Andy let me know the new boat is working great, just going to add a bow mount trolling motor to it for the jigging.. I picked a couple baitcaster combos for jigging with braid just ned a few 1 ounces with flukes and I am in... I'm working today at the Firehouse.. Next week I'm working Tuesday and Saturday......I'm in.... Woody

Tom will do.. I was out fishing yesterday and when I finished up I took the boat for a little run from the launch I am so impressed at how smooth that Force is... I am going to baby that outboard.. I had it up to 25 sog yesterday.... I have to put a tach on the boat to keep tabs on that..... Woody

Steel I know the Springfield area prety good, whats the population there in Gardner....

Dane, I did not think you wanted me to mention your Super Incredible Triple Secret Tips from the Infamous Captain on Lake O.....I was actually heading towards deeper water when i talked with you but I know I have to listen to my ELDERS....... LOL Chris, I am loving that GPS..... Easy to use and large screen compared to that Tiny Little Garmin Etrex I have been using for years... Thanks Chris let me know when you want to get out.. Nick, You are right about that, my eyes and ears were working like crazy trying to listen to the engine watching the bilge, checking all the electronics and listening to the wife complain about the flys biteing, Oh wait a second thats not boat related.... I was just tickled the boat ran smooth....

I work for the Brighton Fire District an eastern suburb of Rochester........ What about you.....

Damn Kevin you did'nt tell me about all that..... You guys deserve a medal for just hanging in there all weekend........ I have to work friday at the Firehouse, let me know if you want to get out on my boat for a few hours...... Dale

My 2 girls would go into the cuddy and color and play barbie dolls until we had a fish on then they would come flying out to fight the fish or watch........ The good ole days... Know they don't even want to see the boat.....Woody

Matt there is a nice Thermocline setup out there for the flys......

Orange bombers and cindy bombers off the boards for those fish would work well.... Dale.

Nick when we were fishing Saturday morning the bugs were not bad till we got out to 100fow then you could not keep them off you... I worked out to 125fow and they disappeared really strange....... Dale

Nice King.....

Pat nice report..... We did 3 off the riggers yesterday deepest was 30 down..... Woody

Tom I can't tell you how great that Force ran... It actually is the smoothest 2 Stroke I have ever run... It purrs like a kitten trolling and purrs at 22 mph.... I am super impressed... Thanks for the help.. Woody

Don't worry Ray these 2 Clowns are probably already out of jail and looking for a nice kicker for you as we speak.... This Judicial System is so out of whack that the Liberal Judge probably felt bad for the two ladds and wanted them to have a nice holiday weekend so lock up them outboards boys.........

Guys I know this is mostly a Fishing Classified but I thought that maybe somebody here might be interested.. I have a 48" John Deere walk behind mower, 17hp kawasaki engine, just put a brand new starter and battery on it.. The mower aint the prettiest thing in the world but she makes the lawn look very nice... I upgraded to a big Z-Turn so I have no need for this anymore.. If anybody is interested in it I am looking to get $750 or Best Offer........ Woody

Bill I think you were fueling up when we were launching..... Nice report.. Woody

Looks like a Bloodbath !!!!!!!.. Nice report.

Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== 5/28/11 3 hours Weather/Temp: Foggy Wind Speed/Direction: Calm Waves: Surface Temp: Location: LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== Total Hits: 6 Total Boated:3 Species Breakdown:brown,laker,steelie Hot Lure: Kevorkian Mag Trolling Speed:2.6 Down Speed: Boat Depth:50-105 Lure Depth: surface to 30 down Got out this am with the wife, hit the water at 930am to try out the boat I revamped from stem to stern.. We started trolling west in 50 fow with 2 riggers and 2 inlines... First hit came on a glowfroggy mag down 30 over 65fow lost that.. Next was an inline with a nice Steelie Stomper back 125 the wife fought that for 5 minutes and that steelie came unbuttoned.... At about 70fow the port rigger fires with the Kevorkian and we are hooked up with a really nice brown.... Got rerigged and trolled north.. as soon as I hit 100fow starboard inline with a Cindy Bomber stickbait starts screaming. I grab the rod and set the hook and we are hooked up, 5 seconds later the port rigger fires with a nice fish down 22 with a Kevorkian mag with silver ladderback...... First Double on the new boat... 10 minutes later the wife boated a nice little 8lb laker and I boated a beautiful 11lb Steelhead... The wife took a couple nice pics of the Steelie but after I released it she said Im not sure if it came out... she took some great pics of my feet..... .... Then she had to use the restroom and I dont have one out there for her so we were back at the dock at 1230... Any way you skin it, it was a good morning on the water.... The boat ran awesome trolls down to 1.8 and runs topend to about 22sog, so I am very happy........... Woody

brad I have 1 rigger left and it does not have the extendable boom.. It has a permanent mount not a swivel base.... I will ship to michigan for the actual shipping cost.... Not sure if you are interested in just one rigger let me know....

Nick nice fish keep it going man.....Woody

Andy nice report now get out a little deeper and get after them sharks......... Dale

About 6 years ago I had the same deal with REELY CHEESY.... We were fishing off IBAY in about 40fow and he got his lines wrapped up in my Planer Board, he pinched me between boats and I could not go anywhere.. It was a "Mud Chicken" sandwich... He unhooks my planer board from the tow line and tosses the planer board out in the waves like it was garbage and it starts floating towards Canada now we are in like 4 to 5 foot waves and I am trying to have the guys watch the damn board so I can turn around and try to net it to get it back..... I remember calling Steve Drave on the phone and hes like "I know where he docks if you want to come say hi"... Visions of jail played in my head so I declined the invitation and said one of these days I will get even with that dude........... Why can't we all just play nice..... Woody.

John thats the Coolest Boat I have seen... Whats the Beam on that beast... Woody

Nice report...... Woody
