T-BONE and myself will be in the Shoremaster shelter booth area as of right now. Those that want the first batch of product get them while we have them, Last year the R&R was sold out after a day and a half.

Guys.......I have seen alot of mention of the Rock 'n Reel this week in here and other threads. I know people have alot of questions about when they are going to be available. They are in production as I write this. Due to still being a small time operation, production becomes a bit of a problem. Maybe someday, it will become something more than that. But for now, capital and assets needed for producing product are not as plentiful as one would like. The demand is there, there's no doubt. It's come a long way since I first developed the thing four years ago with the help of some friends along the way. Without their help in design, field testing, finance, manufacturing and publicity, it would not even be where it is today. I am grateful to one and all. They will be available again this winter. We will be at the Ice Show in St. Paul again this year too. So if you go, be sure to stop by and say hello......(Here comes the Ice!)......T

I know there has been a lot of speculation /guessing as to when these will be available, but based on WallEYES post is it safe to assume that the first production batch of these will go to the ice show, eliminating any chance to purchase one of these through this site before early ice?

Thanks,

Oh Yeh! the R&R looks so good out in front of the others in the new artical of the ice guide.And I'll tell you from experince that you will detect the lightest bite on the R&R. So dont hesitate to get them!If your drag is set right, you wont have to panic and bust your butt on the ice trying to get to it.Because 99.9% of time you will have that fish on. Your gonna love these things.><sUMo>------------><> Jig Stick

The reason that Marine Man and I keep asking about getting them is that Marine Man live 150 miles from St Paul and I like 200 from there so it isn't likely that we will be able to get down there to purchase one. That is why we would like to buy ASAP and get them shipped out to us. It not that we don't understand that these things take time but we missed out last year and we would hate to have that happen again.

They will be able to be available at the St. Paul show. T-BONE is trying to get them available before the show, He will give you the scoop when they will be available...so be patient, they will be worth the wait.

The RnR's are still in production. As of right now today-the tub mounted ones are being built in New York state. The stand alone units are being built here in MN. Since we are small potatoes in this industry, it takes quite an effort to get things done. I hope you all can be patient for just a little longer. We're doing the best we can to get product out there. Since it's not something that's stamped out in China by the thousands, it just naturally takes longer to produce. Stay tuned in here for the latest info.

Bob Cunningham-I'll try to shoot you an e-mail tomorrow.........

Jig Stick......you're the best P/R man going. What's your day job?.....;^).......T

Paul thanks for the offer we might just take you up on that. We are still debating on whether or not we will be able to make it. In a way I shouldn't go because I have a slight problem of spending money on ice fishing gear. I think it must be some kind of illness. We will let you know though thanks again.

      By Wanderer · Posted

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
