Hi Sayo I had a friend that went up there 2 weeks ago he used powerbait, lures and local worms from the servo at the turn off and got nothing. He said that others there got nothing except 1 guy on the shore picked up 1 rainbow. I hope that helps. Good luck up there and have fun. Stuball

Support your motor firm when travelling to the water it will take the stress out of the transom (especially fibreglass) from humps and bumps on the road.

If you want or need a cheap version used liquid electrical tape it covers all bare cables and switches, You can even do both ends of a fuse just paint on with the fuse connected. I was very suprised how well it works. can work with cars as well.

Hi Idolz Yeah mate I know a guy please PM for details.

Hi welcome The Furuno LS4100 is a good cheap fishing sounder.

DEFINTLY this time im camping i dont care how cold or how old i am lol. Did you know its not the whether it the clothes you wear. come on guys lets make it happen

Hi Kingfisherman I agree it sounds like fuel but when was the last time you changed the plugs they may look good but even in my lawnmower they looked good but it ran really well afterwoods to that was after cleaning carby. Stuball

God on on Ya Smitty Braving these winds in the the good georges i thought something different had to come out of the water with this whether. Ill be back on the water next week the boats ready after a lenghty delay. Stuball

Hi kingfishercam Its Funny you talk about that. Ive just fitted a 1961 40 evinrude i got off blah blah poop and it started first go but it kept backfiring a bit. i talked to a at home mechanic he said how to fix it. and i asked him about fuel water seperator he said my motor is to small and unnessassary. As it didnt work what he said And im still learning about boat motors, but i know cars. I fitted 2 new points and condensors and cleaned out the carby which was in excellent condition and fitted a seperator anyway.I went to a Ray at fine tune marine Prestons as he was the only person that would touch an old motor,He got it going in no time and tuned it well. He said that is a great idea to fit the seperator and change the filter when i service the motor which will be the same time i change my wheel bearings. The guy at BCF where i bought it said that water builds up in the fuel tank as it is storage. my concern was if the pump could handle it and just last week i got it on the water i ran it first straight from the fuel tank cause i knew it would work, as i tuned it at high speed, then i connected the seperator i ran it for 45 mins at full speed not only am i happy as larry that my motor is cool but the seperator worked well and did not miss a beat. i had a 35 Johnson previous the head gasket blew after lots of work in a year and a half. if it was me with your 25 i would fit it knowing what i have learnt till now. Kind Regards Stuball

Glad you got the bugger good stuff. Ive only started going to Port hacking not long ago hopeing to find a squid spot to try for my first kingy .one day it will come have to wait a little longer now my head gasket blew . So im rebuilding my first outboard. very good at port hacking though, cant wait to get back there.

Hi burnsie I have a 35 Johnson Seahorse Ive had it for about 2 years its my first boat to. I have always used Shell 2 stroke marine oil and i mix 50-1 ratio that 100mls to every 5 litres and its been a great motor after i fixed the bodgy work from the previous owner which caused me to get reco gearbox and get proper linkages and it hasn`t missed a beat yet. touch wood. Hope that helps good luck with it. Stuball
