Went out last night for the third time in my boat. The first time we went out in begining of May. We got skunked. I think because we were going to fast. I coundn't get her to troll under 3.8 The motor would spit and sputter if I went much lower than that. I think I had a little water in the gas . The Second time I went out on Mothers day. We went 8 for 9. My friend let me borrow some buckets. ( Thanks Jimmy) That helped alot. Slowed me down to 2.75 to the 3 range. Got some fresh gas and she purr like a kitty. The big fish was 12.5# that I got . Thats the picture for my avitar.

Third trip : So we let docks around 3 pm. Headed noth to tunnel park went out to the 130 s went on a south south west troll. My husband got me some trolling bags for my birthday. Those things are the cats meow. slow me down to 1.5 I couldn't believe it. I ran at 2.6 SOG we went 1 for 2. Both on the down riggers. around 87 down. My sixteen year old son (his first trip out) got a 14# on a silver streak Kevorkian that he gave me as a present. Second one came on a JP SLAMMER HAPPY HIPPY. That we sadly lost .

So my son broke my big fish record and got the only fish. But it was an awesome night on the lake

Thank you guys for all your post. They are greatly appreciated. They really help a newbie like me. It gives me a chance to get on the fish. Since I have joined this site I have learned so much. So thank you one and all.
