Good Job Destiny, thanks!

I once caught a fully opened umbrella at first I thought I had Loch Ness monster

The new “Stiff Stick” 7’6” extra extra heavy, super extra fast - for getting those big bass out of the grass.

Great job, Ken! It was a weekend to remember! Jig fish baby...

A volcanic eruption that produced a reef milliseconds before I passed over it, and my lower unit met it with a vengeance. ;-) Or it could have been there for millions of years, and I never drove this new water to me, and I hit the reef. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks, Ken! We made the most of the day, and I had the chance to fish with Tom LaVictoire Jr., a local Champlain Hammer. I had a GREAT day fishing and learning from him; he's a great guy and fisherman! Even better, he was fishing with just one lure—a JIG! I was smiling ear to ear when I heard that. What did I learn? KISS—Keep It Simple Stupid—stop making fishing complicated, grab that jig, and go where the fish are. He got us on some fish within the first hour. I had 5 bass quickly, which is what I needed to earn points for the Regional. I'm currently sitting in 40th place in points. Then he went to work to put together a 19 lb bag. Always remember, focus on the positive and positivity will come back to you.

Tim Dodson it should be able to be repaired. Still working to get adjuster to look at it. I had slowed down because i was unsure of this new water so that likely helped.

I changed the prop on the water and Ken and I idled or 1100 rpm back the 20 miles to the ramp. Bent prop shaft made any higher rpm shake too bad.

Thanks Mack! I need to get the insurance adjuster out to see it.

No because of the fiberglass I won’t put it in the water. My understanding is the fiberglass will soak up the water and make repair even worse. The lower unit could be replace in a few hours.
