ilucas, Give Rick@BBW a call his email can be found on here most likely under an Sunapee Report, He is really good with motors and the such, and i believe he is a mercury dealer also, if anyone could figure out something for you he most probably could. Take CAre God Bless and Tight Lines LOL Dave From up North
thanks Dave, i will look into that, I don't know how he feels about suzuki's but i would like to try and keep the kicker the same as the big motor. thanks for your help.
are you fishing soon we have not seen any reports?
not sure how much gas i am burning, but you are right salmo it would be minimal w/ the kicker. boy isn't gas getting crazy. it costs us 50 bucks round trip every time we tow up to ames farm and then 20 to launch. wow,times have changed
back down to earth today 5 lakers 1 baby salmon the first 4 lakers were all nice fish 22-24in all on the smelt gun.when the rain stopped so did the action for me.was thinking about the difference between today and yesterday.was pretty much calm today yesterday was windy with big waves right from the start.A small boat like mine really rocks and rolls. And like slipkont mentioned i think the big waves in the broads added the little EXTRA ACTION to get the fish biting.up until now high wind is the one thing that would keep me off the water im gonna test this theory the next windy day.
rich,
nice meeting you yesterday, we kept looking for you as we trolled diamond and rattlesnake, we lost site of you about 6:00-6:30. did you troll on the ames farm side of rattle snake and head towards alton bay?
it was nice to meet you too sorry about the dead fish handshake my right hand and arm are just about useless [health issues] i fished the broads all morning east of diamond and rattlesnke then trolled up to welch was that you fishing back and forth by diamond and if so did you catch many there. and again nice boat i saw you launching late in the season last year at newfound it stuck in my memory cause all those spot lights very cool im out there in the dark alot with just a flashlight lol
hey rich,
yup that was us, we were marking fish and bait there continously, and having steady action on the lead core lines, we stayed in the area until about 9, then trolled on the broads side of rattlesnake till about 11:30 picked up 3 more and then headed out. we did fish newfound at the end of last year, i needed to get comfortable with the boat so we started out fishing there (traffic on winni can get crazy) and we ended up really liking newfound. you are welcome to join us, i will e-mail you
