Great! I know that you'll enjoy it. I do recommend wearing a ball cap under the hood to keep the single section of the mesh that you look through away from your skin. That's the only part of the suit that they can bite through. Congrats again on all the new toys!

Thanks Flats, yes I agree on the ball cap, I always wear one day or night when fishing. This was my weak attempt in modelling.

Well, since my skeeter repellent got himself a skeeter suit, I'm gonna have to put my guard up. Lol

I went out on the Harris Chain to get some pics for an article that I'm working on. We found a few on square bills, big worms and pitching. Water was ripping in the canals. It was slow.

Replaced the trailer bunks today. Just used 2 2ft 2x4s, and didnt bother carpeting them this time. Took me all of 20 minutes since I was able to take my rope and raise the back of the boat off the trailer using the lift at work. Should be good just in case I get a bug up my but and decide to go out after work for the full moon next week.

Fixed the other problem from Sunday, the trolling motor handle. It came all the way out on me while on the water. So, I took the top apart, pulled the stop ring out, slid it over the handle shaft, wrapped duct tape around the inner end of the handle shaft so it stops the handle from going through the ring at the end. Who says you cant fix everything with duct tape. I know one thing is for sure, that handle aint gonna slide out on me again.

Since the full moon is upon us, and wife is going out of town tomorrow, I may get a bug up my butt and slide the boat out for a few hours after work.

Capt. BassinLou · August 15, 2019, 10:57:41 AM
