    I went out of Sturgeon Point yesterday. There was a lot of muddy, dirty water and floating debris. We found clear water about 5 miles out a little west of Pt. Albino. We trolled west, south, east. saw some fish on the graph at all depths but could only catch 3 silver bass. A terrible day on the lake. Many others were saying how bad the fishing was. All that I heard about was one here and one there.

    My plan was to go out of SP Friday after work. Do you think it may clear, or save my gas and worms?

    It will be clearer. But how much?? A lot depends on how the wind blows today. My thought is " anytime you can get out is good ".

    None of my business & jmo. but if you had trouble with 2 motors , it sounds like you may have a gas/fuel/water problem. Maybe check for water in gas tank , change filters, &/or gas/water separator filter. Also put some K-100 in tank. might help. Just a suggestion. Good luck!

    What does the k-100 do? I am currently having fuel issues also. She starts/runs great in the driveway, but when fired at the dock it putters out. Last 2 times this happened. After a bunch of fiddling, got her fired again both times and got into the throttle a bit, then no issues. Currently trying to figure it out.

    Ouch lol. Off topic it doesn't get hot yet does and is it a closed loop system for cooling? I would rebuild carbs and swap out fuel lines ethanol will eat those up in that yr for sure.
