fish To Find Fish." It is often hard to adhere to but it is great advice. If you hit in Centre Harbor.....stay there. As far as the rest of your releases it sound like late last year when the salmon seemed to be short biting. This could be a good sign that things are about to turn around on the big pond. Towards the end of last season the bite was absolutely fantastic, then the short bites happenes then th bite was gone. I am hoping that the spring will happen in reverse!
Good Luck with the TUBB!
