Michael I don’t know how else to reach you. My private message section isn’t working properly. I can receive messages but I’m not sure if anyone can receive mine. I sent you one in there as well. Thank you again for all you do for all of us.

Hello everyone after watching the live with Mr. Rick from volunteer an Army buddy and I started to try getting into the used boat game. Since then we have bought 5 Boston Whalers and are in the process of restoring. Kind of wanted a niche of quality so we started there. In the process I am coming across motors trailers etc. I have 2 motors now a 1970Johnson hydro electric drive and a 1978 Mercury M-800. Both have good compression however it is clear to us that using these two for parts would be better than keeping them to sell with or without a boat. Parts for these are hard to find and this way we can help anyone who needs parts from these motors. As we go along I will add pictures and details if anyone is interested. After I have a couple of these under my belt and do my research I am going to get myself a bass boat and do the same.

The other thing I started doing is painting and building baits. I’m not pouring yet but intend to soon. I have been repairing jig heads and designing a bluegill glidebait, a lipless, a square bill, popper, wiggle wart and finished a twitch bait last night. Man I’m excited about spring coming yall let me know if anyone is looking for something or I can help.

Barde what is the password for the Tron tournament? Is there a fee? Thanks

Got a nice 2.3# largemouth with her lipstick on. Crankin Bones 1.5 in bluegill down some rocks lake Hartwell brown road bridge lunch break. It kinda looked like they were letting water in. But not sure appearance’s can be deceiving.
