I like that setup a lot Nessy. I learned the hard way about swivels on conibears... You are right you can nevER have enough swivels. The more the bettER. I've been looking for a bettER setup than I currently have on my conibeaRS and may have to use this as a guideline. Thanks. P.S. - Also note my use of the letter "r" in words that end in it

No chopping ice for me....Spring time sets...cross overs, skinny channel runs, stink stick sets, pull outs....where trap may not be fully submerged...but plenty of cable to get to deep water.

No chopping ice for me.... I don't blame you. I was out yesterday and the sixteen inch bar on my saw wasn't enough. If I have the energy, I'll try again tomorrow with the twenty-four inch bar.

Last week I almost ran out of ice auger. Don't remember the last time that happened down here on the coast. At this rate I'm gonna run out of season before the ice starts going out. You guys must have a pile of ice!

You guys must have a pile of ice! The snow insulated the ice in spots where it didn't get blown off. We have four feet of snow on the ground. I'm going to try again today.

No Maine folk in my family Nessy... At least none that I'm aware of.
The "Ayuh" is a memory of a cartoon from my childhood. One of the characters was your stereotypical Maine resident.
