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. _________________ Tom and Joyce Schulke

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.) |
