thx to cabellas i got a new tm put on on saturday. so i made it to the lake sunday. it was beauty eh. got 9 threw 2 back cuz just to little. on one poll i ran a 1/8 red bullet sinker to three way swiv. on top a floating lime/chart. jig with a little lime spin n glo in front, a jd triple threat and a gulp waxie tip. on the bottom a 1/16 chart roadrunner with bbc and minnow tip. 5 on the floater 0 on the roadrunner. on the other side i had a 1/16th lime/chart red hook jig on a little clip spinner and a yum babybeave in jd. minnow tipped 3 waxie tipped 2. none of size though. most in 15 ft-16.
the new tm has ipilot, although i didnt use the tracking much as i basically had no track to follow, the cruise control and auto sterring was like i retired. usually im dancing on the footpedal and the cable in the way and the footpedal ripping up my carpet, all gone. now im cruzin with my feet up im walking around the boat its all good. its like having sulu at the helm. worth every dime.
