    Acid Wash

    in This Old Boat

    Posted

    My first year keeping my boat on the river in Rochester and the bottom looks to be a mess.

    Wanted to try power washing and acid washing myself.

    I'll put tarps down when using acid to cover trailer.

    I heard muratic acid works just as well as store bought stuff at west marine. Not sure though?

    I'll buy something safer at west marine for the motor, drive and trim tabs.

    Am I on the right track? Any advise or guidance?

    I figured you have to clean each year once so why paint the bottom and keep a nice clean look?

    I was with you. We had two hits early and then nothing despite a report of a good bite in top 10 feet. Guys at the launch had 7 in the boat. We tried speeds from 2.1-3.0 with nothing but a skipper steelie after the first 2.

    Hopefully we have a few more weeks.

    What boat r u in?

    Did u catch mainly on plugs or what?

    I'm definitely too deep but I threw everything at em!

    At least it was slow for others. Felt so bad I didn't land any I took off to laker country to put something in the boat for my daughter.

    My daughter and I went out and we started at the mouth w the pack and she had a nice one on FF off the 30 dip set over 20fow but she got the fish to the back of the boat and gone!

    Tried everything to get a bite through 930 but nothing. Tried jplugs, spoons, FF. 50 foot leads. Tight leads. 8 to bottom over 20?fow but nothing.

    What's working?

    I did see most were using planer boards so maybe u have to get the lures farther from the boat?

    Snuck out of work early for a couple hours of fishing. Brought my neighbor who hasn't been out fishing on a boat since the 60's so the pressure was on! 😃

    Found cold water around 150 and worked our way out. Kept a side of the riggers on the bottom and picked a couple of lakers up on yellow tuxedo

    Kept the other riggers at 80 and picked up a nice kingpost-148612-14395187146941_thumb.jpg on ff. white glow flasher w green dots and green fly.

    Stayed in 150 to 220 but picked the king up over 150.

    Good time. Headed out again in the am!
