GLF

I looked out the back window of the house this morning and saw this tom strutting in the woods. It wont be long now for some of you. I used a cheap tripod, this is why it jerks when I tried to move it. AVPxoQa1wcg

I just increased the size limit for supporting members galleries. Supporting members are now allowed to upload 10mb worth of photos.

I just increased the size of the regular members gallery size limit. Everyone now can upload 5mb of photos.

I hooked up the muffs to each engine and fired them up today! Almost felt like I was sitting at the dock ready to go fishing. Then I opened my eyes and realized I was still in storage. Anyways....I replaced one of my altenators that was putting out 18v +. When I started the engine with the new alternator.....18v + again. When I turn the key on, it registers around 16 volts. Then when I start the engine, it pegs the gauge. I unhooked the wires to the starter last year because I had to pull the engine to change the engine coupler. Is it possible I dont have something hooked up correctly, and this is what is causing my excessive charging, or did I get a new bad altenator? Once I resolve this issue, GLF is going in the water! Here fishy, fishy, fishy.....

I got er done today fellas! I brought my electrical meter so I could check the voltages. Everything was working correctly, except the trim was still not working. So....I took the trim motor apart. All of the brushes were stuck in the brush housings. I freed up the brushes, cleaned them and the commutator, and put it back together. Hit the trim switch and away it went. I also set the new trim sendors and cut off switch.

WTG guys. Ummmmm fresh coho for dinner!

WTG Jason! I wish I was fishing today. Everything is smoking hot at the southern ports on Lake Michigan.

WTG Adam, Chris, Phil, and Terry! I wish I could have made it.

Peewwww! Remember the beaches in the 70's with all the dead alewives. When you see that many fish washed up on a beach, makes you wonder how many fish are actually in each lake. Think of how many fish are in each Great Lake and what the shoreline would look like if they all died and washed ashore.

Anyone else want to fish this?

2008 Stinger Challengers GLF - I am planning on being there Priority1 tltorrice jWheeler tripanic

I am slipping at Bluffton Bay this year. I am not planning on putting my boat in till around the 15th. All you are doing is teasing me. Good luck!

Welcome aboard Jimmy! What lake do you normally fish? Eveyone loves to look at pictures of big fish. Do you have any pictures of any BIG fish that you caught? If you need anything, let out a yell! Mike

Usually the farmers do not start planting the fields till May. When they are ready, I will give you and your crew a call. Sounds like you had a blast! I cant wait to see the pictures!

Check out all of these dead gizzard. Most of them are in the 12-15" range.

I know it was not a mallard or a wood duck. It was brown, had a duck bill, and had webbed feet.

This is my first fishing video with my new video camera. I could not get the camera to zoom out far enough. It lacks a lot of footage from our trip. 2j9IiueqpDU

What about perch?

Its beginning to look like a porcupine.

I heard they got a few coho out of South Haven last weekend.

Nice job Glen! Were you in the white and blue fiberglass boat?

Actually we went 11 for 12 today. He left out the duck we caught. Some how the duck got wrapped up in one of the lines and took out our whole spread on one side of the boat. What a mess! The duck was released and flew away. It sure beat being at work today! Thanks for the trip Terry!

Dan, They need to register here and sign up in this thread. I will send them a pm with the information on how to pay.
