No problem. I know zilch about trout. I've only caught one or maybe two before this and that was years ago and no where near as big as these. I just remember seeing TV shows showing the guys gingerly netting and removing the hook without taking the fish completely out of the water. I caught...

That's the only one I took out of the water. All the rest were unhooked in the water and I didn't have to touch but two of them to get the hook out.

Tried my luck crappie fishing yesterday after work. Only caught two 8" crappie but landed about 20 of these trout. All were around this size. Season opens Saturday but I'll be guiding a youth turkey hunter.

Livewell lights installed.

Livewell and power lines are ran so I can finally get the floor installed.

Got the hole for the switch panel cut.

Finally got some good weather to work on the boat. Got all the plywood cut and fit for the decks and floor. Got the livewell fittings installed in the livewell and the the overflow in the transom. Got the bilge outlet installed. Received the new livewell pump and bilge pump today. Might get...

The snow is almost gone here. Woo Hoo! Pulled my boat out of the garage yesterday and hope to get some work done on it soon.

Hoping to get back in the shop as soon as these sub-zero temps stop. I'll get more pics up as soon as I can. Really need to get a heater for the garage! I was going to do Tuff Coat but am now leaning toward carpet. Need to make up my mind soon!

Just curious. Did this work for you?

The hoses and fittings for the livewell and bilge came in a couple weeks ago. Got a pre-made quick-lok package for a Lowe boat (I think) from great Lakes skipper. Today the aluminum hatches from cabelas came in. Got two medium sized lids. One for the livewell and one for the rear storage. May...

Things have slowed down a bit with hunting season. Now I can get back on the boat modifications/upgrades. Just ordered the fittings and hoses for the livewell feed, overflow and recirq. Also got a switch panel for everything. Next will be pumps/bilge, running lights and hatch for the livewell.
