I put my boat together over the winter and then had trouble
with the outboard I had bought. Come to find out someone had
removed the vro pump and didn't plug the upper cylinder port
behind the fuel pump. I rebuilt the pump and it blew up from all
the compression of both cylinders and tight gaskets from the new
kit. Live and learn right. I got everything working now and it will
finally idle. I took it out and did a little scanning with the side imaging
and found a ton of fish along the south edge of the channel in Bledsoe
near the point. Caught several 10-11" and a lot of shorts. The bite was a little
slow and they were close to the bottom at 12-16' deep. I slow trolled .5 mph
and less with single rigs. Black and purple worked the best but didn't try
everything. It was nice to be out again.
