N II Deep

Great looking boat

N II DEEP hit the water for the first time last night. co-worker backed out on me last min. so I end up going solo. main goal was to test the shift cable adjustment. she kept stalling out last summer. so I followed the instructions here on the site. link Mike the insturctions worked great. no more stalling out coming into the dock.:grin::grin: so after all was working great, I deciede to go drop a coupe lines. setting lines in a boat this size by yourself sucks without AP. tried to stay in 20 foa while setting lines, by the time lines were set I was in 43 fow. one rigger, 2 color, & 3 color. moved back into 15-20 fow. nothing. spent time screwing with the FF did not mark anything until I was around 11 fow. tried a few different baits, but no luck came home with an empty box , but a great very calm night on the water. For those of you that don't know yet, I have taken a job, starting next week in Ohio. So I won't be able to be out in Lake MI as much as I would like to be. I will still be doing all but one of the WMFL events and will try to make as many of the Dirty Dog fun weekends as the wife will let. Good luck all

Hi Mark, I start the new job next week Monday. I'm really happy with the trees they did turn out really nice. I'll keep in touch as to when I will be back in town. I will still be coming home every weekend, as my family is staying here until my son is done with high school next June.

Good Job Mike & Crew.

welcome to the site,

I made up SS pins like Mike. have yet to try them out

you have to admire German Engineering. and I agree - the operator has some Major Brass...

Hi Randy, I have not used Hall's before but have heard both good and bad. Halls is based out of Muskegon for the main repair center, so they may have you take the boat to Muskegon. Halls would have the most exp. on Corba OMC as they are the Fourwinns dealership. I would help out but have never touched an OMC before. good luck and tell Rick I said Hi - he stopped by the house last night.

good job Mike & crew.

We did a similar trip about 5 years ago. and you are right it is the best vacation ever. one thing about the resorts "the wrist band rules":D we also chartered a boat out of Puerto Aventuras and had similar results. but still a great time. Only thing I do not reccomend is going an 16 hour bender the day before.:eek::eek::eek: we had a very Green crew, including myself. chummmmmmmm

Roger that. Done - and ready thanks for the list Frank and gang...

Welcome to the site Scott

looks good Mike

gj jim-sucker fishing on the muskegon @ maple island was a spring time favorite

Hi Mike, just tried the new player video quality and sound were very good. maybe to good. I have DSL here at home, and by it took a while for it to load. I will try again later to see if it was net traffic, and I will let you know

I setup a couple of 209's with 2 and 3 color for SWR. but they should also work great right now in the shallows. but with the lovely snow we are getting today it may be another week before the boat hits the water.

I'm head to the store to get a couple of steaks and will be firing up the grill today. thanks Jenny!

very nice job - great pic's

welcome to the site. nice boat you will enjoy it, & the boss might too.we fish Port Sheldon most of the time. get a copy of Ketting on kings, a fellow member here loaned me a copy - it is a good read & will give you many ideas on how to setup.

Welcome to the site,

get a room at Blue Chip Casino. right on the water, I have not stayed there, but have a buddy that stays a couple times a year and talks very highly of it. it is in Michigan City, IN. with the Casino right there you would have plenty to do. it would be less than 30 mins to your other cities. New Buffalo and St Joe - I don't know much about. Benton Harbor you want to steer clear of.

nice story - its great to get kids involved.

thanks Nick - that guy is fun to watch.

Glad you made it back safely. things are looking like I'm buying a new hat soon...

it will be ok, it won't be the first time the boat has seen snow. I'm still going to wait a couple of weeks before I flush the engine. but - I want to get out in a bad way...
