Dean's cove

Fished 8 to 1130 . First time this season with my boat things didn't go as planned. When got into the boat from parking the truck I noticed the live well leaking. I worked on this issue last fall when I put the boat up for the winter. So I said the hell with it i am going fishing thinking it's not that bad . I took a ride to the east side to run the boat aways to make sure everything was good . Open the dog house up to check for any kind of leaks oil antifreeze ,water. Seen no problems . Got the kicker running and started to put a seth green with hijacks spoons out and then a dipsy with cow bells and gambler spin and glow. After Sitting at the helm for a while the bilge pump kicks on. Oh shyt, pulled the dog house had water up to the bottom of the oil pan . I was lucky the bilge pump was able to drain out the boat . the next hour I spent taking apart the live well and stopping to fight a fish . I found the drain line was off the fitting and water was pouring in through a half inch hose ,was able to put a small Phillips in the drain line and then tightening up with the hose clamp and that stop the water from coming in thank god . Pump out the boat and went back to fishing had 46 degrees water marking fish but not much in schools some but not what I expected. I trolled west to east till I box out with 5 Lakers witch was 5 for 8 . All the lakers were Hefty chunkers plan on turning into food for my dog . On the way home I came across a cow that had a harder time then me . Poor thing .... till next time

Good going Brian Glad things worked out always something eh? I checked out that new dock there yesterday and it looks pretty good but I wish they put some vilyl protection on the edges and not just the upright posts. Smaller glass boat may get some dings

Last time I seen that dock the water was3 ft from the top today just 8 inches was from the top of it . When you own a old tub to fish from you dont get to concern when you bump the dock . But all caution must be taken when you got a beautiful Whaler

Would you care to share how you make it into dog food?  Been thinking the same thing.  It's probably much healthier option.
