    tahoe 1950 trailer guide pole

    Huh , the poles on my trailer are at the back and are heavy wall 2"galv pipe and are welded to the frame and dont bend . I slid a bit of 2½" alkathene tube over the pole so it can rotate when the boat contacts it . I often use the pole as a fulcrum in side current or wind .🙂

    flat line trolling for trout

    Every few years we get a Beach mast ( beach trees flower and go to seed ) which provides a banquet for mice and their population explodes . Trout , big ones gorge on the mice and a floating mouse lure gets good results.

    Yamaha 70hp 2007 Clutch Dog assembly help

    I dont know this motor but if you google parts manuals they will often show an exploded view with lines and arrows and stuff to show the order of assembly . Other than that its likely that your model shares the gear case with other 70hp 04 05 yams regardless of the variant, maybe even the 50...

    Fish finders
