Could be Ignition Coil heating up or cracked. I have seen this once while in Canada. Ended our trip - we had a spare Fuel Filter changed Spark Plugs and finally had to leave because when you go 15 to 20 miles one way each day it's way to risky having an Outboard fail on the water. Took it in and turned out to be the Ignition Coil on one cylinder.
Sounds like a clogged filter, fuel line air leak or bad fuel pump to me.
glad to hear there are still some good sized 'birds still roaming around on Tville.
Did you happen to find them up around the horseshoe bend area ?? Were you spider'n with jigs, longlining, or were ya using the HotnTot/jig rig ??
Did you get a chance to look at that "secret" Bass bank I told you about:p
Just some FYI ... that same bank is also pretty good in the early Fall ... bumping spinnerbaits against the stickups

Caught them on the edge of the river channel next to the hump. We were trolling 1/4 ounce jigs of different colors but it seemed to be best on the ones that were watermelon color. The creel limit man talked to us and said he had seen a lot of good hybrids. Talked to my boat maintanence man and he is backed up two to three weeks. It never ends. I am going to start by changing the fuel filter and plugs. He also suggested putting a conditioner into the fuel and mentioned a carborator cleaner but not sure how to install that.
