i have not been out in the boat in over 6 weeks due to this bad foot and bad tides , i hit the ramp at 6:30 (i know late , the tides) launch the boat ,i was going to hit the bank looking for charlie , i fire up the boat and there is no water comming out of the tell ,

scrub the trip

the only good part is i called the good folks at monahan's and they told me to check the tell with a paperclip the salt builds up and blocks the outflow , low and behold that was the problem . cheap fix just a lost day , better at the ramp than on the bank i guess .
