Hi Guys,
I've been lurking here for a few months but just signed up. I bought a new to me boat back in October and have been out a dozen times or so. We go crabbing in Indian Arm and fish the Cap mostly. We need to try some new areas as we aren't having any luck with the salmon right now.... The boat is an 80s 18' Starcraft with 115 HP Johnson. That's my introduction for now! Thanks for all the help with the threads I've been reading through.
My questions is, do Scotty downriggers ever go on sale? I have two old blue Scotty's and a newer manual one right now. I've been checking Craigslist daily trying to find a good deal on some electric DR's but haven't had much luck. I'd like to get some electrics but I'm not in a huge rush yet. I want to find a good deal for sure. Who has the best value? And do they ever go on sale anywhere? Or should I just keep watching craigslist for some to pop up? I know of guys who have scored two scotty's in mint condition, 60" boom for $350. I'd like to be into it for around that...
Thanks for you help!
