I've done it lots of times but the fish were alive when I put them in the freezer. Don't think I'd do it with a fish that had been dead for a while. Fish deteriorates so quickly.

Saw a sign once that said "Wroms for Sale". It was on the corner of Hwy 42 and Dyas School Road in middle Ga.

Congress has the authority to tax wh**ever they want to tax so fear not, they'll get their money. The problem with the "climate control" theory is that even though they reduce emissions by limiting automotive and diesel fumes by forcing the switch to electric vehicle they will simply replace those emissions with those from the electricity generation facilities. Unless they pave half of the country with those inefficient photocell panels. Read up on the efficiency of those things as compared to f****l f**l or nuclear power generation. Nuclear power generation in a non-starter. There will never be another nuclear power plant built in this country. Meanwhile, the Chinese and the Indians are polluting the air more and more every day.

9.5 x 8 prop might work. Think I'll give it a try. THANKS GUYS!

I've even looked to see if somebody (Crane, Edelbrock) made a high performance cam for the engine. I've rebuilt several two stroke outboard engines in the past and lots of motorcycle engines both two stroke and four stroke. I'm sure there's a way to get more power out of the little pusher but nobody makes high-po parts for them as far as I know.

The prop is a 10" diameter by 7" pitch four bladed model. Since the boat isn't equipped with a tachometer I don't know how many RPM it's turning so I don't know if I should try more or less pitch. I can get a smaller diameter prop as well. But trying different props can get expensive. The Mercury Pro Kicker is actually designed to be a "kicker" motor for a sailboat. I know a two stroke motor would do better. I have a lot of experience with two strokers being a motorcycle mechanic. These four stroke engines just don't have what it takes and I don't like 'em. They're twice the size, twice the weight, and half the horsepower. But, they are cleaner.

Wd4ity, if you already have the motor trimmed in all the way, try a small "Doel-Fin "type stabilizer. I've seen them do wonders bringing the bow down. That and put as much of your movable weight up front as possible. I've got my 14ft deep V running pretty flat even though I fish alone.
That's the problem, I can't get the bow to lift. The Panfish has two seats, I sit in the front and from there I operate the throttle and steer with the stick. I fish and drive from the same seat. I'm 6'2' and weight 250 pounds. All the dry storage is up front as well so most of the weight is up front. It does have a 12 gallon fuel tank and two batteries in the aft section but it doesn't have the weight of a bigger engine The boat is designed to use an engine of between 20 & 40 hp. I can't use that much hp on the lake I fish. Ten horse limit. It's slow but I don't have to worry about jet ski's on that lake either. It does seem rather slow when my last boat would run 60 mph. The wake is terrible from the front end plowing. I've tried trimming the motor up but it just doesn't do it. Now I'm on a diet trying to get more speed out of my boat.

My little Tracker Panfish 16 has a 9.9 hp motor and only runs about 8 mph. Yeah, I know that sux. The lake I fish has a 10 hp limit on it. That little boat makes a bigger wake than the Ranger 364V / GT-150 I had years ago. The little motor just can't get the boat on plane.

Thats cause all the enlisted sailors are already taken so they start hitting on the Marines. But the Marines don't go for that stuff.

Yes, those Navy officers did like to dance with other guys didn't they. I always thought that was a little strange.

I still have one of those stoves and three of the lanterns. They work too! I've used the stove to melt lead to pour sinkers and bullets with as well.

So I literally live on a state line so I often find myself fishing in both states even in the same day, do I really need to buy a license for both states? I know legally you need a separate license but do you think I would really get in trouble for fishing in the wrong state when I’m minutes away from being in the one I have a license for?
Sorry if this is a weird/confusing question or if this is the wrong place to ask

Here in Georgia we don't have to buy an Alabama (or any adjacent state) license if we're fishing in a lake that is split between the two states. You have to have a license in the state where you launched the boat. This is only good in lakes that are split by the State lines. If we go deeper into Alabama (or any other state) you must have a license for that state. This law applies only to lakes that are split by the State line of Georgia and another state. Call the State Game and Fish Commission of both states and ask them. After all, they'll be the ones writing you the ticket if you aren't legal.

Hmmm! Learn something new everyday. Never heard of Bugs Bunny boots. We got jungle boots.

Looks like the boots the Air Force used to issue for cold climates. They nicknamed them "Mickey Mouse" boots. I only saw one pair but they looked a lot like the ones pictured. Marines got jungle boots.
