Yes sorry for a revisions KP kill pond bar off Denis. We knew it would be able to fish but it was he wanted to test the boat in the conditions so we shot out and back.

Wind was brutal all morning today. Just got home and feel like I went 10 rounds in a bar fight.

No boat, back in the suds.

10 rounds is pretty good for an old guy, doubt I could make it out of the 1st  Don't think I will be on the water all week due to winds, doesn't seem to be any safe spots.

thanks Buzz but my knees still feel it. The good thing was I had my partner with me who is 35 and he said he was tired from the beating we took. We DID stay out for 5 hours in the crap.

You guys need real boats.
I kind of like a certain amount of wind (within reason)
Keeps all the pain in the ass little boats at home.
Fishing is usually best when it's rough out also.

I do and mine is only 21 1/2 ft, helps keep the bow down. You might just try by (over) trimming the engine.

Makes a world of difference Paul. That and autopilot for long range journeys were my two best add-on for my 20ft boat.

I agree Paul. Mine is only 19' and made all the difference in the world. Easy do it yourself, if your handy.

Trims tabs are a must Paul. Specially for a guy like you. If your out and about in all kinds of weather they are a must have. They might help save those knees.
