Thank you guys for taking time to watch the video. Please pass it on to family and friends so that they too can share in this wonderful moment of a soldier returning home and being reunited with his family!

Hey guys, I just wanted to share with you this video I made of my cousin - Air Force Capt. Chad Gontkovic returning home from Afghanistan and being reunited with his family. Let me know what you think! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKtKdZkjSrc

I'm currently looking to replace my 2 trolling motor batteries and have been reading a lot of good things about the Cabela's AGM battery. Are they as good as they sound? Right now, the Group 27 battery is on sale for $159.00 (which doesn't sound too bad). My other question is this battery is...

We only got about 8" where I live, but just to the south of us a little bit, they are dealing with over 2' of snow. Crazy storm!

That's awesome....but would be so scary! Good old duct tape does it again!

I used to own a 12' jon boat with a 4 hp motor. It got me from spot to spot (eventually), but I wouldn't want to be caught out with that set up in a storm. It was pretty slow!

Man, that sucks! Looks like a lesson was learned.....the hard way unfortunately. Hopefully that never happens to me, I'll be sure to double....I mean triple check everything in my boat for now on before I go on a fishing trip.

Yeah, I'm not sure of how you protect rod corks, but like Mattman said, some soap, simple green, water and sandpaper have all worked for me in the past when it comes to cleaning them.

Thanks guys, lots of good help and information. I'll most likely just take the carb apart and give it a good cleaning. I don't think it's ever been done before and I need something to do to pass the time during these long winter months. Other than the carb, is there anything else that I need...

Thanks so much - that is perfect!

Wow, those look sweet! Nice job!

Yeah, everything seems to be air tight, and the primer bulb stays rock hard while it's running. The vent is also open on my gas tank. The motor is a 2003 (I've only owned it for 2 years) and has run good until now. That's why I'm thinking that maybe it's something internal and it just needs a...

Now that's really good to know!

Thanks, that's good to know!

Does anyone know if all carb cleaners are considered equal, or are some better than others? I bought a can of Gunk Carb Cleaner - should this do the job?

I've got the Curado as well, and I love it. You can't really go wrong with a good Shimano reel.

Thanks! Lots of good information! I already took care of the fuel problem and got rid of all it. I'm starting fresh next season with proper fuel stabilizer. I've taken my plugs out earlier on in the season and they seemd a little on the darker side, so I must be running it too rich. A new...

If you don't mind me asking...what plug are you referring too? Bad/old fuel was another of the problems that we suggested could be a contributing factor. Unfotunately, I had the same fuel in the gas tank for a while, without it being treated.

I was just wondering if anyone has any info on my little problem. My 25 hp Mercury starts fine and idles fine, but as soon as I give it some gas, it wants to stall and takes a while to finally kick in. Once I get it going, it doesn't seem to have the power that it used to. My one buddy who's...

Wow, that looks awesome! Can't wait to see more of the progress.
