Sure, getting the feel of my new bass boat so I'll be ready. Give me a shout and we can hit most any lake around this are. I was on Croton today, but my battery was dead so I got practice launching and loading.
My phone number is 231-679-7191, give me a yell and we can figure out a trip.

Happy long weekend and opening of Bass season.
Looking forward to hitting the lakes and landing some hogs this weekend. Hopefully the weather man isn't telling us lies and we will have some decent weather.
Getting the kinks worked out of my boat. Put an automatic on board charger in for the motor battery and haven't had many problems. I see what every one means when they say it's a hole in the water you keep throwing money in. The motor for the power trim cooked, $586 part plus installation and back up and running. I still have an electrical gremlin, but getting it figured out. Had it up to 60mph last weekend, now the thing won't plane out. Will change the plugs and run some carb cleaner through it and see if that cures it's ills. 
Hope everyone is getting out. If you get over my way give me a shout and we can go drop a line and catch some nice fish. I'm learning the lakes and getting my touch back from dock fishing all these years. Hopefully the tournaments I hit this year will play out well for me. 
Be safe and have a great weekend. Remember to take time Monday to remember those who gave their lives for our nation.

Hey check out the event on my profile, "Hookin Up Heroes". It's a veteran and active duty military appreciation event held on Hardy Pond featuring a Pro/Am Bass Tournament and a Charity Bike Ride. If you can you should check it out. Lots of food, great fun, and fish stories. |
