Dave
I’ve fished out of Pequaming with my friend Hank Clow on his CD-22 a few times. We used his 8 hp Yamaha for trolling and it worked very well and used minimal fuel. I fished Isle Royal most of July with my 25’ C-Dory and trolled with my 9.9 Yamaha for Lake Trout and Coho most everyday. It’s connected to my main and I control speed with my wireless remote. I thought about the electric mounted on the main motor and discarded the idea. With the 9.9 I can slow down to about 1.5 mph.....that’s slow enough for walleyes.

I fished in the bay by you for a couple days in August with little luck but did really well out by the Huron Islands. I saw a Rosborough at the Baraga Marina in August. Out on the Erie Canal for September but already dreaming about fishing Superior next summer. It would be fun to get together.

Cool, Tom.

How is your kicker connected to the main engine?

Thanks,
Dave

I use a Panther Adjustable Outboard Kicker Motor Steering Connector Kit but there are others that are similar. I had to bend mine to work but that’s typical.

Thanks, Tom. I have ordered one and it should be on the boat early next week. (If I can break away from the other vagaries of life for a bit.)
