Might have jumped the gun on the pump purchase. Might see if i can return the Johnson and swap it for a Rule 360. Hopefully BCF are understanding!

Thanks mate, big help. Do you reckon it would pick up water slow trolling livies, say 1-2 knots?
-
I did consider that, though the only places i fish are the hacking and botany bay so i dont have alot of travel time between fishing spots, 5 min max so i dont think i really need the pick up. although if you could point me in the direction of where to find them i would definately prefer to have one than not.

After some research looks as though yes the pump will interfere with the transducer. How far away should i mount the pump to avoid this. Also some tips for drilling holes in the hull of a shiny new boat would be appreciated.

Couple of pics, please let me know if you see anything wrong and give me your opinion on the pump mount location.

So so i bought the pump pictured below and worked out that my spare ACC switch is already hooked up to the power supply. Couple of questions: -Since the ACC switch is already hooked up do i just connect the positive cable to the switch? -Should i earth the negative cable on the battery or somewhere else? -Below is a pic of where im thinking of mounting the pump, mainly because i wont have to drill straight into the hull, is it to close to the transducer?

Thanks guys

Gonna go the simple route, small drum container with an external bilge pump and an outlet for drainage. The thing is i know zero to nothing about electrics and batteries, my question is could i connect the bilge pump to my existing battery or would i need a new one and also how do you go about connecting the power. Thanks guys Sam

After doing a bit of research on home made ones i decided to have a crack, didnt come out too bad. Old beach rod, alvey reel and 100 pound mono.

Hey guys, im looking at purchasing a down rigger for my boat its a Quintrex 420 Explorer (shown below). Mainly for trolling live squid and yakkas around botany bay and out from the Port Hacking. Just something fairly basic as i dont want to spend to much money. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Sam
