That’s what I figured as it appears that the same prop is maybe 250-350 or so.

So it finally happened. Clipped a shoal and wrecked a prop. The spare is on and everything seems to be fine. The question is, since I’ve been fortunate enough to never needed it before, is this a prop that can be repaired or just replace it? It’s off of a 50hp 4 stroke if that makes a difference. And swapping props on the water is far more difficult than when you’re in your garage but everyone else already knew that.

'cause there isn't enough cups in the water already.... and that's not Tim's fault.

I'm not sure about that. I think I need to start a GoFoundMeFishing to raise money to see if that is just a one-off or not.

Looking to go up in the fall for some grouse hunting and maybe some fishing. Has anyone been there?

Had a chance to fish Nipissing with my son and my brother last weekend. This would have been the traditional opener 8-9 years ago so other than a few wary fish we figured we’d find lots of fish. Just about all were caught on topwater lures including my brother’s pike. Had a number of double headers and one legit triple all with different styles of topwater lures.

Not really. The water wasn't moving the way it should briefly on the weekend but with a little tinkering it was back to racehorse levels. But I figured the motor should get a once over by someone who knows what they're doing after 10 years of just me.

Heading for an index of 10 today. Normally: Bass are hitting on top still.

Thanks, That one would certainly be handy

I’m looking for recos for Johnson outboard service in the Barrie area. What do you have?

I may just have to swing by and hackle, I mean heckle, I mean encourage you.

It's a Mini Kota with 40lb of thrust.

There's nothing it to indicate what size it is. I can find lots up to 50 amps. I might just clean this one up for now and keep looking.

Figured it is a fuse. Now I'm wondering what amps a replacement should be.

Checking my trolling motor battery today and noticed some corrosion that I wanted to clean up. What I’m wondering is what is this little black box that is on the connection?

Maybe more money for lures.

I filled my boat tank this week and I still used Shell premium, but now that it "may contain" ethanol and that was really the only reason I used it, I'm going to check my motor manual and see if can use lower test and just use additives to help with the ethanol. I never really used enough fuel in a season to worry about the added cost of premium but if I can keep a few bucks in my pocket why not.

I'm ok with them being recognized in their own category but not against natural fish.

Well that's disappointing. I've only used Shell premium for my boat and mower. What additives do you guys use for your boats and lawnmowers? I use STP fuel stabilizer and marine stabilizer even with the high test fuel.

If/when I need to redo the light I'll be using LEDs as well.

Since I filled my turkey tag yesterday, today was my day to pull the boat out and give it the once over. New air in the tires, check. Motor turned over just like always, check. No signs of critters. Hookup the batteries to top-up the charge. Bit of tidying up and check the trailer lights and the one side won't light (Insert Grinch joke here). Looks like it is just the bulbs so off to CT to get new ones. Fourteen bucks later and we're road legal again. This now brings the total money I've spent on replacing broken items on this used boat I bought from a member here 10 years ago to..... $27. But if we figure I bought 2 pairs of bulbs when I only needed one, we can round down to $20. The trailer winch strap busted (in may driveway) about 5-6 years ago. Nothing on this boat has given me a moment's grief and while I'd love to upsize a bit I don't think I could give this one up. Tight lines... after we get my brother a turkey.

Fibonacci would aprove.
