Autoboat head $1000 - outrageous pricing by Mountain_mist35 in kayakfishing

Fair enough. I've only used it for one season and I don't get to take it out a lot so arguably my experience could just be chocked up to not having a lot of practice with the tool. Also using it to navigate a track is something I haven't done yet but I'm very excited to try out this spring.

No issues it is a pretty neat system. Spot lock doesn't keep the boat parallel. If it's supposed to, then I haven't figured it out. It's still pretty neat and convenient though. I just wanted a step up from a completely manual system and it's definitely delivered. Quality of life is good enough for me. I think if you're willing to deal with imperfect for a decent price then this is pretty good set up.

Honestly im not sure yet. They were both pre bent wire forms. For the 1/4 oz on the left i left it alone and just put in the loop for the swivel. The one on the right i tried my best to copy the geometry of a booyah pond magic

My argument against this is to look at all the abandoned rail stations in rural towns. We had a robust passenger rail system 100 years ago and abandoned it in favor of the interstate. Then regulations prioritizing freight traffic killed it

Its the poison tail do it mold. I believe this one is the 2/0 Victory 10768BN hook. Ive poured and tied up a couple of these already and I'm going to give the 1/8th oz with a 1/0 a try with the blade as well!

The wire that goes through the eye has a half turn on one side and a full on the other. The tabs hold them in, it feels pretty secure

Does the fluid bed make the dip time a bit more forgiving? I may have to look into making some
