1mainiac Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Ok we decided to go out one last time I was going to put it in storage this afternoon when a friend asked me if we could fish one more time. Since I had the day off anyhow the answer was yes. Made a late morning start left the dock around 9am and ran out to 200 south and set lines had first fish in the box 10 min later a nice 2 yr old King then another shortly after that. Blue and green was the preferred colors 3rd fish came about 3 min later and we picked away til 1pm going 8 for 8 decided to pull lines and run in found two shaker lakers which went back making it 10 for 10 with 2 throwbacks. Then the motor began misbehaving and quit. So yep I got towed in again. No big deal the coil died and took out the points with it. I am replacing the engine wiring harness this winter and converting it to a Mercruiser system. I have had it with the OMC issues I like the drive but the electrical problems have to go.

rainman67 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Were you fishing out of muskegon? I think it was maybe you that i towed in part way, and then the coast guard finally came out and took over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
