What if there is no fuse in the head unit of trolling motor?

thanks CW...all information is good...

Thanks for all the information. I love tying jigs so I know I will love making the ice spoons. They wear the white bass out with spoons at Sardis in the summer, Thanks again. PB

This is my new DYI project for the Winter Thank you 🙏 for this awesome project

Where did you get the motor

I was looking into these, and wondering is there a crappie jighead mold that is for owner's hooks.

Awesome video! Thank you!

Great video. "Side cutters" I have been making my own jigs. Now another hobby. Lol

Great video! Loved the crash course! I plan on picking up the hobby this winter and have been looking at various do it molds and heating pots. Definitely will get a pot like yours but I have been having a hard time finding do it molds with 1 single size hook slots that has multiple cavities. It seems they mainly make them with multiple sizes per mold. Anyway, any advise on the molds I'm looking for i.e. 1/16 with 6 cavities and any advise for a person new to the hobby before I got buying a bunch of stuff including hooks lol

I am having trouble finding the 7 thread name weave charts could you please help

I think throwing led to the ground is a very bad idea

Great video lots of detail I am thinking about buying a crappie jig mold and was wondering what you would recommend and what is your favorite size for crappie?

the fuse fix interference noise, that dont make sense .

Thanks for the info

The device is not in the water. Trying to test the sonar with out the boat being in the water, the interference will almost blank the screen out instead of showing a small spike. In the water it has no interference. This is just one of the many steps to removing interference on a sonar. The majority of the problems are caused by a lack of grounding.

Looks like its still interfering when you hit the trolling motor power button...

Have the Ulterra 112v: while reading depth on Humminbird 897 Combo-then reading while go from known 10, 12’ depth to 50-70 ‘ when troll motor forward/reverse is activated. Is this same interference ir possibly associated interference you experienced from the blown 3 amp fuse???? Or is this something different??? I Have not ckd the powerhead 3 Amp fuse yet… any input! Thanking you in advance from deep South Louisiana Bayou country

Yes it was. It was throwing a lot of interference on the sonar. I later found a worn wire feeding power to he motor head.

Was your trolling motor still working normal , with the blown fuse?

I specialize in ultralight rods so surf rods would be out of my area of expertise. I use mostly Fuji guides. All of my stock came from when Merrick tackle was still in business but there are several other suppliers out there. I actually still have a lot of stock left over from Merrick. I even still have som GLoomis and St Croix blanks 😁

Wow what a set up -very nice! Im just using a phone book and a board. I can't decide what brand of guides to get, from PacBay, american Tackle, Fuji to Torzite vs aconite etc. Would you share any links to guides you prefer for larger surf rods, casting! THANKS

Where do you order your spoons????? Thanks in advance

If ya dont want to chip off flux just drop all finished jigs into thinner bath . Then shake. Then paint.

Kind gentlemen. However hes doing this the hard way. You can find bake olite backing holders with hook holders. I could of done 14 of these in the time he did one.

What size hook

Where could i possibly purchase those molds? Awesome job man

Yes.

What power wrapper is that?...renzetti ?

So what blew the fuse? What is that fuse for?

And, of course, I watched it the 2d time AFTER I made my first version.

Watching a second time and missed a couple of techniques the first time. Amazed at how easy this is. Thanks so much!

How are you using the 1/8 and 3/16 heads for crappie? Tubes? Enjoying your videos. I have the same mold and use it for bass jigs . Ozark Old Timer

Thanks Dave great video!!

Me too on breaking off the sprue, instead of cutting it. Nice video as always, thanks for that.

But what does that 3 amp fuse control that won't prevent the normal function of the motor if blown? What does it do that when blown, introduces interference pick up up by the depth finder?

Excellent video!

Wow-you have probably just filled up the last available time I have with a new hobby. How cool!

Have you considered sickle hooks? Just curious.

How interesting!

Outstanding!

Nice shoelace jig! IMHO confidence is the key, along with boat control.

Well I’ll be a shoot how much are you charging for that jig lol

Ironic moment of the day. Man with no shoes using shoelaces for bait.

There was a wiring problem with the power wire coming up the trolling motor shaft. Once the problem was resolved I stopped blowing the fuse. If the fuse blows more than once there is an underling problem somewhere other than the fuse. I didn't find the problem until after I made the fuse video.

The fuse is in a brown wire which is a ground wire per Minnkota wiring schematic. Pretty much explains why those adding an external ground wire got the same result. The deal is finding the ROOT CAUSE of the problem. What causes the fuse to blow??? Dave found his and corrected it. Make sure you find and correct yours, which may well not be the same as Dave's. Or the problem WILL return. Just sayin'.

Thanks for the video, it’s nice to know the correct way to fix a tip.

Great tip on tips buddy lol

I'm one that for sure just wanna go fishn but those necessary repairs do have to be taken care of to enjoy catchn when we're on there water..... Hope you get your boat back soon....

Was wondering about you buddy!!
