  1. New River Rat

    Invasive species

    I had a guy pouring a 5/8 oz hidden head on a .045 wire. From the head to the "R" tie had to be roughly one inch. #5 Indiana blade in silver, about 5 different types/colors used in the skirt. Small surface area for hydro reduction, neutral, natural colors for the river I fish. Here's what they...

    Invasive species

    If they got any paint at all, it was from a rattle can, covered in two part epoxy. Most were left in a "natural lead" color.

    Invasive species

    OTW, I was pretty lucky not to lose too many pricey lures to them. Floating a point A to point B trip one day, I did lose three Lucky Craft Pointers. I told my grown son about this. He said if I can't afford to loose them, I have no business throwing them. I let him know pretty quick losing them...

    Personally, I'm pissed. I figure honestly, since 2000 or so I have managed about 100 of these stinking beasts.

    Yes it does. This cast started with a 10" smallie on the line. BTW, 4# test-47"

    An H2O Willy's Jeep

    Nice work and good luck! But is that a 210 I spied in the background?

    thrust size ?

    Kully, I fish the New River here in VA and the MK 55 has been a staple on my tins since they started making them. Almost enough power to combat the current. I run 29 series batteries in parallel. This battery bank increases the amps but allows the voltage to stay the same. My amp hours are...

    Invasive species

    Ldubs, legal or not, I know for a fact it is a practice that continues to this day. Don't ask how I know..... :- however, it is akin to moving a beach one grain of sand at a time.

    Invasive species

    The biologists in Blacksburg (Joe Williams-muskie and John Copeland-smallmouth) both say the flatheads are the real reason the smallie population is declining. I suppose flatties are a convenient scapegoat.

    '97 25hp Johnson deadman switch

    I can't lay claim to being the sharpest hook in the box, so I miss things. I tested the continuity and it showed it was working as it should. I got the neutral start switch and the starter lockout lever off and examined once more. Apparently, the one bolt holding the neutral start switch had...

    Thanks guys. Not enough digging on my part. Cylinder & Crankcase Parts #91 it is!

    '97 25hp Johnson deadman switch

    That looks like it! None of the schematics looked right, howd you find it? Thanks!

    '97 25hp Johnson deadman switch

    #1. I don't get bored. #2. I don't have a winter break. #3. It won't start: I have bypassed the switch to the ground contacts and now it will crank in F-N-R. None of the schematics have this white switch listed.

    Anybody?

    force outboard

    I'd steer clear as well. I had a 15 hp Sears, made by force, bought new. Nothing but trouble from day 1.

    Andy, to me that is akin to going to a restaurant, ordering a rare porterhouse and being served fried Spam. Ain't what I'm after.

    '97 25hp Johnson deadman switch

    I seem to have a bit of a quandary on my hands. The safety device that prevents my little Johnson (yeah, I said it) from starting in gear is acting rather janky. This lever pointed out should drop down in neutral but doesn't. It is model # J25teeum and I have searched online for the part...
