Well, gave my boat mechanic his Christmas present al little early this year. The last few times I went fishing I couldnt crank the motor using the choke so luckily it would crank without it, then immediately pulling up the choke lever keeping it running until it got that one good rev. I was going fishing last Thursday nite and after hooking up in the afternoon I could not get the motor to even sound like she'd fire off so I decided to strip my holders and all the stuff from the boat and go ahead and take 'er in to get it fixed before I really did get back into fishing again (work keeping me from it right now ). I thought I was looking at a dirty carb or something in that nature that was keeping the gas from flowing but wound up being the power pack. :o Man, talking about a downer here at Christmas time. Anyways, she's ready to go now and I cant wait to for ONE MORE WEEK so I can get time to fish again. (Got nine days off beginning next Saturday! :D ) Absolutely too many fish are being caught and I'm stuck working 12 hrs a day right now!
Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.

Fishing is done for me till spring,unless this warm spell in MI continues after the holidays i might just get out once or twice before it freezes overs.
I got invited to a private pond in the spring where there are monster slabs and nice trophy size bass.I love my neighbors! really looking forward to it,because i'm gonna teach my 2 year old how to hold a fishing pole.
Do not give up yet Matt S. I just walked down to the lake yesterday and put a dozen in my hand. Let them go as I still have about ten pounds of fillets from summer in the freezer.
It is not about the equipment you have to use,
It is about how you use the equipment you have. :D
