There is another club having a tournament at the same time we are they will have about 15 to 17 boats just to give everyone a heads up. you may want to get there early.

Will they be launching at the other landing? I didn't think they would schedule 2 tournaments out of the same landing.

If they are launching out of Raleigh Ryan then they have issued 3 permits for that one landing on the same day cause I have one in hand for the club that we were trying to get started.

Thats pretty goofy of them. I can understand two maybe on the same day as long as the predicted number of boats doesn't take up over 70% of the parking.

I agree. Of course mine won't be used but they don't know that. If we would have fished ours then it sure would have been crowded.

I'm pretty sure they dont have a permit.

Well that sucks. Try to do everything legit and then get screwed at the ramp. Between that and the weather I might just have to stay in the truck until about 12 or so

Maybe the ranger will show up and check everyone.

We can probably arrange that!

JSB · « **Reply #9 on:** March 03, 2008, 03:58:11 PM »

Call him Troy!!!

TMcGee · « **Reply #10 on:** March 03, 2008, 04:53:22 PM »

I'll see if he's available! If we are overcrowded then I will call. If we had a 50 boat turn out then it would definately be a problem. I don't think we have to worry about that yet.

I posted earlier that I heard it took 17 1/2 lbs to win Sat. 3/1. Actually it took 21.82lbs to win. Second was 11.17 lbs.

Wow! 5 fish right?

JSB · « **Reply #13 on:** March 04, 2008, 10:51:49 AM »

That is correct. 5 fish and he fished by himself.

Have you found out anything about yalls boat injuries yet. Hopefully the t-motor was just a battery/connection problem and something minor with the big-gun!

Just to let everyone know, my problem is apparently fixed. My cranking battery was way undersized for my motor. I picked up another battery today and installed it in the boat and it is like a different motor. The old battery only had 400 cold cranking amps and it needs at least 800 cca. My new one has 875 cca and it makes a tremendous difference.

Hmm, that's weird. It seems they'd have a big enough battery in it!, it being new. I guess that couldn't be too good in the customer relations department, I mean, even if you upgraded HP, they ought to have known better and adjusted for that.

Glad you got it figured out.

Leave us a few for Vi-anna here!

JSB · « **Reply #18 on:** March 15, 2008, 07:32:22 PM »

Tried the new battery out today on the water and it has fixed the problem. I guess they thought a cranking battery is cranking battery.

I plan on going to gainesville tuesday and I'll give a report when I get back.
