    So there was more wrong with my motor than I thought. There was line in the lower unit which forced them to order some parts. I’ll be out Wednesday to catch the trifecta! Hybrid, bass, then crappie!

    I talk to a guy Monday at Jefferson.
    He caught a limit of crappie. 12″ and better!

    Maybe I missed it, but what happened to your boat?

    I had an alarm going off at high speeds. The result was fishing line around the prop shaft that burned up seals and then scarred the prop shaft and bearings.

    That blows… I’ve had to rebuild mine twice, once for broken teeth on the reverse gear, and the other for a bent prop shaft from hitting what felt like a submarine at 65mph… luckily I had spare parts.
