LSL and Skeeter hit Truman

James and I met up at Bucksaw Saturday morning. Fish up past power lines to Otter and back down. Boat engine acted up at Otter and we had to idle it back down to Bucksaw hitting different locations to fish. Tried minnows and jigs, no set pattern. Fish were biting early in the morning. Storm blew up and it was a race back to the marina at 6 mph trying to beat the rain. We had a good time even though the fishing was slow for us and we had to cut it short because of the rain. Hey Paul, we caught one drum and a perch. No catfish this time.Attachment 248562

Thanks for the report. Great pic.

Good to see you two out and about. How come that pretty boat keeps acting up?

Darn i was woundering while i was fishing if i shouldve came up there and chased you guys around. But sounds like you had same kind of day as me. What do you think is wrong with your motor?

Fuel line coming apart from the inside clogging it up. Replaced fuel line but there must have been some pieces I missed. I keep thinking back to my aluminum boat that I sold that I had zero problems with. Some how Truman lake doesn't like my boat.

congrats on the good part of the trip, black flag on the bad part,,,, hope you get the fuel line fixed.

Nice !!!!

Nice job those boats always pick the best time to act up

It was a great time fishing. Beats the desert sands and work any day, even if the boat motor was acting up. I appreciate the offer to go fishing with you Mark. Thanks again.

Glass half full that's awesome

I had that happen at Pomme de Terre last spring. Almost ran out of gas, got lost in a storm on the water. Took 45 minutes to load boat on trailer. I was all over it. Sideways pointing right sideways pointing left. Very windy. Finally loaded, I backed into a ditch, busted my lights and fender, had to get pulled out. Got lost on the road to our cabin. Finally pulled in the drive way 3 hours later. Oh yea, this all happened at night. Scary but a hell of a good time.

Sounds like an adventure
