Well I was able to raise it a couple inches, shifted some weight fwd and picked up some speed. She'll fly at a screaming 6 mph LOL .

Since the motor is so light, I have an idea for a clamp on extension I think I'm going to try, at least to see if raising the motor fixes the problem before drilling into the boat and mounting one...

Based on the other replies and what I've been reading, thats what I though too.

Whats the easiest most cost effective way to do this? a jack plate? Don't really like the idea of drilling through...

Here's a pic of the motor. How does the mounting placement look?

If I can I'll post a pic, it looks bent to me.

Just watched a couple of youtube vidoes of teh same / similar motor and they were easliy moving twice the speed I achieved. I also saw they created more of a defined wake where as I was just seeing...

Thanks, I'll take a look at how low its setting and try shifting weight around a little. 12 mph I could live with, I'm now where near getting on plane. I'm not exagerating when I say my...

Just got my first aluminum boat, 14/36 polar craft john boat. It has a 70ish 5 1/2 hp Johnson motor on it. Motor seems to be running great, and looks like it turning lots of water, but moves the...

Prayers sent.

I buy gold fish for about $4.50 a lb for catfhish bait. Usually about 15 +/- depening on their size per lb. Med minnows, same price, but about 10x as many per lb. Also buy small carp for catfish bait...

Man I'm glad I found this post. Went out yesterday to check on my fuel supply, noticed a little half dollar size pool of black liquid under the motor. I thought I had a leak. After reading this, I...

Thumbs Up , nice catch.

Nice catch.

I don't dubt it one bit, thats why I said don't judge it off my restults, I don't know what I'm doing LOL.

No luck on the Crappie for me, but I would totaly judge the bight off my crappie catching skills LOL .

I don't see too much discussion on jig hook sizes or styles. I was using jigs with minnows this weekend and seemed to be missing fish. I up the hook size and seemed to do better.

Seems like...

I didn't see it. thats what I was looking for.

I think I found it through a google search though 2011-1012 Mississippi Outdoor Digest – Hunting and Fishing Regulations Guide from the Mississippi...

Heading back to my home state of MS tomorrow, have fished it since last year and wanted to scroll through the regs first. I went to the DWFP site, but there is not a lot of info there. Is there a...

Heading over Friday, any one been recently?

Thanks guys. I put 13 keepers in the boat Saturday, so I'm not totally lost, but not far from it LOL. Accidentally caught a couple, when I guess I was technically trolling, had just left my line in...

Where is the best place to find some general how to info on rigging, jigging, trolling techniques, etc? Just search the forums? Are there articles posted that I just am not seeing? Another web site?

Just wondering what yall are using and would reccomend for a combo crappie / bream pole with reel.

I'm not hard core into pan fishing just yet so not looking for top of the line or custom, just a...

Thanks. I know minnows are taboo for some of you serious crappie fishermen, but I'll take all the help I can get LOL.

Thanks - I'll have to check that ramp out Thumbs Up. My in laws have a place on the lake, but don't crapie fish at all, he is a bream fisherman extrodinaire LOL..

I'll confess I still haven't...

A bit "off topic" I guess, but I'm gonna be in MS for a few days over the weekend and would like to do some catfishing. I'll be staying on Bee Lake but thought I might want to give the river a shot...

Pillows has goldfish and carp but no rice slicks.

I just did my first boil this week, we ate it all so it must not have been too bad, but I doubt I'll be doing many more, darn things was $3.65 at Delta Crawfish in Paragould. I just went off advice...

I trotline occasionaly myself, and as a rule I do not touch another persons line knowingly and if I do accidentaly snag it, I do my best to put it back just like it was found. However, if its an...

We were fishing in and around the channel there to begin with upto 26 FOW , but other than the gar the bight was real slow. We were using minnows any where from just off the bottom to 6' deep when in...

Finaly made it down from AR down to MS to fish with my dad last week. Hit the water Thursday PM and Friday and Sat AM.

Thursday was a gar fest - we landed 9 and lost about as many. Couple small...
