on mine, i noticed if I leave the gas line attached on a hot day it, the tank swells and will push gas up into carb and it will spill out and pool in same spot. i always disconnect now when done for day. not sure if thats whats happening in your case but something to look into.

Rapala fillet knife is a staple in every tackle bag . what lake did you go to Ldubs? I hit san pablo Res last 2 weekends and limits both time. Caught my first lightning trout. looks like he was swimming near a nuclear plant lol

yes, thats what I did. i also used 3m heavy duty spray adhesive. seems to hold fine. really easy to install. just make sure you have some sharp razor blades to cut the vinyl.

i got mine on amazon, although more per foot, 2 day shipping was free because I have prime. when i looked at the website to order by yard, shipping was 48 bucks and it would arrive in 3-4 days. worked out about same cost but shipped faster. as for the product itself, took boat out first time...

is it a micro SD card?

i got sick of stinky coffee and blodd stained carpet that always catches hooks. i ripped all mine out and replace it with Nautolex Marine Vinyl Flooring...

Im gojng Monday for sure, trying to decide between Pardee and Camanche. i have 2 downriggers so depth wont be an issue. i think Pardee may have Kokes too which re fun to fish for. Camanche is a little closer though. Which side of Camamche did you launch from?

thanks for the info Ldubs. Im sick of waiting on Del valle and lame East Bay Parks dept, heading up to Camanche next Monday. i have not fished camanche in 20 years. looking forward to trolling at a new lake.

how was the crowd at Camache? was the ramp packed?

Thats good news about del valle but someone from EB parks said the ramp will be last to open. no clue why.

Nice catch Ldubs. what lake did you end up at? I spoke to EBMUD and San Pablo should be opening in next couple of weeks. no word on Del Valle, starting to worry it might stay closed. I have not been able to get out since all this started since the lakes are all closed.

Got the pods mounted on boat along with new LED bow light. the scotty post for the light bar came off a spare scotty drink holder I had laying around. The bow light will be wired to switch panel and ill use a quick disconnect socket for the light pods.

Ldub, you read my mind. I may put in a flush mount but I need to make sure i have enough height to clean the nav light. ill probably get it mounted today or tomorrow. ill post some pics.

Yesterday, I made a removable mini light bar out of some old scrap aluminum i had laying around as well as some old rod scotty parts I had. ill mount the scotty base to bow.

Thanks for advice on here. I installed the Mini Jacker plater and got motor mounted. I ended up with 5" of lift. Another inch and a half would have been ideal (thats what she said) but i did not want the jack plate up that high. all in all pretty easy to do, very sturdy.

I ended up buying the mini jacker plate by TH marine. installed it today, piece of cake. very sturdy. i need to do some clean up, cut off the ends of the bolts and removes the old controls before I set the motor on it. i installed it to get the motor 5 inches higher which puts the engine at...

add 2 strokes :D

Finally getting around to posting an update. got most of the vinyl done on boat, need to do one more small section but ran out so will need to reorder some. It came out pretty good for about 300 bucks in material. I was able to reuse most of the wood and just replaced the hardware. I added some...

yikes, thats scary. thanks for heads up. I set the motor on boat yesterday and it about 4 inches too low, the mini jack plate should work perfect. i little pricey at 100 bucks though but since i only paid 700 for motor it fits my budget. i ordered the throttle and controls yesterday, should be...

thanks guys. Picked up motor yesterday. 9.9 Long shaft merc for 700 bucks. its in great condition and was just serviced in 2019 and have all receipts. now I need to figure out what I need control wise. it did not come with any of the controls.
