Well, you talked me out of it. I finally was able to get most of the fuel out of the tank by unhooking the hose to the motor and squeezing the pressure bulb numerous times! It just wouldn't flow out good for me but I kept at it and got most of it out. I will put in new fuel and hope for the...

Well, I am leaning toward putting some new high octane in it and let it mix with the old.

Got to get it out of the boat tank first!

Not sure I understand what you are saying here.

Ya, thought about that too. Thanks.

Ya, have a nice John Deere with a Kawasaki in it. Thought about that too. I got to get the old gas out first though.

Thanks! I really didn't know if the hose would work that way or not. I thought the valves inside the bulb might seal it up after squeezing and prevent it from working the way I need it to. Thanks again!

I didn't get my boat out much last year and even think I still have some gas in it from the year before. I am guessing there is about 8 or so gallons in it and the tank is about 20. I thought I should go ahead and syphon out the old gas and start fresh this year. For some reason, I can't get my...

May even be a better idea than the Lithium jumper pack I carry with me.

OK, thanks! Since they are 7 years old and I really don't want to take much more chance with them dying on me when I don't want them dead, I went ahead and bought a 1000 cranking amp battery from Walmart along with 2 deep cycle 29's with 122 Amps. These are the same batteries I had in previously...

Well, just checked voltage on each of the 3. The start battery is showing 13.4 and the trolling batteries are each at 13.2. I was surprised but had just taken them off the charger. Perhaps it will change in a few hours? What if I would start my trolling motor and run it---would that equal under...

Thanks---I will probably make a trip to Walmart tomorrow but might try to see what voltage they are testing at before I do.

Thanks for the tips and great help! These I have are from Walmart too. Must be the place to get them? I have a good mechanical friend that tells me he is lucky to get 2 years out of his Interstate Batteries and was amazed when I told him how old mine were.

Was going to post up a similar question so instead will ask here. Last year, I was thinking my trolling motor didn't have the power it once had and was thinking the batteries might be getting in need of replacement. I have 2 batteries hooked up as a 24v system. I also have a separate starting...

Ohh, NO!! I have not! Better look around a little more. Sorry! Hey, I may have one in my stash! I tend to buy things when I think the price is right or I think they may stop making them. I will look. Maybe we could make a trade deal for your Stradic you don't like?

Ya, you can find Symetres if you look around yet. Here is a heck of deal for you if they still have any! https://www.fishingcastle.com/products/Shimano-Symetre-RJ-Rear-Drag-Spinning-Reels-.html

Wow, everything in California is to high! I have a brother that lives in SanDiego. Ya, Decorah is far enough from me that I rarely have been there. Went up last year to see the Eagle nest. Pretty area.

If anyone happens to have one and would like to sell it, send me a message. I would guess they were last made about 10 or so years ago, maybe more.

For me and my lake type fishin (not catfishin in the river), I am admittedly addicted to a smooth reel with smooth drag. That being said, I have a very good fishing bud that can afford whatever reel he wants and could care less about smooth. Similarly, he doesn't care that much about sensitivity...
