Not that hard to do if you can stand on your head long enough. Water hose clamps and little wiring. Try Carlton at Calahan Marine in Lufkin. Does good work, but you will have to pay him !

Just won't fill. and power switch works sporadically. You can hear the pump operating but just won't fill all the way.

Check for blockages in the bilge around the pump housing or kinks in the hoses. Make sure you don't have a blockage in your fill/empty remote drain switch/plug.

OK, so it could be the following:
1) Hose blockage...to check you can run a coat hanger or similar through the lines 2) Your timer may be damaged 3) Your livewell pump may going out. Some have removable cartridges that will allow you open and see if there's any debris in them

The fish went straight under boat,no part of rod hit the boat. Thats wrong i didn't say that. It broke when the fish took a drive under boat. I admitted what happened. He mentioned it happens quite often when yak fishing trying to bring in fish that big. He has my address sounds like i should expect a new rod with out a "fee". I don't buy rods for the warranty, just want some that can handle the job. This rod failed, snapped right in half. Defective
