No fuses to check. I will get VM and check ck that. Its a professional mariner pro tournament 15-3. Was on the boat when I bought it 10 years ago.

Kentuck

I seriously doubt the bass in the lake will starve if 200k of kokanee/salmon/trout aren't planted. There are enough shad/bluegill/crappie/crawfish to maintain them.

When I started doing more fishing this spring, I noticed my batteries weren't holding up long. Would wind up on high at the end of the day and that seemed slow. I put new batteries in and all seemed well. But the last two trips the batteries have given out after several hours of not a ton of running...

I may not be current but last I talked to Boatmaster's, they didn't work on Yamahas.

You can get startron at WalMart or any auto parts store.

Kentuck

I would certainly run some sort of fuel stabilizor.

Kentuck

Thanks, I obviously missed that post. Good to know.

Kentuck

So what are the plans for where the BASS folks plan on releasing all the fish caught in the upcoming tournament? These fish are going to all be taken a long way away from home and to an an area that is not ideal habitat for them. Thoughts?

Kentuck

The Elites are not going to be happy with this one. Still can't beleive they agreed to run a "Delta" event out of Sacarmento. The city must really be paying them some dough.

Kentuck

Hit some rock today. Where would you all recommend some prop repair work and how long does it usually take?

Kentuck

haven't had time to fool with it. I will let everyone know when I can get to it how it goes.

Kentuck

Thanks all. Great suggestions and I'll give them a try.

Kentuck

I am trying to remove the rear seat post on my Ranger. It won't budge. Any suggestions?

Kentuck

Great catch.

Kentuck

Just signed up. Looking forward to lots of smiles that day.

After realizing the void left when The Hook closed, I am hearing there is a "new" shop opening up soon in it's place, maybe not location but opening none the less.

"sane and rational state government" These words don't go together for our Government. They are neither sane or rational.

Kentuck

I've got one sitting in my garage. New motor two years ago came with one.

Kentuck

Just remembered to update this. Turns out two lift pumps were bad.

Kentuck

Hate thieves. I have my boat with C&C right now being worked on. I'm sure karma will smack these folks but sad to say they probably will just right it off to bad luck.

Kentuck

That is cool and I would certainly follow up with the head of the Sac Marine division about it. Seems a lesson on the laws of the water is needed.

Kentuck

Bet they lost a lot of spawn as a result.

Kentuck

Thanks All!

My son is out of school this coming Thursday and I was thinking of taking him to Lake Oroville. He's never really caught a lot of fish and I hear this lake can crank 'em out. Not worried about size. What lures do you all recommend? I'm hearing drop shotting robo worms. Anything else we might try? Th...

Kentuck

I am trying to reply to a message sent to me in my Inbox. Everytime I go back to my Mailbox I see the message still in the Outbox. I am I doing something wrong?

Kentuck

Thanks All. Great info. I haven't looked at depthfinders for a long time and technology certainly has changed.

Kentuck

Looks like the X75 I have on the bow has bitten the dust. What suggestions would you all have for me to replace it with. I fish a few tournies. Primarily fish the Delta, Clear Lake, Berryessa and a couple of the motherlode lakes. Right now I am thinking of up to $200, but not set in concrete.

Kentuck

That's what they get for having the Classic this time of year. I really hoped the new owners would have moved it back to where it should be, at the end of the season. Isn't that the reason to fish a series, make the championship. That year.

Kentuck

Thanks all. Haven't used my boat in about three months. Went to crank it up prior to going out and main battery was out. Wouldn't charge so I replaced it. After cranking for some time the motor never fired. Noticed oil coming out from prop area. Appears to be non-burned oil.gas. Motor never fired. L...

Kentuck

Looks like I will need to have my yammie worked on. Have used C&C Marine in Citrus Heights with much satisfaction, but that's a long way from Concord. Anyone suggest someone closer to my area? Thanks!

Kentuck

Was thinking of hitting New Hogan tomorrow mainly for stripers. Anyone been there lately?

Kentuck

That's a bummer. I took him out on one of his visits one summer and he caught his personal best bass that day. Really nice guy. My condolences to his family.

Kentuck

When Gene ran it, he had day one results posted Saturday night and final results on Sunday night. It's doable, just has to be done.

Kentuck

Thanks all. Never replaced fuel lines. 100 hour service last year. Brand new tank of gas (one tank was empty). Thinking about it I think I did hear the engine running slightly different, but RPM gauge never changed. Water pressure was good.

Kentuck

My first thought was it was areas that had a lot of current changes, like eddies. I don't know, may have just been me, but I've never expereinced that in this boat.

Kentuck

Went out fishing last Saturday for the first time since March. I know, that 's bad! Anyway, while running around through out the day I noticed my big motor was "pulsing" in terms of power as I was going from spot to spot. By pulsing, I mean you could feel the boat speed up then slow down s...

Kentuck

I am taking a friend and his two boys out Saturday for some bass fishing. The kids have never bass fished. I am wondering if I should take them to Berryessa or the Delta. Any suggestions? I haven't had time lately to get out myself due to baseball committments so any help would be appreciated.

Kentuck

Still iritating to me. Or maybe I'm just a slow reader and have to pay attention to where my mouse sits.

Kentuck

It was won with 17 and change. It took 12 something to get a check. Big fish was 11 pounds.

Kentuck

I just bought a Dobyns Champion Series spinning rod, model 702SF. Med./Light action for darterheads, tubes, etc. I was wondering what reel I should think about putting on this rod?

Thanks,
Kentuck

Interesting. I may go the new battery route. I know it is at least 5 years old as that is how long I've had the boat. A guy at the parts store told me that sometimes a cell inside can come loose and lay over onto another cell and that could cause heat to transmit to the terminals.

Kentuck

Just the connector ends were melted. Rest of the wires are ok. Leon, I will try and call tomorrow afternoon if that is ok.

Kentuck

I've had a development on my cranking battery. It happened once earlier this summer that after trying to crank the big motor, I loose all power, even to my electronics. Checking the connections, I found the nut on the postive post connections loose and when I went to tighten it, the nut was really h...

Kentuck

I'm sorry for your family's loss Marc. I never met you all but saw you two at the few tournys I have fished. I actually got a great confidence boost one tourny when I saw you all pull up and start fishing near where I was. I told myself I had found a good area if you all were fishing it! Prayers of ...

Kentuck

Awesome job. Thanks for that.

Kentuck

Have you checked out West Marine? May not be the exact latches but they may have what you need.

Kentuck

I'm passing on it this year. Money has been really tight plus with the cooler weather this week I'm not too excited about the topwater bite.

Kentuck

The really sad truth to this all is if he didn't weigh in any dead fish would he have even been caught???????? Think about it. It even sounded like it was a fluke that the guys cleaning the fish on Tuesday even found it out. Someone just decided to see what a fish was eating. I think it's beyond tim...

Kentuck

When were redeye planted in CA? I thought they were only native to some southern waters.

Kentuck

Sorry for your loss. Prayers for comfort during this time.
