Gave it another shot on saturday morning. Had my neighbor and John "Fish4Me" with me to see what was still around. Always a pleasure to have any of the amigo's aboard to rehash and laugh over old shananigans, as well as making new memories.
Expected a West wind 5-10 for the am. Broke the inlet...
Gave the tog another chance on Sunday. Waited out the rain and broke the inlet @10:30 and was rudely greeted with 2-4 tight chop.
Scrapped my plans to head across to the CT side when I couldn’t make more than 10 kts without slamming hard. Plan B was a close area around Eatons.
Found a nice spot...
Another question to ponder.....
When using spot lock for night time chunking bass for example...am I using my red/green nav lights because technically im under power, or should I not confuse those around us and use the anchored white light?
I use the white 360 light to avoid night time...
Got lucky to find a replacement motor for my ride. Quick trip to VB to pick it up, spent a few days last week removing and installing and Sat was sea trial day. Broke inlet @7:30 with my son and daughter onboard. Stopped inclose and drowned some crabs for shorts well as a keeper tog and cbass...
Nice....surprised it took that long for the big boy to kick.
We've all seen tog flopping on the table hours after being put in the bucket.
Congrats on a great day of catching!
I am heading south friday afternoon....Norfolk
Picking up a pair of 200 HPDI's....one ready to go, one needs work. Great price so I took both, but I also have to remove them from the boat they are on.
Hopefully have the good one installed before next weekend.
Going to have plenty of spare parts!
With my boat out of commission, (hopefully for not too much longer), I leaned on fellow amigo Koz and twisted his arm to take the day and try and repeat past years success. The phenomenal weather was the kicker and off we went armed with greens and Asian crabs that I flipped rocks for the day...
Whoa...slow your roll big boy
I didn't know AG3 went by the name "Nobody"
We are all witness to the accuracy of AG3 when the sh!t is gonna hit the fan...and when it's not.
Got out Saturday with a couple of pals. Wanted to try for fluke and cbass along the slopes by 11b. Motored out of the inlet, got her on plane and cruised for a few minutes when suddenly the SB side motor changed pitch, started to vibrate and shudder and lost rpm, so I back off quickly and she...
Yes Jay, it is always a work in progress.
She started fine at the house and the ramp. Ran her for a few minutes, and shut it off as we drifted.
Started again, and ran another 10 minutes, off and drifted.
Ran her again for 10 minutes to the bass spot and shut her off...no issues.
She wouldn't...
