News:

Welcome to the largest gathering of Arima boat owners anywhere. We are a forum based gathering of Arima Boat enthusiasts that like to pleasure cruise, fish, camp, and hunt. While Arimas are centered in the PNW, we have members across the globe. It is 3/4's water after all. Lurk, join up, and post about your Arima upgrades, family trips, and of course, your fishing exploits. Just remember to add photos whenever possible.

Looks like a lumpy weekend for us

My Arima can handle it...

But I can't  :bigshock:

2015 19' Sea Chaser (2019 to current)
1998 19' Sea Ranger (2003 to 2008)

Lures are designed to catch fishermen not fish.

I took advantage of the nice weather yesterday and went out for some rockfish. The current was ripping, though. I couldn't stay on the spot. A trolling motor with GPS spot lock would have been very useful.

This time of Spring for me is when I like to get all my work done on my boat because it seems the days I can go out, it's either blown out or raining and blown out; April showers bring May flowers.  :jester:

I have a friend with Spot-Lock. He loves it for rockfishing.

After reading some of the posts, I don't think I can afford it. It's crazy expensive to install one. Maybe when I hit the big jackpot.  :jester:

I have enough accessories. A few more and there wont be room to stand.

My friend thinks I'm crazy for buying an anchor winch instead of a spot-lock.

I'm trying to figure out how to mount a TM along with my drum winch.
Will be a lot of expensive gear on the bow of my SR19.
Both have their place in our fishery.
