John, that was the one thing I never asked about, I just assumed you checked it out.
Glad your electrical demons are gone, My son and I saw you and John Skinner out at the windmills last sunday, what a great day it was, hopping to get a couple of more in if my sons aren't to busy.

Bad ground or loose connection?
I had a similar problem with my outboard, I replaced the ignition switch thinking that was the problem, several days later i go to start the engine and got nothing, turned the ignition off and back on and it started, finally figured it out, it was a bad relay...
Your fishing skills can only do so much, luck plays a big part especially with me, I could give plenty of instances where luck prevailed over skill, but the luckiest fish I ever caught was on a tuna trip back in the 90's, I was a regular on the Sunbeam Express out of Niantic, I practically lived...
Very nice Drew, wow! I'm installing a 40 gallon live well tomorrow, giving up on fluke in the sound, we are targeting bass and with the 40 gallon live well it will keep those bunker good and perky, glad the bass recovered.
Stay Safe and Healthy.

We launched the boat at 5:30 am from Milfordt Ct. harbor, our plan was to head over to Penfield Reef and work our way back to the West wall of New Haven Ct.

Nice report Drew, gut hooks are gonna happen, it's just the odds, whenever I got a gut hooked bass I cut the leader as close to the hook as possible and let it go, just hope for the best.

After working on the boat since April on and off with both my sons, the boat was ready last week but never got the chance to use it.
My younger son called me up this past Thursday and asked if we could go out this saturday, I said sure, he then proceeds to tell me...
I can understand how you felt, the pool money is yours to do with what you want, when I was fishing offshore back in the day, If I won the pool I gave it to the mates, they worked hard for me and I didn't mind, plus they always took care of me when ever I went out, but no way should they get...
I have no problem with a 20 in fish, good luck trying to catch one in the sound.
The problem with these so called scientist is that they are book smart hands stupid, no one is out there gathering real time intel, everything they get filters down through so many hands, you want intel you need to...
