Who went out on their boats this weekend?

Ok guys. A quick survey of the membership. Who went out of their boats? Where did you go and what did you do?

We went out on Lake Michigan Saturday out of New Buffalo, MI. My wife and I and our 4 small kids. We anchored in 3 feet of water and let the kids play up on the beach. We then went perch fishing. Caught about a half dozen fish. All had a great time.

I bought a Navionics card for my Lowrance combo GPS and sonar. Very cool for the level of detail.

Awesome day to be on the water.

Not me. :'(
Working nights and it was still pretty choppy out.

Not me either....had a club tourney and me and my partner called it off. I told him that after looking at conditions I thought it would be too rough.

Everyone in the club reported yesterday and today that they got beat to death.

Good call on my part. ;D


If things look ok, I think we are gonna do a full moon nighttime snappa trip next weekend. 8)

my weekend consists of thursday and friday and your dam right i got out both days.
took my pop fluke fishing in jones beach inlet on thursday and the best thing we caught all day was a real quality fish net that went floating by.
friday the boss took the kids to the beach in the morning so we went out in the evening... ran into a blitz and threw hopkins at two to four pound bluefish for a little while. then we took a nice cruise and had some sammiches.
perfect weekend.

Not I, even though the doctor gave me the ok Thursday. Helped my oldest boy move. What combo Lowrance do you have. I bought the 339c but then I had my foot operated on and have not yet installed it. Billy Mc ;D

I spent three hours on the boat today, in the yard. Everything is clean and ready to go. Battery is topped off, cabin is clean, and tackle is organized. I fiddled with my gas gauge for a few minutes but it still doesn't work. Remembered that my sending unit has a gauge built into the sender. Kinda neat and confirmed what my Navman said, 1/2 tank left. Hope to get on them one night this week.

Returned from Cape Cod on Saturday, spent Sunday cutting grass & scraping paint. No boating. I have this week off with family coming for a visit. Plan on hitting Lake O & the St. Lawrence a couple times this week.

i rebuilt 4 of my carbs. reinstalled fuel tank and hatch cover.and removed snaps for cover on sides of boat. removed seats and guages and kicker bracket. just gettin her ready for paint next weekend. i did go wade fishin in front of the college this mornin. trout started biting at daylight, just about when the lightning started. it was calm and cool with about 5 mph winds out of the south. was having fun catching skoolies on topwater pup, but aint worth dying over. 5 keepers in about 20 minutes. none worth braggin over. was thinkin bout my boat the whole time, if that counts.

2 hours of cleaning boat. Got the minnow pot over and it is loaded. Picked up a couple of peelers in crab pots also. Finally got boat back on friday after being at the marina for repair for two more weeks. Blown starter, alternator and some wiring had to be replaced? Glad it was them and not me. All last week was 101+. Off Wed and will go no matter what. Brother picked up on a good strike off 4th island at Bay Bridge tunnel and off of cape Henry. Limited out on flukes and spades. LOaded the boat wiith 20" croakers,2.5 to 4 lbs. Good Eats. :D
