I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

wanna race!?

I don't know yet. I'm still trying to figure out just how fast it will go. Something tells me you're going to pick on me at Portage. I guess I better do a cam swap and some port work real quick.

lol. mine's no speed demon. i got the plate where i want it finally and am getting 72. I think i could squeak out 1 more mph but i don't want to go up anymore as the bow position is just right now.  Plus i'll have Cy and all his crap so i'll keep my fingers crossed for 65 at portage :)

I'm still tuning. The thing I don't like is my trim gage. It only works for the low speed pump. Once you hit the high speed trim, you have to drive by the tach, speedometer, and water pressure gage. I can't look down and have a fast reference point of how high I'm trimmed. You just keep going up, and it keeps pulling. The old Skeeter was easier to drive to go fast for sure, but there's no comparison between motors.

Drive it by the seat of your pants, tach, and the GPS speed.  Trim gauges are for novices.  ;)

That Yama Show is bad! Nice rig! I could be real happy with that!

I don't have to look at the gps.  The digital speedometer is right on with it!  It's amazing!  It took me a little while to get the feel of my last one, so I'm sure next year will be bad. I won't have too much seat time this year. Almost time for snow. This boat WILL NOT be pulled in the snow. We will see how fast you get it to go next weekend.

So you're saying that we're using my boat once it snows?   ;D

Yep. If you are keeping it out. I wish I had my old Bass Tracker.  That would be so perfect for fall and winter fishing.

Not a week goes by that I don't wish I still had my old Tracker!
