DVL 10/22/2011 with FarmerJohn and KPN

FarmerJohn invited KPN and I to fish DVL with him last Saturday.

We heard that trout had been stocked so we started out by throwing big baits. With no action after a while we cruised by the buoy line to see what was going on then checked out a couple more spots.

We decided to head for a deep spot when trouble reared it's ugly head. The motor was quitting right after it started. Each time we started it it ran for a shorter time. John checked the filter and the pump. The pump was week and we thought that was the problem. He tried running it on a prime but the results were the same.

We called the ramp for a tow and they were headed out to help us.

Then he checked the spark. There was an area of sparks near the points. With a closer inspection he found a spring shorting the points to ground. He grabbed the spring with forceps and pulled out. Problem solved! The motor idled well and ran well at medium RPM but began to oscillate at high RPM. must be the vacuum advance spring.

Finally got back to fishing at about 9:30! We set up on KPNs deep spot and he started picking up a few fish pretty quick. I was soon to follow, then John joined in.

KPN picked up the most and biggest fish. John picked up a limit and I got just a couple more.

Here's my 94 quart cooler. A little later the lid began popping back open each time we put a fish in it.:LOL:

Congrats guys I am glad you guys killed them when KPN called me at 9am telling me there were hardly any fish on the finder at that dept I was wondering why such a late start? Thanks for helping my uncle out and letting him tie to the back of your boat he was not very good at listing lol he called me 3 times asking "Where's that spot again?".

It didn't look like they were catching much over near the pipes on Saturday.

That's nice to hear. We're working on getting back out there soon.


Nice haul boy's AGAIN.

Thank you Mike, That's high praise coming from guys who get it done as well. We do try but KPN is the one with the DVL contacts, FarmerJohn and I are just helping to reel them up.

It's too bad you couldn't make it but your name wouldn't have fit into your rhyme. We could have used help carrying the coolers though.

Did you catch a 10 in the duct that day? We had another cooler!

As a matter of fact I caught several out of the duct that day. No DD's that day though. many throw backs and some keepers. Schoolies to the biggest being 6lb. Kinda like you guys did. Honestly there are know fish in the duct.

My name does rhyme with you guys' name. In the proper pronunciation of my full name in the native language it rhymes exactly, lol. Next time I see you I will pronounce it for you.

You guys just killed them out there.
You did much better then we did!
We must be looking in the wrong spots.
How deep was the water where you were fishing?
We are going to be back at it on Sat.
Joe might be there on Fri as well.
