We had an epic day one day we found some big fluke. The first one we caught was 13 lb followed up by a 7 pounder and several 6 and 5 lb fat fish. It was one of those epic days we made 3 drifts. When I went to start the motors one of my starters broke and I started my way home which took over an hour. I can't believe I had to leave the best fluke fishing day of my life. Can't wait for next year fluke season closed yesterday. Please share what you have done I would love to read people's Great Moments. My next post to be about people sticking fishing hooks in their hands and head. But let's get through this one first LOL.

What ended up being the problem with the starter?
And what kind of motor.
If you don't mind sharing.
Nice catch by the way.

The last guy who owned it put one of those cheap Asian built starters in my Yamaha 150. The whole shaft just snapped in half right below the gear. Cheap pot metal . Now both of my motors have nice high quality starters I should never have that issue for a while. Thank you for the great question.

Thank you for the nice catch also. Yeah you have those epic days once in awhile. Last week I caught for Blue Fish over 16 pounds my biggest one was 17.8 lbs . I'm trying to get my 6-pack license so I can do Charters and I've been really working on all aspects of my game. I've been fishing since I can remember my mom and dad own a hunting fishing tackle shop for 18 years of my life. I was fortunate enough to go out west and do some elk hunting as a guide I've also guided salmon in Upstate New York. But as we get older we slow down and fishing from a boat is not a bad thing. I like to teach people and help them. It looks like your regular post it here so I feel the same for you. One day I'll get up there in post. But life is very busy. Come join us next summer for some good fluke fishing.

Late May 2019. Big Hole River, Montana. 3 days total, 1st day on a small pond where I caught several small rainbows and a 22 inch, 4 pound Brown on flies. 2nd and 3rd days fully guided float on the river, I caught 20 rainbows, 18 Brookies and 16 Browns, again all on flies. This trip was one of the best fishing trips I have ever been on, which includes multi day tuna trips.

Sounds like alot of fun floating is a great way to enjoy the wonderful world we live in. Tuna fishing on the banks is more like work. Kayak fishing schoolies is the new float tube.

Me thinks anytime I’ve caught something that is a keeper! Be safe and stay healthy.
