    I got a 120 also.Still runs great.A few problems like yours Fuel line had collasphed inside and restrcied fuel.Cant see it from outside. Fuel float stuck ,motor would surge. I would take the boat out on a seperate tank and see how it runs, Oil injectors are very reliable,few problems on mine except top elbow popped off A;sp check if alarm works ,you should hear it when you try and start it. I always check my motor with a laser heat senser.High temp would shut motor down to lazy mode . I check cylider ,compression,sprk jump before replacing parts Any further help im always here john

    It was great today off bear and east temp was down 55 ft and had all the lakers would would ever want to catch,green and white chrome again but spoons also A few salmon also which made it a exciting day.Saw few boats wonder why the lake was a easy troll.A few of the lakers were over 15 ,Can't figure out so few people are on the lake when the fishing is at it's best.Im going to try early for salmon,bass has also picked up

    Hey i bought the searay thinking my wife would like it,hasn"t turned out yet though,sometimes wives just won't fish no matter. Families who fish together stick together,lol

    Well It bit the bullet and bought the fish wench.It worked great especialy that big laker.It was a long fight but not exhausting.My Parkinson has advanced so i can't reel like I use to.The copper of course makes the fight greater.I can't interchnge it to the other reels though,The really good fish took the other penn 345 .Took over half of the 300 yds backer on two long runs before we lost him. Love copper fishing very very productive and larger fish also.

    Hi Nick, We had a excellent day out in front of our port.First day use of the fish wench on a penn 345.It works great on the copper alot of less fatigue for us .You can actually set it and it wll bring in copper on it's own like a rigger.Handles fish great,sort of heavy somewhat but a rod belt or sitting it helps alot.Glad your having a good day.Yesterday big fish came on green and white spinny chrome ,they liked the chrome edge better and green fly.king of kings magnum ,black took a big fish also,a stellar day 40 lb big game works great fles little heavy but it wporks good fishing john

    Had our first day using the fish wench add on on our penn 345 we use for copper.This reel probably would take 500 blood run plusx baker very easy install,the motor was also very quite.Nice to bring in big fish especially draging alot of copper.You can use set it and turn it on and it will do all the work for you.caught some high ten lakers and had also a few kings,the real nice one hit the rod with out the fish wench,.That king took out over 150 uds of backer also.It makes nokie time just that much more enjoyable

    you could have a cracked water jacket.I would look over the lower block and see if there are cracks.No danger unless you push out a soft plug.

    Bass

    john1947 replied to jespy's topic in Bass Fishing

    the bass are shallow early then move out deeper.Had good luck last year late summer.Fish are there different tactics ,clear line and sometimes i use my leadcore when deeper ,very effective last summer don't give up haha

    bass fishing has been productive if your interested .pretty large small mouth around and getting hungry.

    Hi, I joined a bass club this year for a bit of diversion from just trolling .I have talked to some guys about the new sidescan which seems to help alot even with the bass.Ive also heard about the humminbird 360.Nice unit some bugs still though.Just wondered if any of you experience in this new technology.technology. Ive been looking at the gamins gpsmap74sv looks good. as i got two units,178c and a 431.I like the 178c better even if it's a older united Comments welcome. Good fishing john
  24. john1947
    Good day for guys with the new sidscan models.I like the hummingbird 360 but the garmin 74sv is pretty good also. Still can't decide whether to trailer the boss as I just got a new dodge larime to tow it "where the fish are".heard great reports out of Rochester all spring
