As usual came home with smiles on. Headed out to the Western tip of the canyon Friday am. Made a bracket for the video camera that fits in a rod holder, but found that it would be better operated from a tower. Got some great video of the home-made green spreader paying off again. Had a few mutliples, last one had 6 out of 8 baits hit - beautiful site, to see nothing but splashes in your spread. Stayed within 1.5 miles of the tip all day.
The biggest contributer to the day was not a member of the crew. Thanks again Casey for the use of the boat.
Oddly we took Weekend Warrior out yesterday for fun, one engine shut down while running (volvo jackshaft 5.7 gxi). Each engine now runs fine on its own. When both are running they run rough, other times when one is running, and I try starting the other the first shuts down. Any ideas ? I'm sure it is a simple electrical gremlin, but not smart enough to figure this one out.

Awesome. Sorry to hear about the engine problems. All bites tuna or dolphin mixed in?

sounds like it could be fuel related too. But I didn't stay in a Holiday Inn express last night.

Gremlin fixed - bad connection on the rpm matching gauge - providing bad info to the tachs and engines. All fixed now.[smile][excited][excited][excited]
