a few less now.....but they are smaller.....

I knew I left some that's why I sat there most of the day tight lining is Greek to me so I figure the only way to learn it is to try

I tried something different.....I tied up to a piling and had two poles set out on my driftmaster pole holders in open water.....then I used a spinning rod & reel and tight lined a shiner next to the piling.....dropped it to the bottom and picked it up about 2 ft.....caught 2 that way.....I like it.....love the "bump".....

And my grandson calls me "adventure man"! PS you are definitely the real ADVENTURE MAN.

The final (hopefully) chapter...spent most of the day at the shop with my truck....my mechanic had already told me that this problem was very hard to diagnose.....mainly because the computer diagnostics did not pick up any problems.....after a lengthy discussion, he suggested replacing the "evaporative emissions purge solenoid"....so he did and added some "Seafoam" cleaner (decarbonizing fluid and injector cleaner).....headed home and about a mile away from the shop it died in the middle of the street and would not crank for about 5 minutes....went right back to the shop and this time the diagnostics showed a problem with the "crankshaft position sensor".....replace it and a "crank sensor connector".......seems to run smoother but time will tell.....ready to get back in the boat but will give the truck time to prove it's worthiness......

Good to hear it's fixed. Did he refund you for the other work?

sure is funny

That's something Bruce, sure would make me nervous. Ann would make me trade my truck in over something like that. Years ago I had something similar happen to my old Dodge Power Ram (which I still have). I narrowed it down to the fuel filter. Oh course it doesn't have all the sensors on it. Nice catch by the way - always works for me.
