Your gonna be on the panhandle I see, they do a lot of redfishin, snook, etc. I'm sure you'll see some water boiling and birds working there too!

Unfortunately, that's what you have to do when species are overfished like our trout and reds. When you register your boat in Florida, it'll be one of the 947,000+ registerd boats in the state. We have now surpassed Mich. and Ca. This doesn't count the tourists that trailer their boats into Florida. You can also catch grouper, Snapper and Cobia to name a few. You can fish at Sebastian inlet and catch flounder up to 17 lbs. These are all great eatin inshore fish. Where we fish, any of these species are available year round. You can also snorkle for scallops, run a couple of crab traps and dive or snorkle for lobster. You're making a great move. Hurry up, we're waiting for you.

The cable should have a number on it if it is teleflex?? If not I would go from end to end.

With the addition of your jackplate, do you think it'll be any easier to remove and install?
