jimcr Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Not the shake down cruise but close, still having trouble with the kicker I have and used only twice last year. I called up the biz that winterized it and they told me its not there problem. So I guess there not going to get any more biz from me. Anyhow went 1 for 3 today . 1 nice laker in the boat. had a few that didn't hook up well. most of the hook ups were in 50ft of water. The water coming out of the river was lets say chocolate brown but warmer, temps out in 50ft were about 35. Its going to get better I know but at least one of my new rods got bent. Tight Lines Jim
Rascal Trophy Fishing Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Nice laker Jim. Sorry to hear about the kicker, maybe fuel filter? New gas? Anyhow, that's no way to treat a customer, thanks for the pic..
jimbobber Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 nice fish Jim,hope you get the kicker figured out.
jimcr Posted April 10, 2011 Author Posted April 10, 2011 Russ has the same motor and told me about the gas and how they deal with it . right now I am certain that the float is sticking on the carb. So I will have to take it apart and see why. Yeah I put fresh gas in last week but I don't think they really ran out the fuel from the kicker. If it turns out not to be the fuel system it will be warranty from Mercury. I just don't want my boat down this year. WHat really sucks about it is the kicker only has maybe 8 hours on it. Had it out twice last year.
KJ pluggin Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 That's a bummer about the kicker issues Jim, nice job on the trout.
adrenalin Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Jim, atleast you didn't get skunked. The water is way to cold in milwaukee right now. The fish are piled up in the warm water.
upperlimits Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 nice job on the fish.I`ve been running amsoil gas treatment.cleared my motor right up.
