Hockey390 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Like several on the forum I'm trying to report my outings good or bad this year. So with that said..Finally got the boat fully prepped yesterday with the finishing touches. Fish hawk transducer, new tie downs and mounting rod trees were on the to do list going into the day. Had a buddy come along got to Holland launch about 6PM and let her loose with plans to put some fuel in the tanks on the way out. To my displeasure found out the gas docks close early this time of year. *DOH*!!Motored over to Eldean's with the kicker to conserve fuel and found the same thing, probably should have called first..Not enough gas in the tank to risk going out so I threw a couple long lined body baits in the water and "fished" on my way back to the launch. Tangled lines a couple times going 0-0 in my short stint. Tested all my new gear though and all was working well except my new fish hawk since I failed to install batteries in the probe. *DOH*!!x2Next time will be better, at least I got the boat wet and also found out two important points for the future. Batteries (and spares) plus know gas dock hours before making assumptions.
