shake down run

[xjbob99]

finally after a two week battle of rebuilding carbs, finding electrical gremlins and putting everything from the old boat on to the new on i got out yesterday.

got on the water a little late 8:30 and fished to 2. set up 2 leadcore lines and two flat lines. we caught fish on both pretty steady with a couple doubles, all browns. nothing big. all came from 10-20 FOW. the bilge pump runs a little more than i like and the planer mast needs to be lowered. going to take it out a few more times local before i hit champlain or Ontario. other than that it ran perfect.

Lookig good!  My first experience with leadcore was this weelend on quabbin.  Man does using it help with the lakers!

Good luck on ontario.  I need a few more things before my boat is rwady for that place!

Im going to buy one for a newer alumacraft and make it work on mine.  Finding the sides that go with the one that is on there has proved impossible.  My buddy has a snap press so I can move/replace them.
