Sound advice Wire, I'm searching the web for that product(lol).

I know automobiles require a routine change but, leave it to me to buy a house that requires a oil change.

I trust all has been well and your trying out that new trolling motor.

Just talked to the girls at Poffs Place they said the lake is open ice is off. Let the games began. Docks will be going in soon

Sounds good ... Checked my motor yesterday, lights on trailer today put new safety chains on traller. Let's get the docks in !!

Who  needs docks?  .... They're launching out of Wilson's.  5 trailers up there  Monday afternoon.

BTDT, t.m. mounted, boat ALMOST ready for pymy, thank you. new tow vehicle(14 f 150 ext. cab, 4 w.d., getting set up over next week or so ( tonneau, mud flaps, seat covers, bug deflector, rain thingys above windows, ,n, stuff. rods ,n, reels, tackle all ready to go. how bout you, ready? wire

Wirenut, as of this writing, power washing of the house is complete (with any luck, it'll take a week or two to dry) so, it's off to washing and prepping the boat tomorrow.  Need to change the oil (dang there's a haunting word) in the motors, replace two rub rail end caps, and install a couple of 12 volt power outlets.  I'm thinkin', maybe four hours tops and, the boat will be ready.  Good thing too cause, I'm running out of stories about live bait!
 
I'm thinking Shenango this coming Sunday and Pymy Mon., Tue., Wed., Thur., Fri., then back to Shenango for Sat. and Sun.  Of course, weather permitting I may have to, spend a hour or two, applying oil to the house.  BUT, only if the fish aren't biting.
 
Congratulations on the new rig, sounds really nice.
 
PS. Those rain thingys above the windows are neat!

I've already caught crappies at Pymie this past Monday 

speaking of Shenango, anyone know if its back up any from drawdown? nice crappies in there last couple years. thanks, wire

It's up and being fished...........it's on.

Yep....Yep, level looking good but, unfortunately, the lake is being wind whipped today (Friday) and the water looks to be somewhat muddy especially along the shorelines at the Rt. 18 causeway.  Boat docks are still sitting in the parking lot at the Clark launch sight off of Rt. 18.
 
Shouldn't pose a problem launching if ya have a buddy along.  (hint..... Hint)
 
Go get em Wirenut............ tight lines to ya!
