Did everything in February, new impeller, trailer hub oil replace, lower unit oil change, batteries, new seastar seals and hydraulic bleed which was a pain in the arse and took a whole saturday. Just waiting for next week...

had to send the new force back for a replacement, thing went nuts first time out and broke itself software glitch made it spin back and forth on full power. so far so good on the customer service.

worked perfect after the update, decided to do it now because of the rain this week.

Water and weather are fine.

I upgraded my fuel tanks with 10 gallons of gas and 1 oz of ring free in each.

Installing new battery straps, a dual port USB charger and vacuuming the boat... if gas prices keep dropping, may fill up my tanks

Got my tackle and the rest of my stuff pared down and organized but still have some to do.

My father in law passed away on Monday and his funeral was Wednesday. frown

My mother in law passed away early Saturday morning and her funeral will be Tuesday. frown

My plans were to fish everyday starting yesterday through next weekend but life happens so plans have been adjusted.

I really need to replace the carpet but I surely don't want to. Faced with the choice of doing it myself for $140 or paying someone $1000 to do it.

Seems that changing carpet is such a pain in the butt, the shops don't even want to do it. Must be why they charge so much...

Throwing out a bunch of old lures, tackle boxes, reels that I've saved for parts, etc. Cleaning out the garage in preparation for our upcoming move to Ardmore, Ok. A whole lot closer to Texas lakes.
