Thank you for the information. I haven't been online much lately because of a family tragedy.

I have a vintage 3 hp sears game fisher outboard motor model 298-586190 and need the twist throttle that fits on the tiller handle and the cable. If anyone has one to sell you could send me a PM. Thanks

Some engines like merc gain 5 hp by using a different carb, ie 10hp vs 15hp same specs different carb.

I believe that is a 1980's thingamajig.

I've been using Coleman and Igloo for years and find either of them a great cooler. I place all my goods inside with ice, blocks, then cover everything with a layer of alum foil then several layers of newspaper then cover the cooler with a harbor freight moving blanket. Lasts many, many summer...

I have a book on fishing published in the late 60's or early 70's titled "Lunkers Love Nightcrawlers". I have taken lots of advice from those pages and scored on many a large fish. Yep, they like big worms!

I needed a replacement for my favorite steelhead reel, bought an Okuma and really like it. Smooth as can be, landed a beauty on the second cast.

I've had my best luck by making sure to gut and remove gills to bleed my catch. Ice down well as suggested, cover cooler with moving blanket.

Using a soda blaster will work with minimum scaring of the metal. Might be someone in your area doing it commercially.

Great idea, sure beats my plastic milk crate!

My wife and are down with the "bug" as well. Neither of us has had a cold in several years and this one is making up for lost time!!
