Boats finally up and running and it's a ****ing milkshake out there. Been going out everyday even with these winds to get a bite at boaters grill at the end of key biscayne...been eating there religiously trying to get these 10 hours of break in done. boats running like a dream even with the small prop in borrowing from my mechanic until mine comes in later this week.
Let's pray for some decent weather... when I was a little kid in NJ we would wear our undies inside out and salt in the window sill in hope for snow..If anyone has any good weather JuJu tricks please lmk! lololol

great trick for good weather is working a 9-5 Mon-Fri job which is when the weather is perfect, then drink too much on weekends ( even though those 5 straight days of 3knt winds now became 20knt) leaving you too shit faced to fish on your only days off <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin"> <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin"> <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">

Very sad. Never knew they even existed.

The Andre looks nice, never used one in the water, Riffe euro is my go to gun, teak is great and even my 120 with 3 bands gets blue water action

Looks like a mangrove, I used to fish EVERY night from peas in browsed to snook way down south.

Acadias are nice being AWD, they do lack some power though. Have you looked into Jeep? my commander has been great to me, also the grand cherokees have proven themselves through out the years.

I'd like to get a SUV. Tow the boat and such.
You looking to buy new or used Dan? Nothing beats a soccer mom van I dont care how mush testosterone you have pumping those things get the job done. -

Ive had both leather and cloth, currently have cloth on my daily and hate it. REAL leather with hold up fine and you wont get the damp humid smell when that water that got through the cloth heats up. I have a XL T shirt on the top portion of my seat and keep a towel or two for :bed: and getting in the car wet <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x"> Also what do you plan on getting? the WORSE "leather" comes on Ford's.
Heres my new beach/ outdoor vehicle. Its great, get home and pressure clean the inside and its GTG

You guys need to move out of that commi state....

Got out yesterday for a little bit solo. Went south of the Hillsborough Inlet in 40 feet of water. Conditions were great despite the SWesterly blow at 20 knots. Vis was 30 plus and no current at all. Got a couple of jacks and a hog. Saw a decent size black laying sideways on the bottom but it took off before I could get too it. Gags were everywhere, even in the shallows. Must have seen 5 of them in the 20-25 inch range. It was pretty nice out there.
Oh, and hand wrangled a couple of lobsters to boot. Didnt have a snare...
forgot my snare too and had to wrestle on suday <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x"> winds picked up at noon, viz was hazy offshore and in my usual spots, but inshore where its usually murky was clear. LOTS of grouper everywhere they must know season is closed
heres a bug from sunday

Great addition Dan, the ones sold locally suck and cost the same or more.

Btw 25 reffers to 25 inch lower unit drop from transom. The depth of the lower unit.

Al, those HPDI's are great motors, as for reliability I can say Yamaha has been great to me, a few buddies have new suzuki 4 strokes and they are great efficient motors, how ever they have also had a few small problems (shifter servo like to shit out ALOT) The question is do you want to stick with a 2stroke or go 4stroke. With the weight of those 25 dusky any single motor you put behind it is going to have to work hard. I recommend you check out the new E tecs, go to the Dusky booth at the boat show and have a talk with them, they are a authorized dealer and installer and have great prices on them, I just put a 60hp etec on a flats boat and picked up 8mph compared to a 2009 yami 70hp. Also remember if you do switch from yammi you will need new rigging which adds up quick $$$$
