Mines still surrounded in snow..cover is coming off tomorrow... sure sign of spring right there!

mine is going for a ride tomorrow,hope to find some holdovers.

What do you get a bone-us for being the first dummy at the dock??

:happy::happy:

yep / BTW .ya don,t have to take the cover off if ya never put it on ..................................not once in 40 years have I covered my boats & all that has happened was I had one battery stolen ...........which is still a lot cheaper than all the b/S of covering & uncovering .......matter of fact its only been the last 8 years or so that it hasn,t stayed in all 12 months .
I remember one New Years day ,,,,,,,, a few guys from this site took a 15 mile ride to fish for holdovers :faga:

I guess you don't need paint! Painting mine today. In worder shape than I thought

{ P[ no problem ] but its not much of a adventure anymore .....age sucks :eyes:

I love that pic of all the empty slips, mine is stuck in outdoor storage, field is still too muddy to pull her out. Given the weather pattern we’re staring at, I’m not sure that problem is going away any time soon

Always an adventure don"t BS.

No love today,lots of pipes.

Denis , well the weather looks like its gonna suck this week anyway .....................[BUT} this old timer may have found us a new place ,if you can stay out after the street lights go on & get a walking stick ..:kewl:
Gotta find out if Guppy wants to eat the white Perch [also] thats easy fishing but Ray will have to get a RI F/W license :lasso:

Road trip! :-) in
I'm up for whatever .......
Call ya tonight

Nothing is easy for us.

Ok Ray ><>

The BS of cleaning out pine and spruce needles far exceeds the BS of covering it.. oak leaves leave permanent stains...nothing worse than a sunken boat due to a clogged bilge pump..

Mine is un covered waiting on nicer weather for engine oil and filter changes and trailer brakes ps dennis I still have your cup

Clean it

Well im impressed. This snow doesn't have me eager to get going on mine

OK Wayne,will meet some time soon.

Haven't even started on mine yet, maybe next week if we get some decent weather.

Covers off...new electronics and gauges installed..hydraulic.engine jack plate installed. Only to find out the power trim motor finally rotted through ( it's looked pretty shabby for a few years now)...nothing another 1000 bucks wont cure..glad I didn't put the engine crane away...

Good lord! Jack plate???? you fish in puddle water as it is!!!! :tooth:

yup..should have done it years ago.. running some of the flats I fish the fish are there as soon as they can swim in it( I've seen them swimming there with their back out of the water)... now I can scoot the bars early without kicking up a ton of silt and clams.. also.. the plum Island river has filled in tremendously from what it was when I started fishing almost 50 years ago... I used to be able to navigate it an hour either side of mean low tide... now I'm pushing it and hour and a half either side of high... so instead of running around the outside ( ocean front which is not feasible when the mouth is cranking) I can raise the engine and scoot across the shallow spots like I did in the tin boat days...I added a power tech 4 blade prop to aid in the higher engine height..I added a water pressure gauge and height indicator to keep from cooking the motor...
