    Forcast

    Looks pretty good temp wise! 70's and sunny is nice!!! Weather report shows wind as about 10mph northwest or north/northwest each day... not sure what that will get us.... I am not that familiar with how winds effect the lake yet.

    hydrolocking

    So I figured I would start a thread for everyones benefit and because I didnt know the answer myself... Hydrolocking is when you suck in enough water that the engine cannot turn over because the piston cant compress water because water cannot be compressed. Can DEEP stabs result in that...

    Location

    I think it should be necessary to list your city, state under your name... would be very helpful for 3 reasons.... 1) if someone has a problem we can know who is close that might be able to help them 2) if selling something there wont be 100 people asking for location 3) My favorite...
