If you have a rocker switch for accessories make sure you check that.I burnt one out once when I did some arc welding with my battery.

#2 in the parts list is a 5amp glass fuse if it blows you will have no power to the motor or trim.Look up your year and model # to find where it is located on your motor.You can get the same fuse at any auto parts store.Every outboard I have ever owned has a inline fuse like this.It's best to no where it is and keep a spare in the glove box.

     I haven't  Fished the upper River in years.Hears a good map with depths.   http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/14832.shtml

Anyone been on the ice today?

I fished the East end 2/26.Edges were bad from the water levels rising.Main ice was in good shape.

The button in the middle of the cushion should be a snap. Gently pry it off with a flat screwdriver.There will be a snap receiver behind it that will be screwed into the bow.Remove that screw.I would imagine there are some fasteners were the two cushions meet in the corners also.

It doesn't give the Bay depths it is very shallow.

Found this skull about 50 yards from my stand today.The one side that wasn't eaten up much had 6 points.

Thought I would give the bow a try for the opener.Not a big buck but my 1st opening day bow buck.10 minutes later a nice buck came by at 50 yards ( I was glad he was out of my range)

Great Job.

Thanks guys your both winners.

I am new to Yamaha's and 4 strokes.My new to me 2004 T9.9ELRC kicker motor has a slight oil leak.It is leaking by the mounting screw at the bottom of this part in the picture.I looked at all of the parts diagrams and couldn't find it.Better yet if you could name the part and part # that makes you the winner in my book.The screw is tight. The housing could have a small crack but I would guess a bad seal behind the housing.I Would like to get a new one ordered. THANKS

Never launched at Dunkirk but I want to try it. I heard parking is a problem there. Is there a good place to park a rig near by the ramp?

There is a good sized parking lot to your left  as you are pulling into the launch.

I have one that should work. Sent a pm with my #

I have a pair of cables 12' long that are 1 year old.They came with a motor I purchased and were to short for my application.They came out of a 703 control box.Just cables no ends.$40.00 picked up  or best offer.

Watch out for fireworks Friday Night.

Do you just buy them or do you make your own ? My break away cable broke a couple of years ago and haven't used my fishawk since.Would like to start using it again. last time I priced them they seemed a little pricey but then again so are rigger balls so I am a little nervous to make my own.Any thoughts would be welcome .If you make your own and have had good luck with them I would be happy to buy a couple at a fair price thanks.

"Yeah that's perfect. Roughly how high are they do you think? Do you want to sell one"? 3.75" high top base is the same as a Humminbird base 3"x4"x3.5" I would sell you 1 for $25 plus shipping.
