Actually “Cannonball” was the name of my first salmon charter boat in the ‘80’s and also my VHF call sign.I don't know but I think he might sell downrigger cannonballs?
Two weeks of isolation @Cannonball would drive me,”CRAZY!!” ?? I know,you have to do it because you were vacationing in Florida. I have been isolating myself from the public a lot lately by fishing of course & today,I am trying my luck for pike,before the pike season closes at the end of this month.No luck yet this morning on catching a pike,but just one big out of season walleye.The day is still young & the sunshine feels great
while fishing along the Thames River for pike. ????@Cannonball: No had other fisher people asking, said I would ask, but if you do I'll put your name out.

Looking good there, Erich! Hey, not vacationing in Florida. We live there every winter. It’s no vacation...I have to work...chasing golf balls, cleaning fish, for 4 months at a time!!??

If I have the right blank on hand for the job, yes.
Thanks Sooo much again Alby for your help on the marine batteries.After all of this research on the marine batteries,I decided to go back to the Deka marine batteries.The only problem now is,Proctor Marine is closed because of the Covid 19 virus,& I ended up ordering 3 Deka marine batteries from somewhere else,but they won’t know,when they will be in!! The waiting game begins to get my new Deka marine batteries.I wonder if I can still run my boat off the main starting battery from my outboard motor.I don’t believe that the 3 electric batteries need to be connected somehow to the starting battery.If they don’t,I should still be able to run my boat,without the 3 marine batteries for my electric motor. Would you know @Alby or any other members on Channel 68 & thanks in advance & tight lines to All & Fish ON!! ??????

Your starting battery is totally separate from your trolling batteries so everything you have connected to it will work including starting your boat. Your good to go fishing just no electric trolling motor for now.

I had to go with my ❤ heart!! @Wave Runner 7 years with the last 3 Deka marine batteries is a “good run!!” Those last Deka marine batteries really impressed me on our last 10 day backcountry fishing trip,but I did also buy a generator yesterday as well,especially for those backcountry,(no hydro),fishing trip‘s,to charge up the marine batteries at the end of each day of fishing. ??????So now your going with the Deka @Red Hering?... and here I always thought only women changed their minds like I change my shirt.

@Red Hering: What size of generator is good for that, have buddy with small one I might buy. TIA

@Red Hering the generator also comes handy to run my mixer to make margaritas
I do get funny looks from other campers going by ?
Hey I don't blame you as you got good service from your Deka batteries for sure Erich. The $200 can still be used for whatever else you might want from Costco so that don't really factor in. Good luck you shouldn't have to wait long for your Deka batteries, I heard @hvyhaul has them on his truck and is on his way. LOL!!!
That is Terrific news @Wave Runner ??? & thanks for letting me know that @hvyhaul has the Deka batteries,and he is on his way!!???

Yup @Wave Runner , nothing but essential products on this essential service LOL. Closest thing so far was a load of Nasal Spray.

and this model was recommended to me by the sales person to charge up my 3 marine batteries for my electric motor,especially while I am on those backcountry,(no hydro),fishing trip’s. I will also send you a personal message about another generator,which is also a good deal right now,and read the pm as soon as you can,for it might be sold anytime. ??
