  1. If it's just hole shot you can plug vent holes on your prop. The kit is $10. And if you experience blow out a prop ring might help. Basically a rubber band fits on prop.
  2. Hi was a great prop, I ran 1 on my Sprint for years. If a boat is prop correctly you can't over drive it.
  3. I but all old gas threw my truck mixed with plenty fresh stuff. The truck has the best computer thing will basically burn water.
  4. Dog out of hole, blowing out are all just hard on your engine. The correct prop should plane your boat at max operating weight and top speed should be just below your max rpm.
  5. So a do! Get 6 gauge wire and the proper connectors. Whitby Marine has this open weekends and holidays. Also get stainless steel buse also at Whitby marine supply. Bring this as close to your unit as possible. If you have exacter transducer cable don't wrap in ball and tape. You can buy holders foe exacter cable. I always have dividers tackle boxes, cut duvets on either side and wrap exacter cable.
  6. It's all in the install. Spend a few dollars and do a good install you will get great results. There's also a normal mode and advance mode you will find it in menus.
  7. Erie is just becoming general knowledge for the 3 rd time in my life.
  8. I was at Playa Pasquera 3 weeks ago. Plan your shore fishing around high tide charts are available. Mustard #2 stainless bait hooks where the best for shrimp and bread. I used spider thread to hold shrimp and bread on better. You will make many friends with 30lb mono. The Eagle brand from wal mart $3 bulk spool. I bought a 4 piece travel rod off Amazon 8 ft so each section 2 ft . I had a 5500 salt reel on it but a 4000 would be better. A selection of rubber core sinkers would have been nice. We trolled with paddleboat worked good .
  9. Lew you could move that boat 1-2 inches back taking amazing amount of tongue weight off.
  10. I would trade my truck for new GMC Safari in a minute.
  11. Sometimes, could be and most laughable money making schemes.
  12. So you just generally hate all fishing unless it fit your narrow mind. Enjoy your hate of me. I fish to eat, I fish for enjoyment , I fish to improve skills, I fish derby's, I fish tournaments. All within the law. 100% Fisherman.
  13. How did spring fishing turn into tournament fishing discussion. I'm a 100% user of the fishing resource. I don't think fishing will be outlawed, it makes me proud every time I see kids show up on the eastern ditches. I was the guy that went to dozens of meeting until the law was changed to all year fishing below CN tracks on all creeks.
  14. It's a real mess fishing for spring pike. All the baits I use are bass baits jerkbaits ,spinnerbaits,fluke style , senkos. The location is exactly the same.
  15. Just back from Holquin don't think it's to close to Veradaro. I bought a 8ft travel rod off amazon GoTour brand 4 piece packed easily in suitcase. The 5500 Shimano Utera salt reel was a little big for this stick 4500 salt likely better and 4000 freshwater would work. I also bought a Goture 11 ft collapse rod 700gm this 1 was junk guide placement just awful. I will get model numbers later. For all saltwater high tide is the game. Yes for the shrimp from cook 3 peso should get a bunch raw not cooked. take a small sandwich cooler bag from dollar store and zip lock bags for ice and shrimp. I put 4 beers or 2 and 2 beer pop. Cubans love a cold drink. Take Spider Thread with you to hold shrimp or bread on. Number 2 or 3 stainless bait hooks are good. I find the hand lining fascinating cant wait to try. Buy 30 lb Eagle Claw mono from Wal Mart $3 I waited to find the right guy and got about 6 hugs and 20 thank you. The 20 lb only so so. You clean raw shrimp and thread on hook then spider thread whole thing. The Lady Fish yellow black stripes will drive you crazy. We caught Yellow tail snapper most around 16 inches trolling with paddleboat . We needed a selection of split shot or rubber cores. Caught baby groupers 5 inches dragging bottom. The drop-off was a haul by paddleboat but that's where we need to be for larger fish. You will get offers for guide trips every day. Somebody has a friend or cab driver and friend with boat. I didn't take any of these offers. My fun is using the skills I've got make the adjustments to catch fish so great trip. Chumming with bread or shrimp heads and shells always helps. Any fishing line put 30 lb is what they need. Any hooks but stainless bait hook #2. And for the ladys hand creams and moisturizers , nail polish. Man I would like to be on the loose 20 year old.
  16. Had a S....T Show last fri with operator fired chainsaw up a 8 am, 6 wheel dragging huts around plus walk outs. Noise never stop to 11:30. Operator they would bite anyway.
  17. Have you run this boat with current setup. Did it feel front end light. Think I would temporary install battery's maybe just on floor near the permanent location just to get idea. Another thing get some of those mid western walleye sites. Michigan , Wisconsin.
  18. I don't waste my time worrying about what people think.
  19. I had a 1967 Toyota Crown used piece of crap. 2 clutches and blew it up twice. It didn't like being treated like a race car. It looked like a Rambler.
  20. I had a S10 with the 2.8 extended cab that was good up to 175k when I started towing a boat with it. Pop goes the weasel and a couple clutches. The only real dog 2010 Sierra 1500 with 75K started squeaking like a fan belt. had my mechanic look at it first new it was crank near back. GM insisted was de laminating cam week tear down was ready on fri. I was sitting with sales when call came. Good news your truck is done bad news its not fixed. Good news you own it I traded for 2011 that now has 280K.
  21. I was expecting Russia to be tough after losing first game. Stopped watching after 4-0 . Jason Bourne for the 5th time seemed better.
  22. I remember going into drug store for oil of Anise. Long strait hair mid back about 20 not sure why I got strange look from pharmacist .
