    The Mothball Fleet

    With the current state of affairs, beggars can’t be choosers. I called Benicia Bait on Friday at 3:15pm and they said they had just got a small delivery of grass shrimp but they were closing at 4:00. I jumped in my Jeep and flew over there and they would only sell me a 1/4lb. They had no ghost...

    Fished through the night. Propane Buddy heater came in handy. Goth this around 6:00am.

    Spoke with Richmond Marina launch and it is currently open but she recommended calling the day before you plan to launch to confirm it will be open. End of days is upon us when you can’t go fishing!

    Not good, Richmond marina was open on Saturday. Plan to head back out next Saturday, hope it remains open.

    The Mothball Fleet

    One on the right is a Seeker 270 and the other a Calstar 270. The Seeker has a much softer tip for the light Dino bites. I like the honey blanks, easier to see when fishing at night.

    Pyramid Lake

    Lee, not only is that lake beautiful, you’ve figured out how to pull the trout out of it. Awesome fishery. Just a bit envious. Went out on Saturday and scratched just one keeper halibut. Had fun, but haven’t figured out the trolling with hoochies. Did find my next project though. Factory...

    I was looking at the Mirage Plus, 48-19838 15P (Thunderbolt is early model but same prop) as well as the ENERTIA STAINLESS STEEL 15 X 15 RH, 48-8M0095888. Both are available for use with the Yamaha 4.2L with a Flo-Torq-Hub kit...

    New Wire Marine Panel

    Dielectric grease is real good for install (I get NO-OX-ID at work). Maintenance, I use a shot of the D5 Aerosol.

    The Mothball Fleet

    Here’s a view of the famous Suisun Bay Mothball Fleet from the Grady. There were over 340 ships at anchor and up until 9 years ago, the Battleship Iowa was being stored here. It was towed to San Diego to become a museum. Today, there are 6 ships remaining. Earlier days of the Mothball Fleet...

    New Wire Marine Panel

    Looks good. I’m assuming you are gonna use the existing harness? I found corrosion on my faston connectors and cut most off and recrimped them. As many complaints as I’ve heard regarding GW wiring. I was pretty happy with it considering it’s a 20yo boat. The DC busses were worn out and...

    Hard top capacity?

    I had assumed there were no/low issues with the amount towers I’ve seen on the hardtops, just doesn’t seem like two or three large guys moving around up there is good for a structure not designed for it.

    Potato Chip, Bread, Snack, Gear Holder

    I’ve got more rods than I care to admit and it would be impossible to fish them all at the same time. Sometimes carry 10 or 12 rods onboard but wouldn’t have lines out on all. The idea is to be able to match the hatch so to speak, kinda like your potato chip holder.;)
