  1. Yes I agree, love the reports with pics. Once again you did it!!! Congrats to you and your friends morning. If nothing else you won't starve this winter.
  2. You are very welcome, even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. Glad you were able to find the problem fast.
  3. If it starts by bypassing the start section of the solinoid, check the voltage at the little wire or post, should be no less than 2/10th of a volt difference from battery voltage to start wire. A solinoid takes a full 12 volts at the start term to pull in the sol. If that checks out it could be an ignition problem not sending the 12v. to the sol. Being its so intermittent that this will be a tuff one. Good luck with it!!! PAP
  4. All the boats I ever had were outboards, never had any major problems, but I always wanted an I/O, well I'm ready to go with a newer 4 stroke outboard, my buddy has one amazing!!! Can troll at 1.0 mph with his motor you can drop rpm's to get any speed you want. All with paddles on the steering wheel right side is up in rpm left side is down, the paddles are like the shift models of a automatic trans on a sports car, like my wife's honda sport.
  5. That's the best news I heard all day!!! Like stated above, I hope he gets what the scumbag deserves, like a broken finger for ever thig he has stolen. Even 10 broken fingers isn't good enough for this action!!
  6. I've seen some slobs come out of Canadian lakes but nothing like this fish!!! What is the record weight for LakeO?? I would say pretty close, anyway congrats to all that made a dream come true for one lucky sole!!!
  7. Kevin you are the Master of a walleyes disaster!!! You got that river fishing down to a science. Congrats to another full ticket of eyes. PAP.

    30" walleye

    X 100, thank you for being a true sportsman and caring about about our future and the younger fishermen / ladies!!!
  9. Congrats to you and the kids!! I don't need to ask "did they enjoy themselves as their smiles speak for themselves". I don't thing my girls will get up this year as they are back to school already. I don't know what ever happened to the first Monday in September?
  10. Sweet looking ride!! I have almost the same boat, except mine is 8ft shorter, I also know about the expense of these boats I also rebuilt 1 motor and complete lower unit, but I guess that goes with whatever brand you may own!! Good luck with the sale of your Sea Ray, they certainly handle the big water with ease!!
  11. This whole bunch of guys and ladies deserve a 2 thumbs upðŸ‘👠I think it awesome when people take the time out of their busy schedule and put a lot of time and commitment into a event such as this!! Nothing makes me feel better than seeing a young child with a fish and a smile. Congrats to all that put forth so our future is educated on what it takes to make LakeO a world class fishery. Excellent job by all, thank you!! PAP.
  12. Holy crap that's a whale!!! + that's my ultimate goal !!!! Congrats on your trip,
  13. I use the 47's also and I used the power pro as backer and I used the new 18# leadcore by suffix and I put a 8 color on, but this combo I'm pretty sure you could get a 10 color on, but I doubt that you will get a 10 color, because before I knew you needed a backer I could only get 9 colors of 27# on the reel. You need the 57 series to get 10 color with backer. I made up 3-5-7 colors up and I'll use snap weights on the 7 color to get deeper. Best of luck. Tight lines to all!!
  14. Sounds like the boys had a blast. Congrats on your day and taking the boys fishing!!ðŸ‘ðŸ‘
  15. Yea, RD9 congrats on your placement, how many fish could you enter 5? Guessing by your weight if 5 that would give you a little less then a 6# average. That's awesome man!!!!
  16. Yea, I have a 15hp force and its a 1999, I thought Merc. Bought force because mine the carb went bad the shaft that controls the fuel-air mixture wore the hole in the top, they tried to put a bushing in but that failed also, to make a long story short I put a new carb on and it was merc. Carb.. I was told by our local marina who is the Merc. supplier for other dealers in NE. PA., but they were going to slowly fade out the Force units. I bought this motor at Sears for $275.00. It was a show model with scratches all over the hood.
  17. It would be nice if someone could post the winners board or just the top 5 with the weights of the fish. Thank to those that take the time for that info. Tight lines to all!! PAP
  18. John they are talking about inline boards. The kind you reel into the boat, remove the board and continue to fight the fish. From your pic, you use the same type I use that require a mast.
  19. Most of the guys I know use them, with no trouble
  20. I have been watching this show called "invaisive species of the Great Lakes" it is a very in detailed show. One of the concerns was the slimey gobie. They claim and had underwater cameras, it was a grew some sight. 1st was the amount of these little critters, they claim there is 1 gobie for every square yard of the entire floor of LakeO , they also showed a male small mouth trying to protect the nest of eggs. He tried so hard for days that the fish died from exhaustion, and the gobies ate the entire batch of eggs. The good news is that some of the species of fish are gorging themselves with the slippery little critters but the word little may not be the right term as there have been reports of 8/10" gobies being caught!! With the bass walleye and the entire trout species gorging themselves has made it more difficult for the angler. Most people use the excuse that the species they are targeting are gone, " the gobies cleaned them out" there has been some natural reproduction among the salmon due to the Kings gorging themselves with the gobies on the way into the rivers or during the spring months, long story short is the biologist know that their best gun for defense is the fish that swim in the waters of LakeO. Personally I'm 50/50 with who's winning the gobie, or their predators. They are working with a gobacide something like what they are using, the lamprecide. Just because the fish aren't biteing doesn't mean they aren't there.
  21. Congrats to you dad!!! And thanks for taking a child fishing. Jr certainly has a grip on that fish like {your not going to get away this time} love it. ðŸ‘✌ï¸ðŸ‘
