$1000 fishing boat.

Really old,fiberglass 14 foot. I think jesus was the first owner. The motor is circa 60's i think (35 hp), but it runs great.

It's a piece of shit in the grand scheme of things , but not too bad for a first boat. It just needs a name now.

Even if it only lasts one more season , i'll still get my moneys worth. Can't wait to buy a propper ski boat one day.

It ran perfect all weekend. If the motor craps out...i'll get a new one. I don't expect much out of it for what I paid.

Congrads, that's fucking sweet! Now it's off to get some sockeye for you.

Sockeye in Etown???

Not likely. Mostly fish for walleye , and whitefish in the winter. Catch the odd pike , because they'll go for anything. I caught a Burbot (ling) the other day. What an ugly fish ...kind of looks like an eel.

You should take it out to Sylvan if the weather is still nice.

Yeah , this weekend is going to be nice...but sylvan is way too busy. The fishing isn't that great either. Sylvan is getting played, i've spent way too much time there. How do you know what about Sylavan lake?

fishing for pike/walleye is NG. so much fight right away then they die. lol. You need to head to the fountains and fish for trout... they have fight, maybe not tons, but at least the scenery is nicer.
