  1. Good topic ! #1 Poison . #2 traps . #3 As previous clean out boat esp. anything that may attract rodents eg. food crumbs etc. vacuum
  2. Good topic ; with good compression you still have a good engine ! Keep it simple ! We thought it was the carbs [ similar problem on a 70 hp OMC { outboardmarine CRAP } ] ; took all afternoon to do carbs , got late dark , started the engine same problem . THERE IT WAS ! SPARKS ! The ground wire nut behind the powerpack had backed of enough for intermittent contact ! Before you give up clean all contacts then apply dielectric grease . I also ran a separate ground wire [ like on my 77 Vette ] . If that works my birthday is March 03 LOL !
  3. # 1 Get the marine forecast ! #2 You want full sun and little wind [ prefer light south / west ] . As previously posted you may be out alone ; no fish is worth taking risks . .
  4. You are lucky that it was all ! have had worse ; leave it !
  5. Thank you for closure ! Hopefully lessons are learned ! I have been out in Lake Ontario solo many times since 1984 and feel safer than on the Queen E. highway but I take NO risks !
  6. Famous quote " don't go away mad ; just go away ! "

  16. " FICKLE PICKLE " with rattle # 4 J-Plug put newbie #5 in the StCG&F summer derby on Aug 29 in the Laker category [ silver with a lot of chartreuse paint ! ]. The #5 flo white with black ladder back also works this year . Zilch with Lymans !
  17. Good post Frogger ! Could not agree more !
  18. Ditto : We were out that AM I would not go further than 120 FOW : With a strong offshore blow the further out the meaner the lake ! and the harder coming back ! Hopefully outhers can learn from this event !
