    GRIDLOCKED:: Those salmon look pretty nice too! Did you guys catch a charter fishing boat or do you have a boat up there?

    SubieDave:
    We went out with a couple local pros on a charter boat. We would have come back with 6, but my dad got mega sea sick and we headed in early. It was WELL worth the money- neither of us had ever been fishing for Salmon before, and my dad grew up there.

    Side note - do you have white LED lights for your plate lights?

    We were hand feeding snails to bass and sunfish on Sunday at square lake near Stillwater (while scuba diving). I saw a huge ugly bullhead while I was at about 14 feet. Nothing huge, but there was a lot of hungry fish.

    That's always fun to do, I like sitting on the toilet down there and looking around like people shouldn't be watching me or something :laugh:

    Anyone been out lately? We've got a Walleye/Pan tournament on Waconia tonight. We found a couple small ones on Monday night, but with the cold front it might be a different story tonight. We'll see.

    I think that I am going to fix my boat rather than selling it, so I'll keep you posted as to how that goes. It's going to take a while. Here's what I'll have to do:
    1. Take the carbs in to get new ones to match them.
    2. Adjust the controls for throttle and gear select.
    3. Take out the casting platform, storage, steering front and rear seats.
    4. Rip out the rotting floor
    5. Install new flotation
    6. Put the floor back in
    7. Re-install all the stuff I took out of the inside of the boat.
    8. Build a life well and propper rod storage.
    9. Install waterproof hatches in the casting platform
    10. Install LED floor lights for night fishing
    11. Re-Wire the whole thing.
