Right now he's on leave with the family.  He should be back in town Monday.  I decided to take Monday off and hit Lopez after the crowds lean out considerably.  Fixed the live well isue by disconnecting the front livewell and putting a 800 GPH Tsumani pump on it, works very well.  How's the trny circuit been going for you and Tom?

Well we won the tournament last Saturday, ABA at Cachuma, so we decided to fish the next day also an ABA at Cachuma.  We hit the same spots we did the day before but could only manage 4 fish for about 5.5lbs.  So towards the end of the day we head back to our first spot and fish it for the last hour.  With 10 minutes to go we put everything up and go to start the boat and NADA, switched to one of the trolling batteries and even more NADA, try the other battery and ZIP.  Now we only have 5 minutes to get back to the weigh-in.  So we call Chris, who has just trailered his boat and ask him to let the TD know that we aren't going to make it and also ask him to come out and give us a jump.  Chris comes out jumps us and back to the marina we go, we showed up about 20 minutes late and had enough weight to take 2nd, but you can't weigh em if you don't show up on time.  When we first showed up at the lake and was getting the boat ready I noticed that I had left the Master power on all night, and I guess that GPs antenna running all night was just enough to tweak the battery on the last start of the day.  Bummer!
