Has anybody used gizzard shad for meat rigs? It is readily available for me and was wondering how it would hold up?
Winterizing my OptiMax 225

Guys dont forget to remove your prop.. Clean the shaft and re lube with anti-seize lube so it does not chaf and bind. And when its off make sure there is no line behind the hub. One of the major causes of seal failure. Dont neglect the air filter on top. fuel/water separator/filter are neglected often. mercury quickstore in the tank with marine stabil especially if you run any fuel at all with ethanol, make sure it runs through the motors. Top off the tank so it full and less chance for condensation. I back feed rv antifreeze in livewells, bilge line, wash hose and pour some in the bilge area. crack open hatches to prevent mold. If it sets outside with a cover, do a 5min check after every winter storm.
