Scent Blazer Lures Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Hey Guys, Just thought I'd update the progress of our Research boat, a custom 40ft Blackwatch currently getting built. What are your thoughts on electronics? sounders, radar, GPS etc? Its now at the stage of fit out and would love your input. 40ft Custom Blackwatch Tight Lines Andrew SBC Edited December 20, 2012 by Scent Blazer Lures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.e.p.d Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yeah hard to go past furuno. Guess its personal preference . I'm sure there would be a switched on team at SBL so there wouldn't be any doubt towards the build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GH1952 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Nice boat Just be extra carefull with the side window installation as mine are a pain in the backside with water leaks in a moderate sea although ours is a 36 not 40. we have furuno gps plotter, sounder, and radar over twin screens and couldent be happier.

tomBillfish Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) WOW, what a fantastic looking Big Game fishing boaT. I've been using your lures for a few weeks now and what can I say, love them. My mate gave me one of your marlin lure packs. Started running one for testing and it was the only one to get all the strikes. Now I run all 5 and the teaser chain aswell. I can understand why you need a new research vessel, your onto a winner with your lures. I'm converted...

erroll Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Andrew, Great boat. I'm sure it will be fishy. A bit of feedback for you, I got my first marlin yesterday on one of your lures. It was the only SB out of the three being trolled. I had two of your teasers out also. Fingers crossed it continues. Cheers Erroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanemills Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Smelly pilchards didn't have any dolphin fish lying around. I know it says to try and use the same bait as the lure. Edited January 14, 2013 by Shanemills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erroll Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Thanks Andrew. I stuffed it with chopped up pillie. The teasers too. I got another hit on Saturday on the yellow scad again with pillie but unfortunately it did not stick long. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Nice, close enough is good enough shane!! when we fish the fads before we head wide I gut the dollies and use what ever is in their guts in my chamber or cut the unwanted tail meat off (muscly section) and load it (depends how big the fish is).

Cheers yea I prefer using pillies as they are oily but with the amount of mackerel around I've been doing well on slimy macks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
