Changed the VST myself 2 seasons ago, still plenty of RPM.... I dun no

I’m a boat US fan, don’t leave home without it !

another thing that happen fairly frequently is the check valve in the fuel tank sticks.... usually the symptom is a collapsed or flattened primer ball... I've had to do a few emergency "surgeries" on these at sea through the years...

Flattened primer means a restriction or bad check valve ( could be one in the primer as well)... that fish was on a 9" weighted sluggo.. no eels yet ( I just started trapping last night)... got a bunch more last night .. mostly 3-4lb class...bigger fish might have moved up river already on the heels of the herring..
